Claire's POV

When I wake up, it's no surprise it's to the sound of my alarm. Turning it off, I quickly stand up and notice I'm my room.

That's odd. I don't remember walking to my room after the movie. Wait, Liam must've carried me to my bed. I faintly remember thanking him before falling back to sleep.

Walking to my bathroom, I shower quickly, making sure to use cold water to wake myself up. When I finish, I wrap my body in a towel as I walk to my closet, looking for something to wear.

Deciding to wear something I've never worn to school, I put on a red floral shirt that fans out at the hem with blue skinny jeans, along with my floral Vans.

I may have a slight obsession with Vans. Well it's just a love for them, me having 26 pairs of them.

Walking down stairs, my hands quickly reach for a donut from the table before grabbing my bag, and begin walking to school.

Looking at my phone I realize it's 7:20am, which gives me plenty of time to walk to school. I put my earphones in and start to listen to music as I walk. The song Happy by Pharrell Williams comes on and I immediately smirk slightly as I sing in my head.

Because I'm happy

Clap along if you feel like a room without a roof

Because I'm happy

Clap along if you feel like happiness is the truth

Because I'm happy

Clap along if you know what happiness is to you

Because I'm happy

Clap along if you feel like that's what you wanna do

Before I know it, I'm at school. Putting my phone away, I head to my locker.

Everything is going fine, too fine for me. Something bad is going to happen soon, I just know it. There's an uneasiness in my stomach as I begin walking to my first class of the day.

***

Classes go on as usual, and I see the boys in my classes, but they don't do anything to me. This is freaky.

Lunch was fine also, other than the gross food, it was fine. Right now, it's the last class of the day, Geography.

"Alright class, you guys have a project you need to do. Pick one state in the U.S and give facts about it, and reasons why you picked that state." The teacher says as the class groans in return until his hand is placed up, causing the class to quiet down. "And... I'm picking your partners." The class groans, louder this time.

Not partners, anything but partners. Four boys, four chances of being paired up with one of them. I knew this day was too fine.

The teacher starts to give out names of who will be with who. I look over at the students, seeing some excited, and some are groaning in annoyance.

Please don't be paired up with one of them. Please don't be paired up with one of them-

"Niall and Zayn" The teacher says. Turning around, I see them high five each other, and begin discussing their project.

"Harry and Liam." Harry and Liam are both happy, but Liam's expression turns into a 'sorry we couldn't be partners' look when he sees me. I mouth 'it's fine' before turning back around, waiting for the teacher to give out my partners name.

"Claire and...." The teacher scans the room, looking for someone to pair me up with. "Louis," he finally says. My hands turn to ice as soon as I hear Louis groan.
