PLEASE LOOK AT THE LINKS IN MY COMMENT DOWN BELOW TO SEE KIMMY'S OUTFITS!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Kimberly's POV~
"I told him no" I whispered quietly, crying to stop the tears that have been falling since I ran from the theater after the interview. After the whole thing with Zayn I ran to my favorite hiding place, knowing I couldn't go to the café to talk to Kristi cause Lin was working and I didn't want to bother Melody at the library so I went to the next best place I could think of that no one knew of.
"What do you mean you said no?" Linnea asked snapping me out of my thoughts.
"I-I mean I said n-no.. We were at a-an interview, and they were just about to g-go on when Zayn asked me a-and I-I had to to tell him no.." I cried sadly. "The look on his face through the whole interview was heart breaking... The car ride back to the theater was so silent I about went mad.... When we got back to the theater I tried to talk to him but he ignored me, so I-I ran.." I said sadly looking down at me hands. I don't know why I was telling Lin this, I was supposed to be mad at her..
"I understand that Kimmy, but why did you say no?" She asked wrapping her arm around my shoulders and shifting me into her side.
That was actually a good question. Why did I turn him down? I'm not really sure myself... What was I thinking when I said no? Was it Louis' "No dating the band" rule, or maybe I was thinking the fans would hate me if I said yes? Or was I just to scared to fall in love again?
"Kimmy?" Linnea said waving her hand in front of my face. "Earth to Kim."
"W-What? Sorry... I-I honestly don't know why I told him n-no..." I said quietly looking up at my sister. "I like him.. I really do.. But I said no... Linny why did I say no?" I cried and Linnea pulled my close and I buried my head in her shoulder, crying more then I have ever cried since my parents died.
"Shhh.. I don't know Kimmy.. But it'll be okay, I promise..." She said rubbing my back and stroking my hair.
~The Next Morning~
I woke up tucked under a bunch of blankets, I glanced around tiredly. This isn't my room? I sat up rubbing my eyes and looked around the tidy room, why was I in Linneas room? I rubbed my eyes and got up from the bed, walking into Lins bathroom and looking in the mirror. God, I looked terrible! My hair was litteraly a nest, my eyes were red and puffy, and I had makeup smears running down my cheeks with tear stains. As I stared at myself in the mirror I started remembering the events of yesterday. I glared at the mirror and fought back the tears. I washed my face quickly and brushed my hair till it was smooth and straight. I walked out of the room and towards the kitchen.
"Linnea?" I called out but was met with silence, I frowned and looked around the kitchen till i saw a piece of paper on the table with Linneas neat hand-writing on it.
"Went to sort some things out. I promise I'll be back soon. There's ice cream in the fridge and movies on the coffee table if you want. Love you, Linnea"
I smiled a bit and set the note down, I walked over to the fridge and pulled open the freezer and saw a big carton of Ben & Jerry's "Phish Food" my favorite. I grabbed a spoon and walked into the living room and sat on the couch, pulling a blanket around me after I put in a random movie.
Hours later I was half asleep and full of ice cream as I laid on my side on the couch with the tv playing in the background and twitter pulled up on my phone. I looked at the latest tweet to see it was from Zayn..
"@zaynmalik: When you're dreaming with a broken heart, The giving up is the hardest part. She takes you in with your crying eyes, Then all at once you have to say goodbye. Wondering could you stay my love? Will you wake up by my side? No she can't, 'cause she's gone..."
I frowned a bit at the tweet before quickly closing my twitter, right as my phone started buzzing and Linneas name popped up.
"Linnea?" I asked and was met with a couple seconds of silence before she answered.
"Sorry Kimmy, may be longer then I thought. Didn't realize it was going to be so difficult sorting this stuff out." She said and I sat there a bit confused.
"What do you mean? Sort what stuff out?"
"Listen Kimmy, I gotta go. I'll call you as soon as I'm on my way home alright? I love you" Then the line went dead. What the hell was that about? I sighed shrugging and went to my room to get dressed, deciding to go out for a bit to clear my head. I got dressed and pulled my hair up before grabbing my keys and bag and heading out. I walked aimlessly around for a while till I ended up in a park. I smiled a bit and sat on the kiddy swing. I pushed of the ground and sat there in peace for a while. I saw a movement out of the corner of my eye and looked over to see someone grabbing my bag where I set it down.
"Hey! Leave that alone!" I yelled hopping up and running towards the guy who was messing with my purse, he jumped up and away from my bag with his hands up.
"Sorry! I didn't know it was yours! I didn't see you honest!" He said backing away from my bag as I grabbed it quickly taking a step back.
"Uh huh. Now give me back what you took." I spat at him
"I didn't take anything!"
"I'm not an idiot, I saw you slip it in your pocket! Give it back."
"Smart one you are." He said with a small smile and reached in his pocket, pulling out a protean bar before turning his pockets inside out to show he had nothing else. "Here." He said holding it out to me.
