Chasing Dreams

Chapter 12

CeCe's POV

Louis dragged me to a photo both that was located in the middle of the mall. "It'll be fun!" He exclaimed. I giggled as we ran to the booth, him holding my wrist, and hopped in. I sat on his lap so that we were closer in hight.We chose the blue stripped background and pressed the green button the said 'Go'. The first picture was nice, he rested his chin on the top of my head both of us with big grins. The next one we did duck faces, which reminded me of Alyssa. Then for the last one I kissed his check, blushing afterwards realizing what I did. As it was printing our roll of photos Lou turned to me and surprised me, "You missed." He said cheekily. "What?" I questioned confused. "You kissed my cheek, not my lips." He stated as it was obvious. "You missed." He winked at me and leaned down, making our foreheads touch. "Wanna know a secret Sierra?" Lou whispered, his minty breath hitting my face. I smiled and whispered back "sure." He looked me in the eyes and smiled "I never miss my target." He closed his eyes and his soft pink lips met mine. I turned my head to the side a little and leaned into his touch. We jumped apart when the curtains were pulled back. "Sorry!" The girl squeaked. "It's alright hun!" Lou said. "Here you can use the booth now." He said taking my hand and pulling me out of the booth. My eyes went wide. Holy crap Louis Tomlinson just kissed me! On the lips! "What's the matter babe?" Lou asked turning me so I could look at him. "You kissed me!" I exclaimed. "Look CeCe, I'm sorry. I thought you felt the same way and-" Lou started looking at his feet. "No!" I interrupted. He looked at me startled since I yelled loudly. "That's not what I meant." I explained. He gave me a look that said 'continue'. "I've been waiting for that for a long time." I said blushing. "You're to cute!" He said kissing my cheek and taking my hand again.

Ivey's POV

Alyssa's mom gave her money to get Christmas presents for herself since she missed Christmas. So of course she dragged us all to a tattoo and piercing shop. It's scary in here, I didn't approve since I don't care for tattoos or body piercings, but I don't control her so whatevs. Hayley is also getting some. "My besties are all grown up!" I said in mock sadness pretending to cry. Alyssa laughed and stuck her tongue out at me making me roll my eyes. "I know you love me! I know you care!" Alyssa sang at me. I just laughed and said "Whatever helps you sleep at night!" A guy appeared taking Alyssa and Hayley down the hall. Niall came over to me holding a Hershey's chocolate bar. "Want some love?" He asked holding out half of it for me to take. "Ya thanks Ni!" I smiled. "Niall sharing food?" Zayn questioned. Harry went over and put his hand on Niall's forehead. "Are you feeling alright?" He teased. "Oh shove off Harry!" Niall retorted pushing him playfully and blushing. He winked at me before taking the empty seat beside Zayn. "What do ya think?" Hayley said pulling up her shirt to show us her new belly ring. She held up her left wrist which was a infinity sign with faith written in purple cursive on the side. She turned around and moved her dark chocolate-colored curls so we could see the bright red heart on her neck. "Then last but not least this one!" She said showing the orange poppies on her hip to represent California. "Very nice!" Harry winked causing Hayley to turn red and smile. I nodded and the others gave compliments of approval. A little bit later Alyssa came out. "Oh let us see!" Hayley squealed excitedly. Alyssa smiled and lifted her shirt revealing a belly ring which of course had a purple dinosaur charm dangling from it. She turned her head to show us a sparkly stud in her nose, then stuck her tongue out, which was pierced with a blue metal ball. She held up her wrists, her left one read 'Stay' and the right 'Strong'. Then lastly a dragon on her right shoulder blade. "What's the stay strong for?" Liam questioned. She paled but sighed. "I used to cut, back when my dad left. It's a reminder to stay strong and to keep pushing through the rocky path of life." She explained dolefully. I gave her a small smile, and she returned it before looking down and shifting from foot to foot uncomfortably. "Hey guys! Guess what!?!" Niall shouted breaking the awkwardness. "Your hungry?" Zayn guessed. Niall nodded and we left to the food court. "Thanks Niall!" Alyssa told him on her way out. "Come on Ivey!" He cheered taking my hand. We then proceeded skipped to the food court.

