Where the Story Ends (ending to the Story of Her Life trilogy)

Where the Story Ends: 2

She couldn't makes heads or tales of anything that had happened.

So obviously someone took a picture that looks like her and Louis are kissing. They gave her a name that made her sound like a cheap whore. And as a little bonus, they also have pictures of her and Harry, so it seems likely she's cheating.

Isn't that a great way to kick off college.

The airport was crowded, so hopefully no one spotted her. She had already been stopped once by a group of tourists.

She was picking through her bag, looking for her phone, but it was already going off.

"Hello?" she tried to sound calm.

"Hey, it's Louis."

"Okay, what is it?"

"Have you seen any magazine lately?"

"I know, I saw the pictures. What are we going to do?"

"What are we going to do?" she could hear Harry in the background.

"Can you hear Harry?"

"I could hear him without the phone."

"We'll be on our way back tomorrow, so we can get this straightened out as soon as we get back."

"Yeah, if I live that long."

"What?"

"Uh, nothing. So, I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Yeah."

"Bye."

"Byyyyyeeee." the other boys joined in, and brought a smile to her face, for the time being.

"Tomorrow... goodness, I feel like Annie." with that, she collected her things from the baggage claim and was on her way.

"Okay then, I guess it's time to meet my roommate.'Just go in blind, it'll be fun. Meet someone you don't already know.' I don't know anyone, Dad."

She pushed the door opened, and called out as she walked in.

"Hello? Anyone here? I saw your car in the drive."

"Coming!" called a sweet, little voice. "Hello!" a short, slender, blonde came out from a room. "I'm Mackenzie Stack."

"I'm-" she was cut off by her small roommate.

"Elizabeth Kirkshaw, I thought you looked familiar."

"Oh, crap. You know who I am?"

"Yeah, you're in like seven different magazines." she said it like it was an obvious fact, something that everyone knew.

"Well, don't call me Elizabeth. I'm Eli."

"Eli is a guy's name."

"I like it."

"Okay, well the bedrooms are down the hall. I already have my things in one of them." she turned and headed in the opposite direction.

"Done," she looked around with her hands on her hips,"Kind of, but now I'm hungry."

"Hey Eli?" Mackenzie walked into her room.

"Yeah?" she said, letting the know that she had her attention.

"I'm going out tonight, do you wanna come with me?"

"I don't know. I mean, I don't know anyone here." she contemplated on the idea of what might happen.

"It's only going to be me, Luke, he's my boyfriend, and Jackson, his roommate. And you if you come."

"Okay," she gave into the idea of meeting new people, as long as there would be food. "Let me get my coat."

"And maybe you could put just a little bit of makeup on." she suggested, without making it sound like a choice.

"Why?"

"Well Luke's roommate is coming, and he's singl-"

"Please don't try to set me up with your boyfriend's roommate."

"Oh yeah, I forgot, you're dating Louis Tomlinson!"

"Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not dating Louis."

"Well honey, you should be. It would make such a great story to tell my friends." she giggled.

"Well, I'm pretty sure that the last time I talked to my boyfriend, he wasn't Louis Tomlinson."

"I didn't know you had a boyfriend. If I did, I never would've tried to set you up with Jackson." she admitted before thinking about how stupid she sounded."Come along, then. We don't want to be late."

"And if Jackson ever so slightly tries to make a move on me, then he will be missing about six fingers in the morning."

"Which six?"

"I haven't decided, yet."
