CHAPTER SIX

''What do you want for dinner?'' I asked Naima, who was paying close attention her phone, probably texting Harry, who has been coming over daily since the day we went to the mall.

Ever since that day, I made sure to keep away from Zayn and his girlfriend, which came out to be hard, since he lived next door. I would constantly watch his girlfriend Jessica skip to his door, and him opening it with a kiss. I admit, I hurt. But I got used to it. Even though the guy I liked had a girlfriend, I had to keep strong, not let it get to me. As long as he was happy.

On the other hand, I got quite close with Niall. He showed me around London, we went to a couple of amusement parks, and had a couple of food fights, which was fun since he would just eat everything I threw at him.

''You do realize he lives next door, you can just invite him over for dinner, which you have not yet told me what you want'' I told her.

She didn't pay attention to anything I told her, so I got my phone and dialed Harry's number. ''Hello?'' He answered. ''Harry, do you want to come over for dinner? Naima wont listen to me, I think she misses you'' I teased. ''I'll be there in a sec'' He said quickly. Oh my, that boys got it bad.

Seconds later, the door bell rang. I skipped to the door, expecting to see only Harry, but a frown appeared on my face as I saw Zayn, the person who I was trying to avoid, standing beside Harry with a smile on his face.

''Uh-Come in?'' I said confused. Harry gave me a grin ''He was alone at home, so I thought it would fair, He also sucks at cooking'' Then he walked towards Naima to give her a hug. I smiled at them, then turned my attention to Zayn, who was standing there awkwardly waiting for me to say something.

''Uh-do you want a drink?'' He nodded as a response, following me as I walked into the kitchen. He sat on the stool as I opened my fridge, stood there for a couple of seconds, then turned around when I noticed I didn't know what he wanted. ''Sorry, what do you want exactly?'' I laughed, trying to stay calm, and pertend that I actually wanted him here. ''A coffee would be fine'' He smiled. ''Okay'' I said to myself.

I walked back to the fridge, taking out some milk. I put the coffee in the brewer. When the coffee finished, I poured it into the cup. ''Two sugars'' He said from behind. I muttered a thank you as I put the coffee cup in front of him.

Harry's POV

''Zayn, what are you mopping over?'' ''Nothing'' He muttered. I sat on the sofa, staring at Zayn in confusion. Ever since he met Naima and Scarlett, he started acting wierd, inviting Jessica more than usual, and acting like they were an actual couple. Not that it was a bad thing, but Zayn and Jessica's relationship wasn't real, it was a stunt, and Zayn made it clear that he didn't like Jessica one bit. Now, when there wasn't any paps, he would still be close with her.

''Zayn, honestly, tell me whats wrong'' I told him. He sighed, sitting up from his position, and looked at me.

''Remember in germany when I told you guys I met this girl in America, and I really liked her, but she didn't know about the whole 'One direction' thing?'' I nodded as response, signalling him to continue. ''Well, we never really got to say goodbye, cause she moved somewhere I had no idea, but now I know'' He paused. ''Then whats the problem?'' I asked. He tilted his head back, massaging his temples. ''The problem is, that girl is Scarlett'' My eyes widened in shock. Scarlett was that girl Zayn seemed to be head over heels? But she didn't seem sad when Zayn and Jessica were together, though she did avoid Zayn. ''Shit'' I muttered to myself. I realized, that was the reason Zayn was so MIA lately. He still liked Scarlett. But she probably thought he didn't care about her because of Jessica. My thoughts were interrupted by my phone ringing. Scarlett , It read. I picked up the phone, being careful with Zayn.
