Hi!  My name's Amanda.  You can call me Mandy, thats what my friends call me.  This is basically the story of me, the socially awkward penguin.  Some might say my life is boring, others could say that my life is their dream.  Why?  Oh, Because my high school sweetheart was none other than Louis Tomlinson.

Yeah, you heard that right.  Louis Freakin’ Tomlinson. 

I thought it was true love, you know, that he was the “one” for me.  Turns out it was just raging hormones.

I guess you could say I was really bitter when he ditched me for some 4 other random guys to form a band.  Yeah, I’m not the most supportive girl out there, but I tried to deal with it for 7 months.  7 MONTHS without seeing my boyfriend.  In fact, he slowly stopped communicating with me at all. 

It hurt.  A lot.  Mostly because we weren’t JUST a good couple.  We were the best of friends.

**Flashback**

I was so nervous for my first day at a completely random school in Doncaster.  My stupid dad made me move from my hometown city and country in California.  How did he expect me to be “okay” when he sprung this move upon me?  Well I hate this place.  Isn’t England where all the “proper” people are?  These people have no fun in their lives.  Ugh.

I walked into my first day of middle school in a school called…uhh what was it?  Hall Cross or something like that I think…whatever.  But I walked in seeing floods of people gathered by their lockers, or walking down the hall with a friend—ahem...excuse me.  A “mate” I should say.  But I know no-one. No-one at al—

“HELLO YOU’VE HAD THE EXTRODINARY OPPORTINUTY TO MEET ME, Louis Tomlinson!” A random kid said with what I thought was sarcasm, interrupting my train of thought.

“Well hello to you too!” I smiled.  He was kinda cute!  Maybe this London idea wasn’t so bad after all…”My names Mandy!”

“Hello Mandy!  Fancy that.  My fortune cookie TOLD me that I was going to meet a pretty girl named Mandy!” he winked at me, wait his fortune cookie said whaa—oh….he was flirting….right….

Awhhhh…Now I was blushing.  “I’m sure it did…” I rolled my eyes at him, trying to brush it off.

He grinned back at me, showing off his beyond perfect smile.

“K so…I don’t know any one here so I’ve decided.  We’re gonna be friends.” I told him.

“BEST FRIENDS?!!??!!” He said, with so much enthusiasm, like he won the lottery or something.

I smirked at him, “Best friends.”

--------------------------------------------end of flashback------------------------------------------

I sighed to myself.  Those were the days…

I mentally slapped myself.  Today was going to be a new day.  A good day.  I was going to put on my makeup, hang out with my girls, flirt with some hot British guys, and forget that douchebag who broke my heart. 

I walked into the bathroom to start applying my makeup when I heard a pounding on the front door.  I smiled as I ran down the stairs to greet – what I hoped to be – my friends.

 “HAPPPYYYY EIGHTENTH BIRTHDAY MAANNDDYY!!!!!!” My two best mates screamed at me, each giving me a huge hug.

 I smiled triumphantly; I have made it through 18 years of this puzzle we call life.  Yeaaah buddy!

 “I love yo—“ I looked down and saw they brought pie.  Apple Pie.  “AHHHHHHHH OMG OMG YOU GUYS GOT ME PIIIIEEEEE!??!?!?!?!  THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY. YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW!”

 Anna rolled eyes at me and said, “Really sweetie? I think we do know.”

  I giggled at her when Carissa piped up, “Well thank ME!  I was the one who had the idea!”

 That’s when Anna exclaimed, “Actually I take all the credit for the wonderful idea of buying you this pie.”

 “Nooo, it was MY idea…not yours Anna!” Carissa yelled

  “I didn’t say I had the idea…I said I take credit for it.  Gosh…”

I rolled my eyes.  My friends….

“Guiiseee!  I don’t care brought me the pie.  All I care about it eating it!!  So get your lazy buts in the kitchen and SERVE ME SOME PIEE”

Now it was their turn to all roll their eyes at me.  Well it was my birthday after all….I deserved some pie…

My friends were awesome though.  I had met Carissa in the first week or two of school in my first year in England.  She actually had moved from New York about the same time I came too.  I had instantly loved the perky and weird hazel-eyed beauty.  This girl is definitely the most responsible girl I know.  She was really caring and always thought about what was best for her friends.

Anna was one of the most popular-for-the-right-reasons kind of girl.  She was hands down the sweetest, most fun, and hilarious girl I have ever met.  Not to mention her gorgeous-ness.  If Miley Cyrus met this girl?  She’d take back ever singing the song, “Nobody’s Perfect.”  Yeah.   THAT’S how perfect she is.

We all three had immediately became close friends.  They are possibly the most amazing people in the universe.  Especially right now.  Cause they got me pie.

After we cut the pie and served it (and by “we” I mean Carissa, the most responsible one in our little group), we lay on the cough to watch tv when none other than One Direction is on.

 I rolled my eyes.  Seriously?  Ugh.

“HEY LOOK!  Its Louis!!” Carissa shouted, nudging my shoulder.  I never told either of them how bad the break up was.  They just thought we decided it would be better to be friends and we still talked and stuff…which we don’t…at all.

I gave her a fake smile.  “Yeah. Cool.”

“Speaking of him.  Guess what we got you for your birthday?”  Speaking of him?  What could they have gotten me that has to do wit—oh no.  Please no.

“WE GOT YOU ONE DIRECTION TICKETS AND BACKSTAGE PASSES!!!”

God help me.
