>

>

I never thought I would feel this stunned as I am right now. I cannot move my body. I am completely frozen. My life was supposed to be boring and unhappy. In the past week, I have gone up and down the rollercoaster called life. It was exhilarating, yet my insides felt uneasy.

As I look around and take in all of the unfamiliar faces, my jaw drops open. I hated being around people. I could barely stand working at the diner. At last party I went to, I barely made it out alive. How am I going to last at my own birthday party?

I realize that I've been staring for too long, so to make the situation less awkward I decide to speak up.

"T-thank you, M-madison. H-hi everyone," I stutter.

Everyone goes back to talking to one another, while I pull Madison aside.

"Madison, what the hell?" I whisper yell.

"Sorry! It's your 21st birthday! I wanted to show you that you can have a good time," she stated.

"You know I hate being around people. I don't know how to socialize," I said a little embarrassed.

"I'll teach you! I want you to be happy and make friends, and I vow to get you one more friend by tonight."

"Fine. Tell me what to do."

She looked in the distance for a second. A smile came upon her face, as she turned me around.

"Do you see that guy standing all alone over there?" she asked.

I nodded.

"He's hot. Go up to him and tell him hi," she ordered.

"What do I do after that?" I asked.

"Ask him questions about himself. Like what's his name and what college he attends."

"Do I have to?" I whined.

"Yes. Now." She shoved me in his direction.

I started to walk towards the man, while my knees started to shake. I turned to Madison and she gave me an encouraging thumbs up. I kept walking until my feet came close to his.

"Um h-hi, I'm Caly," I said nervously.

"Hey Caly. Birthday girl right?" He asked.

"Y-yeah, t-that's me."

"Don't be nervous, love. I'm Louis," he introduced.

"Okay. Hey Louis," I said more confidently.

He asked me questions about me and he seemed super nice. He's very attractive and his accent sounds British. Maybe I've found a new friend?

I've learned that Louis Tomlinson is from Doncaster and he recently moved to LA for a fresh start. He wants to be a singer, but his realistic dream job is to be a newscaster. He is very bubbly, like Madison. I've also learned that he really, really likes carrots.

We talked for a good 15 minutes, until Madison got everyone's attention.

"Hey everyone. Since today is dedicated to my lovely friend Caly, I want to say something. Calz, I was dreading the first day of work at the diner all those years ago. When I walked through the crappy doors, I immediately thought that this job was not going to work. I did so bad on my first day. You saw me struggling, and gave me an encouraging smile. That was all I needed to get through the day. I've wanted to be your friend ever since. Years later, look at us. You're my best friend and I love working by your side everyday. Thank you for being in my life and making it a little easier. I love you, Caly."

Tears fell from my eyes. I stood there watching Madison say the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. I ran over to her and hugged her so tight, she couldn't breathe.

"Thank you, Madison. For everything. Thank you for being in my life. You mean to much to me," I whispered while my arms were still wrapped around her.

I let go of her and we stood there crying for a couple more minutes. Fortunately, she put waterproof mascara on the both of us, so black water wasn't running down our faces.

We cleaned yourself up, so that we could go back to enjoying the party. As much as I didn't want to admit it, I was kind of having fun.

I walked back to find Louis. I wanted to make him my friend. After walking around the house, I spotted the brown hair I came familiar with.

"Hey Louis. Sorry for leaving you back there," I said.

"It's fine, love. What your friend said was really sweet."

"Yeah, it was. She's awesome."

"I'd love to hang out with you and her sometime. You guys seem like fun people to be around," he said.

Me? Fun? Maybe Madison was right. I can do this.

"Really? You want to hang out?" I asked, smiling.

"Yeah! Let me introduce you to one of my friends. We can all hang out together," he said walking over to a boy with blonde hair.

"Niall, this is Caly. I met her tonight. Caly, this is Niall. My best mate," he introduced.

"Hi, Caly. I'm Niall."

Two friends in one night? What. is. happening.

"H-hi Niall," I spoke, regretting my stuttering.

"You having a good time tonight? How's your birthday been?" Niall asked.

I answered his question and kept making small talk with him. He had blonde hair and an Irish accent. I had learned that Niall Horan was from Ireland and he traveled here with Louis.

We talked for a while and Louis, Niall, and I all exchanged numbers. I was enjoying myself, until I saw a figure in the corner of my eye.

"I've got to go guys. I'll catch up with you later," I said walking towards the figure.

He turned around and saw me trying to follow him. His speed sped up when we saw me. It was like he was trying to run away from me. I followed him to an unfamiliar area. He walked into a room as I followed him. I looked around, there was no place for him to go. He was cornered.

He turned around with his head down, so all I could see was his mop of brown hair.

I couldn't make out any words. I've been waiting a week for this exact moment. I had so many questions for this one boy. I asked the only question that came to mind.

"Who are you?"

He finally looked up at me and his eyes met mine.

What I saw had me in awe.

The boy from the pictures.

The boy that I drew.

The boy who's happiness I envy.

The little boy I've been waiting to meet.
