Talia's POV
One week has passed since I witnessed the scene between Harry and the guy and it was now Friday, the day of the frat house party. Everyone was talking about it when I entered the campus and I sat at my usual place next to the coffee machine.
A few minutes later, I hear someone calling my name and I turn around to see Niall walking towards me. He takes a seat next to me and takes a sip of coffee from the cup he is holding.
"Good morning" he greets me with a big smile."Are you going to the frat house party tonight?"
"No, I don't really like going to parties" I tell him and grab my coffee cup from the table.
He shakes his head and says "oh yes, right ! You told me that already, sorry I forgot. I probably told you that I'm not a party guy either" he laughs.
"Yes you actually did" I smile at him.
"Well since we both aren't going to the party, would you like to come and have diner at my house tonight, I told my parents about you and they really want to meet you" he says.
"Yes of course why not!" I gush. I may have sounded a bit silly getting all excited about the idea of going out for diner but I've been in Seattle for more than three weeks already and have barely gotten out of my flat so the idea of meeting new people in here was really great.
"Ok then. See you tonight !" Niall smiles and then gets up from his seat "got to go if I don't want to arrive late to class !"
"You really don't like to be late, don't you ?" I point out.
"Yeah I guess so" he laughs and rushes to his class.

The day goes by quickly and I stand now in front of my closet, nervously searching for something to wear for tonight's diner at Niall's place. I really want to make a good impression on his parents since he is basically my only friend in Seattle. I try on a few dresses and decide to wear a simple white one.
I climb into my car and call Niall so he can tell me his address. I type the address into my phone's GPS navigator and start the car, but it doesn't start. I try again and again but with no results. I groan with frustration, what's with this car ?! It's still brand new !! I feel myself panicking because the car is still fresh out of the vehicle shop and I really don't know anything about how to fix a car. I decide to call Niall again so I can tell him that I might be late if my car doesn't start.
"Hey is everything ok ?" He asks.
"No actually, my car isn't starting and I don't know what's wrong with it "
"Oh.. Wait for me I'll come and see what I can do to help" he immediately says.
"No. You don't have to ! I'll use the bus or something" I say.
"It's late and It's no big deal really! Just text me your address and I'll come and get you"
I thank him and wait for him in the car. I put on some music from my phone and look out the window. It's dark outside and I can barely see anything. I hear a car starting and I turn around to see Harry getting out of his driveway. He's most certainly going to the party, I can pretty much imagine him with a bottle of cheap beer and cheap girls around him. I don't know why I can't stop myself from judging Harry every time I see him. It's like he has that aura around him that basically screams "judge me".
Niall arrives after a few minutes and I go out of my car to greet him.
"Hey, thanks for coming. You really didn't have to" I say and hug him.
