“You’re such a slut! You deserve to go to hell!” I heard him yell. I knew I was waking up, but I wasn’t fully awake yet. I heard his voice again. “You’re such a bitch! I don’t understand how anyone could love you, I sure as hell know I don’t!” he yelled. I finally sat up in my bed, my eyes sprung open. I looked around my room, nobody was there. I sighed in relief, I looked at my clock, 11 am. “Oh shit, I have to meet up with the girls at 12” I said. I got up and walked over to my closet. I opened it and started looking for something cute to wear. As I was going through the clothes, something fell off one of the hangers. I bent down to get it, then I saw what it was. It was a sweater…his sweater. I picked it up and looked at it, it’s been a while hasn’t it? Has it really been 4 years? It seems a lot longer than that. “Why do I still have this?” I asked. I went to go toss it into the garbage bin in the hallway, but something was holding me back. I looked at it again. “Why can’t I throw it out?” I asked. I shrugged it off and threw the sweater on my bed. I went back to my closet and got my clothes out. I got changed and brushed my short, wavy blonde hair. I looked at myself in the mirror, I hate that I have brown eyes, why can’t I have blue!? They go perfect with blonde hair! I looked over at my clock again, 11:30. “Alright, time to get going” I said. I went downstairs, grabbed my keys and walked out to my car. I got in the car and started driving to my friend’s house. It’s the year 2014, wow, it actually has been 4 years. Hi! I’m Ivy Harrison. I’m a 21 year old woman from Bradford, England. I can say that so far, my life has been an amazing one…except for a little roadblock that threw me off track a little…but that’s all behind me now. A little while later, I arrived at my friend Madison’s house. I got out of my car, walked up and rang the doorbell. My other friends, Robyn and Kristen, answered the door. “Hey Ivy!” Robyn said. “Come on in, Madison will be here in a minute, she ran out to buy chips” Kristen said. I came in and sat down on the couch with the others. After a few minutes, Madison came back. “Hey Ivy, glad you could come” she said. She set the food down and came into the room. “Well, let’s get this movie day started! Robyn, turn the TV on” Madison said. Robyn turned on the television, there was some kind of interview on. “Hey, it’s One…” Robyn began. I looked at the screen, I froze. I felt my heart drop, One Direction was on the screen. I saw him again…I can’t even look at him anymore without seeing a monster. He was laughing with his 4 best friends, as happy as could be…he’s probably forgotten all about me. I was the one left with the burden…left with the memories. I was left depressed and lonely while he went off and became a world famous pop star. I just stared at him on the screen, my friends looked over at me. “…Direction…” Kristen said. Madison got up and took the remote out of Robyn’s hand. She switched the channel and gave the remote back to Robyn. I was still staring at the TV, as if he was still on it. Madison walked up to me and laid her hand on my shoulder. “Sorry about that Ivy…are you ok?” she asked. I had nothing to say, I was frozen like a statue. Why did I ever meet him…why did I have to meet Zayn Malik?
