The sound of the raindrops woke me up. I shivered because it was really cold and my blanket fell off from my bed. I got up and made my bed. I stepped into the shower, pouring hot water all over my body.

I dressed up to get ready for school. I wore a blue and white striped t-shirt and black denim skirt. I quickly put on some make-up, like mascara and eyeliner. I put on my sneakers and went downstairs.

“Morning, Cate!” That was my dad. He always gets home really late so I only have the chance to meet him in the morning and on weekends.

“Hey, Dad,” I said, running down the stairs.

“Have Mom told you Lex and Ben will visit us this weekend?” he said, smiling widely.

“Oh, really?” I said, not really excited actually but my eyes got widen from pretending actually.

Lex is my sister. Alexandra Carlisle. And Ben is my brother. Benjamin Carlisle. Lex is the oldest sibling, and Ben is a year younger than Lex. They're both in college, miles away from here. I wasn’t really close with them. They're really close because of their age that they sometimes forget that they have me. I felt like I was forgotten, well sadly I am.

“Yes, they are. And they’ll take you to a concert on Saturday night if you dont mind,” Mom said, appearing on the stairs.

I didn’t even care about this stupid concert, they’ll just probably do stuff like screaming and jumping together and of course, like always, leaving me behind.

I poured my milk to the glass I just took from the cupboard in the kitchen and said, “Nice.”

Mom looked at me confused. Her gray eyes stared at me, trying to study me. I hate her when she does this. She tries to understand me but she never will.

“What?” I said innocently, and I sipped my milk.

Before my mother could explain anything, I heard a honk. It’s the school bus. I finished my milk and said, “Gotta go! Bye, Mom, Dad!”

I walked outside and got into the bus. It drove off as soon as I stepped in. Thank God I gripped tight on a pole that I didn't know what it's actually called, because I don't think it's a pole. And it had stopped raining, by the way.

My eyes scanned over the seats and I didn’t see any boy with blonde hair and a pair of blue eyes. That’s strange.

I sat next to the curly-headed student council. His name’s Harry Styles.

“Good morning. As you know, I’m Harry and you must be that girl Niall loves to hangout with. He talks a lot about you and what is your name, love? I don't quite remember it, sorry.” he greeted me.

He’s so cute with his green eyes and lovely smile. He often talks with Niall after school on the bus.

“It's okay, and it's Cathleen, but you can call me Cate. He talks about me? I mean, Niall. He really does like to talk about me?” I asked, questioningly. I was his only friend at school, so that made sense, kinda.

“Well, very often indeed and where is he actually, Cathleen?” His green eyes scanned through the seats.

He called me Cathleen. Everyone calls me Cate or CeCe except Niall sometimes, teachers and my parents when they’re angry. CeCe stands for the double C on my name, Cathleen Carlisle.

“I don’t really know, actually. Anyways, it’s okay if I sit with you, right?” I asked.

“Of course, it’s my pleasure.” And the bus stopped. We had arrived. I got off the bus and went to the restroom.

When I walked out, I accidentally bumped into someone and the other guy said, “Whoops, sorry.”

I noticed some accent in there. I quickly looked up, because he's very, very tall. I had never seen him before, but his eyes are familiar blue and he’s blonde.

He looked into my eyes and said, “You okay, right?” I like the touch of his not-so-heavy accent.

“Yeah,” was all I said to him.

Suddenly, another blonde guy peeked over his shoulder. “So, apparently you’ve already met her, Luke. I was just going to look for her.” Niall said.

So, that was Luke. Niall stood beside him and I looked at them both. They didn’t really exactly look alike. Just their eyes and the color of their hair.

“Oh, hi. You must be the famous Cate Niall was talking about. I’m Luke, as you know.” Luke said with a big smile across his face. I noticed the pearcing on his bottom lip.

Suddenly, I heard a girl’s voice from behind me, saying, “Oh my gosh! Are you Luke from 5SOS?”

Luke and Niall looked over my shoulder and I turned around to see this freshman girl. She could be attractive if it weren’t because of the braces.

“What the hell is 5SOS?” asked Niall, confused.

“Yeah, I think I am Luke from 5SOS,” said Luke, ignoring Niall’s question.

I turned around and saw Niall rolling his eyes lazily.

“Oh my gosh, I love you so much, Luke. I daydream about us everyday. You are my sunshine and you make me happy,” said this girl, suddenly standing right next to Luke.

My jaw dropped. What. The. Hell. Us? As if you and Luke?

But Luke laughed and smiled to this girl. “Aww, I love you too, okay? And you make me happy, too ‘cause without you, 5SOS would be nothing,” he said.

Curiousity came and filled my head. Seriously? They just met and they already exchanged i love yous. And 5SOS? What’s that, dude?

I came back from my thoughts to reality and the girl already disappeared. Niall and Luke were talking about a band.

“So, you’re in that band?” asked Niall. Luke nodded and he turned to look at me.

“Yeah, I sing and play the guitar.” Luke said as he smiled to me. I noticed dimples on his cheeks. Woah, boys with dimples are actually something to me, I don't even know why.

“Um, what band exactly?” I asked.

“5SOS stands for 5 Seconds of Summer. It’s a band I’m in.” Luke replied, with a smirk. Oh, so 5SOS is Luke's band.

The school bell rang. “Okay, I think we have to go, Cate,” Niall said to me and turned to Luke to say, “We’ll meet you at lunch in the cafetaria.”

Luke nodded and headed to his class. History, of course. The only classroom on that side of the hallway. And as for me and Niall, we walked to class silently, not a single word was spoken.
