Different but Destined

Chapter 3.

I finally finish getting ready and I walk over to her room, knocking before entering.

She looks at me and is taken back, "Well you look different," she mumbles. "I like it though." She adds while giving me a small smile and I thank her. Is she going to start being nice now?

I decided to go for my black dress, it's cut out down the side in sections showing the side of my body and has no straps, it shows off my body good though.

"Right, come. It started an hour ago." She states as she gets her stuff together and walks out the room down the massive set off stairs.

"Mum, give us a lift!" She shouts rudely, Helan comes walking in with her car keys in her hand.

"Oh, Mettisse your going to?" She asks, clearly shocked. I nod. "Are you sure?"

"I'm 18, I can do what I want." I say to her, a bit too harshly, but who does she think she is? She lets her daughter go to a party and she's the same age as me.

"Yes..sorry. I-I was jus checking," She stutters while giving me a small smile, making me feel bad.

"Sorry, been a long day," I apologise and she smiles assuring me it's okay. She is really nice it's jus annoys me that she's my dads 'fiancé'.

The drive is long, about half an hour before we pull up outside the house, it's huge and there must be over 200 kids here. Well..this is going to be exciting.

"So you ready for the best night of your life," She looks at me while smirking.

"Yes, looks like it's going to be good!" I say while looking at the drunk people in the front yard.

She laughs, "Oh it will be." She fake smiles and I don't like the tone in her voice, it makes me cautious but I choose to ignore it. She's just rude.

I get out the car, following her in the large house. I'm shocked, it's crammed with people. There's red sofas in the corners of the house with people smoking weed and vodka bottles everywhere.

I get lost in the people and can't see Lou anymore, I look for her and begin to panic.

"Over here!" She shouts in my direction, I look over and scurry to her quickly. She warns me to stay close and I roll my eyes.

We walk over to a red sofa and all her friends are sitting there, looking exactly how I expected them to. They all look up at me and looked shocked? I don't know but they look caught off guard for some reason.

"This is my friend," she says to them and smirks while sitting down.

"Fuck, you didn't say she was hot! You were going on like she was a-"  A boy with lots of tattoos and piercings begins to say but Lou interrupts him.

"Shut the fuck up Zayn," Lou glares at him and he shuts his mouth immediately and rolls his eyes. Is he scared of a girl or something? I laugh at the thought but Lou is intimidating.

"I'm Zayn," he introduces himself to me, he is very attractive, he has dark black hair pushed up in a quiff and dark brown eyes. His skin is slightly tanned and I notice his British accent. 

I smile at him, "Mettisse," I say and he nods and sits down, gesturing for me to next to him. I sit down and look at the others.

I don't know why but I'm actually getting nervous. I just don't think I could fit in with all these people, don't get me wrong they are lovely people but very wild.

"This is Louis," Zayn points to a slim boy with tattoos.

"Hi Louis, I'm Mettisse." I smile at him, he gives me a smile back before speaking.

"Hey. Are you new round here?" He asks politely.

"Yeah I just got here today actually," I laugh at how bad that sounds, coming to a party on the first day I get here.

He laughs, "That's brilliant!"

"This is Liam and Niall," he introduces me to the two boys on the couch.

"Hey I'm Niall," a small boy with and Irish accent says, he's got blonde hair and tattoos all down him. I smile and shake his hand but he has other plans, he pulls me in for a hug and I hug him back not wanting to be rude.

"So when did you get here, I've not seen you around before?" Zayn says, his British accent is laced with confusion.

"I got here today actually, about three hours ago," I smile.

"And came to a party?"

"Yea.." I laugh, embarrassed.

"No, it's cool. I would of done the same," he chuckles. He's so nice.

I laugh and he places a red cup in my hand.

"So your English? Why you in America?" Zayn says to me. He's nosey.

"Why are you?" I shoot back and he laughs.

"Good point," I smile as I take a sip of my drink, vodka. It burns my throat and I do my best to hide it.

"I've moved here for work, I got a job and it's a much better place to start here, I've heard," I tell him.

"Well good for you," he smiles and I thank him.

Someone comes beside Zayn and I recall him as Liam. He doesn't look like the rest, no tattoos or piercings, I wonder why.

"Mettisse right?" He smiles. I nod and smile back.

"Nice to meet you," he nods. "Come on mate, we need to go do those shots!" He cheers to Zayn. He laughs and nods.

"Bye, was nice talking to you." He smiles and pulls me into a hug. His cologne smells amazing.

"You too." I smile and he walks off, leaving me alone. Maybe it wasn't the best idea coming here.

The music blasts through the speakers and every body gets on the dance floor, grabbing a partner to take with them. These are the times I wish I had Paige with me, she was always so lively and not cautious of anything, I mean sometimes yes that was bad but guys used to swoon over her for her personality and looks. A lot of the time I did get the guys, I was  wild in High School but I was always cautious and weary of everything, I hate that trait.

I get snapped out of my thoughts when I feel someone staring at me, I look up and Lou is looking right at me with a curly haired boy with more tattoos than all the boys I've just met next to her. He is the most attractive by far. He's definitely friends with all them, I wonder why he didn't come over when I was there. When Lou notices I'm looking she quickly moves her head and says something to the boy. What was that? I walk over to them and stop in front of her. 

I look at the boy and his eyes go wide but he looks away quickly, okay... "Hi, I'm Mettisse," I politely introduce myself for what feels like the tenth time tonight. He looks down at me and I notice how green his eyes are, he really is good looking, even more so now I've seen his full face.

"I see what you mean," He laughs to Lou and walks away. What? I turn to Lou shocked that he just did that and she stifles a laugh.

"He's rude," she shrugs and walks away. Like she can talk. That boy is rude though, what have I done to him? I don't even know him? 

I head outside to get some fresh air, I take one of the cups off the side with me and down it, grabbing another one quickly. As I lean on the back door I hear someone outside, I look round the corner to see who it is and to my luck its the curly haired boy. I'm about to leave when I hear him say something on the phone that intrigues me to listen.
