Metal Angels [ N. H ]

chapter three

Niall Horan

Friday night rolled around, finally. I made my way to last period, running into Tatum along my journey. I jumped as she appeared, I jolted for a split second, causing her to chuckle. "Hey!" She greeted. My brows furrowed for a confused. "Hello?"

"Are you busy tomorrow?" She asked, honestly it was surprising she was talking to me. But, her and Harry do have a thing going, she's cool so I approve, just never expected her to try and talk to me or our other friends. "Why?" She was now walking beside on my right. "I'm throwing a party, Harry is attending so you won't be alone.." She had a hopeful smile, "I'll see what I can do." I lied, knowing I'd be busy.

She clapped happily, with excitement. "Plus, my girl will be there. Alexis." She added, I began to tap my foot getting closer to english class. Which my mind went somewhere else, for a moment as Tatum mentioned Alex. She was cute, but honestly I had other stuff to worry about. I now played stupid, we were too different and what even made her think I liked her that way or cared if she went or not.
That was when I noticed Tatum's neck, this girl was wearing the necklace we needed. So maybe I do need to attend that party.

Sorta confused as to why Harry never mentioned or brought up that she had the necklace the whole damn time. Unless, that was part of the task for some stupid reason, or maybe he had no idea as well, either way it was weird. My attention was brought back up to her eyes as I stopped glancing down.

"Oh, that's cool.." My voice trailed off. We turned the corner into class as Alexis was already there. She was beautiful, reading away like always, don't think I have ever seen her not read or talk that much. I was shocked when she spoke to me. The girl looked up meeting my gaze along with Tatum, she closed her book as her friend approached with a smile.

I took my usual seat in the back of the room, taking my jacket off and hanging it on the back of my chair.
Mr. Martin walked in and class started, he began to talk about a new novel we were gonna read. 'To kill a mocking bird'  he counted the desks and gave out the number of books of there were people. I took it from the guy in front of me and skimmed through it quickly.

"Begin reading the first few chapters and we'll discuss as a class." The male spoke once again, I flipped it over and read the back to know more about what I was getting myself into since he never cared to explain the plot.
Every time I tried to start a sentence my mind would go elsewhere, other stuff crept up slowly which constantly made me lose my place. Glancing up a head my eyes met the side profile of Alex, as she focused on her book, I watched as she tucked her hair behind her ear, turning the page.

I extended my arms in the air, stretching to shake my mind off of her. All I could think about right now was how Todd knew who killed my father, peeking up at the teacher who was now distracted, I pulled my phone out along with my earbuds and played music as I finally started the book, reading to myself as the class grew loud.

An hour passed, and the four of us made out way back to the bar to get ready to steal some necklace my dads friend needed. "Where's Harry?" He questioned, I reached behind to scratch my neck, before responding. "He went over to a friend's house." Louis answered, before I could. Todd nodded and proceed to go over the plan, "So..."

He pulled out a photo of the necklace that was needed back, and that was when my eyes shot up to Liam, and Louis. "What?" The older male stopped as he caught on as to why we were staring at one another. "You guys know where it is?" Liam nodded. "The owner of it is having a party tonight." I added, the place I exactly did not what to go to. Yes, we could just message Harry and get it over with. "Looks like you three need to get ready then."

School ended, and it was party time. The thing I hated most. I enjoyed it in the beginning, but now its just boring to me, and the same stuff happends each and every time.
Tatum dropped me off at my place so I could get ready, which wasn't long at all. I placed on some fishnet stocking, with boots and a short black skin tight dress with long sleeves. Before applying just a little bit of makeup.