"A proten bar? That's all you took." I asked a bit confused. he simple nodded. "Why did you take that?"
"Emm... heh.." He rubbed the back of his neck looking down embarrassed. "I don't have any money.. Haven't really eaten in a couple days.." He admitted quietly. Something about told me he wasn't lying..
"Keep it then." I said and he looked up at me.
"Really?"
"Sure, you need it more then I do. Besides it's just a protean bar, it's not like it was my iPod or something." I said with a small smile.
"Thanks. Name's Hunter by the way." He held out his hand and I hesitated before taking it.
"Kimberly." I replied shaking his hand.
"Pretty name for a pretty girl. Nice to meet you." He said before dropping my hand and sitting on one of the swings. "So what is a girl like you doing out here all by yourself?" Hunter asked as I took a seat on the sing next to him.
"Clearing my head." I admitted. "Boy crap." I said with a little laugh.
"I know how that feels" he laughed and I looked over at him giving him an odd look. "Oh, yeah probably should have mentioned that I'm Gay..." He said and my mouth formed a little 'O' as I nodded.
"Oh, okay. Cool, never met a gay guy before." I said smiling at him.
"Wait, you don't hate me?" He asked sounding surprised.
"No why would I? There is nothing wrong with being gay."
"Wow.. You're the first person who wasn't disgusted with me.." He admitted. "Everyone hated me once I told them.."
"Even your parents?"
"Especially my parents. When I told them they got so mad and said I'm not their son and that no son of theirs is gay, so they kicked me out. I could never anyone to take me in cause apparently everyone I know is a homophobic twat." He sighed.
"Well not everyone you know." I said bumping my shoulder against his as we swung lazily on the swing.
"Yeah I guess." He said chuckling before turning to me. "So tell me about your boy problems, maybe I can help?"
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." I said looking over at him.
"Try me." He said smirking. Should I tell him? I mean I just met him, I don't really know him at all, but he seems like a nice enough guy...
"Well.. You know the band One Direction?"
"Know them? Girl I love them!" He exclaimed, sounding a lot like a teenage girl. I laughed and continued.
"Well my sister works at this little box theater that they're rehearsing at. And in the couple of days we knew them we went through so much crap, and my sister kinda quit. So she left that after giving me her job of taking care of the theater and being on of the guys assistants. She took my job leaving me with the five idiots so I've been running around trying to take care of them, which should of been my sisters job. Then yesterday at their interview one of the guys, Zayn, asked me out but I said no... But my problem is, I don't even know why I said no! I don't know if I thought the fans would hate me, or maybe he was trying to get to my sister through me, cause you know she has two of the other guys running after her! Or maybe because my "boss", meaning Louis since Linnea gave me her job as his assistant, would get mad because he has this "no dating anyone in the band" rule which honestly didn't really work out when this my sisters job since both him and Harry kissed her. And another is even if I did say yes we could really do anything since I'm only sixteen and he's nineteen so it would technically be illegal since he's a legal adult and I'm not.." I explained and looked over to see Hunter nodding with a thoughtful look.
"So pretty much you're pissed at your sister for ditching her job, shoving it all on you, and you're scared of what people would think if you said yes so you're gonna break both your hearts to keep people from hating you?" He asked and I frowned but nodded slightly.
"Yeah... I guess that's about right.." I said slowly thinking over everything.
"Well, I don't know what to tell you about your sister, but as for you and Zayn I say pack up your sorry little butt. Go find your man and make him yours without giving a damn what people think!" He exclaimed.
"W-Wha.. I do-.. I don't-" I stuttered before Hunter cut me off.
"Give me your phone." He said holding out his hand. I stared at him confused and he sighed. "Give me you're phone so I can start my fantastic plan!" He exclaimed and I slowly pulled out my phone and handed it to him. He snatched it out of my hand. I stood up and looked over his shoulder to see him typing out a message to Zayn.
"Meet me at Olive Garden in 2 hours. I want to talk to you." He hit send before giving me back my phone, jumping up, grabbed my bag and started pulling me out of the park.
"Now come on, time to make you look beautiful!" He said and started pulling me to the apartment (after he had made me tell him)
An hour and 45 minutes later of my trying on different outfits and doing my hair and make-up Hunter was pulling me towards the Olive Garden. Once we were outside I looked in the windows and spotted Zayn sitting alone at one of the tables in the back nervously stirring his water.
"Alright." Hunter said making me move my gaze from Zayn to him. "You're going to go in there, and talk to him and try to get a date. And if he turns you down then he is in a load of trouble, cause girl I will not stop till that boy is yours!" He exclaimed and I laughed at his sassy attitude. I stepped forward and gave him a quick hug.
"Thank you Hunter." I said before stepping back.
"Call me later?" He said holding up the old, broken, but still useful phone I had given him.
"Of course. Thanks again." I said as I slowly made my way inside. I took a deep breath and walked towards Zayn. He looked up and his eyes lit up slightly.
Here goes nothing...
