The girl that took my breath away

- Elouise's pov -

Long story short, my dad left me when i was young and shortly after that my mum got married to a guy which is now my step dad. My mum got a job offer in California which caused us to move there.

Its my first day at school today and this might sound crazy but i have never been the nervous type but today im so nervous its not even funny. I put on a pair of blue denim jeans, a grey long shirt and a brown cardigan along with my doc martens.

Even though i hate buses, i had to take one to school unfortunately. I want this new life here in california to really be good. New friends, no drama, possibly a chance of love and good grades. Back at my old school, it sucked. I had one friend and she moved schools too so it didnt work out that well. I never really knew my dad well, he left when i was 3 and i basically just learnt to speak when i was 3 so there wasn't much i could do there.

I grabbed my bag and phone and went to the bus stop. There wasn't any seats to sit and wait on so i just stood there on my phone.

- a few minutes later -

When i entered the bus, it felt like all eyes were on me. I took a seat at the front so i could be the first one to leave. The bus trip was like 5 minutes and it smelt so bad. Yuck.

'Cali High School' the big sign across the gate gave me a daunted feeling. This was scary, i felt so nervous. Not the butterflies in your stomach type of nervous, the type of nervous where you feel like your legs are about to fall off from how much you are shaking, the butterflies in your stomach make their way up your throat and you find it hard to swallow. Yep, that type of nervous.

I took a step through the gate and made myself a promise, this year is going to be amazing. Everyone looked so happy to be back to school after spring break, and then there was me. I made my way to my first class; English. Room 32. I looked around the hallways to see if i could see that room. I speed walked across the hall to enter the room. My heart was racing, luckily i wasnt late. The teacher hadn't came yet and there was an empty spot next to a really tall guy that looked like a jock and then there was a seat empty next to a really cute girl. She hand gestured me to sit next to her.

"You do not want to sit next to him, its like the worst mistake you make in this class" she said quietly to me.

"Oh, right" i whispered and took my seat. "Im Sophia, im guessing your new here?" She said politely. I kind of paniked because someone was actually socializing with me. "Im Elouise, yeah i just moved here. First day" i said back trying not to mess up my words.

As soon as Sophia opened her mouth she got interrupted by a really cute laugh. I looked up to see 3 most cutest guys i have ever seen in my life. "Thats Harry, Zayn and Niall" Sophia said to me. "Oh w-wow um"

- Harry's pov -

I saw Sophia mouth the words "Thats Harry, Zayn and Niall" so i smiled back to the really attractive girl sitting on the other table.

- Elouise's pov -

The cute guy with the curly hair just smiled at me. Is this happening oh my god no stop what is this. Do i smile back, do i wave, what do i do. I feel a slight nudge from Sophia, forcing me to smile back. "He never smiles at any girl, you should feel special Elouise!" Sophia whispered.

- 10 minutes later -

The teacher still hadn't come. Was this real? Free period woo. Sophia made her way to the boys table sitting on Nialls lap. I awkwardly sat still at my table trying not to be noticed. I heard Sophia tell the boys my name was Elouise. A second later, a deep, raspy voice called my name. "Elouise!" It was the boy with black hair, Zayn. "Come sit with us" he smiled and pulled out a chair from underneath the table. I stood up fixing my hair and took a seat. I felt like all eyes were on me once again. Harry fixed his hair in the most cutest way, he looked at me and smiled. His smile was so attractive i just. No. Not fair. The bell rung a few minutes later and it was recess. Sophia took me to the bench where the boys had been already seated. "Heeeey Elouiseeee" said Niall in a really sarcastic voice, smirking at Harry. "This is Louis" said Niall, pointing to him. "Louis looked up from his phone and looked shocked. "Uh.. hi Elouise" He was so good looking i stumbled on my own words "hey Louis" I put my bag down and sat next to Sophia who was flirting around with Niall. A tall guy walked towards us and sat across from me. "Hi babe, im Liam you must be the new girl Harry was telling me about. Nice to meet you!" Liam was a sweetheart, he called me babe! "Hey Liam, yeah its really nice to meet you all. I didn't expect to be accepted this soon on my first day. Thank you all!" I said back, trying not to smile histericly. "Well, everyone Danielle and I are having a party tonight at ours, i expect you all to come yeah thanks" i saw no choice not to attend so i told him i would come. Better chance to get closer with the group.
