Chapter 1

"Don't you dare expect me to be your shoulder to cry on. Don't come complaining to me when she breaks your heart, because I told you. I told you what she will do. I told you she's going to hurt you."

"You don't know what your talking about" he spit back at me. His eyebrows were furrowed and his jaw was clenched.

"When her slutty ass cheats on you, don't run to me"

"I don't need you" his voice came out untruthfully. I looked his dead in the eyes, and his softened slightly but he kept the anger straight on his face.

He gave me one last glance before turning on his heals and walking out.

I quickly hopped out of my car and locked it while walking into the small corner cafe that has oddly become a regular hang out spot. I walked over to the table in the back of the cafe and took my seat waiting for everyone else to arrive. I decided to order my drink as I was waiting for everyone. I awkwardly walked over to the front to order my drink.

"Hi what can I getcha?" The lady asked sweetly. She was in her mid 70s and she had a sly smile on her face. You could tell she worked here for a long time because of how easily she would prepare the drinks.

"Could I just have a small iced peach tea please" I say shyly while handing her a five dollar bill to pay for it. She nodded her head quickly while grabbing the plastic cup and the sharpie.

"And your name sweetie?" she looked up at me waiting for my reply. The bell of the door went of signaling that someone was here, my head snapped over to see the 4 boys walking in. I slightly waved at them before turning back around to give her my name.

"Sorry, it's Evelyn." she nodded her head and I turned around making my way over to the seat back in the corner. I took my spot next to Luke and pulled my phone out to check my texts. Nothing.

"How's your day been Ev" Luke said while pushing my shoulder playfully. I stared down at my hands thinking for a little before I answered.

"It's been okay" I smile softly while talking a glance at all the boys. Their eyes were all on me staring at me intensely. I shrugged my shoulders and sighed before looking back down at my hands. Today has been one of those off days, were nothing works out in your favor. Nothing goes right and you just want to lay in bed and do nothing.

"Cheer up Ev" Ashton smiled at me sweetly and placing his hand over mine and rubbing his thumb over the top of my hand. Out of all the boys I was closest with Ashton, we've been friends since we were 10. We started hanging out with the other boys a few years later.

"The rave is tonight. It's supposed to be epic" Michael said excitedly. Every Friday night there was a rave, I would normally pass on going but tonight the guys were making me go. I would much rather sit at home and watch re runs of American Horror Story, but I know that's not an option.

"What are you wearing Ev?" Calum asked. That was a good question, I didn't even know the answer. What are you supposed to wear to a rave? Before I could answer his question my name was called.

"Evelyn!" the old lady shouted sweetly while placing my drink on the counter for me to openly grab. I quickly stood up making my way over to grab my drink. I muttered a small thank you before turning around and walking back.

"Aren't you guys getting anything?" I asked curiously. The boys shook their heads in response and carried on making small talk. I quietly sat in the booth sipping my drink quietly listening to the boys conversation and joining In occasionally. The doors bell rang signaling that someone was here. Before I could look I already knew who it was because of the high pitch giggling. I turned my head to see the 3 bitches of the school, Bridget, Sienna, and Mary. I rolled my eyes and watched them as the took a seat at the booth behind us.
