The Nerd | Completed

Chapter Twenty-Three

The rest of the week went by really quick, I had lunch with Emma every day since Zayn had been sitting at his old table with Louis. I was completely fine with it because they hadn't seen each other in awhile so I guess guys like to catch up just like girls tend to do.

I got note during my last class for the day from Zayn. He wanted me to wait up for him after class. I had no idea why but I decided to wait for him for two reasons. One, he was my boyfriend and I haven't been able to talk to him lately. Two, he made this stupid puppy dog face at me when I turned around to face him in the back of the classroom.

I waited until most of the people had left before walking up to Zayn where he was in the back of the class still. I walked out into the hall with him before he said anything.

"We haven't seen each other lately so I was wondering, maybe we could go to a party tonight? It's at Louis' house and his parents are out of town for the next week." he says.

"I don't know Zayn, I don't really like parties," I saw his face darken a little, "But I'll go just for you."

"Yes! Thank you Dove, I'll pick you up around eight?"

"Yeah, I'll be ready by then."

"I love you Dove."

Wait, did he really say that? Did he mean to say that? It had to of slipped out.

"I love you too Zayn."

I turned around and went straight for my locker, I saw Emma already there.

"I need your help Em," I told her while stuffing my books into my locker.

"With what Sam?"

"I'm going to a party with Zayn tonight and I don't have anything to wear."

"Absolutely! Your very first high school party! I can't wait to help you get ready!" She was so excited.

"You are the best Em, can you walk home with me? We can stop by your place and grab the clothes."

"Sure, but why are you walking home?"

"Zayn gave me a ride here so I didn't bring my car."

"Okay, just let me grab my stuff."

*Time Skip*

"So where is this party?"

"I think it's at Louis' house." I reply.

"Wait, Louis as in Zayn's Louis?"

"Yeah... why?"

"I got invited by someone who wants to take me." Emma answered.

"Can I do your makeup then?" 

"Sure, I like it when you do it." she says. 

I pulled out a pair of black skinny jeans from her closet and looked through her tops. I found a really tight looking black crop top and decided to go with that one. 

"How about this?" I ask holding up the outfit I put together.

"I love it! I think it would really good on you too."

I head into the bathroom and try on the outfit, it looks pretty good. Well, except for one thing, you can see a few of my scars from before I had met Zayn. I used to cut on my thighs and lower stomach. I haven't cut in a few days though. Ever since I met Zayn and we had started to hang out, I don't know why but I feel a little bit better about how my body looks.

I sigh, maybe I won't be able to wear this outfit after all. I open the bathroom door and walk out towards Emma. 

"How does it look?"

"I really like it, wait, what are those?" she points to my scars.

"Oh, those were from, um, I had a few surgeries a few years ago. Nothing big, don't worry about it."

"Oh, okay then." I could tell she didn't believe me but she dropped the subject anyways

I sat down and she did my hair in loose waves or curls, I couldn't really tell the difference between the two.

She put on my makeup which was way better than I would have done I had to admit.

( I am just using the makeup not the actual person, just clarifying)

I looked at the mirror in front of me, I actually looked like a decent human.

I did Em's makeup and hair and then we sat on her bed talking about random stuff, nothing unsual.
