MELANIE RICHARDS
I hold my tears as I see Alice sitting on the bench on the porch. I sigh before slowly walk towards her and sit next to her, I lean forward to take a look of her face. She looks angry but not devastated. "Hey." I tighten my grip on the bench as I lean in towards to see her full face.
"What do you want?" She says in her most cool way.
"I'm sorry."
"What are you sorry for? Me? You're feeling sorry for me? Because, I'm sorry, I thought you guys aren't together anymore so I could lie to you about being together with Niall. See, he didn't even let me sleep in the same bed with him. It's true though, he will never see me more than a friend. I like him too much." She sighs.
"Well, I feel like shit too." I remark as she chuckles.
"Definitely." She sighs.
"Hey, there is still someone that looks after you. You're really pretty. I'm still shocked why Niall left you in the first place." I shake my head, looking upon the quiet driveway.
"Thank you, I really need that, though." She pinches the bridge of her nose. "You should see him."
"No, I don't." I scrunch my nose, looking at her who is in confusion.
"Did I do something? God, I'm so sorry, Melanie." She sighs.
"It's okay, it's okay." I nod, flickering my eyes to the quiet driveway.
"He still wants to see you."
"What part of he wants to see me is true, if he slammed the door at me?" I laugh. I love Niall, I really do and it's heartbreaking to see him did that to me, but I don't like the idea of him bragging Thomas into our little situation which doesn't include Thomas at all, that makes me furious than ever.
"Oh, well," She chuckles. "Do you want to go out? Just have fun." She shrugs.
"Sure, it's not like that I'm busy or anything," I smile at her who is nodding.
"Great, great. I'll pick you up at 8? And I'm guessing at Niall's dad?" She assures as she sits up straight.
"Okay, should I, um. . . dress up?"
"Well, yeah, we are going to the club, girl!" Alice says with her best American accent. Club? I don't think so. Especially with someone that Niall despises.
"I don't know, Alice. . ."
"Why? Come on, we should have some fun! It's not going to kill you or anything and I promise to take you home before midnight. Consider me as your fairy godmother." She assures. I slowly nod and fake laugh as I stand on my foot. Alice offers me to drive to Bob's house so I allow her to. She's actually really nice and I just caught a misjudgement. We talk and joke along the drive and even though Niall is still bothering my mind, I feel that we are not going to end up like this. It's just a little situation and even if I hate to finish this on my own, I kind of feel like I have to.I have to explain the whole thing.
When Alice parks on the driveway, I exchange bye's and quickly get in the house. I use the back door, so I don't have to knock on the front door to bother Marcus from watching a football match. I run upstairs to take a shower and I catch myself thinking about the last time I had been to a club, it ended up fucking Niall. Well, Niall is not going to be there so I figured that I don't have to look so seductive but still look like trying. I put on a black tight dress I brought from home, just in case. . .
