Zach. I want to hate that name, but I can't. Not as I walk out his door, fucked. I climb into my car and rest my head on the wheel. A few tears ecape my eyes as I remember what had happened. I didn't mean to do it. It just kinda, happened. Everytime I'm with Zach, the same thing happens. We always tend to go to far. We-

BABY YOU LIGHT UP MY WORLD LIKE NOBODY ELSE. THE WAY THAT YOU FLIP YOUR HAIR GETS ME OVERWHELMED. BUT WHEN YOU SMILE AT THE GROUND IT AIN'T HARD TO TELL. YOU DON'T KNOW OH, OH, YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR BEAUTIFUL! IF-

"Hey Cassy," I say into my phone.

"Hey Jenny! How's it going?" I hear her upbeat self reply.

"Fine. What is it?"

"Um, what's wrong?"

I don't say anything.

"Jenny, I know something is wrong."

"Cassy, can I call you back later? I really need some time alone."

"Sure," she said souding a bit down. "I'll be at your place with the rest of them in a few hours. We have great news!"

"K. See ya."

"Bye. And take care."

I hit the red end call botton and stare at my phone. The picture of One Direction is slowly fading away.

I get home and run into my bathroom, stripping of my clothes on the way. I get in to my bathtub and turn the shower on. The hot water running down is a great relief. I turn around and let the water run down my back and I close my eyes. As soon as my eyes close the image of being pressed up against the wall comes to my mind. My eyes quickly open. I don't want to be reminded of that horrific night. I just need something to help me get my mind off Zach.

*An hour later*

BABY YOU LIGHT UP MY WORLD LIKE NOBODY ELSE. THE WAY THAT YOU FLIP YOUR HAIR GETS ME OVERWHELMED. BU-

"Cassy?" I say into my phone.

"Open the door, for heaven sakes! We've been out side for an hour!"

I climb out of bed, pulling my shirt on, and make my way over to the door. 

"Where the fuck were you?" Cassy says as I step aside, letting everyone come in.

"Sorry, dude. I was sleeping."

Cassy flips her long brown hair and sits down on my couch. She pats the seat next to her and looks at me. I roll my eyes and sit down.

"So," Sam began. "What's up, Jenny?"

"Nothing. What did you guys want to tell me?" I say, looking at everyone else in the room. "Hey, Alex, love that dress! I always told you that red was your color!"

"Don't try to change the subject, but thanks."

"Jenny, did you sleep with Zach again? Is that it?" Jess asks.

Sigh. "Yeah, kinda." I say, looking down at my lap.

"But, why?" Alex asks.

"Do you even think about us before you two did it?" Cassy asks.

"Guys, I'm sorry. It's just that..I..I..." I couldn't do handle it anymore. Before I could do anything, I felt my cheeks get wet. I cupped my face in my hands and continued crying. After about two minutes of no sound except my sniffles, I felt Cassy's arms around me.

"Oh Jenny, don't cry babe. It's fine,"she whispers.

"Things like this happen sometimes, I know," Alex says.

"We still love you. Right Sam?"

"Hell yeah!"

I glance up and see the rest of them with big smiles on their faces.

"So, do you want to hear the big news?" Jess says.Giving a slight nod with my head, I sit up straight and wip the tears off my tear drenched face.

"Ok, so," Sam begins. "We got tickets to a One Direction concert!!!!"

A smile comes across my face. "When is it?"

"TOMORROW!" They shout.

*Six hours later*

The shopping's done, jewelry's fixed, dinner's eaten. We did everything in those six hours.

As I'm laying across my bed, I wonder why they like One Direcion so much. I mean, all they are is five boys that sing. Nothing more. I pull out my phone and look at the pictures that Alex and Cassy sent me of One Direcion. Ok, maybe they are cute. I look closely at one of my pictures and try to figure out which one of the boys this guy is. He's really cute. His eyes, smile, and nose are beautiful. He's perfect. Giving up one which one he is, I decide to give Jess a call.

"Hey, Jess. You asleep?"

"No. I can't. I keep thinking about tomorrow."

"Um, can you tell me who is who?"

"Wow, Jenny. You don't know that yet?" she asks, laughing.

"Just shut up and tell me."

"Ok. So the blond one's Niall Horan . The one with curly hair is Harry Styles. The one with messy hair is Louis Tomlinson. The one who's hair is really short is Liam Payne. The one with black hair is Zayn Malik. Got it?"

"Yeah. Thanks."

"Great. Good night."

"You too."

I roll over onto my stomach and look at the picture again. Zayn. Wow. That's a beautiful name, and a beautiful person.
