The Broken and Hurt (Niall Horan)

Chapter 14

Lizzie's POV

Last night was a night full of congrats and hugs.  We stayed up until midnight talking about the upcoming season, football, school, work, etc. We called it a night when mum fell asleep on the couch. 

I woke up and instantly regretted not packing my bags for school. I dressed in my uniform and hurriedly packed my bags. My hair looks good today. What time is it? 7:18. I have to go! Niall will probably be at school soon. I run out the door and go to school. I did my mascara in the rearview mirror on the way. I get to room at 7:27. 

Niall is sitting in the back of class patiently. I walk over. Please don't be mad.

"Hey Niall. Sorry I'm  bit late. I woke up late." 

He looks up and his  eyes sparkle. "Hi Elizabeth. It's alright. You look beautiful today. It looks like you're trying to impress someone." He smirks. 

" Oh thanks. Maybe I am trying to impress someone or maybe I'm not." I smile. 

"Alright there Ms. Flirt. Lets work on Physics before Keating comes."

I sit down and we work on the problem. Affter 10 minutes, we found the solution. It wasn't a very difficult problem, i don't see why it took us so long. Gemma is sitting in her seat and she is staring at us. I might have some explaining to do.

"Gemma is here. I'll see you later. I'll text ya when practice is over. Okay?" 

"Okay. Bye Elizabeth." 

I walk over to Gemma and before I can even sit down she starts firing out questions.

"Lizzie! Why were you talking to Niall?  DId he make you sit there? What were you doing? DO you still like him? Is that why you were tlking to him?" She doesn't even stop to breathe.

"Gemma! Quit asking so many questions will ya! I was talking to him becasue we are friends. We were working on a problem. No he did not mke me sit back there, I chose to." 

"Mhm. Anyway, I love your hair today. It looks lovely." "Thanks Gem. I can't wait to go shopping."

"Oh um Liz I forgot to tell you last night, I can't go anymore. My parents are going to visit my granddad and grandmum in Liverpool tonight so I have to watch Fletcher and Abby. I'm so sorry. We can go next week after school if you want."

This is perfect in a way. I didn't really want to go shopping anyway. I don't relly like it. But Godforbid if Gemma ever found out. "Aw okay. We c go sometime next week. no big deal. Tell your parents I say 'Hello' and to your grandparents."

"Will do Lizzie." 

"Okay class, please hand in your worsheets and lets take some notes." Mr. Keating's voice thunders through the room.  We all take out our notebooks and start writing down what was being written. I start doodling on the edges of the paper, I am not focused at all today... Its going to be one of those days.  

Its the same way in all of my classes. Lucky we didn't learn anything relatively new and didn't get any homework.  Today is beginning to look like a promising day. But that might change during practice. Coach Denise is here today to help with workouts and she goes all out. Bench press, weights, and all  warmups and drills on are steriods. Atleast we have music playing. Someone put a Fall Out Boy CD in. Coach Denise's yelling and ' Death Valley' mixed together. 

'I want the guts and glory, baby,baby. This town is wasted and alone. But we are alive here in death valley. But don't take love off the table yet. 'Cause tonight it's just fire alarms and losing you. We love a lot. So we only lose a little. But we are alive (we are alive) We are alive.'

The guts and glory of winning. But first I must win and beat this practice nd try not to perish.
