Eating Disorder. [NH AU] III

» 04.

"so who was the cute brunette chic you were talking to today?" luke questions me later on in the evening after a long and tiring day of working on our cardiovascular fitness. we have been doing nothing but long distance running all day. it was extremely draining especially because i had only two pancakes in my stomach to keep me going through the whole day.

"what?" i broke out of my trance of thinking of evelyn, looking across the room to luke's bed.

luke smirks, "you know what i said."

my cheeks heat as i'm pretty much embarrassed as well as freaking out about what to say to him. whAT THE HELL DO I SAY?

"uh, so yeah she was one of the girls from the all girls boarding school nearby, she was lost and drunk so i sent her away."

luke didn't seem to buy my lie however. he continues to smirk and rubs his chin, "of course. however she seemed to know you, recognise you..."

"yeah i don't know." i looked down at the quilt of my bed waiting for to swallow me up; i'm usually so good at lying, i don't understand why i'm off my game.

"okay.. so have you see the deans daughter yet? rumours she was with devon ryder. apparently they were a 'power couple' but he dumped her because sports should be priority in his life. it's really made me think about my relationship with megan, like i don't know what to do." luke looks as confused as he sounds. i want to help but i can't even remember the last time i had a date- oh wait. i haven't.

oops i haven't even had my first kiss?

"just trust your heart rather then your head. if you love her as much as claim you do, despite being so into sports, you'll still be with her and see her as a necessity in your life rather then a burden." i tell him though honestly i don't know why i'm saying this to him because i'm usually so bad at sappy advice.

luke nods his head and takes on my advice as if my opinions were law. aw that's so lovely?

"you're right. of course you are. when are you not? gosh, you're good. you should be doing  psychology - you'll help a lot of athletes due to stress and the pressure to be perfect." luke tells me in a genuine way that makes sense to me. i can see where he's coming from. i would be an excellent counsellor, i just need to fix myself before trying to fix others, don't you think? "anyways. i'm going to go give megs a ring now then-"

"-and i'll go find something to do outside. don't be too long, i'm knackered." luke grins and nods his head before i shut the dorm door.

now where do i go?

To Evelyn:

"Hello stranger :-)"

From Evelyn:

"heeey nialler, ii was just talking about you to my room mate? aha"

To Evelyn:

"O really ? Well I hope it was all good stuff :-)"

From Evelyn:

"well of course not silly. today you basically told me to piss off. what you doing???????"

To Evelyn:

"I did not! No, I just didn't want to get you in trouble with your dad. He would kill me if he caught us together, friends or not."

-

"Oh, and I'm just walking around campus, bored. Room mate is talking to his long distance gf on Skype. You ?"

From Evelyn:

"im only messing silly, dw. ahahahaha. i dont understand why my dad is being a buttface anyway? i should be able to talk to whoever i damn well please! he really suffocates me it's insane. awwrr how cute? your room mate is from australia right? and im on my way round to your school rn to see my dad."

To Evelyn:

"hahaha 'buttface' but I bet he's nice though despite all the Scrooge act. Don't worry, you have me if you need to rant or talk about anything, I promise. Yeaaaaa he is. Sydney to be exact. Ooooooo fuuuuun."

she doesn't reply back and it was starting to confuse me. did i type something that insulted her? no. seconds turn to minutes and i am starting to get pretty anxious now. i'm startled when i feel a small gentle tap on my shoulder, snapping out of my scared thoughts. i almost shriek out when the person i see is the freaking dean.

nO I'M NOT WAITING FOR YOUR DAUGHTER TO TEXT BACK OR ANYTHING. hELL NO.

"hello. what's your name?" he asks me calmly. i shut off my phone quickly so he can't see who i was previously texting so then he can't snap my neck off.

"uh hi, niall horan, dean sir." i almost throw in a bow too because that's how frightened i am of his superior being.

"ah, horan. the cricketer?" i nod my head in response, no the freak who can't even catch a ball anymore let alone play cricket. "lovely. your video and entry was surely impressive that's why you're here, and i'm certain you're going to consider staying on here." hell no. i'm leaving as soon as fucking possible mate! however thankfully i don't have to lie to him as his beautiful perfection daughter approaches us. she stares at me for a few seconds and gives me a half smile that makes my insides go all gooey and mushy. cONTROL YOURSELF GOD DAMMIT.

"hi daddy." yes hello baby. oh wait, no you're talking to your actually father not some sex kink wOOPS.

"hello my princess." the dean kisses the top of evelyn's forehead and then turns to me, "okay horan. i'll see you around, keep trying to shine. i'm sure i'll be seeing you on the leader boards sure enough." evelyn's jaw dropped slightly at his words.

and the sad bit was i couldn't even explain myself.

From Evelyn:

"so you're thinking of staying on at the school then? so when you said you hated it and you missed home and you wanted to leave asap that was all lies?"

To Evelyn:

"Most definitely NOT. I still want to leave, but of course I couldn't tell your dad that now could I? I knew you would jump to conclusions. Don't worry :-)"

From Evelyn:

"sure thats not my dad said anyways but wHATEVER. i just don't like the feeling of being used by yet another guy to get into this school or whatever."

To Evelyn:

"ha nO. you silly bum. Why would I use you? I would clearly seduce your dad into butt sex."

From Evelyn:

"nOOOO i did NOT just read that ummmmm"

To Evelyn:

"Tbfh idk why I just said that either babes. I'm bored."

From Evelyn:

"ditto."

-

"lets do something together?"

To Evelyn:

"Hmm idkkkk.."

From Evelyn:

"oh c'mon. you just said yourself you want to leave so there is nothing on risk from seeing me? it's the adrenaline rush and all. prove to me your serious about our friendship."

To Evelyn:

"I'm pretty sure this is blackmail.."

-

"What do you have in mind anyway?"


From Evelyn:

"foooooooooooood."


To Evelyn:

"I've just had dinner."


From Evelyn:

"so?"

-

"you'll burn it off tomorrow, i've seen the program designed for you. it's inTENSE BRO."
