On the Course of True Love
Chapter 1: All About Tonight.
Jamie's POV
It's the last Friday of the summer, and I for one am intending on making it count. As I take one last good look at myself in front of the mirror, I feel quite proud with my outfit. I was wearing jean cutoffs, a plain white v-neck tee and some bright red toms. Simple, cute and age appropriate for my 16 year old, brunette haired body. To say I'm excited for Niall's beach bonfire party was an understatement. I don't really know what to expect but Niall's party are always fun so I can't wait to get dancing. I'm really hoping to catch a certain curly haired, dimpled boy's attention.
Tonight was the night I'm going to make him regret not noticing me before.
As I put on one last layer of lip gloss, I heard my sister Elizabeth screaming downstairs.
"Jamie! Hurry up, will you? We still have to set up for the party!" Liz screamed at the top of her lungs.
One last glance at myself and I was out the door, slamming the door behind me. As I make my way towards the stairs, I could tell that Liz couldn't wait to leave. I sighed exasperatedly.
"Oh please, Liz, give me a break. You'll probably just end up making out with Haz in some random corner" I replied as I rolled my eyes.
Harry. The person of my affection. So here's the break down on Harry Styles:
Liam, Niall, Lou and Zayn are his best and closest mates.
He's the flirtiest, cheekiest boy you will ever meet.
He's dating my sister, Liz, for about 5 months now.
He has the most beautiful green eyes, most breath taking smile and he has signature curly hair.
And he has absolutely stolen my heart.
I know it's wrong but I'm in love with that boy. We've known each other since I was 8 and he was 9. . I'm a year younger from everybody else but my circle of friends doesn't bother it as much since I'm mostly in advanced classes. I've known Hazza for half my life and never has there been a day where he hasn't made me smile. So when I found out 5 months ago that he decided to ask out my sister, my heart was absolutely smashed. I don't blame him though; Liz is gorgeous compared to me. She's like the typical teenage goddess, blonde hair, blue eyes and a perfect smile. Today, she is wearing a floral summer dress that made me absolutely jealous of her athletic and lean body. I've told her numerous times that she should work for Hollister; she'd be perfect for that. She just has that infectious charm that draws people to her.
"Helloooo! Earth to Jamie! Are you just gonna stand there or are we gonna get going?" Liz says, snapping her fingers and snapping me out of my thoughts.
"Oh sorry, I'm ready now." I replied as I made my way downstairs.
"Your outfit is really cute, trying to get a lad's attention, perhaps?"
I let out a nervous giggle. If you only knew…
We climbed insider her black Audi that she got as a present last year. I have a Range Rover but sadly, I don't have my license yet, so I can't drive it. Liz shot me a quick look.
"Excited?"
"Yeah" I breathed out as the engine roared.
The drive to Niall's beach house was quick. Let's just say that Liz has a need for speed. We rounded the corner and I spotted Niall's beach house straight away. It was your typical beach house, nothing too fancy. Totally perfect for a teen party. See my group of friends, we're pretty lucky. We've grown up from wealthy families and we go to a private academy, but it's not like we're snobby or anything. We're anything but snobs actually; our families made sure that we're always volunteering and are involved in the community. This is really helpful cause that usually meant fun parties without the really drunk douches ruining it. To be invited to Niall's bonfire is an honor and a privilege. You won't see slutty dressed slags here, well most of the time. Niall's end of summer party is definitely one of the hottest parties and go-to parties of the year.
As we pull up to the driveway, the small of the ocean salt hits me. I took a deep breath to calm my edge. I couldn't wait to see Harry.
"Ready?" Liz asks.
"Absolutely."I replied, but my shaky voice betrayed me.
When we came up to the front door, we didn't even have to ring the doorbell. As soon as we came up, there was Lou, engulfing us in a big bear hug.
"You're finally here!" he exclaims in his obnoxious, Lou-ish way, then letting us go. He stepped aside to let us in.
"Well, this is the place to be night, right? Why the hell won't we be here? It's tradition" Liz says then flashing her perfect smile then going inside, probably to find Harry.
"Hiya, Jamie! Looking good!" Louis said, finally talking to me.
"Heya, Lou! Is everybody here yet?" I asked, looking around the living room straight ahead.
"Zayn just landed from his flight, so he should be here soon. So far it's just you, me, Liz, Haz, Liam and Niall of course. Livy should be here soon too."
Olivia or Livy for short is Louis's girlfriend. They've been going out for two years strong now. They are absolutely adorable, but they're your typical cheesy couple that makes single people like me feel jealous. Lou loves to spoil Olivia, it's really cute cause you can see by the way they look at each other that they're totally in love. They have the kind of relationship that you envy and want for yourself and you hope that one day, you'll have that too.
"Oh, okay, cool. Is everything set up for the party yet?" I asked
"Well let's see, do you really expect 4 boys to do that?" Louis replied with a sheepish grin on his face.
I rolled my eyes.
"Oh c'mon, you know we need your expertise. Really, we've been here an hour and a half and all we've been doing is playing pokemon. We're useless. Please work some Jamie magic. Please. Or else we'd be in total shit. The party's in an hour!" He pleaded. And just like on cue, I heard the shouts of Liam and Niall, obviously still on their DS. Such children. I swear these boys have brains of 7 years old.
"You have a way with words, , but I'm only gonna work if everyone else does." I said smirking, totally loving the praise that I'm getting from Lou.
"Done!" He said as he gave me a cheshire grin.
Louis turned his back from me shouted.
"Liam! Harry! Niall! Jamie said we better get started. NOW! But not before a huge welcoming hug!"
I saw Niall and Liam run straight for us, with Harry and Liz right behind them. I noticed their red flushed cheeks and swollen lips, but I didn't get to contemplate their looks much because before I knew what was happening, I was engulfed in a group hug that constricted my air. What did I tell you? Such children. But I loved it anyways. I can't wait for what the evening's going to bring.
Yeah the night is alive, you can feel the heartbeat. Let's just go with the flow, we've been working all week. Tomorrow doesn't matter when you're moving your feet. It's all about tonight
