"Hi, I'm Niall!" The guy cheerfully greeted me, extending his right hand for handshake. By that I can tell he has a bubbly personality which is cute. With that I got up and faced him, accepting his handshake, "Hello, I'm Amelia but I prefer to be called Lia." I said trying to fake a smile.

"Heya there! So what'ya doin' here? It's freakin' cold here." He asked, still smiling. I can clearly notice the foreign accent.

"Uhm, just refreshing my mind. Saw this beach when I was walking earlier and thought that this is the best place to think since it looks so calm and peaceful." I explained, trying to fake a smile again.

I honestly don't want to talk to anyone right now but I know it will help me to temporarily forget about what happened earlier.

"Yeah, I agree with you. This is really the best place to to think." He said still smiling. You can actually see his cheeks that are red because of the coldness since he's just wearing a jeans and a shirt with a jacket.

"So how about you? What're you doing here?" I asked, trying to keep up the conversation.

"Just like you. I was here to think, to clear my mind. Found tis place 2 months ago and I was mesmerized." He said, and looks around.

We talked a little more, found out that he go to California State University which I also go to. And he's from Ireland, which by the way, is the reason why his accent is foreign. He also told me that he has an apartment so he doesn't live in the dorms. I also gave some facts about me, like where I came from, favorite food, favorite color and favorite band, which is The Script and found out that he also loved them too.

He asked for my number and I gave it to him. He offered that he'd put his number on my phone so when he'll text me I wouldn't wonder anymore who is it. When I pulled my phone out of my pocket, I saw 10 missed calls from Sarah, 15 from Harry and 5 text messages telling me to answer answer my phone. I ignored it and gave my phone to Niall to put his number.

With that, I started to put on my boots and told him that I need to go. We bid each other goodbyes and I started to walk away. But before I can do it, he called me. I turn around to face him.

"Why?" I asked.

"I Uhhm, I really had fun tonight Lia. And I hope we could do this again." He said nervously, but still managed to smile.

"I had fun too Niall, and I'd love to do this again." I smiled sweetly.

"Well that's great! Uhm, guess we'll see each other around!" He waved at me and I chuckled. And started to walk, heading to the dorms.

When I reached the dorms I quickly removed my boots and my jacket, leaving it on the floor. I'm so tired to put it on the proper place, I'll just do it tomorrow. When I'm about to lay on my bed, Sarah appears with her hands on her waist and raisespd her one eyebrow.

"Where have you been missy?" She asked with a motherly tone, "Why weren't you answering my phone calls? Harry called me because he's worried, told me that you had a fight." She continued and I laughed bitterly sitting on the edge of my bed.

"How dare he say to you that we had a fight? We didn't have a fight Sarah, we had a break-up." I said emphasizing the word 'break-up'.

"Oh my gosh, why? What happened? I'm so sorry Lia." Her eyes suddenly turned worried and she walks towards me, and pulled me into a hug.

I told her everything, from the very beginning up until to the the last. And I started to cry when I'm telling her the apartment scene which happened earlier. She told me to stop crying and everything will be okay.

"Sarah," I called her.

"Hmm?"

"Can I.. Can I borrow some of your clothes tomorrow?" I asked her. I wanna borrow her clothes because it's way more different from what I wear. Sarah's clothes are all short, sleeveless or tube. Wearing these kind of clothes is part of my plan. Attracting boys. I know I'm going to have a hard time wearing those piece of cloth but if I'm going to make Harry jealous that would make him regret for doing that thing to me, I need to do that. I need to change.
