Internally Broken. ( 5SOS fanfic)

Chapter 12

When I got back to my room, Leslie was there sitting on my bed on her phone.

"Where the hell have you been?" I asked only half joking.

She just shrugged and said "with Cal." Then went back to her phone.

Well damn someone's on their period. I thought. Oh well I'll get ready for my... It's not a date so what do you call something like this? A friendly dinner? An outing with an acquaintance? Whatever that doesn't even matter what am I doing with my life?

It's 4 and Luke said we're stopping at 7 so that gives me enough time to get ready.

I started throwing things around in my closet when Leslie asks me what I'm doing.

"I'm getting ready to go out." If she can act icy with me I'll do the same to her.

"With who?"

"Luke."

"Of course you are." she says while rolling her eyes.

"Excuse me?" I ask clearly shocked by her attitude towards this.

"So what are you just going to lead him on? After everything that's happened there is no way you're over anyone let alone ready to start dating again. It's obvious Luke has a small crush on you, and you're taking advantage of the attention. Cal told me how you hurt Luke this morning and you're just going to keep hurting him! Plus you've been with Michael a whole hell of a lot! When did you become a selfish bitch?" Leslie yelled throughout this whole rant.

"Well maybe if you would have just talked to me today then You would know the whole thing this morning was a misunderstanding! Michael and I think of each other as siblings! Luke just happened to walk in on a deep conversation! Go ask both Luke and Michael and they'll tell you what happened! Oh and by the way, I told Luke I wasn't even close to being over Riley and he said he understood and we are just hanging out!"

I yelled back, thoroughly upset that my best friend wouldn't just talk to me about this.

"Whatever." she huffed and walked out of the room.

"Great" I muttered, this just puts the cherry on the cake to my day.

I decide to forget about Leslie for now, and just focus on getting ready.

I search my closet for the right outfit then run into the bathroom. I see a razor on the counter. I'm hypnotized by the shiny blade. I force myself to look away. Leslie is not ruining my day today.

I hop into the shower and and take about twenty minutes to wash my hair with my vanilla shampoo and conditioner, and use my lavender body scrub.

I get out of the shower and wrap my towel around me, and start by towel drying my hair. I put this straightening liquid in my hair so I wouldn't have to use a straightener, and blow dried my hair. I then threw on my black bra and underwear, and a knee length long sleeved black dress with my black flats.

Damn I really do love the color black huh? I then did some light makeup and walked out of the bathroom.

Leslie was back in our room looking a bit guilty but I just ignored her.

"Noel can we talk?" She quietly asked me.

"Oh, now you want to talk? I have a half hour to talk myself out of going to dinner like this is a bad idea because everyone else seems to think it is. But do I have my best friend to talk about this with? No! Because she'd rather listen to a guy she's just met instead of trying to talk to her alleged best friend. So no, I don't want to talk right now."

As I progressed with this, I got louder and louder. I turned around and stomped out of the room to find all the boys staring at me.

"What are you all looking at?" I asked a bit too harshly.

They all looked away, except for Cal and Luke. Luke looked sad that I was fighting with my best friend, and Cal just looked straight up guilty. I rolled my eyes and walked over to him and hugged him, telling him I forgave him for earlier and me and Les fighting wasn't his fault.

It seems I've just been upsetting everyone and causing problems and I've only been here a day. Great.

Seven comes sooner than expected, and as if like clockwork, the bus stops immediately at seven. Luke looks at me excitedly and tells me he's already got our whole night planned. Oh God. What have I gotten myself into?
