"Nothing too showy." Niall said, looking through my closet. I sat down on my bed, waiting for them to choose something. "So do you like this guy?" Harry asked. "Umm yea." I said. The boys kept looking. Niall tensed up. "So what's his name?" Louis called from the closet. I laughed and shook my head. "That is classified information." I said. Louis came out and put his hands on my shoulders. "Oh, c'mon. Tell us. Is it that Josh guy?" he asked. I felt my cheeks get warm. I didn't respond.

There was an awkward silence and Louis chuckled. "I FOUND ONE!" Zayn said, running out of the closet with clothes in his hand. followpics.net/winter-wardrobe-polyvore/ I had to admit, the outfit he picked looked really good. "I love it Zayn!" I exclaimed. He smiled. The others came out to look at what Zayn had picked out. They all agreed he did a good job. "Okay, get changed. We'll step out." Liam said. I quickly got changed a received another text. It was Josh.

Josh: Hey can u get a ride, there's no room in my car

'Sure. :)' I texted back. I walked to my door and opened it. The boys turned around and looked at me up and down. "What, do I look bad?" I asked, doubting the outfit. "No...you look absolutely amazing." Niall said. "Thanks." I said, giving him a hug. He slowly responded in embracing me a hug. "Thank you guys so much!" I said, giving each of them a hug. "So, may I, Lillian Cowell, escort you to your date?" Louis asked, holding out his arm. "Well of course you may!" I said, locking arms and skipping down the stairs with him. I grabbed my keys and tossed them to him.

We walked out of the house and got in the car. I sat up front and the other four boys sat in the back, squeezing in. Louis started backing out of the driveway. "So you still won't tell me who this guy is?" he said, almost whispering to me. I shook my head. I turned around to check on the four in the back and saw that all of them were chattering except for Niall who was looking out the window. "Niall, are you okay?" I asked. I saw Louis looking at him through the mirror. "Yea just fine." he replied, still staring out of the window.

A few minutes later, Louis pulled up to the theater  "Okay if Simon gets home, tell him I went out and I'll be home before 10." I said. "Got it. Need a ride home?" Louis asked. "No I'll get one." I said, opening the door and getting out. "Thanks again." I said smiling, and closing the door. I waved goodbye as they drove away. Then I turned around and walked in the theater. I saw Josh standing at the front. I walked over to him and he handed me a ticket. "You look great!" he said.

"Thanks." I said, smiling. We walked a little more in the theater  side by side. "Tell you what. I'll go get some snacks. Wait here." he said, walking off. I leaned against the wall and watched him. A girl then walked up to me. "Isn't he cute?" she asked. "Yea." I said, almost dreamily.  She watched him as he ordered snacks. Once he got them , he turned around and started walking towards us.  She waved to him and he smiled in return.  "That's weird, she must know him." I thought. "Lilly, I see you've met Alyssa!" he said, putting the snacks on the ground. He picked her up and spun her around as she laughed. He put her down. "Oh are you his cousin?" I asked. She laughed. "No silly I'm his girlfriend!"

I stood there shocked. 'He had a girlfriend?! Since when? Why didn't he tell me?! I totally embarrassed myself!' Many things raced through my mind, making me dizzy. I felt sick. "You don't look too good Lils, are you okay?" Josh asked. That nickname, my nickname, the one that he gave me. The only one who called me that. I ran into the bathroom and ran into a stall. I started to throw up. I stood back up and rubbed my head. I heard footsteps. "Hey Lilly, are you okay?" I opened the door and saw Alyssa standing there. "Yea, fine." I said, walking past her. Once I left the bathroom, I started walking towards the door. 

Josh jumped in front of me and stopped me by grabbing my wrists. "Hey-" he said. "I'm going home." I said, pulling away from his grip, and running out of the theater. "Lilly, wait, please!" I heard him running after me. I didn't bother to stop or look back at him. "Let me give you a ride!" he shouted. I didn't even care then. I continued running. I heard him stop and giving up and turning around. I slowed my running down and continued walking home by myself.
