The Neighbors

Chapter 15

"So, Noah told me that I'd be driving you to the party tonight," Harry says as he slides in the seat next to me.

"You're going to that party?" Liam asks Harry and I.

"Yeah, Louis invited me," Harry says.

"Oh, I was invited too, not by Louis, but it sounds fun," Liam says.

"Yeah, apparently everybody has been talking about it," I say. I have no idea how this party got to be so big.

"Yeah, too bad I don't drink," Liam says and Harry smiles.

"I don't either, I'm Shea's designated driver," Harry says and I roll my eyes.

"Yeah, I think I'd like to wait until Im actually twenty one to drink so that it is legal," Liam explains to Harry.

"I drank one time and ended up kissing my crazy neighbor," Harry says. There's something we have in common. "I decided to not drink until I'm out of high school, at least," Harry says. I know that Im really young and I shouldn't be drinking, but so many more high schoolers drink than you'd expect.

"Ok, I've graded everybody's map projects!" Mr. Cowell says and I mumble 'finally' to myself.

"Took him long enough," Logan says from behind me.

Mr. Cowell passes out papers with our grades. It was a fifty point project and the paper has five ten point factors that go into the fifty points.

Labeling-10

Proportions-9

Map key-10

Organization-9

Overall appearance-5

Grade- 43/50 B+

"Logan, we got a five on overall appearance!" I whine and he shakes his head.

"I guess somebody doesn't like glitter," he says and I groan.

"What did you get?" I ask Liam.

"We got 100%," he smiles.

"I would have had an A if it wasn't for Logan's glitter," I say and make a pretend angry face at him.

"Who doesn't like glitter?!" He says and we laugh.

I had to lug around that poster board all day and the glitter started to rub off on my clothes and hair. In study hall Niall tried to help me wipe some of it off, but it only caused him to cover himself in it. I laughed at the blonde boy who had more glitter on himself than I did.

"I hope this glitter doesn't stick inside of your new truck," he say and I smile.

"Nooo way, this thing is riding in the back!" I say and he laughs. His laugh is so cute that I want to melt.

"You have the most adorable laugh!" I gush like he's a new born puppy.

"Thank you, I hear that a lot," he says and I can see why.

Niall and I have become close friends, between work and school we've been talking a lot.

At lunch that day Jane dropped her food and Noah have her five dollars for new food. He's so sweet. A lot of people have been coming up to our table and talking to Louis about the party, it was sort of annoying. One guy started to hit on Louis, but he wasn't interested. He so damn picky.

I'm finally starting to paint my rhinoceros sculpture. I decided to make his skateboard red. I finished the first layer of paint and needed I to dry to do another.

"Yes, go and find somebody to help you," Miss Perry says to Noah and he starts to walk to his spot next to me.

"Ill help you," I say and he smiles.
