Changing

chapter 13

The rest of the night I sat down in the same deck chair, talking to Brooke. She told me how her and Niall met and how much she loves him. We talked for basically the whole. It was about 9:50pm when Niall came over to us. "Hey ladies" he yelled, clearly drunk. Brooke and I laughed at Niall. "Hey" we said in unison. "So everybody is playing 7 minutes in heaven inside if y'all wanna join". To be honest, I seriously didn't feel like playing. This whole night had taken a turn for the worst. All I wanted to do was leave, but I couldn't find Chloe anywhere. After Niall and Brooke constantly nagging me to come join, I gave into the pressure and followed them inside. We all squished into a 2 person seat, Brooke sitting on Niall's lap. I scanned my eyes around the room to find Harry sitting in between a blonde and brunette. Instead of my heart shattering, jealously built up inside of me. I didn't even feel jealous, but clearly my body through otherwise. Harry was wearing a white tank top with black skinning jeans. I had to admit he looked so hot but I guess the 5 or 6 sluts surrounding him agreed as the all swooned over him. I rolled my eyes and focused on the game. But I couldn't. I could feel a pair of eyes burning through my skin. I dared myself not to look up at Harry but I just couldn't help myself. As our eyes locked, I felt butterflies. No, stop Lexi. He is just trapping you again. Don't fall for it. I quickly broke the eye contact as my eyes shifted to Niall and Brooke who were making out. I felt uncomfortable and unwanted. This night surely isn't going how I planned.

It was about 15 minutes into the game. About every couple in the room had participated in this game and I bet you if they weren't a couple before this game, they probably are now. I started getting really uncomfortable and all I wanted to do was go home. I was too busy in deep thought to realise that my name was called out. "Hello, Lexi" Niall nudged my shoulder gently. "What, what" I repeated, confused at what was going on around me. "You have been chosen to participate in the 7 minutes in heaven with....HARRY!!!" My heart hit the floor. No way. No. Fucking. Way. This can't be happening to me. An eruption of 'ohhhh's filled the room. I can't even look at Harry. He stares at me, sympathetically. He almost looks like he is going to cry. I can't stand this anymore. Without even realising it, I turn of my heel and run out of the front door. Halfway down the driveway, I realise I don't have a ride, so I just keep running down the street. I hear faint footsteps running behind me. I instantly assume its Niall or Chloe or Brooke. "Lexi, wait up please baby" I stop in my tracks. It's neither of them. Oh my god. I turn around shocked to see, not Niall, not Chloe, not even Brooke. But Harry.
