Addie's pov
"what do you want dad" I said quite rudely. "I want to talk to you, sit down sweets" he slurred. Dad could hardly stand up how does he expect to talk to me seriously? "Dad I have to go" I said looking at mum for back up. "listen sit down now" he raised his voice slightly. I did as I was told and sat next to mum. She was looking at the ground. Did she not care that there's drunk man shouting at us in our own home? well he was drunk so if I got everything of my chest that I've been holding back he wont remember right? before I could speak he started talking. " you look just like Katherine you know that right" he started giggling to himself. I seriously don't have time for this. " aw Addie I love you like family" he said putting his arm over my shoulder.
with every drunken word he took I got angry. scratch that more like livid. I was angry at the fact dad was slagging her of while she was in the room but she did absolutely nothing. I was angry at the fact he was drunk. God he just a poor excuse of a father.it was now 7 30 and I was now late for the party. things just started getting aright with Zayn and im here with 'dad'. I knew I had to just leave but I wasn't brave enough. I haven't seen him in 10 years I didn't know what he was capable of when he is drunk and that scared me. There wasn't one responsible bone in his body right now. " did you miss your daddy Adds" he said giving me a nickname. it made me sick
I must of rolled my eyes like 55 times right now. Still mum was doing nothing but sit on her lazy behind. I wished I was just normal for 5 minuets like going on dates. having confidence but whenever I tried things go wrong. No wonder im a insecure mess. I think that's why I craved Zayns affections so much. He made me whole for a couple of hours. " answer me Adds I am your father" he said standing over me. I was so angry at his use of the word 'father' " your not my father if you was you wouldn't be here drunk and shouting at you 'family'" I said standing up. I noticed mum look up at me with a shocked expression. I couldn't blame her I was shocked at myself.
"if you were my dad you wouldn't of split me and Katherine up. if you were y dad you would of been here for my birthdays. not one card I got dad was it hard to get a birthday card where you was living?" I said shouting directly at him. "that's enough Addie" mum said with a sigh. Is she being serious?. she's sticking up for him after 10 years of regret. " no mum , both of you are poor excuses of parents" I said near tears. it felt so good to get this of my chest. I immediately regretted what I said as I was pounded with guilt. " go to your room now " mum said now shouting at me. it wasn't my room. if it was room I would have to call this place home and it wasn't. I would be leaving in a matter of months. "no im going out." I said walking to the door. And not looking back. "if you leave don't ever come back" mum said with tears in her eyes. I didn't care I couldn't stay here.
I slammed the door. I officially had no family. I was alone in this cruel world. I had Zayn but would he want me?. I had to take that risk. I was to proud to go back now. I wanted to phone him but I had no phone. apparently I left it at Zayns but I don't remember doing that. the party was miles away from my street, I have to walk. wait Louis lived opposite me. he could give me a ride. I knocked on his door hoping for him to be in. he opened the door and opened his mouth as if he was shocked. "wow Addie you look amazing" I blushed. he was going to the party because he was in a tux. Louis looked amazing not me. "thanks are you going to that party thing" I said "yeah want a lift?" ah thank god I didn't have to ask. "yeah thanks"

I finally got ready and so did Sasha. I obviously looked better then her. it took me hours to get ready and it was worth it. finally I would have Zayn by my side. *BING* Addie's phone was ringing non stop. I checked who was phoning and it was Zayn. "hello Zayn" I said in my best insecure voice. "hey im on my way to yours now" oh no he cant go there. "wait! just go to the party ill meet you there " I said hoping for him to say yes. "sure see you later then love" ah the way he says love is just perfect. Addie was so stupid how could she keep her hands of him? "im gonna get wasted tonight" Sasha said. I hated alcohol it was like poison in a bottle. I saw what it does to dad everyday. Anyone stupid enough to get addicted enough was just mugs.
I finally arrived at the party and I was jam packed. Everyone was partying and having a good time but no Zayn. was he not here yet? "Addie wow" a familiar Bradford accent said. "I didn't think you had it in you" Zayn said looking at my legs. "well im capable of anything.. trust me" I said in the best seductive voice I could. "I didn't expect you to wear something... so.." he was clearly lost for words "sexy.. hot.. glamorous.." I said hoping to help him out. "short" he said to my dismay. "so now that every boy is checking you out what do you want to do" he said with humour in his voice. "lets dance" I said taking his hand in mine "you know I cant dance Addie" he said removing his hand from mine. "for me" I whispered in his ear. I bit my lip and leaned my head to the left. "Addie are you.. are you drunk" he said worrying. wow Addie really doesn't know how to have fun with Zayn.
"im fine Zayn lighten up" I said nudging him in the arm. I cant have blown my cover already right? he frowned. God man why is he worrying if im drunk or not jeez. "Zayn lets go inside " I said trying to sound insecure and whiney like poor sweet innocent Addie. he complied and led me into a room. "wow this is cosy" I said sitting on a pink sofa. He said down next to me. I took this opportunity to sit on his lap. "hey" I said while kissing his neck. "hello.. Katherine" shit how did he know it was me? "what Zayn its Addie" I said pretending to be mad. "sure" he said sitting up. "where's Addie" god after all my flirting he still wants Addie, what the actual hell? "I don't know she said she wasn't coming" I said now inches from him. "well see you" he said while his lips brushed mine. what tease. I stormed out of the room. I was livid. how dare he turn down the cute one.
I accidently bumped into a boy and he spilt his drink on my dress "oh my god im sorry" before I could argue with him , I looked into his eyes. they were a dark brown and I could tell he was extremely attractive even when there's a mask blocking the view. "im Liam" he said smiling. "Katherine" I said putting my hand out to shake. maybe I would get lucky tonight.

"thanks for the ride Louis" I said pulling him into a hug. he truly was a life saver. "no problem" he kissed my cheek. why did
he give me butterflies? I walked away from him. I had to find Zayn before Katherine did.. but I seriously doubt she would do anything to hurt me.. I just had a feeling I could trust her but why?. "wow Addie you look.. stunning" Zayn said pulling me into a hug.. and here comes my nerves. "thanks Zayn" I said plucking up the courage and kissing him on the cheek.
I remembered he didn't like to dance so there really wasn't much we could do. "do- do you want to dance" he whispered in my ears. I felt all tingly in my stomach. I could get used to feeling wanted and adored. "sure" I took his hand and he led me to the dance floor. " really love your dress Addie" he said looking at me dead in my eyes. I blushed at his comment. " it would look better on my floor though" he said with humour on his floor. I slapped his arm playfully at his comment. I remembered I had no were to go. I was practically homeless I needed to ask to stay at Zayns but would he let me? " Zayn can I stay at yours tonight?" I said looking at the ground in anticipation.
I waited for his anwser
....... "course love"
