Chapter 9.

Sorry its really short... :(

*Friday after School*

*Lillian POV*

I have decided that I’m going to the party. I think it will be fun, we never had a party remotely close to this at my old school.

Liam and I have talked a lot in the two days he’s been here and he's really sweet, compared to his harsh exterior. You can say I have a little crush on him but he sees me as a friend so nothing will happen.

“Come on Lillian! Lets go and get ready at your place!” Chloe suggested and I freaked out, what if Kristy is home? She will most likely get a few digs in at me and I don’t really want my friends to see.

I just went along with it and we decided we would meet up with the guys at the party.

Rhaea, Chloe and I drove to my place and luckily my step mom wasn’t home. I sighed to myself and we parked.

We went up to my room and I plugged my phone into my stereo and hit shuffle. Avicii – Wake Me Up chorused through my room and most of the upstairs.

“Are you guys excited?” I asked the two girls jumping up and down on my bed. They look like 7 year olds, definitely trapped in 17 year old bodies.

“YES!” the both yelled then collapsed onto my bed giggling.

“Huh, I would never have guessed.” I said with a straight face and trying to hid my sarcasm. They just looked at me before we all burst out in laughter.

We went downstairs and had something to eat, as there was no way we would trust the food at a party.

After that we all took turns showering and then we were going to get ready.

*5:30pm, 2 hours until the party*

I was currently in the chair in front of my mirror and Rhaea and Chloe were behind me thinking.

“How about we braid your hair going away from either side of your face, join them at the back and then curl the hair hanging down?” Chloe suggested and I smiled. She got to work on that, while Rhaea came and stood in front of me.

“I say we do a smokey eye with a hit of colour?” She said only asking herself. I just sat back and let them go to town on my hair and make-up, I know it will look amazing so I’m not worried.

*7:15pm*

“WOW!” I exclaimed as I was finally allowed to see my appearance after Rhaea and Chloe were put together as well.

We decided that we wanted to match each other a little so we are all wearing overall shorts. We all had our hair in braids, with different variations as well as all rocking a smokey eye.

“We look good!” I said as we posed in front of my mirror and took weird selfies.

“Correction we look hot!” Chloe said and we giggled. Just as my playlist ended on my iPhone we heard a car honk, giving us our cue that the boys are here.

I grabbed my phone and the girls did the same as we made our way out to the van awaiting us. I grabbed my keys as well as I locked the front door because no one was home. 

Chloe opened the door to the dark van and it looked already uncomfortably full. Harry was driving with his right hand laced with the blonde sitting in the passengers seat. He looked into the mirror and made eye contact with me and I looked away, feeling a pang of hurt in my chest? What Harry is a jerk why should I care?

Niall was behind Harry and Zayn was next to him, then Rhaea sat next to Zayn kissing him. I looked into the back row and Liam was behind Niall with Chloe next to him then Louis. Great! There in no room in the van for me.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard an unmistakable booming voice say, "Would you hurry the fuck up?" I watched as Rhaea leaned forward and slapped his arm in my defense. "There is no more room, umm...-" I started to say when Harry once again took a jab at me.

"So maybe you should find your own way there, get one of your drivers to drive you eh princess?" he let out a sickening chuckle as his eyes once again met mine in the mirror.

I just looked down taking a step back as I wanted to turn around and run back into my house, but I don't want to look weak in front of everybody. Especially Brianna and Harry.

"Hey Lillian, come and sit on my lap. Don't worry about getting in trouble the cops won't see you." Liam said and I smiled a little to myself. I walked the one step back to the door of the van and climbed in making my way to the back and of course me tripped and landed right onto Liam's lap.

"Well hello." He said as I recovered from my embarrassing entry. 

*Harry POV*

God could she try to get attention any other way? She's so annoying I don't know why I am even considering the fact that I may be attracted to her. She's a rich bitch and I'm a bad boy I guess you could say. Its like in The Outsiders when Cherry Valance coming around us greasers. I mean she's to prissy and clean to fit in with us, but if Rhaea and Chloe would open there eyes they would drop her in a heart beat. 

"Ouuu Liam and Lillian, you guys look really cozy back there!" I heard Niall chirp to drag me from my thoughts. I looked into the rear view mirror for the several time tonight and saw Lillian blushing as Liam had his hands snaked around her waist and he was whispering in her ear. She seemed not aware that we were all looking at her. 

"WOAH HARRY!" Zayn screamed and I looked ahead and saw that it was now a red light and I slammed on the breaks. FUCK! I mentally screamed in my head my adrenaline rushing through my body. 

"What the fuck was that baby?" Brianna said as she turned to me and put her hand on my bicep and looked scared shit less.

"Nothing I got distracted..." I said as yet again I meet eyes with the princess and she held my glare in the mirror before I looked away and continued driving.

*Liam POV*

Man Lillian is smoking! I don't know how she doesn't have a boyfriend I would definitely love to get with her. Well more like get in her pants per say. I don't do relationships, but she doesn't have to know that. I see the way Harry looks at her, he most likely has a crush on her. I never really had a problem with Harry until he took Brianna away from me. That's right she was  my girlfriend first then she dumped me for Harry. He thinks I have forgiven him for the dick move her made but I will never forgive him. I will make him pay.

"Are you ok?" I heard Lillian say in her sweet and innocent voice and I had to stop myself from drooling just at the thought of ruining her. 

"Yeah I'm fine, just thinking is all." I say as I run my hand up and down her arm and her skin immediately broke out in goosebumps. I love the way I can make her blush and get shy so quickly. 

"Here we are!" I heard Niall roar as the car parked and I heard the base of a heavy rap song from outside the car. That Irishman loves parties. 

We all climbed out of the car and Lillian seemed hesitant to walk towards the huge house. Steven's parents are quite rich and are never home so he throws lots of parties. 

"Its ok, its just a party." I whisper in her ear and she shivers. I drape my arm around her shoulders and she looks at me and smiles. We make our way towards the front door and the minute we enter all you can smell is weed and alcohol. She shrinks away from Harry's cold hard glare and I just give him as smile. He has no idea what's coming...
