Forgotten

Chapter Eight

*Karley's POV*

I opened the door to my dorm room, and looked around. There were two beds side by side, two dressers, a nightstand in the middle of the beds, a closet big enough for two people, and a bathroom. I didn't see anyone in here, so my roommate must be out. I walked over to the bed that didn't have luggage on it and started unpacking.

When I was almost finished, the bathroom door opened and a girl with long dark brown hair that was curled, light blue eyes, and a petite frame came out. She looked up and saw me and ran over to me and before I knew it I was pulled into a bear hug. For a small girl, she gave really big hugs. She pulled away and said

"Hi! I'm Eleanor!", with a lot of energy. I smiled and thought to myself "I like this girl." I cleared my throat and said

"Hey. I'm Karley." She giggled and said "I know all about you! My friend Zayn brought you here, and he is texting me nonstop about you!" I blushed and asked "Really?" She nodded and giggled. I shook my head and returned to unpacking. After a long while I finished and plopped down on my bed. I was exhausted, but Eleanor had different ideas than just sleeping.

"HEY! Come on, I want you to meet my friends, well besides Zayn.", she said well wiggling her eyebrows. I laughed awkwardly and finally got up to go along. She linked her arm with mine and after walking a little ways to the cafeteria, we stopped. She turned to face me and said

"I should probably tell you about my friends." I nodded and she continued.

"Zayn you already know. He's kind of mysterious and shy, but if he likes you he warms up to you. Niall is the blonde one. He's the funny one. He makes everyone laugh just by laughing, because his laugh is so contagious! He loves food, so don't try to take it. Louis is my boyfriend, the one with the beanie on. He is the weird one but he's hilarious. He's the oldest in our group. Liam is one with the sandy brown hair. He's the sensitive sweet one, but he can be a cheeky lad. And Harry is the cheekiest. He flirts with everyone, and he's got a lot of charm so it works. He's the one with curly hair and beautiful green eyes. That's everyone!"

I nodded and we walked into the cafeteria. Eleanor sat down by Louis, leaving me standing awkwardly by the side of the table. The curly haired one, Harry I think, walked up to me and said "Hey, why don't you come sit next to me yeah?" I smiled and said "Sure. Thanks Harry." He grabbed my hand and brought me to his seat. I was in the middle of Harry, and what I believe to be is Liam. I caught a glimpse of Liam, and thought to myself "Hey, Michaela would like him." I was snapped out of my thoughts when Harry turned to me. "Hey Karley, I was wondering if you wanted to grab tea sometime, maybe later?" I have to admit, Harry was hot, and I really wanted to say yes, but instead I shook my head and said

"Zayn owes me for knocking me down earlier. Later, I'm going to get tea with him. Definitely another time though." Harry nodded, and we joined the groups conversation.

Harry was now entertaining us by telling us a story of his obsession with cats. Everyone is laughing. I was laughing so hard I had tears brimming in my eyes. After a long time of laughing, Zayn tapped me on the shoulder and asked if I was ready to go. I told him I had to change and after saying goodbye to everyone, he walked me to my dorm.

"I'll wait outside, yeah?", Zayn asked. I shook my head yes and opened the door. I decided on wearing my black leggings, a red tank top, and a white cardigan to go over it. I took off my purple eyeshadow and just applied mascara. I straightened my previously curled hair and slipped on my brown uggs. I walked out and Zayn stood up.

"You look great.", he said with a wink. I blushed and mumbled a small thank you. He laughed at my reaction and entwined out hands. We reached our destination and, I didn't know what to order, so Zayn ordered for me. We spent the whole time asking questions and laughing. I learned a lot about him and I told him a lot too. As Zayn was walking me back to my dorm I came to the conclusion that I really liked him. We stopped at my door and I said

"That definitely made up for earlier. Thanks Zayn." He nodded and said "I could make it even better, yeah?" I didn't know what to think but before I knew it he leaned in. I found myself leaning in too, and out lips met. At the slightest touch, I felt sparks. The kiss was soft, but it definitely did it's purpose.

Zayn pulled away, and smirked. I looked away and blushed. Zayn leaned in to kiss my cheek, and said "Goodnight Karley." I waved him off, too flustered to speak and as he rounded the corner and was out of sight, I leaned against the door and whispered to myself "Goodnight Zayn."

I walked into room and went straight to my dresser. I pulled out pajamas and went to the bathroom. I changed and washed my make up off. I threw my hair into a messy bun and walked to my bed. I plopped down and only moved when Eleanor spoke up.

"How'd it go?" I told her everything to which she replied with "I knew he liked you. You guys are so cute! Are you dating? OMG!" I shook my head and said "I really like him, but no were not dating." She shook her head and said "I'll talk to that boy, before someone else snatches you up. I know two other lads who like you." I gasped and asked "Who?" She laughed and said "Niall and Harry." I shook my head and said "Goodnight Eleanor!" She laughed and said "Goodnight Karley." I rolled over and found sleep.
