One Direction One Shots & Imagines

Secret - Niall Horan

"Brooke, get your cute little ass over here." I rolled my eyes and turned around. "I'm in the middle of something, Harold. Whatever you need can wait." I turned back towards the sink and continued to wash the dishes. I heard some shuffling from the other room and I knew Harry was on his way into the kitchen. "Brooke, the dishes can wait. I need you to watch the game with me." I laughed. Harry liked to think I was his good luck charm when it came to sports. He was crazy. "Otherwise, you will be the worst best friend ever." I turned the water off and spun around so I was facing him. "You already got that roll covered." His jaw dropped as I smirked and walked past him. "Hey that was mean. Take it back." I shook my head as I heard my ringtone start to play.

It was Niall. "Hey Nialler. What's up?" I turned around to face Harry and I saw him give me a puzzled look. "Yeah I am so in. I will see you at ten." I ended the call and threw my phone on the couch. "I'm going to Niall's for a movie night. I'll see you tomorrow morning." I started to make my way towards my room when Harry ran around me and stopped me in the middle of my tracks. "Why do you hang out with Niall so much? I didn't even know you guys were that close." I nodded. "Yeah, were good friends. I didn't know that was an issue."

After changing into some leggings and one of Liam's hoodies that I stole ages ago, I was knocking on the door to Niall's place. He opened the door and stepped aside so I could enter. I began to walk towards the living room and he followed after closing and locking the front door. "Babe, come back here." I smiled and turned around. "I missed you Brooke. I missed you a lot." He leaned in and gently pressed his lips against mine. As he started to pull away, I grabbed the back of his neck and brought him back to where he just was. "I missed you too." I could feel him smiling against my lips.

"I wish we could do this more often." I pulled back and started to walk towards the couch. "Babe, what's wrong?" He sat down on the couch next to me. "You're the one who doesn't want anyone to know about us. I want to be able to tell everyone, including my best friend; you don't. So I really don't want to hear you complain about keeping us a secret."

I crossed my arms and started at the television that wasn't even turned on. I felt his arm sling around my shoulder as he scooted closer towards me on the couch. "Babe, look at me. If Harry found out about us, he would hate me forever. You're technically off limits, remember?" I looked at him. "Then I guess being friends with Harry is more important than me. I knew you wouldn't want to tell him in the beginning, but it has been six months. It makes me feel like you're embarrassed of me. So if after six months, you don't have the balls to tell anybody about us, I'm done. I'm done being used." I got up and walked out.

I woke up with puffy eyes and mascara stained dried tears all over my pillow. "Brooke, are you okay? You were a mess last night and I want to make sure you're okay." I saw the way too familiar mop of curls in the doorway. I sat up as Harry walked over and sat next to me. "I just got a lot of hate last night. A lot of girls are jealous that I am the bestest friend of the one and only Harry Styles and that I get to live with him." I chuckled and then there was a knocking on the front door. "Brooke. You can't keep ignoring me. We have to talk about this." It was Niall. "What the hell is he talking about Brooke?" I shook my head. "I don't know. But I'll go find out."

I walked out of the room and down the halls in my super attractive onesie. I opened the door. "Shut up Niall. I told Harry the reason I am upset is because of hate from the fans. I didn't screw you over. You wanted it be a secret, so it will always be one, unless you don't shut up." He pushed past me and into my place. "Harry!" Harry came walking down the hall. "What do you want Niall?" Niall wrapped his arm around my waist. "I am in love with Brooke. We have been together for the past six months. And last night, she broke up with me because I wanted to keep us a secret because I didn't want you to hate me. But she made me so happy and I can't imagine life without her." He pressed his lips to my forehead. "She is my everything."

Harry just stared at us in shock for what seemed like forever. He didn't say anything but walked towards us until he was standing right in front of us. "Hurt her, and you die." And with that, he walked away. Niall squeezed me and hugged me tightly. Harry stopped and turned around. "Oh and one more thing. No more secrets." He smirked and left Niall and I happier than ever.
