JADES POV

I wake up, it's 11:30pm, I'm still on the sofa with Harry and he's fast asleep.

"Harry," I whisper, shaking him lightly.

He groans, fluttering open his eyes, they look even more green when he wakes up.

"Its eleven thirty, you should probably get back over there," I say, stretching and sitting up.

"What if I don't want to?" he smirks.

"You have to," I chuckle.

"If you say so love" he sighs.

"I say so," I say, dragging him up and pushing him out the door.

Before he leaves, he softly kisses my cheek.

"You'll be ok, I promise. If he upsets you we'll just have to fuck him up," he smiles, and walks away.

I laugh to myself, shutting the door and wearily walking to my bedroom. Pulling off my clothes and getting into my pyjamas, I sink into my mattress.

I hear Vanessa come in about half an hour later and she goes straight to bed so luckily, no questions are asked.

---------

I wake up to the sound of voices from the living room.

Getting out of bed and grabbing my phone, I lay in bed, kind of eavesdropping on the conversation as well as looking through instagram.

"He can't do that," I hear Vanessa hiss.

"Well he is. I personally don't agree with it but he told me last night after he came home," I hear Louis reply.

"Louis if Niall is thinking about trying it on with Jade he can't use Cara like that. It's wrong," she says loudly.

I freeze, complete and utter shock rushes through my body.

"Keep your voice down," Louis whisper shouts.

"Ok sorry but I have to tell Cara," Vanessa sighs.

I make a lot of noise on purpose to let them know I'm coming in. I walk in acting like I hadn't heard what they'd just said.

"Oh morning Jade," Vanessa smiles, looking nervous.

"How long have you been awake?" Louis asks, scared that I'd heard something.

"Just got up," I lie, making myself a coffee. I hear them both breathe a sigh of relief.

"Why, talking about something you didn't want me to know about?" I tease, watching both of their faces drain colour.

"No," Vanessa replies.

"Ok," I reply, walking back to the bedroom and shutting the door.

I race to the bedside table and grab an empty glass, putting it against the wall and listening.

"That was way too close," Vanessa says.

"I know, I have to go. I'll see you later babe, love you," I hear Louis say and he shuts the door.

Quickly, I pull out my phone and type out a text to Harry.

To Harry: Hi can you meet me in the lounge, I need your help. x

I press send and decide on an outfit. To go ahead with mine and Harry's secret plan, that he doesn't know about yet, I need to make sure I look super cute.

So, going with that, I grab a light blue body suit and pair it with some tight black joggers and my vans.

I borrow Vanessa's hair curlers and curl the ends of my hair tightly, before doing my make-up with a finishing touch of a glossy lip.

Walking into the living room, Vanessa's eyes nearly pop out of her head.

"Where are you going looking like that?" she says.

"Coffee with Harry, oh and Niall wanted to speak to me so can you tell him where I am if you see him," I lie and she nods.

As soon as I get there, classes start in an hour so I have plenty of time to piss Niall off.

Harry's sat at a small table in the corner of the lounge and I walk up behind him, tapping his shoulder.

"Hey," he says.

"Hi," I reply.

He lifts his eyes from his phone and I swear he's gawping at me for a second.

"Uh, everything okay?" he mumbles.

"So, I need your help because i've just found out something. You can't say I told you this! Apparently, Niall is using Cara to make me jealous, so, I thought that I would play him at his own game to piss him off a little bit but I need your help," I say.

"How?" Harry questions.

"I want you to pretend to date me," I say quietly.

"How is that going to work?" Harry asks.

"Because, it will most likely make Niall jealous. He shouldn't do that to Cara and it might make him back off me a little bit. If the truth comes out i'm just gonna shut him down and tell him it was all a joke. He can't just use girls like that."

Harry nods, smiling slightly.

"He's here," Harry mumbles.
I grab Harry's hand from across the table and entwine our fingers.

"He hasn't noticed us," Harry tells me.

"Niall," I call, waving him over with my free hand.

"Uh hey," he smiles, and frowns at our hands.

"Since when were you two a thing?" he says with a straight face.

"Since yesterday," I laugh, putting my other hand over Harry's drawing circles with my finger.

"Oh nice, well I have class so see you around," he says hastily, leaving without saying goodbye to Harry.

I untangle our hands and release a small laugh.

"Well that worked," I smile.

"Yeah it did," Harry mutters.

"Come on lets get to class," I say, walking away.
