Complicated

Chapter 1

I sat with my hand laced with hers, her warm pink skin turning red as I laughed. Louis Tomlinson, the ass, had made the most embarrassing joke about her. And of course everyone at the table had laughed. Her cheeks glowed a dark crimson making me laugh. My lips found the skin of her cheek, grazing the skin and causing another blush. Her skin always seemed to amaze me, so clean and so clear, yet she complained about her acne problems when she had no such problem. I loved her more than life itself, and it only strengthened every day.

Kelsey was the first person I had brought to meet the lads. She was the first person to meet my parents, and the first person to take something no one had ever taken from me. She was the first girl to steal my heart, and I hoped for her to be the only girl who had it.

My eyes wandered across the table, completely in awe at the sight around me. Lou sat with El playfully teasing her with his lips, and it was the sweetest thing, seeing them two. Liam and Dani sat across from us, Dani still laughing from the horrible joke Louis had made. It was great to see Dani and Kelsey get along so well, but then again, who couldn't get along with my girl. She was perfect. Zayn and Perrie sat at the end of the table, quietly smirking. Of course they were never the talkative couple, but they were one of the cutest ones here. And then sat Harry, the only single one in the group. He always thought of it as a positive thing. It meant he had more time for the band, and more time to focus on the better things in life.

I don't know what could get any better than spending my time here on earth with my beautiful girl. My eyes scanned over her, relishing in her beauty. I hated it when she thought herself of being ugly, because she was far from it. Her silky blonde hair cascaded down her back in perfect waves and her make up, completely natural, was done to absolute perfection. Her tanned skin was flawless, not showing a single blemish, and her black satin dress fitted her perfectly. I mean, how can she say she isn't beautiful?

"So, who wants to guess when they did it?" Harry abruptly screams, causing the table and half of the restaurant to fall in a hushed silence.

Slapping myself a huge, yet cute, giggle escaped from Kelsey, causing me to chuckle as well. "None of your business, Styles." Warm lips pecked my cheek, causing a red blush to rise on my cheeks. "Eliza just texted me, I need to leave."

"But babe," I pouted, my bottom lip jutting out. "I don't want you to leave." Her shining smile appeared upon her face, lightening the mood.

"I have to, I have a job tomorrow." She quickly pecked my lips before standing up. She grabbed her belongings and pulled me up with her. "I love you. I'll see you tomorrow."

My lips found hers, interlocking in a firework display. Her hands found their way around my neck, grasping the small hairs as I deepened the kiss. I licked her lips, asking for the ultimate entrance. She proceeded to let me in when her phone vibrated between us.

She laughed as she pulled away. "I have to go. I love you, Nialler."

"Bye, babe, I love you so much." I watched as she left the building, turning slightly to offer me a small wave. I waved back as she climbed into the Suburban, closing the door. Watching as the car drove down the road, I warily wished I hadn't let her leave me.

Maybe I should have listened to my gut.

The party had finally ended, and all you could see were drunk teenagers roaming the parking lot, searching for a ride home. I was probably the only sober one in this parking lot, and I flinched as I watched my best friend, Emily, stumble over to the car.

"Maybe you shouldn't drive Em," I said cautiously. Emily wasn't the happiest drunk.

"Maybe you shouldn't drive Em," she mocked. "Kiss my ass, Rae, I'm driving, I just got my license, and when did you get yours?" She paused eyeing me slightly. "Oh that's right, never." Ouch that one hurt. It always happened. Whenever Emily had a little too much to drink she'd take it out on her best friend, me.
