Stole My Heart

Chapter 9

*Chapter 9*

*Jaci’s POV*

So Amber is back from London now. And I heard that she has a new "best friend" according to this magazine. Ever since Amber and Zayn started going out, we hardly see or talk to each other... and now that she has this new "best friend", I'm gonna be kicked to the curb. I think it's already happening considering I'm walking on the sidewalk by myself... -.- what a friend. Just as I'm thinking about all this I accidentally bump into Zayn and Alexis is next to him.

I put on my cheery voice. “I am so sorry,  Zayn.”

“No, it's cool.”

“No, I should've been watching where I was going and-”

“-Seriously, it's cool.” he says looking at me and he puts a hand on my shoulder.

“Okay.” Our eyes meet and I'm dazed.

“Hey Jaci!” Alexis says, taking me out of my daze.

"Hey..."

"Well... this is awkward..."

We all laugh... well they laugh, I fake laugh.

"Hey... umm... Zayn, can I talk to you over there?" I say, pointing to the bench in front of Starbucks.

"Sure."

"Well, I'll just be going to inside to get some coffee then..." Alexis walks inside.

He sits. “Is something wrong?”

I’ll just tell him what I’m going through and see if he’ll back off… “Well, I just feel like you and Alexis are taking Amber from me.”

“What do you mean?” he looks at me confused.

“Like you and Alexis are always with her that I think she forgot about me… we used to be best friends. But I don’t know anymore.”

“So you want to get close to her again?”

“Yeah…”

“Okay, there’s a New Year’s party at Louis’ house tomorrow and you’re invited.”

“I don’t know…”

“Please? It won’t be the same without you.”

He looks at me with those hazel eyes and I feel like I’m hypnotized. “O-okay.”

He smiles. “Great! See you there.”

*Amber’s POV*

Zayn called me and told me there’s gonna be a New Year’s party at Louis’ house and everyone’s gonna be there. And by everyone I mean their close friends and stuff, including Danielle and Eleanor. He even said Jaci’s coming… it’s been a while since I last talked to Jaci or seen her. Well I guess I’ll see her tomorrow night.

***

I take one last look in the mirror and I’m off. Oh my gosh! This is gonna be awesome!! New Year’s with the best guys in the world, what more could I ask for? :DI get there and see cars parked outside of his house and going all the way into the street. Dang, there must be a lot of people in there… o.o I park my car and walk inside. I spot Harry immediately cuz of his curly brown hair. “Hey Harry!” I say, try to yell louder than the music.

“Hey Amber! So glad you could make it!” he hugs me.

“Yeah! Me too! So where’s Zayn?”
