Hidden Love || n.h.

Chapter 2

OLIVIA'S POV

"298... 298..." I mumbled to myself as I walked down the long hallway of the second floor in the dorm section of the college.

You see, Perrie isn't here for culinary school, she's here for becoming a teacher, I believe. But I guess for some reason, becoming a teacher and becoming a cook involve the same math.

I kept having to turn my head side to side from searching for the right dorm number. I remember Perrie saying to me earlier to go to the end of the hall and its on the right, but I didn't bother.

Too lazy.

Once I reached the right room, I knocked on the door politely, since I felt like it ok? I took a step back and waited.

"Come in!" a voice shouted from inside, and let me tell you, it was not Perrie's voice. It was some dude.

I hesitated, but then gathered up the courage to open the door. Perrie's not a bad person, so why would her friends be?

I turned the brass knob and opened the door. I looked around the room, only seeing a girl that wasn't Perrie and four boys, but when I recognized Perrie I smiled.

"Liv!" she exclaimed. "Come on in! I want to introduce you to everyone."

Perrie introduced me to her boyfriend, Zayn (who I've met only 69 times) a boy name Louis, Harry, and Liam. They seemed alright I guess, but they all had tattoos and piercings and shit.

Finally we got to the girl that was sitting next to Louis, I think. I'm really bad with names, ok?

"Livia," Perrie says. "This is Eleanor, Louis's girlfriend."

I smiled at Eleanor and gave her a little wave. From what I could see, she didn't have any tattoos or piercings, which I guess you could say it's a good sign.

"Hi Livia!" she said in a loud, cheery voice. "I'm Eleanor, and I'm so glad to meet you!" Eleanor threw hers arms around me and embraces me in a tight hug. I was kind of surprised at first, but shook it off and hugged her back.

"Hi," I greet awkwardly. "I'm glad to meet you too."

Eleanor seemed nice enough, but she also seemed pretty cheery and loud, which is fine I guess-- Perrie's the same way-- but then again, Perrie is one of my only friends at this school, and I've been here for 2 whole months already.

Eleanor just gave me a smile and then I kinda just stood there awkwardly. Perrie ditched me for Zayn and was talking to him, Eleanor went back to speaking with Louis, and then Liam and Harry were talking, making me a loner.

I kinda regret coming here.

Suddenly, the door burst open and in came a familiar face with a face a didn't recognize. Before I could recognize who the first person was, I heard Harry shout something.

"Ooo, Niall found yet ANOTHER girl!" he laughed, and my face drained at the mention of Niall.

What the hell was he doing here? Yeah sure, he looks like the kinda guy who would hang around these boys, but he doesn't ACT like it.

The face that Niall was here with some girl kind of annoyed me, but I shook it off and ignored the feeling.

"Oh yeah!" Niall chuckled. "This is Barbara, my... friend."

"More like fuck buddy." Liam muttered to Harry, and they laughed. Niall must've heard them too, and laughed along with them. And I honestly thought at first that Liam was joking. Nope.

"Perrie, where's the beer?" Niall asked, searching the whole dorm for it.

"In the fridge, dumbfuck!" Perrie hollered.

I stared over at Barbara. She seemed nice enough, but not the type to sleep with Niall. Then again, Louis and Eleanor could be the same way. But what do I know?

Niall walked over to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of beer and popped the lid off in one quick move. I don't drink, but when I used to open the lid for my dad, I would get marks on my hands from attempting to twist the lid off.

Niall gulped down half the bottle by the time he made his way through the tiny dorm over to Barbara. She stood there awkwardly while Niall slung his arm around his shoulder and drank his damn beer.

"Hey," a voice whispered behind me. I spun around to find Harry, out of all people, standing there.

"What do you want?" I said, making it come out harsher than I intended.

"Damn," he says. "You're stressed."

I just rolled my eyes. "Look, did you need to tell me something, or can I walk away now?"

"Okay okay," Harry sighs. "I saw that you were staring at Niall."

My cheeks flamed and were probably a bright red. I stayed silent, basically telling Harry to continue.

"Did you want to fuck him or something? Cuz it's pretty obvious you like him."

I blushed even more, which I didn't think was possible, but I kept a straight face, if anything, and pissed face. "No." I stated.

Harry shrugged. "Fine fine, don't admit it. I can keep this conversation a secret, if you want."

I shot him a glare. "I'm not going to admit anything! I'm leaving!" I scowl, and it came out a lot louder than I meant. Everyone jerked their heads over to Harry and I, but I didn't really care anymore.

I just rolled my eyes and stomped towards the door, while everyone was silent. I was too angry to be embarrassed-- why would Harry even say that stuff?

As I brushed past Niall, he whispered something to me.

"Fuck ya later." he said in my ear, and I stopped dead in my tracks. I was insanely mad... but really??

I turned around, probably looking mental, but did I honestly give a fuck? I lifted my right foot off the ground and swung it back and then forward, kicking Niall in the leg.

He groaned in pain and doubled over as I left the dorm.
