Beginnings

Chapter 16-won't act my age

Mikaela's POV:
I wake up me...face first in a pizza box on Niall's stomach his tummy going up and down as he snores loudly. Luke's stretched across my back as he is snuggled up near Bella one arm tightly placed over her waist as she lies her head on his chest nuzzling her ace cutely into him and I feel like he's smiling in his sleep.Michael and Calum are lying in some dog pile kind of form Calum's arm lying with his hand outstretched to me while Tilly and Ashton are sprawled over Niall's feet snuggling close together and I swear I heard Ashton mumble bananas in his sleep he's defiantly crazy I giggle at him. As I wake Michael and Calum up by jumping on them they both shoot up to see me when they do they start laughing I giggle too and then move to Ashton and Tilly they both look up at me and laugh (geez I didn't relies I was this funny all of a sudden) I move to Luke and Bella,Luke peers a sleepy eye up at me and giggles an slightly moves to realise Bella's snuggled up to him he gives a sleepy smile and moves while snuggling her in him and she moves to were he positions her I pull the thumbs up at him and he winks back while he smooths her hair and tucks the odd hair behind her ear in a cute gesture..I move to Niall and slap him with the pizza box "say what now." Says Niall as he wakes abruptly "you were snoring." I giggle at him he rolls his eyes till he looks at me then he starts laughing "what's so funny?" I say putting my hands on my hips crossly "oh nothing pizza face." He says smirking "oh." I say turning slightly red I peel the pizza from my face and slap it on his he laughs then grabs the pizza and bites it "that was on my face." I say stating obviously "eh?" He says munching away at the pizza "that's nasty,bro." Michael says to him "come on,you've probably done worst." Says Niall back and he blushes immediately. "Who wants food,and not face pizza either like proper food." Says Tilly "how about English pancakes." She says smiling "omg yes please." Says Bella obviously awaking at the perfect moment "your alive." I say to her she giggles and smiles at Luke sweetly "how was cuddles eh?" I add winking "shhhh." She says blushing. Tilly already has moved back to the kitchen as I turned back as all the boys crowd round in awe as she starts making her famous English pancakes which are the tastiest pancakes I've ever had in my life. I move to the kitchen and look around towards the microwave and notice the time "shoot it's 9:30." I gasp "shoot lets get ready." Says Bella running to her room (lucky on the way home we all stopped and grabbed a spare change of clothes) we turn of the stove and each move to a place to get dressed the boys get the spare room and we get her room to get ready
***
We arrive luckily on time all in shorts and sporty tops( except me I'm in my lucky black crop top and light wash high wasted shorts) we sit at a table ordering coffee and a small breakfast each while we wait scoffing down our breakfast and before we know it her brother arrives "Liam!" She screams running to him and jumping into his arms "Bella darling!" He screams back they smile and start up their conversation of quick catch up of how are things and stuff. She finally introduces us "this is Mikaela,Tilly,Michael,Calum,Niall." "Nice to meet to you all." He says politely shaking our hands we all move back to the table "so Liam." I say "where do you live?" "Florida." He replies politely "with Bella's mum and my dad we have lived there for three years now,it's really nice and by the way they both really miss you and when I go back they want you to come with me." He says just as the boys walk in "sounds cool, I miss them too." She continues "by the way this is Zayn,Harry and um .. Louis." He says shaking hands with them all yet he stops at Louis and frowns at him as they both awkwardly look at each other he clears his throat and shakes his hand quickly and says "Bella can I talk to you for a second." He says raising an eyebrow at her "of course." She says walking with him, she turns quickly "we will be back in a second." "Yes sorry to take her." He says politely and then they continue to walk in the other direction (that was very weird what is going on between them and Louis???well obviously it's him he seemed fine until he saw Louis there might be some history there or something I can't quite put my finger on it.) I push the thought to the back of my head and we introduce them to the 5sos boys the boys seem abit at the new addition of boys yet I hug all the boys normally and stop and Harry and I get in a big conversation about what happened after we left and I tell him what he missed out on "wish I would've been there." Says Harry "it wasn't as fun without you anyway." I say to him honestly I missed his parkour and showing off "it's always a bit better with Harry." He says in a cocky tone "hey don't get a big head now." I say "missed you too though." He says with a smile. That's when Bella and Liam walk in he frowns again at Louis and they awkwardly stare as Liam glares at him while Bella awkwardly shuffles next to Luke and they talk,Louis seemed a bit disappointed at her gesture "we better head to paintball." Says Liam quickly and we move to the three taxis waiting for us we each fill in them quickly Louis,Bella,Luke and Liam in the first one,awkwardly Louis goes to sit by Bella but Liam steps in front of him so he moves to the front seat (I fee bad for him something's up and I don't know exactly what I will know though) in the second taxi is Michael,Calum,Ashton and Tilly,Michael goes to sit in the front as the three move to sit in the back as Ashton says "this is the party taxi." He says starting to dance and we all laugh as Harry,niall,Zayn and I go into the last taxi I sit in-between Niall and Harry which is pretty fun because we tell the taxi driver to turn up the music as we groove along to it and of course we get in a big conversation "who's the best dancer?" We all think ourselves are and during this Zayn stays silent and rather awkward in the front "Zayn who do you think the best dancer is?" I say and he rudely shrugs and lolls at the window (rude what's his problem?) I think frowning at his sudden mood swing. We end up asking the taxi driver and he says me so I tip him once the drive is finished as I continue to rub it in their faces as we get out of the car Zayn walks off quickly with his hands in his pocket "you know he just said you were the best dancer cause your a pretty lady." Says Harry "not true." I say crossing my arms "very true and he wanted a tip." Says Niall and they hi five each other "when I smoke you two in this I don't need your opinions anyway." I say as I sassily walk off to join the others in a big heap to start the rules and picking players for teams...

