Matched with Harry falling for Niall

chapter 12 <3

Harry gave me a beautiful black dress for the ball it looked so expensive and beautiful, Zayn wasn't working that day because it was his birthday but i spent most of the day getting ready for the ball. since yesterday there was something odd about Harry since his meeting with Zayn. i couldn't really put my finger on what the exact difference it was kinda as if i didn't matter to him, as if i didn't bother him the way i did before he seemed to be acting as if i wouldn't be going somewhere so there was no point making conversation. he just seemed to be giving me things that would get me through each day. it was wierd very wierd. 

anyways he dressed very nicely for the ball, he ignored me all day untill the evening and to my absolute suprise he gave me a compliment! as i walked down the stairs in the dress he had told me to wear with my hair in ringlets. 

'You look really pretty,' he said, he almost smiled aswell but there was resent and sigh in his voice as if he was regretting something and as if my prettiness was going to go away somehow?

i hoped it all made sense soon. 

in my bag that i bought to the ball i had a spare pair of casual clothes to change into when i snuck out of the ball. i kinda felt guilty because Harry had complimented me and everything but i didnt care i was goign to do something for me for once. 

The venue was very near my old village, i got nostolgia as i passed familiar roads that i remebered of my happier life the one i really wanted to go back to. I looked at the kids in the street playing looking as happy as i used to be i felt sorry for them one day they would be matched and maybe to a horrible person and they would have no say in it whatsoveer like i did. Tears sprung in my eyes as i remembered how me and niall would run up the streets and climb the trees i would do anything to rewind time back to that time and relive it a million times. 

It was kind of like an oximoron having this swanky party in the middle of the poor village, i walked out and Harry took me to his abnoxious friends who were dressed in expensive suits and sipping on  posh champagne. everyone was making small talk and it was all so boring! 

'Hello Ava,' Louis smirked evily 

'Hello,' I said quietly

'Looks like the miscarriage really has dampen your spirts,' Liam said 

This made Harry tense. why would they bring it up? did they want Harry to get angry at me ?

I didn't respond hoping that the subject of conversation would change. 

'I mean i guess its where they are from,' Louis said to Harry

'Very true,' Liam smirked

'Your Ava is from the poorest of the poor places she probably has been brought up showering in unclean places infected with swines and has drunk unclean water, this could all lead to not ebing able to support a baby,' Louis said

i felt like crying they were all ganging up on me infront of me! i wanted nothing more to dissapear

'If you knew what it was like to live without much money you would  understand that drinking unclear water is better than drinking none, i had no choice much like many people who still live there,' I said confidenlty

'Thank fully i dont know and i dont care,' Louis spat back

i waas so fustrated with him how dare he say those things about my friends

'Obviously you dont care...if you did you would help them give your wealth to charity, all of you,' I said clenching my fists

'Calm down Ava,' Harry said holding my wrists tightly
