Peyton's POV
"Well I guess what I'm trying to say is that, I want you to go with me. Will you Peyton go on a ..uh date with me?" I sat there taking it all in. I couldn't believe this was happening. I thought he was into Aria.
"I-I Harry. Yes ill go with you!" I said jumping up and down.
"Great!! Ill pick you up Saturday at 6:30?" He asked.
"Sounds good to me!" I said while fiddling with my hair.
"Alright see you then babe!" I hung up the phone. I sat down trying to relive the moment that just happened. I was going on a date with Harry Styles. My crush since we moved here. I was still smiling when Aria walked in with bags from Nandos. I ran up to her and grabbed the food.
Aria's POV
"Well someone is a little excited." I said to Peyton while she grabbed the bag.
"I've been waiting for food!" She said. We both got chicken. We started eating. I looked over at Peyton who was almost done with her food.
"God, your such a pig!" I said to her. She rolled her eyes and kept eating. I got up and put my food in the fridge.
"I'm going to sleep, it's been a really long day." I said quietly to her.
"Alright night, love you." We always said that to each other before going to sleep.
"Love you too." I walked down the hall and went to the bathroom. I was brushing my teeth when I remembered the dream I had about Zayn. Was I falling for two boys? No I wasn't. But I knew deep down inside I was. I walked into my room and sank down into the bed closing my eyes and falling asleep, greeting away from reality. It was Saturday morning. I looked out of the window and saw it was snowing. I ran out of the room and went into Peyton's room.
"Peyton wake up!!! It's snowing!" I screamed in her face. London was so weird. It was snowing in June. She rubbed her eyes and was giving me the death stare. I jumped on her bed.
"Get up! It's snowing! Lets go!!!" I said to her.
"Okay fine. God you act like a such a child sometimes!" She said walking into the bathroom. It was true. I was acting like a kid on Christmas morning who was waking up their parents. Too bad my mom is dead and my dad isn't even a dad. I ignored my thoughts and got dressed. I brushed my teeth and hair. I grabbed Peyton and ran out of the door with her. They're we're kids everywhere playing in the snow.
"Since we're out here let's go check the mail." I said to Peyton who picked at her boots. I opened up the mailbox and saw 2 envelopes from Manchester. This was the moment of truth. We'd be finding out if we had gotten accepted to the college of our dreams. We opened up the college applications that we had once filled out. We read them. Peyton started screaming and that's when I knew she had been accepted. I continued to read over mine and I just dropped the envelope on the ground.
"Aria, what happened?! Did you get accepted?!" She asked over and over again. I smiled and gave her a huge hug. She jumped up and rapped her legs around me. She already knew.
"Let's go shopping!!!" We got in the car and headed toward the store.
"I mean, God," Peyton said, stopping in front of a huge display of bed sheets, "who knows the difference between a duvet and a comforter?" We were in Linens Ect., armed with Peyton's mom's gold card, the list of items that the university suggested for all incoming freshmen,
"A duvet," I told her stopping to eye a stack of thick purple towels, "is a cover for a comforter, usually a down comforter. And a comforter is just a glorified quilt." She crossed her eyes at me, sighed, and pushed some hair out of her face.
"I'm supposed to get a comforter in a purple/pink color," she said reading off the list.
"And sheets to match. And a bed ruffle whatever the hell that is."
"It goes around the base of the bed," I explained. "To cover the legs and provide a sort of color continuity, all the way to the floor." She looked at me, eyebrows raised.
"Color continuity?"
"My mother bought a new bedroom suit a few years back," it hurt to even say her name. "I got an entire education in tread count. Peyton, maybe we shouldn't do this today."
"We have too," she grumbled, grabbing a pack of sheets-the wrong size, and bright red-off a nearby shelf and tossing them into the cart. I picked up the red sheets and put them back on the shelf while she pouted around the toothbrush holders, completely unenthused.
"Peyton, is this really how you want to start college? With a totally shit attitude?" She rolled her eyes. We were both exhausted. It was June 15th, in two months, give or take a few days, I would be packing up my two suitcases and my laptop and heading to the train station, and 3 hours later I would arrive in Bradford, England to begin my life with my bestfriend at Manchester, there was so little written between now and then; even the day we left was hardly marked, except for a simple circle with the lipstick I'd done myself, as if it was a big deal only to me.
"Wait what time is it?!" Peyton asked.
"It's 5:58" I said.
"We have to go home now!" She said rushing out to the car.
"Why?" I said finishing putting the rest of the bags in the trunk.
"I-I have a date with Harry. Ill explain later but he's picking me up at 6:30!" We rushed home and I helped her get ready. We curled her hair and she wore jeans and a turquoise shirt. I grabbed her sweater. She put her boots on and grabbed her phone.
"Thanks for everything, Aria. Ill see you later." She said. We heard a knock on the door. It was 6:30. He was right on time. I opened the door and saw cheeky harry smiling. He saw me and then his face went pale.
"It's ok I understand. Have fun guys!" I said and saw him smile. Just then Peyton gave me a hug.
"Wow you look gorgeous!" Harry said to Peyton. They walked out and I shut the door behind me. I sat down then heard a knock at the door. I figured it was Peyton forgetting something, but when I opened the door I was shocked to see...
