Love & The City
Could this be love?
Hey Lisa
I haven't seen Niall all week which feels just weird since we used to spent so much time together. I don't think there's something wrong with us though, because we're always texting and videochatting. Of course it sucks it's just not the same as a real conversation and I hate not being able to cuddle up to him, but we are both just so busy right now. I realised I had more catching up to do than I thought and well he is a global superstar, he's kind of always engaged in something.
Tonight's the night, I'm so happy to see him again, even if this Lindsay girl will be around. That's a very strange story about her and Harry. You know, she told Anne and me that Harry and her were dating or at least something like that, but he says he doesn't even like her. I know what you probably think know, everyone thinks he's a heartbreaker and everything, but I actually think he's different. Yes, I've only known him for a month or so, but it seemed very believable when he said he flirted with her a bit on this night out and that brought her home because he was afraid she was too drunk and I also think he's a gentleman who would never let a girl walk home alone. Anyways, she gave him her number and he called her up the next day to make sure she was alright. But since then they have never seen each other again, she just texted him all of the time and he sometimes replied because he said he'd feel guilty if he didn't answered at all. Well that's Harry's version of the whole story. Anne thinks Lindsay is now using me to get closer to him, but I mean who would do that? Of course I am aware that Harry is very popular with the girls, but what's in it for someone he doesn't really like?
I have to go pick an outfit now, Niall, Harry, Lindsay, Louis and Eleanor will be going to that really fancy sushi place tonight (Yeahj Eleanor, I missed her lots! But don't worry I won't forget about you with all these great friends I found. No one could ever replace you)
Wish me luck ;*
P.S.: I hate you, I still can't belive you got together with Anton!! And seeing that none of you has changed their relationship status or posted kitschy messages with an overload of hearts on the other's wall I suppose it's going well? ;)
Love, love, love ya
I shut down my laptop and check my alarm clock. Shit 6 pm already? I haven't even taken a shower and the car will be here at 7:30.
Mental note: Tell Lisa that I got picked up by a limo. That'll teach her, no one dates the hottest guy in town without me outdoing them, hehe.When I come back, this guy will have to face a fucking inquisition!
"Ok how's this?" I ask Anne at 7:25.
"You look stunning and you wouldn't have time to change anyways" She sticks out her tongue.
"And you are sure you don't want to come with us?"
"To spend my friday night with three couples? No thanks, I'm going out with some of the girls from my ecology classes. Text if you wanna join us"
"I will, have fun tonight!"
"You too"
The doorbell rings.
"Now get your hot ass out of here and spend the night with your lover, your common friends and our best friend Lindsay" She gives me a slap on my buttom
"Hey! I'll ignore the 'lover' and just say that maybe Lindsay is not as bad as you think. I mean she's studying, so she's supposed to have some brains at least!"
"Her father is rich remember?" She gives me a meaningful look while shooing me out of the door .
A man in a black suit opens the door of the limousine for me, how does anyone ever get used to this?!
"Thankyou" I smile at him and get in the car. Argh, I should have thought of that when I put on a skirt and high heels :/ Careful not to make a fool of myself I get in the car.
"Heeeey!" "Hi" "Heyo!" Eleanor (the skirt one), Harry, Niall and Louis greet me all of them with huge smiles.
"Hi" I reply laughing, a little bit nervous with everyone looking at me while awkwardly trying to get into a car without revealing my underwear to the world. I hope I dressed appropriately... The boys clearly matched their outfits, which is fine and Eleanor looks classy as always, I couldn't keep up with her ever.
I sit down next to Niall who sits closest to the door and he lays his arm around my shoulder, kisses me on the the cheek and whispers "You look beautiful" into my ear.
I can't help grinning like a Cheshire cat, what was I worried about again?
"I was just talking to the boys about maybe hitting a few clubs afterwards, what do you think Sophie? Wanna recreate our first memorable night together?" Eleanor asks with a cheeky wink.
"Why not? Could be lots of fun. Maybe we could meet up with Anne, she's going somewhere tonight"
Everyone nodds or utters something affirmative.
The driver stops in a posh neighbourhood. Wow, I have no clue where we are but I know I'll probably never live here. I see Lindsay coming out of the door which is held open for her by a doorman - fancy. She gets in and sits down opposite to me, next to Harry.
"Hey everyone" She greets and I don't hear a hint of insecurity with herself. Why would she be, she slid into the limousine with... grace is the word that describes it best. Did she take classes on 'how to get into a car properly'? We all return her greeting, but I imagine there is not as much excitement in the others' voices as when I came in.
I should really stop that, just because she is rich and graceful doesn't mean she can pull me down and I have to make up reasons why I'm better than her. So I decide to start a casual conversation with her
"Hey, how's your week been? I haven't seen you in Uni since monday"
"Oh yeah, it's been very stressfull. We had to prepare a show in my designing classes and for one of the arts professors we had to 'create something that reflects our personality'. In the end I just handed in some of my designs from the first to the latest ones, because that is who I am. Putting up the show was much more challenging, the models were absolute bullshit and this so called 'DJ' had no clue what he was doing! Luckily I could get some of my Dad's business contacts to help and in the end it all came out just like I had planned." She closes her little speech with a proud and confident smile.
I don't know what to say, this just revealed so much I didn't know. So, she studies Arts and Designs and when she wants something very badly, she gets it in the end - with the help of her father as it seems, but also I think she is targeted herself. I feel slightly guilty, because I thought she was just another one of these wannabes without a personality.
"Oh wow, that sounds like you had a lot of things to do... Did you get any feedback yet?"
"Not officially, but my show got a standing ovation and I know this pleased smirk on my arts professor's face, so I have nothing to worry about" She leans back and strokes Harry's face "Tell me about your week, cutie?"
Wow, really? She just tells me about her perfect life and then doesn't even bother asking me how I am?
Niall seemingly notices my change of mood towards her and squeezes my arm. "Did you get that paper back yet? The one about Emily Dickinson?"
"No, not yet. I hope I have done her justice..."
"I'm sure you have! Did you finish your essay on Kant already?"
"Nearly, but I'll probably rewrite it another thousand times. He had a genius mind, but he could have expressed his thoughts in an easier language!"
"At least you can read his original works, every translation I read of him is slightly different because 'Translation is Interpretation'." Eleanor sighs
"You know what really makes me feel bad? I read some of the English texts the professor gave us and hardly understand a word, so I read it in German and discover that everything I thought I understood is completely different there. That is when I feel like a complete moron!"
Louis laughs "I'm sure you're at least a bit smart, regarding how far you've already come with your studies"
I sigh "I honestly hope so"
While the four of us chat along, Lindsay completely ignores us and doesn't stop bombarding Harry with questions. He answers them curtly and after a while she gives up and tries to join our conversation. I have the feeling that no one is particularly happy about her interference but we all stay polite.
After a while we arrive at our destination and get out. We enter the restaurant and as Lindsay mentions our reservation, we are led to exclusive seats at the bar where we can watch how our food is made. I have to admit that this demonstration slows our conversation down. I am distracted by the events and Niall is probably raptured by the food. But I don't mind, it feels great just to sit here with him close to me, sometimes stroking over my arm or knee and caressing my face absentmindedly. Who even cares about Lindsay, as long as he's with me I don't care who else is. Could this be love?
