Bold Bella (Book 4)

Chapter 11:

I was invited to a party Liam was throwing for no apparent reason that I was aware of but I talked to Niall and he seemed to be overly happy so I was guessing that was the reason. I was happy to go but was also a little disappointed that I wouldn’t be able to hang with Niall the whole night seeing as Anna was also invited. Don’t get me wrong Anna was a good person, maybe a bit of a bimbo, but I just didn’t like her because she had Niall and I didn’t.

I was ecstatic that Liam even invited me. I felt like he was truly starting to like me and I liked that. Who doesn’t like it when people like them? It seemed like we were turning over a new leaf and I hoped Louis would soon follow Liam’s lead.

            “Are you ready?” April asked as she came into my room. She looked gorgeous. She was wearing a flirty black dress, with killer heels that made her legs look long and sexy. Her hair was softly curled down her back with the front pulled back in a small puff.

            “You almost look better than me,” I said as I observed my reflection in the mirror. My blonde hair was straightened and my red lips popped as usual. My green eyes stood out against the smoky eye I gave myself and my body looked great in the white corset and black mini skirt I was wearing accompanied with black heels.

            “Dressing for Niall are we?” April asked me and I smiled.

            “Yeah, what’s your excuse?”

            “Maybe someone famous and hot will take interest in me,” she said and I laughed.

            “Let’s go you gold digger.”

            “Shut up,” she said as I looped my arm in hers and we left the apartment.

Arriving at the party was weird. There were paps on the street trying to snap photos of anyone arriving and I wondered how they even found out about the party as it was so last minute. April and I walked through the doors and there was a foyer area with a security guard who came up to us and asked for our names. Once we gave them we were let in without a problem and the party was pretty standard.

There was a dance floor, a few tables with balloons on them, an open bar and music.

            “A spy an open bar,” April said suddenly and I laughed.

            “Let’s go get some drinks,” I suggested and we made our way over to the bar and April got a glass of vodka whilst I opted for a bottle of beer.

            “You can be such a guy sometimes,” April said.

            “And you can be a pain in my ass but you don’t see me complaining. Oh look there’s Liam.”

We walked over and he smiled as he saw me coming.

            “Hi Liam,” I said as he leaned in for a hug, which I gave him though it felt a little awkward seeing as we weren’t that close.

            “Glad you could come,” he said.

            “This is my sister April,” I introduced them.

            “Hi,” April said shaking his hand.

            “I think we met briefly at the Little Mix concert where your sister performed,” Liam said.

            “Oh, yeah we did,” April agreed.

            “So what’s with the party?” I asked looking around.
