Seducing Styles

Acclimation

CHAPTER 2

I was just starting to get acclimated to my new surroundings. For example, there was a Starbucks across the street, the London mall about 2 minutes away, and my Fashion course at London University. It's been around a week or two since I first moved in as met my roommate, Crystal, who I know call Cris. Remember how I said that she was probably going to make these next four years terrible? Well, that was a complete and utter lie. She is so sweet and caring, not to mention funny. She has become my best friend in the UK and even better than some of the ones I have had back home.



"Cass! You are running late!!!! Your class starts in 15 minutes!!" Cris started screaming, knowing that I am always late...for everything. See, we are in the same fashion class and actually having the same fashion major!



"I know! I have to stop by Starbucks real quick. Today we have that fall fashion wear lecture." I really hated the lectures that we get in our fashion course. At least Crystal would be there with me. We sit right next to each other and mostly talk. But, other than scratching and designing there isn't much more a person can do, right?



"Oh. Ok! I go with you. I heard they have a new Choco Frape out... I wanna try it." Cris is the adventurous one. I mean I know I left my home town if San Francisco, California for London, England but that was for educational purposes.



"Well, then; let's go! We're going to be late!" I laughed at the fact that I was blaming Cris for our lateness when in all actuality it was me... I think even Cris got a little snicker at that!



***at Starbucks***



Cris and I found a comfy booth where we placed our scratch pads, templates, and other necessary components for the fashion industry. I sat there monitoring our belongings as Chris ordered our drinks. I always got a large FroLattes and Cris was getting the 'special'. As I watched Cris walk back with our drinks in hand I immediately saw her jaw drop. I followed her gaze to see two boys. One with teased blonde hair that had a few darker roots showing, and one wearing a beanie with a couple of small wavy curls peaking out. I, along win everyone else, noticed these stars right in front of me. They were Niall Horan and Harry Styles from One Direction.



Many girls herded them and asked them to sign anything they had. And I mean anything. Although, Cris and I were starstruck we didn't "act on impulse", instead we sat in our booth and drank our caffeinated drinks!



"Omg! I really want to talk to them but I think they might think that I am kinda a freak or like the other girls..." Cris whispered. I guess she didn't want them to hear how much of a fangirl she was.



"You are a freak!" I joked. "Anyway, it's not like they would care about any of us. We are just two of the millions of girls that like them. I mean we don't even know them." After I finished saying that, Niall, the blonde walked in our direction.



"Hey, girls. What are you drinking? I really don't know what to order." His deep Irish accent made my voice catch causing me to be absolutely speechless.



"I'm having the special Choco Frape. It very good." Cris was acting normally, awkward.



"Ok. I'll get that. What's you name sweetheart?" He asked. Many of the other girls were complaining about how he was talking to us rather than them. Harry on the other hand was absorbing all of the attention.



"I'm Crystal, but my friends call me Cris. And this is my best friend and roommate, Cassidy." She explained

.

"You can call me Cass." Those were my first words to the NIALL HORAN! Agh. I remained calm but I was completely freaking out on the inside.



"Hey Cris and Cass. I'm Niall." Omg. I am dying!



"We know." I think that Cris was playing sort of a bad girl role. "And we have to go. We have a class lecture to get to." She picked up our things and started heading for the door. I followed her.



As we started to turn the corner that would put us on East Levington Street Niall burst ed through the Starbucks doers and ran to us.



He handed Cris a piece of paper and said, "Text me! And please don't make me have to change my number." Then he left.



"Niall Horan just gave me his number! Niall Horan just gave me his number!!!!! Agh!" Cris was literally freaking out the remainder of the time it took us to get to class. I don't even think that she was listening to the lecture because she was too busy worrying about Niall and his singleness.
