Different but Destined

Chapter 8.

Once I get back to my dads I take my time with my makeup and hair, making sure I look good tonight. I curl my hair in big waves and do a smokey eye with winged eyeliner, once my lashes are dry I slide on my nude skin tight dress and put on my shoes.

I head over to Lou's room and push it open slightly, I look around and see she's not in here so I decide to go in and sit on her bed, waiting for her to come back.

I sit by her mirror checking my makeup and hairs okay. A photo frame catches my eye in the corner of the mirror, I pick it up while examining it.

A picture of Lou and an older man are in the picture, however she looks nothing the same. She doesn't have any piercings or tattoos, she looks beautiful and happy.

"What are you doing?" Her voice angrily booms behind me. She walks towards me and snatches the frame out of my hand, tossing it on her bed.

"Sorry." I quietly answer, looking down.

"Where are you going?" She raises her eyebrow at me while examining my dress.

"Zayn's,"

"Your going there after Harry said that about you today." She spits.

"I don't care what Harry said about me, it's bullshit." I snap at her, she looks surprised but more amused.

"You know..I wouldn't get too close to him if that's what your planning to do." She tells me without looking in my direction. I immediately want to know more.

"I'm not but why?" I question hoping she'll tell me.

"Trust me, he's not the kind of boy you want to get to know. He's damaged in a fucked up way." She frowns when she speaks about him.

"Oh.." I answer while thousands of questions swarm my head. I wonder what she means.

"You coming then?" She says, already by the door. I nod and head out.

When we get to Zayn's apartment, you can smell the marijuana and hear the music blasting through its speakers outside the apartment block. I can't believe it's not been shut down from the neighbours.

I walk up the stairs with Lou behind and knock on the door.

Zayn opens it with a massive smile. "Mettisse! I didn't think you would come!" I smile at him and walk in.

There's too many people in this apartment and you can barely move past each other. I make my way to his kitchen and make myself a drink. I'm going to have to have some vodka tonight.

I find the liquor and pour myself a bit while filling the rest up with juice.

"Hi." Someone says behind me, I turn around to look at a blue eyed boy with sandy hair falling onto his face. He brushes it back when I look at it.

"Uh..hi," I shyly answer back, wondering why he came over to me.

"I've not seen you around before." He remarks while taking the liquor off the side and gulping most of it down. I laugh awkwardly. There's something about him I don't like. His blue eyes are cold to look at.

"Yeah...I've jus moved."

"Oh have you now.." he smiles and I nod. "Come with me to the sofa, I want to introduce you to some of my friends."

I wearily follow behind him because I honestly feel like he wouldn't of took no for an answer.

He places his hand on the low of my back and I walk faster, hating the way his touch makes a shiver rise up my spine.
