Text Be More Than Friends

Chapter Sixteen: Green is Not a Good Color on You!

Chapter sixteen

P. O. V. = Madison Newman

As soon as we entered the party it was as if we all, with the exception of Liam, decided to get drunk as we headed to various booths with bartenders working at them. It was a rather large party with Hollywood hotshots like Jenifer Lawrence, Alexander Ludwig, and Taylor Swift and in all honesty I was shaking like a leaf from excitement and I knew a few shots would calm my nerves. Even though I was underage I quickly downed the fiery liquid and made it over to the dance floor where several extremely hot Hollywood actors and extremely attractive NFL football players dressed very nice in their tuxedos were dancing. Smiling I walked over to Louis who was dancing dirtily with a pretty little red head, “Why who’s this Tommo?” I asked my voice slurring a little bit.

Clearly drunk Louis smiled at me and produced a rather larger drunken smile. “Megan . . . right? No, Morgana . . . heh heh she’s a model.” He said as she giggled twirling a strand of her hair. Obviously recognizing me from the recent news she did a bit of a half wave and moved on to Matt Schaub the former NFL player.

“Have you seen anybody?” I asked rather losing myself to the catchy beat of the music I tapped my heels.

Sassily Louis rolled his eyes. “Hon, don’t worry about them . . . they’re probably just snogging some girl from the Dallas Cheer team—those girls are fine. Hey why don’t you and I just dance now?” Louis asked starting to do some sort of goofy jig, following his lead I did the same. I could imagine Louis being my brother; he was fun to hang out with but absolutely no attraction.

“Hey Maddie, I’m doing The Row!” He exclaimed motioning for me to follow his lead. I of course did and there we were, two idiots standing in the middle of the dance floor doing The Row to a Nicki Minaj song. Drunken Louis was NOT a good dancer although I wouldn’t consider myself any better even whilst I was sober. “I need another shot! Wanna come with?” He asked stumbling to one of the various booths laughing like a madman. Brushing away strand of hair from my face I followed him and gave him a sly half smile.

“What do you want?” He asked after ordering a strong vibrant yellow shot.

“I’ll have the same!”

The bartender instantly raised an eyebrow and filled up a second shot glass full of bright yellow liquid. “Here you go miss . . .” He said in an awful skeptical voice as he handed me the drink. Quickly I downed it almost instantly regretting it as I let the fiery liquid slip down my throat. Choking a cough I smiled at Louis who seemed completely perky and fine.

“It’s a bit strong, eh?”

“Why not at all!” Lou laughed as he ordered another and downed it just as quickly this time, afterwards nearly losing his balance.

“Err . . . Lou—” I started before rudely being cut off by the swag Masta from Doncasta.

Giggling drunkly he nodded his head. “I’m fine, just surprised to see Niall dancing with that pretty little thing. He’s not big on the whole dating thing.” Louis informed me pointing to Niall slow dancing with a beautiful cheerleader type girl with platinum blonde hair that couldn’t possibly be natural. She looked effortlessly gorgeous in a shiny pink mini dress. Niall obviously said something awfully funny because she started to laugh and laid her head on his shoulder.

Pulling me back to reality Louis whistled. “Wow . . . he found a beautiful girl! I wonder what her name is . . .” He started as I began to pull him in the direction of Niall and the mystery girl.

“C’mon Boobear, we’re going to meet this new girl,” I growled as dreadful poison started to fill my heart.

“Oh Maddie green is not a good color on you!” Louis joked as pulled him by his suspenders to Niall and that girl. I’m not jealous! Am I?

P. O. V. = Liam Payne

The party was terrible for me . . . first off everybody got drunk. Sure I could drink now that I have both of my kidneys but I sort of would rather not get roped up in drinking because next thing you know I’ll be addicted to smoking weed and having sex every night. No thank you.

The majority of the time I was hanging out with my leprechaun roommate. Sure he was half drunk (well he was completely drunk but the Irish lad would kill me if I told a soul) and literally trying to dance with every girl. Sure I didn’t approve of it and last time I tried to protect the boy he literally socked me . . . well to be honest all the boys did but that’s beside the point.

As I was drowning my sorrows in a glass of orange juice I saw Niall politely walked up to a pretty little blonde as the massive speakers the mysterious Amory Blanchard owned. “Why ’Ello there, would you like to dance with me?” Niall asked.

His Irish charm obviously worked and in no time he was giggling with the beautiful girl. Her bleached blonde hair was unbelievably straight and looked incredibly gorgeous on her. She wore a highly fashionably pink strapless dress that covered half her thighs which seriously made me want to know if her daddy approved of it. As the song neared to a closing she rested her head on his shoulder. Just looking at them together—perfect stranger mind you they were adorable.

“So . . . I’m Niall Horan . . .” my friend said with a blush as he began to shift his weight between both of his feet. The girl, whom I soon noticed had the warmest brown eyes I’ve ever seen, smiled and laughed.

“I don’t live under a rock! Everyone knows who you are . . . me not so much. I’m Alana Blanchard . . . yep my dad organized this whole shindig!” she said popping the “p” in yep. So her father was the mysterious Amory Blanchard but still . . .

Niall and Alana began to develop a deep conversation between each other about something stupid like the food as I saw Maddie and Louis charging out of my peripherals. Actually it was Maddie pulling Louis over to our little area near a deserts bar.

“Err . . . hello Maddie!” I exclaimed though Niall and Alana still didn’t seem to notice the presence of new people. Maddie gave me a bit of a half wave although she was obviously out of breath.

Louis rolled his eyes and sassily placed his hands on his hips. “Miss Maddie is jealous of a certain runway ready beauty!” Louis exclaimed as if shooting daggers into my heart. She was jealous that Niall had found a lady friend . . . . Once again Lou rolled his eyes.

“Cheer up Payne!” He excitedly called out earning himself a death glare from Maddie who was now paying a lot of attention to the hem of her dress. I knew she liked Niall just as much as she liked Harry but maybe I could show her that she could learn to love me too. I mean I’m her actual fake boyfriend and she hasn’t even kissed me yet although she’s kissed Niall and Harry. Maybe I ought to just bring her lips to mine.

Nearby I saw a paparazzi so I decided this was as good a time as ever and brought her into a full out snog . . . it was completely wrong although it felt so right. Kissing girl nevertheless snogging a girl without her permission went against everything I stood for yet I needed it. Now maybe she’ll see who really loves her.
