Summer...Tragedy? ~One Direction Fan Fiction~ *In Editing*

Chapter Sixteen: Nothing Is Gonna Change That

Emma's POV:

I kissed Zayn goodbye as he dropped me off at university. The best part is, I still have a week to be with him. Since the boys locked me up on Sunday when they got here. I walked into NYU and every girl in the halls looked at me and smiled.

"Emma! I haven't seen you in forever!" A girl squealed and then hugged me.

"Do I know you?" I asked to the petite girl.

"I'm Abby, your best friend since forever!" Abby said, still squeezing me.

"I don't know you." I said, shoving Abby off me.

"C'mon Emma!" Abby said, playfully hitting my shoulder.

"Seriously, I only have one best friend, Nikki." I said, narrowing my eyes at her.

"Even Zayn knows me," Abby smiled at me. I scanned her. She was wearing a white tee and jeans along with a varsity jacket. Around Abby's wrist was a 'I <3 One Direction 1D' bracelet

"Even if we were friends, I wouldn't let you meet One Direction." I said before walking away from her, hitting her left shoulder with my right shoulder. I heard Abby huff behind me. I smirked.

"Really? That's low." Nikki said after I told her about the whole Abby fiasco.

"So, how's Eli?" I cooed.

Nikki rolled her eyes, "I'm not going out with that loser."

"Yeah, he'll try to get some." I agreed. Nikki sighed. I looked at her from across her bed.

"What's wrong Nikki?" I asked Nikki.

"I just wish that me, you, and Amanda could be friends again. Remember all the times we had together. All the good times. I just wish we could have that again. I wish that I was with Liam, but no. Ever since going over to England, my whole life doesn't go as planned."

"I wish that, too. I want to be friends with Amanda again, too, but I just don't know if I can. I feel like I was ditched, dumped, left alone-"

"Yeah I get it. I felt that, too, but when she said she was sorry she meant it." Nikki informed.

"Well, how do I know she won't ditch me again? She got back together with Niall." I stated.

"When a best friend promises, she keeps it. Now we have school so get off your lazy ass and get dressed." Nikki said pushing me off the bed. I rolled my eyes and went over to my dresser and pulled out a oversized gray sweatshirt and gray sweatpants with capitalized white words across my ass reading 'LOVE'. I got undressed and slipped on a bra. I slipped on my sweatshirt and slid on my sweatpants over my waist. I slipped my bag over my shoulder and headed out the door to the lobby to get breakfast.

I sat there, laughing at the lame joke I had just made while Nikki stared at me like I had something in my teeth.

"Hey babe." Eli said to Nikki, putting his tray down.

"Who's this 'babe'?" Nikki asked, putting quotation marks around the word, 'babe'.

"You, Nikki. Anyway, I was wondering if you'd like to do something later?" Eli asked, having a smug smirk on his face.

"If this was your dream, yes, but this is real life so, in your dreams." Nikki said, sweetly before saying the real life thing, then her voice got serious.

Eli cocked an eyebrow, "Feisty, I like it."

"Obnoxious player." Nikki muttered. I chuckled slightly.
