Violet's POV:
Stupid family dinners... I dont even know half the people here. I just have to greet the adults, and sit...nodding at everything people say, laughing at unfunny jokes, and keeping a fake smile the whole time. I hate having to be forced into these parties but my parents force me. I cant believe I missed a night at Hazel's house with all my BFF's just for this. I have to get out of this suffocation.
I went up to my mom and dad and smiled at them. I put on the charm and said politely, "May I go to my friends house now?" They were too busy talking and mingling with other people they just ignored me. IGNORED ME!
I said it a bit louder this time. "Can I PLEASE go to my friends house now?" They looked up at me with weird expressions. I guess its a no.
"Of course you can go!" My dad said to me. WHAT?
"Can you please repeat that in my good ear?" I said mockingly. I didnt think they'd actually let me go.
"BUT...." My mom said. This is bad. Their conditions are the worst.
"You have to walk there, alone" They said in unison. Walk? Thats not so bad. Hazel's house is actually just around the block. But I have a bad feeling about this. How come they just let me go. Just like that. Who cares????
"Ok fine. I'll go. Bye..." I said. And started to walk away. It was that easy. What was the change of heart?
* A lot of walking.......... Even more walking.............. I'm happy I'm not out of exercise............. Almost there............... Uggghhhh its sooooo dark.............. YAYAYAY Im finally here...............:)*
I reached the front door and realized something was odd. No sound. They couldnt have gone to sleep already. I know Hazel will never allow that. Maybe they are upstairs?
I rang the doorbell. I kept ringing it. No answer...
"Where are they?" I muttered under my breath.
I quickly looked in a nearby window but all I could see was a thick curtain.
They better not be playing a prank on me or else...
After like 5 minutes of waiting and knocking and ringing the doorbell I finally gave up. Who cares if they dont want me there. Its not my loss, its theres.... Im still a bit angry at them.
I kept walking. I guess I'll just go to the park and take a stroll. They'll be begging to make me come. And I wont come. Who needs them???
I slowly strolled along the paved paths and oddly there was a slight breeze. Its usually really hot here. I really dont care right now. No one wants me. I'm so alone.
I've never told anyone this but I feel so left out whenever I'm with my friends. Just like Niall. He's Irish and blonde. He's different. I guess thats why I like him. We both are the odd ones out. I guess....
I sat down on a bench and just hugged myself. I felt so alone. I just kept thinking of what would happen soon. I was leaving this year and I couldnt bear to leave all my friends... :( I really will miss them.
A tear slipped down my face and startled me. I didnt know I was crying.
I wiped away all the tears and got up. I was going to go back to the party. I started walking and walking, when suddenly I slipped down something and landed on my bum.
I am such a klutz. I started groaning in pain and felt sore around my body. Suddenly some random guy came up to me and held his hand out. I couldnt tell who he was because he was wearing a hoodie. Was he a kidnapper? I still took his hand as he helped me up because I was too hurt to get up myself.
"Thankyou." I said politely. He just nodded and fake saluted. Something was weird about this guy...
I looked at him. He was still wearing a hoodie. He must be a kidnapper. Then I did the most daring thing I have ever done.
I quickly whipped off his hoodie. I was a bit too curious and this guy was kinda freaking me out.
At first he was just covering his face and I couldnt see anything especially since it was really dark but then he just gave up and showed himself to me.
"Im Niall Horan..."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Those words changed my day. They changed my life. He was Niall... I am happy my friends abandoned me. I am happy I am the odd one out. I am happy about coming to this stupid place. I am happy about everything in life.
My eyes were wide.
"You are Niall...Horan" I said under my breath.
"Ummm... Yes I am and are you okay?" He asked me. I had forgotten that I was hurt for just a second and said, " Yes I'm completely fine. What are you doing here? Why arent you with the boys?" I asked him.
"Its a long story. Zayn went out with Perrie. Liam went spying on him and now Harry and Louis are just having some 'Larry Stylinson' moments so I just felt out of place. What is a young girl like you doing here alone?"
He was so sweet and considerate. And his accent was to die for.
"Well... My friends had made plans already too! And I just felt out of place too.So I guess we have something in common. Do you want to come with me to avengers? I was just going there..." I replied.
"No... That wont work. Zayn is going to avengers with Perrie. There will be some drama going on there." He said dissappointed.
"well...do you want to go to the hunger games? Its still running :)" I said
"Ooooh... Is it about food? It is the 'hunger games' after all. I am so in." He said enthusiastically.
"Of course it is..." I said sarcastically. I wanted to go with him wherever in the world, whatever he thought.
I cant believe I'm going on a date with Niall Horan! This is the best day ever.
"After you..." He said.
"You are such a gentleman, Niall." I said laughing. We just linked arms and started walking towards the cinema laughing the whole time.
This is going to be fun. :) :)