Hayley's POV

After the mall we went over to the boys' house. I am currently sitting on Harry's bed waiting for Harry to come out of the bathroom.'Speak of the angel!' I thought as he walked through the door in only pajama pants. "You know Hayley... those tattoos are really sexy!" He said winking. "Really?" I asked cheekily. "Definatly!" He confirmed coming closer to me. He smirked before turning his head and crashing his lips to mine. I kissed back eagerly hoping nobody would interrupt us. He traced the poppies on my hip gently, knowing it would be sore for a couple days. I opened my lips slightly to luck his bottom lip. His jaw remained closed. "Tease" I mumbled. I absentmindedly started tracing his abs with my fingertips. He then forcibly opened my mouth shoving his tongue inside. We continued snogging until SHE ruined it. "Hey dinner is-" Alyssa started to inform. We ignored her thinking she left. "DINNER IS READY!!!!!!!"She screamed causing Harry and I to jump apart, me landing on the floor. I turned and glared at Alyssa who just smirked and said "Thought you ought to know!"She quoted from Harry Potter before running out singing, more like screaming,"Hayley and Harry sitting in a tree S-N-O-G-G-I-N-G!!!!!!!" "I AM GOING TO KILL HER!!!!!!!!!!!" I screamed furiously. "Calm down babe, we got time later." Harry said helping me off the floor and kissing my cheek.

Alyssa's POV

"Where's Liam?" Zayn asked. "I'll get him!" I smiled. I ran back up the stairs walking to Liam's room. I knocked twice and called "Liam dinner's ready!" "Not hungry." He told me. That's strange. "Come on Li you need to eat something!" I pleaded. "Go away I said I wasn't hungry!" He said harshly. I,being the stubborn butt I am, opened his door and walked in. Liam was curled up hugging a bullseye stuffed animal, tear leaking out of his squinted shut eyes. I rushed to his side "Liam what's wrong?" I asked concerned. "Go away!" He said his voice cracking at the end. "Not until you tell me why your crying." I told him sternly. "You!" He cried. "What about me Liam? Did I do something wrong?" I said worried. "Yes!" He said not giving me a full answer. "I'm sorry Li! Tell me what I did! I can fix it!" I said trying not to cry. I didn't mean to hurt him. "That's just it Alyssa! You can't fix it!" He sighed. "Yes I can just give me a chan-" I begged before he cut me off. "No you can NOT fix it Alyssa!" He sneered. "You can't fix the fact that you have remembered everything about everyone else but me! All you can flipping remember is my fear!" He said angrily. "It's not like I forgot you on purpose Liam!" I screamed. "You sure? Cause to me it seems that you don't WANT to remember me!" He yelled. "F you!" I sobbed. Why did he blame me! I mean I try to remember I just can't! "I'm going out for a jog." He muttered leaving me on the floor and slamming the door behind him. I grabbed his bullseye plushie and hugged it. "I'm sorry Liam." I whispered. I cuddled Bullseye, it smelled like Liam. Then something hit me: I remembered.

*Flashbacks*

Someone covered my eyes with their cold hands. "Guess who?" They whispered. "Liam?" I giggled. "How did you know?" He asked. "Your voice silly!" I told him.

*******

"Kay how 'bout this?" Liam asked giving me another food to see if I could guess it. I popped if in my mouth and replied "Easy! Banana dipped in melted chocolate!" I smiled happily. "Did you know that chocolate is-" I cut him off. "Your favorite food, I know!" I grinned taking off the blindfold.

**********

"Come here!" Liam demanded. "No!" I giggled running into the living room. "You will pay for ruining my hair!" Liam declared. "You sound like Zayn!" I yelled back running in circles around the couch. "Hey! I'm sexier than Zayn!" Liam cried causing me to giggle again. "True!" I said smiling. "Liam?" I asked not seeing where he went. Muscular arms wrapped around my waist. "Caught you!" Liam whispered in my ear. "Now for revenge!" He shouted gleefully. I was turned around quickly before he tackled me to the floor. "Do your worst!" I bravely said. "Trust me, I will!" Liam smirked. He sat on top of me and smiled, he then put his hands on my sides and started tickling me. "Ahhhh Liam stop it!!!!" I laughed. "Never!" He cried chuckling as well.

*End of flashbacks*

"Crap!" I whisper-shouted. I put Bullseye back on Liam's bed and ran out of his room, down the stairs, and through the front door. I heard the others shouting, but I ignored them. "Liam!" I yelled running after him. "LIAM!!!!" I shouted, he still ignored me. "Damn it Liam! Wait up!" I screamed. He froze and turned around "What?" He asked. I ran to him and gave him a bear hug. "I remember!" I cheered. "You what?" He asked in disbelief. "I remember!" I repeated happily. "I remember you! Your favorite color is purple, you have a Toy Story obbsesion, you got 'mad' when I got cookie dough in your hair! I remember all of it!" I grinned. His face light up and he did one thing I never thought would happen: Liam James Payne kissed me, on the lips
