Chapter 1

It was late one winter night when I was walking home from the library. I had a paper to write and of course the best place to write was the library.

I had on my huge winter coat, not very stylist but super warm. My dirty blonde hair was blowing like crazy from the wind and I could barely see through the snow. I slipped and fell flat on my face. Good thing no one was here to see that! I thought to myself.

Then, all of a sudden, a felt a hand grab under my arms and pull me up to my feet. I looked down and noticed I ripped my tights and was pretty upset considering those were my favorite pair, navy blue ones with red flowers. I sighed and looked up to this face with piercing blue eyes. Probably the prettiest eyes I've ever seen.

"Sorry, I saw you fall and it looked like you needed some help..." he said quietly.

I looked at him for a while then realized I was staring and shook my head. "Yeah, yeah no problem. Thanks."

"Yeah.. So I'll see you around?" he asked with a look a desperate in his eye.

"Um, yeah. Do you go to school here?" I asked patiently.

"Er, no. I'm just here for a concert." he replied.

"Oh, yeah those winter concerts. Forgot. Well thanks again. I must get to my dorm. My friend is waiting. Gotta pick out outfits- girl stuff."

He laughed. " Alright. I'm Niall though." He stuck his hand out and I shook it.

"Avia." I replied. He smiled then walked away.

Just something about those wonderful eyes got to me.

I returned to my dorm to find it a mess covered in clothes, my clothes.

"Amanda, what are you doing exactly?!"

I heard someone come out of the bathroom.

"I need a dress for the concert tomorrow! One Direction are performing!" she shrieked.

"Oh, yeah! I met a guy a while ago who was here for the concerts. He was

nice," I said smiling.

"Ooooo you like him?!?" Amanda replied.

"No he was just nice. That's all. Most guys aren't nice to me considering I'm not the skinniest, prettiest girl out there."

"Liar. You're gorg." Amanda said.

"Thanks dude." I replied with a knowing grin.

"So what are you wearing girl?!" Amanda said.

"Well I was going to wear my blue sweater, coral skirt, and these tights but as you can see, they're ripped."

She looked down and frowned. "Maybe we can find new ones?" I shook my head and went into the bathroom and changed.

I looked at myself in the mirror and don't like the reflection staring back. Too big of eyes, too cubby face. A body that I would never want to show for.

I pulled my short blonde hair back and took my make up off. I grabbed my pajamas with little cupcakes on them and put them on.

When I came out of the bathroom our room was surprisingly clean. Amanda was laying on the ground reading a fanfic.

"You cleaned?!?"

"Well duh. Now leave me alone I need to read my fanfic!" she yelled.

"Right..." I said laughing and went to sit on my bed. I pulled open my laptop but couldn't focus on anything because of the boy I met. His eyes were so beautiful and his accent made my heart melt. Man I'm a sucker for accents.

I was very excited about the One Direction concert tomorrow also. I wasn't a huge fan but I knew a lot of their the songs and the fact they decided to come to my college for our winter concerts, shocked me considering how huge they were in the U.S.

I quickly shut my laptop and grabbed my iPod. I put on Moments by One Direction and thought the blonde haired boy looked familiar. He had very pretty eyes. Really familiar eyes...

I lied down and even though it was only 10 I dozed off.
