Chasing Dreams

Chapter 13

Alyssa's POV

As soon as we pulled away I turned a deep shade of crimson. Liam took my hand smiling, "Come on babe, let's go back to the flat." I nodded glancing at our intertwined fingers. He suddenly stopped and grabbed my other hand making me look up out of curiosity. "I'm sorry for yelling and being rude. Are you mad?" He said whispering at the end, sounding like an innocent little kid. I looked into his golden brown eyes, worry swimming in them. "I'm not mad Li. You were just upset." I smiled at him, and he returned the gesture. "I honestly don't understand how I forgot you in the first place, your really special to me and...I'm sorry."I confessed my smile faltering. He pulled me into a hug and few tears escaped my hazel eyes. "I don't blame you." He whispered in my ear. He pecked my forehead and wiped away my tears. We walked back to the flat in a comfortable silence. "There you guys are! Where were-" Ivey began but she stopped and stated at something. I followed her gaze to Liam and I's hands, then snapped back up and looked to see her smirking. I blushed and let go of Liam's hand so he could eat. Ivey, Hayley, and CeCe grabbed my arms leading me up stairs with a "We'll be back!" "Details!" Hayley squealed once the door was closed. We happened to be in Liam's room, I could tell since it was reasonably neat. I explained everything that happened starting with our fight. "So your not together?" CeCe questioned. "No, I don't think he likes me like that." I stated sadly. "ARE YOU SERIOUS?!?" Ivey yelled irritated. I nodded causing her to groan but let it go.

Hayley's POV

We walked back down stairs, Louis startling me by yelling "Let's play Assassin like in iCarly!" "Yeah!" I agreed. Louis ran upstairs grabbing everyone a miniature paintball blow gun. We all split up, and to make it more fun we turned the lights of and wore night vision goggles. I snuck downstairs and ducked behind any piece of furniture I could find. I heard movement to my left and made my breathing quieter. I looked to see it was Harry, we became allies silently. Someone passed right in front of me. I pulled the gun to my lips and blew into the end quickly, hoping I aimed correctly. I must have because a groan of pain echoed through the room a thud following close afterward. The lights turned on and my eyes were blinded seeing as I was still wearing the glasses. I quickly took them off and searched for my hit target. I laughed to see Liam dramatically 'dying' on the wooden floor, a purple blob right where his heart is. "Liam!" Alyssa cried running over to him. "You can't leave me!" She loudly said and started to fake cry. "Alyssa, I have one request before I'm gone." Liam gasped clutching Alyssa's hand. "Anything Li! What is it!?!" Alyssa replied caressing Liam's face. "Will you be my girlfriend?" Liam asked his brown eyes looking straight into her hazel ones. Alyssa's eyes went wide, reminding me of Dobby from Harry Potter, before nodding. Alyssa bent down and pecked Liam before he whispered "I love you." He shut his eyes and made his body go limp to make it seem like he was dead. "Liam!!!! No!!!!" Alyssa shouted dramatically. "Let's play normal Assassin," Louis said. "Ok so as you know you can't shoot someone when their back is turned, or if they are sleeping, and it must be unexpected." Zayn announced everyone nodding in agreement. Alyssa walked up to me glaring playfully. "You killed my boyfriend Quinn, and I want revenge." She began. I gulped, even though I knew it was all just fun and games, she was using her demon voice, and it was scary. "I'm going to get you. Maybe not today, may e not tomorrow. But I'm gunna get ya." She threatened before stalking back toward Liam. She wiped the paint off his shirt onto her fingers, then gave herself violet war paint. "It's on!" She yelled.

Ivey's POV

I stepped into the kitchen the next morning to get breakfast. Assassin usually lasts a couple days, and there is now only six people left.

*Flashback*

I stood next to Zayn a blow horn in one hand, my paint gun in the other. The rule was no shooting if they were asleep, it never said we couldn't wake them up. I pressed the button to the blow horn once it was a foot from his face. He jolted awake and sat up swiftly. I took that as my cue and blew into my gun, watching the green paintball hit his forehead with a splat. "You're out!" I cried like an umpire in baseball. I jumped and did my happy dance, giggling at Zayn's expression.

******

We were all sitting in the living room watching a movie when Harry pulled his blow gun out, unnoticed by everyone but Hayley, who was sitting on his lap, and I. He got ready and aimed it toward Louis' back. Suddenly Hayley fell to the floor with a thud getting everyone's attention. She pointed at the person guilty glaring at them:Harry. Harry took that as his chance and shot Lou in the stomach yelling "Ha Ha! You are out!" "Hazzabear!?! How could you?!?" Lou shouted. "I'm sorry Boo, but I have to protect Hayley from all of you." Harry replied kissing Hayley on the cheek.

*End of Flashback*

I opened the cabinets that held plates and bowls and went to grab one. I looked up and screamed loudly. I herd running footsteps thumping on the stairs. "Hello Leprechaun!" Alyssa greeted from the cabinet. Then I felt chunky liquid on my forehead. I brought my fingers to my head and wiped it off then looked at my hand. I saw that it was covered in gooey ruby red paint. "What happened?" Niall asked concerned. "She's out." Alyssa stated climbing out of the cabinet. Niall smiled at me sadly before something went whizzing past my head. "There, now your both out!" She said smiling looking at the red blotch on Niall's cheek. "Have a good breakfast!" Alyssa cheered before skipping out of the room. "She takes this game WAY to seriously." I told Niall, him nodding in agreement.

CeCe's POV

I walked into the living room to see Alyssa and Liam making out on the couch. "Perfect!" I thought grabbing my paint gun. I snuck up and aimed before blowing a paintball. Alyssa must have known I was there because she pulled away from Liam and dogged it, just barley. She popped up and blew into her gun 5 times. Before I hand time to process what was happening I was covered in red paint. "Nice try Cecilia, but you failed." She smirked twirling the gun and putting it back on her belt. Then sitting back on the couch, she turned on Toy Story 2 and cuddled into Liam. I walked into the kitchen to see Hayley. "You and Harry are the only ones left." I informed her "Good luck!" I patted her shoulder and grabbed a piece of her bacon. She walked into the living room with her gun in hand. I heard a huge crash and skidded into the living room. "What happened?" I asked seeing Harry groaning in pain on the floor and Hayley looked gobsmacked. "This sneak here tried to kill me, much like you did minuets ago. But like with you, I caught her. I tried to shoot her,but Harry her jumped in front of her sacrificing himself." She explained smugly. "Good luck babe." Harry said. "She's good." He got up and dusted himself off then took Hayley's hand as she helped him limp up the stairs. "CeCe can you grab an ice pack please?" I nodded and went to get one out of the freezer. Following them,but before I was all the way up the stairwell I heard part of Alyssa and Liam's conversation. "How do you do it?" Liam asked amazed. "I'm just that amazing!" Alyssa grinned.
