Maddy's POV

Friends ? The answer to that question used to be 'no, not really' but now I can proudly say 'yeah, I've got a heaps!'. I can't believe that beth just happened to be there, when I fell over. She's so nice and cares so much, imagine if she wasn't there, or if harry happened to turn that corner a second after he actually did it could have been so different.

It's almost the end of lunch, so I make my way to the cafeteria for a quick lunch. I grab a somewhat healthy lunch and find a seat. Beth and Niall are here so I go and sit with them.

"Hey, mind if I sit ?" I ask them cause they seem to be cuddling, I don't want to interrupt something.

"No, sit down" Beth replies sitting up again clearing her bag from the empty seat. "How were the first classes of the day ?" She asks me

"Good yeah, I only had one other class, law" I answer "what about you guys ?" I ask

"Oh yeah good, but then again it's classes so they're never gonna be terribly exciting" Niall replies but he seems a bit bothered, hopefully not at me. "I should get going I've got some things to do" he says standing "I'll see you guys later" he says, Beth hugs Niall before he walks off, rather quickly might I add.

I'm not sure if he's annoyed at me for ruining a special moment, or if there's something else.

"What's the matter with Niall ?" I ask "he seems bothered about something" I add.

"I got harassed by some trespasser but he seemed fine after i cleared the air" Beth starts "so I don't think that's it, but I don't know" she looks upset. "I just hate seeing him so bothered and sad".

"Well, I maybe you should ask him about it. It could be anything bothering him" I say trying to be helpful.

"Yeah, I guess I should. Thanks" Beth says looking a bit better. "Well I better be off, I've got to run to the shops to get some things" Beth announces. "You wanna come ?" She asks me with a smile on her face.

"Yeah! I need some things too" I reply and we leave the cafeteria. "I need to get my wallet first" I tell beth.

"Same here, we'll go to yours first" Beth says and we make our way to my dorm.

We finally finished getting our things from our dorms and we start walking because the shopping centre is not to far away. I kind of forgot what life is really like, outside of college. I watch as all the cars and busses go by, the people walking in and out of stores, talking and laughing. College life is mainly based on a few things ; study, coffee and lack of sleep. Yeah, friends also but you know it's not like high school life.

But then again there are other things, like friends. Harry. Okay maybe I have a little crush on harry, but I can't let it get bigger cause I can tell he only wants to be friends. He spends so much time with me I can almost feel the friend zone barrier in the room.

"So Maddy" Beth starts "how you liking the group ?" She asks me

"Yeah! You guys are so great, nice and super funny. I think the group is the best friends I've ever had" I reply to her, she starts smiling.

"Awe that's so sweet! I was afraid some of the guys would be a bit over the top" she tells me looking relieved.

"Louis, yeah at first I was like 'woah' but I got used to him" I say humorously.

"Yeah, that's who I meant. Also Michael can be kinda loud" she says.

We finally reach the shops and we enter target. "Target is like the best thing !" Beth says "yeah they have some great things!" I agree with her.

We shop around and purchase our items, the starbucks across the road just calls out our names, so we go over and get some drinks.

"What would you girls like ?" The guy behind the counter asks.

"We'll have two green tea frappes thanks" Beth orders for us both.

"Okay, that will be eight ninety-five, and your names ?" He asks

"Uh, Beth and Maddy" I say we smile and walk away.

He's kind of cute
