Cupids arrow gone wrong

Ch.21: Miss Harrison

Nick and nelly arrived at the dinner party. He had insisted on the two locking hands like a type of couple. Nelly had refused but she had accepted after he whined and asked like 50 times or more. The two entered the room, a cute couple. The crowds eyes began to fall upon them as Nick and nelly walked behind Ian and Elliot. Rich girls almost seem to fall for Elliot and Ian on sight. That's when Adelaide came up from the crowd, with a sweet smile upon her lips. She pulled a girl to her side, a dirty blonde girl with piercing blue icy eyes. She wore a light blue dress, a long dress with some black heels. Besides her was a brunnette girl with green eyes, who looked a lot like Nicholas' mother, except he blonde hair.

"Nick! Brother!" The brunnette girl with green eyes yelled out as she ran to hug him, and he hugged her. Picking her up lightly. She seemed to be a sophomore, around the game 15 or 16.

"How you been Clarisse? How's my adorable little sis?" he said in an excited big brother voice.

"Oh my god! England was wonderful! I loved it! I would tell you more but well...I would rant about it, so, who's...this wonderful lady besides you?" She said sweetly as she smiled at nelly,

"This is, my date tonight, nelly Anderson" Nicholas said proudly as he took nelly by her hand and presented her to his sister.

"It's a pleasure to see you, I heard so much from you, you're even prettier in person" nelly commented with a kind smile. Nicholas smiled at her, his eyes gazing at her with so much cherish. Clarisse smiled at nelly,

"So he's talked about me huh? Did he say anything embarsssing? If he did, don't believe him" Clarisse told her with a laugh. When Adelaide interrupted

"Excuse me, I believe Nicholas is here to see m-" she began saying when the girl with icy eyes also interrupted

"-Me. Hello Nicholas." She said unemotionally. Her icy eyes gazing at him, no emotion in them at all. She gave off a dominant aura, almost as if she couldn't care less if someone was dying infront of her, because she wouldn't help them.

"Hi, Lindsy"

"Nick...um...do you want us to leave you guys alone? I mean we can-" Clarisse began saying when Nick shook his head.

"I'm here with nelly, so I don't need to speak to Miss Harrison right now, or Miss Sauvetterre" he said politely but his words were cruel to the ear.

"Nicholas. I believe we are to talk about my stay in America" she said in a British accent, nelly paid attention to her way of expressing herself. Her hands stayed by her, but infront of her. She was well composed, a straight back, pearly white skin. Piercing blue eyes, no smile upon her face, just a strict face.

"Your stay in America is none of my business. You can talk to my father about it" he told her, as he stayed close to nelly. Lindsy was ignoring Nellys existence.

"I already have, I shall be staying with you until my break is over. So, you and I are bound to meet more often" she told him,

"Cool," Nicholas commented, "anyways, I'll be going. I'm in the mood to dance with my partner" he said as he took Nellys hand and Lindsy smirked.

"Nelly Anderson correct? I have heard a lot about you. A commoner, am I right? She asked nelly. Nick pulled nelly away from Lindsy. Nelly didn't even answer Lindsy when Nicholas began walking quickly and pulled her to the dance floor. Placing a hand on her waist, and the two waltzing to some classy music.

"Don't talk to her, okay nelly? She's manipulative" Nicholas said as he leaned his head closer to hers.
Their foreheads touching, nelly felt her cheeks go red.
