*Nikita's P.O.V.*

"Hey, guys" I greeted, joining my friends at the lunch table.

"Hey, Nikita"

I've been paranoid all day. For some reason I feel like everyone can tell that I purged this morning. Hopefully, I'm not acting suspicious enough for anyone to catch on.

"You alright, Nikki? You've been acting weird all day" Niall said. Shit.

"Yeah, I just don't feel well" I lied.

"What's wrong?"

"I don't know, I just feel like shit"

"You don't feel warm" Melanie said, feeling my forehead.

"You would know" Louis retorted.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It means you're around hot things all the time because you're a pyro"

"Since when?" I asked her, thankful for the change of subject.

"It's pretty new. I got into an argument with my mom, so I burnt an old shirt of mine to see how it felt and I've been in love ever since"

"Just make sure Cher doesn't steal your ashes" Louis chuckled.

"We are so fucked up" Cher stated.

"We really are" Niall chuckled.

"How are you feeling?"

"What?"

"How are you feeling?" Niall repeated, setting his phone down on my bed.

"I'm feeling better"

"Good, because we're going to a 'bonfire' at Melanie's tonight" Niall told me, pulling me into his arms. "We're celebrating that school's almost over"

"What time does it start?"

"7:30"

"How long do you think it will last?"

"I don't know, why?" He replied.

"So I know what to say when I ask permission"

"Who are you gonna ask? Your mum or your aunt?"

"I don't know. Do you think I should ask both?" I asked him.

"I guess it's safer that way"

We got up and went downstairs to the kitchen. Auntie Anne was sitting at the kitchen table drinking tea with Gemma.

"Auntie Anne is it okay if I go over to Melanie's house for an end of the school year bonfire?" I asked.

"What time will you be back?"

"I don't know, if I end up staying the night, I'll text you and let you know"

"Alright, have fun"

"I will. Thank you, Auntie Anne. You're the best!" I said, hugging her.

We left the kitchen and I grabbed my phone and jacket.

"Aren't you going to ask your mum if you can go?" Niall asked.

"I'm going to a bonfire, Mum. I'll see you later" I told my mum, who was sitting on the couch, as Niall and I walked out the front door.

"Kind of rude of you to just tell her instead of asking" Niall said as we got in his car.

"It was kind of rude of her to abandon me, not tell me she got engaged and to make comments about my weight"

"I'm sorry, Love. Don't listen to her. You're perfect the way you are"
