"Father! Father!" I shouted as I walked down the long corridors of our New York home. My shoes clicked as they hit the marble floors, causing an echo to arise and travel through the rest of the house. I snapped my eyes in every room that I passed,attempting to find my father. And of course, I couldn't seem to find him. "Dear god, where is he?" I muttered to myself in impatience. I quickly turned and jogged down the stairs so that I was now on the main floor. I went left knowing my father's study room was probably my best bet. Luckily for me I heard voices coming through the large oak doors. I stepped in front of the doors, flattening out my dress before closing my hand into a fist and knocking three times. The talking stopped at the sudden noise. "Come in." I heard my father's loud voice say.

I quickly grabbed the handle, swinging the door open. I walked in with a warm smile, being polite as possible since my father had guests.

"Ah, Eliza my dear, to what is it I owe the pleasure?" my father asked beckoning me over for a hug.

I quickly complied, walking over and wrapping my arms around him. He wrapped his large arms around me giving me a sense of security.

I pulled back, "I actually have some important news father." I said, a smile slowly spreading upon my face as I got ready to utter the glorious words that were about to leave my lips.

My father raised his eyebrow in curiousity before grabbing both my hands and squeezing them encouragingly.

"What is it sweetheart?" he asked.

I grinned widely, "I was accepted into the NYES society! I'm officially a member!" I said gleefully.

My father's eyes widened in surprise, but after a moment he broke out into a huge grin.

"Oh sweetheart! This is fantastic! I told you that you'd get in!" my father said in pure joy. "I am so proud of you Eliza!" he praised before pulling me into an embrace.

I giggled in delight, loving the approval that I was getting from him. I had worked hard to get into the NYES society and now that I have, I honestly feel accomplished.

The NYES society, was a club for women of the upper east side. It basically is a group of women who hold many events and banquets all throughout the city. Once a member, you get recognized in the city. It basically adds much prestige to your familys name.And being just 17 gives my family even more applause since majority of the woman are well above 25 and the fact that I was able to get in was rare. Every girl in my school dreams of being in the NYES society, so being able to say that I'm in it makes me beyond happy.

I pulled away from my father, "Thank you father." I said gracefully before turning around and peering at the guests.

Two men stood in front of me.  One was much older than the other, around my own father's age and the other was around my age. They resembled each other so I'm guessing they were related.

I couldn't help but gaze at the younger one. He was actually appealing. His light brown eyes stared directly into my dark green ones, making me feel slightly uncomfortable. I looked away and towards my father.

"Eliza, I'd like you to meet Yaser and Zayn Malik. They'll be working for us for awhile."
