Chasing Dreams

Chapter 5

CeCe's POV

Everyone but Lou left, leaving me alone with him. My nose finally stopped bleeding so I got down and threw the paper towels and the now melted ice away. Smiling at Lou I said "I'm going to make some pancakes you can go watch the telle if you want." He nodded and grinned "You know you really are starting to get an accent! How long have you lived in London?" "A year." I stated while taking out the ingredients for pancakes. "It'll be interesting when Alyssa, Ivey, and Hayley get their accents." "Yup!" I smiled while mixing the batter. I grabbed a pan and turned the burner on. I waited for it to heat up then put some batter on it. I'm not the best cook in the world, and pancakes are one of things I can actually make. Though I usually burn them. I bit my lip in concentration as I flipped the pancake, nearly missing the pan. I felt strong arms wrap around my waist, and I jumped in surprise. "Hi Lou," I said quietly. "Hi Sierra," he replied and rested his head on top of mine. I smiled and went to make another pancake. "Here, let me help you." Lou whispered while gently putting his hand over mine. He smiled at me then helped me flip the pancake. I licked my lips nervously and grinned when the pancake was cooked perfectly. "There you go!" He exclaimed. "Thanks Lou!" I said happily. "No problem babe." He replied. Then he winked at me and kissed my cheek before strutting out of the kitchen. I blushed and grabbed two plates and serving Lou and myself some pancakes.

Alyssa's POV

"Ok the only thing left to do is to call a realtor and get the house up for sale!" I exclaimed. Zayn nodded and called the bank. I looked over to see Hayley talking to Harry. She then lifted her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear and smiled at him. I covered my mouth to suppress my giggles and signaled Ivey to come over. "What?" she whispered. I nudged her and pointed at Hayley and Harry. She gasped then started giggling too. "Oh my goodness!" She whispered. "It's not like we didn't see it coming." I smirked. "Yeah but I figured she would be flirting with Harry not the other way around!" She whisper yelled. I cracked up with laughter and she glanced our way. "Shhhhh!" Ivey told me trying to keep a straight face. Zayn gave us an odd look and said "That's taken care of now! Let's go back to the flat." We all got back in the van in this order: Harry driving Hayley in the passenger seat, Liam Niall, and Zayn in the middle row, and Ivey and I in the last row. "Can the girls come over to our house after we pick up Lou and CeCe?" Harry asked Liam. "I don't see why not!" Liam responded. "Can Perrie come too?" Zayn pleaded. "Sure mate!" Liam smiled.

Ivey's POV

After picking up Lou and CeCe we left to the boys' house. "What do you want to do?" Liam asked. "Ooo! Let's watch a horror movie!" Harry exclaimed jumping in the air. My eyes widened "No! No, no, no, no! You can't make me! I will get nightmares for weeks!" I shouted. Alyssa nodded in agreement. "Let's take a vote. All in favor of watching a horror movie?" Zayn said. Everyone but Alyssa and I rose their hands. "All opposed?" Zayn asked and Alyssa and I shot our hands in the air. "Looks like your outvoted seven to two. Sorry! You can go to another room if you would like." Zayn told us. Alyssa shook her head and gulped "Nah. I guess I'll try it." "Well I'm out! I'll go watch My Little Ponies!" I replied. Hayley giggled at my choice. "Yeah I'm 18 and I watch My Little Ponies! Don't hate!" I retorted. Alyssa looked at me with regret in her eyes. I know she really hates horror movies. She is as bad as me when it comes to things like that, and I can't watch A Haunting during the night. "You SURE you don't want to join me Alyssa?" I asked giving her a second chance to get away. She thought about it then shook her head to say she was sure. Oh well...... With that I skipped off upstairs opening the room furthest away from them. I looked around to see a flag on the wall and knew exactly where I was: Niall's room.

Alyssa's POV

I sat next to Liam on the love seat that the boys moved so we could see. I absolutely HATE horror movies, but I really wanted to spend time with the boys. "Let's watch The Ring!" Lou said. Everyone agreed, except me, and he put it in the DVD player and hit play. 20 minuets into the movie my breathing became heavier and my eyes were glued to the T.V. screen. "You alright, love?" Liam whispered. "I'm fine." I replied before jumping badly. "No your not! Come here!" He whispered back while opening his arms. I scooted closer to him and rested my head on his shoulder. He then picked me up and put me on his lap wrapping his arms around my waist. I sighed happily and turned my head toward the television.

*30 minuets later*

Hayley's POV

We were at the part where the girl climbed out of the T.V. and attacks the main character's boyfriend. Alyssa started trembling and turned ghostly white. The demon crawled on the floor and Alyssa whimpered. Then right when creepy girl was about to attack Alyssa screamed and buried her head in Liam's chest and started to sob. "Guys turn it off!" I yelled. Zayn shot up from the couch and turned the movie off. I heard stomping down the stairs and looked up to see Ivey running into the room. "Is it ove-" she cut herself off when she say the state Alyssa was in. "What happened?" She asked concerned as we watched Liam rub her back and whisper calming words into her ear. "The movie scared her." Niall explained. Ivey nodded and went into the kitchen pulling Niall with her. Alyssa was calming down and was just sniffling with the occasional hiccup. Ivey walked back in with a steaming cup of tea. "Here hun, this should help." She said soothingly while handing the tea to Alyssa. Alyssa nodded and sat up so she could drink the beverage. She set the tea down on the coffee table and rubbed her eyes, making it look like she was 5. Liam smiled at her adoringly and rubbed her back. Alyssa yawned and snuggled back into Liam's chest. "You girls can crash here tonight, we have the rest of November off and half of December." He said while playing with Alyssa's wavy brown hair. We all nodded and got settled in the living room. I saw Liam kiss the top of Alyssa's head before Nialler turned the lights of wishing everyone goodnight and went to his spot next to Ivey. They are so cute. I thought before closing my eyes and drifting off to sleep