Tilly's POV:
Bella and Liam are captains to start of with and then whoever gets picked gets to pick the next person and so on. Obviously I really wanna be with Harry and I can't wait till he picks me because we can work together as a team and I love that idea Bella picks first and of course she picks Luke and Louis looks really hurt at this and I would be too I don't blame him (what's up with them lately it's weird) Luke gives Bella a big hug and they cheer. Liam looks around the people then scans out Zayn they fist pump I guess they must kinda know each other. Luke scans and I know he will pick Ashton and of course he picks Ashton he bounds over to him. Zayn of course picks Harry and this is what I've been waiting for because now they change ways and that team goes first in pickings Harry walks over and chest pumps Harry and then he scans the crowd and then I see him spot me but then he keeps going he must be pretending he's not gunna pick me he also looks at Mikaela and then picks....
Mikaela...I'm shocked and kinda hurt then I heard him say "we got the best player so prepare to lose." Aww I get it he picked the best person at it which is obviously Mikaela it's a strategic move I understand now. It makes me feel kinda better... Ashton then picks and when he sees me he smiles "Tilly kinz."he says and I move to their group an smile "we can get them with our mean dance moves." He whispers. Mikaela then picks Niall. I pick Michael cause he seems cool and I wanna get to know him. Niall picks Louis and Calum sits there as the last so we get him and I like Calum "last picked,I'm affended." He says crossing his arms he's kidding obviously but we show him our love then go and grab our guns and get set in our field I go with Luke,Ashton and Bella we all work as a team as Calum and Michael guard the flag together.

Before the alarm rings I see Harry and Mikaela together he whispers something to her and kisses her on the forehead she giggles blushing madly and they run off holding hands and I feel the feeling of jealousy that was something no friend does that to each other and it hurts he would cheat on me like that.i mean how could he? Why would he? What's he thinking? Does he hate me? I need to stop overthinking it's probably nothing I'm just making a big deal of nothing at all just calm Down Tilly. I say over and over in my head yet I can't shake the thought the way he looked at her the way he kissed her on the head....STOP! I tell myself I need to stop this Tilly focus...on paintball...paintball... But how can I when it replays over and over in my head I walk back to Ashton and the others.."you okay Tilly?" Says as he tilts his head at me slightly "I'm fine." I say sharply using my new jealousy as fire to burn my competitive fire...the alarm sounds and we follow our plan and we stalk them down and of course first on my list Mikaela....
Harry's POV:
We shoot up this tree in this treehouse box kinda part no one will find us here I know and I can have some alone time with Mikaela which is what I've wanted for so long now and now I have it. I'm not gunna blow this no way, she's facing me but keeps peering out to see if there's anyone coming she looks so fierce and determined to win yet it somehow feels like it's just us. "Mikaela do you remember that time so long ago now it almost feels like a distant dream when I helped you-" she cuts me off "I think about that everyday, I can never repay you for what you did for me." Her eyes are glossy and she wipes them "with out you who knows what would have happened then-" this time I cut her off feeling my self go weak inside yet I felt the need to bring up our history "I don't even wanna think about it...just know I'll always be here with you...never forget that." I say grabbing her hand and she nods sniffling slightly "I know,I've always known and I'm so grateful for you and what you've done." She says glossy eyed with that small sweet smile I've come to miss..this is the feeling I've had lately that I've missed that Tilly could never fulfil....Tilly did she see us? Why do I not seem to mind if she does..does it make me a bad person that I forgot we were together just for a second and how I've always found it so hard to pick between the two that is until now... I feel now that when I think about it I've got stronger feelings for Mikaela but Tilly how could I do this to her I need to fix this..I've lead her on and I shouldn't of I just couldn't decide but I now realise even with a short amount of time I like Mikaela again and all our history comes back I can't replace that yet with Tilly there's such a passion..no I need to be with the one that I have the most feelings for and the best connection. I rub Mikaela's hand and spot people coming towards us look I point in a hidden way. We both take aim and I now spot who it is it's Ashton,Bella,Luke and Tilly... I can't shoot Tilly I take aim at Ashton and Mikaela has already started shooting she shot them all and they all screamed in pain and run around madly as we shoot at them over as over again..I shot Luke in the butt once and wow..Ashton just shot himself in the face he aimed towards the tree but had the gun facing the wrong way around he can be a real idiot sometimes but he seems pretty cool overall...I stare at Mikaela and she stares back at me as I felt like the world just stopped and it's only us I stare in her eyes so blue like the sea on the clearest day she smirks and I realise I'm still holding her hand we slowly part hands and she says "I've missed you Harry." She says grabbing my hand reigniting old sparks again and she places her other one on my face smoothing over my stubbly chin "me too." I say not losing eye contact with her "we should go after the flag now." She says looking out the window seeing it's clear "I was thinking the same thing." I say in agreement and she smirks as if to say no you weren't. We move down the tree skilfully we land on the ground and head towards their flag zone. It seems clear but we stay hidden and skilfully keep lookout "I got your back remember." I whisper to her "I know,same here." She whispers back to me "go now." I say at the perfect time in my opinion and I see her swift figure move quickly towards the pole then I see rustle in the tree and a quick flash and she's shot she squeals and retrieves slowly looking around with her gun facing at different directions then a sudden army of bullets shoot at her and she gets shot in several places and retreats back to the tunnel where I am shooting where the shots came from and I hear to moans of pain from what sounds like boys "you okay?" I say to her concerned I check her "fine." She gasps regaining strength "wanna head back to base to discuss an action plan?" She says "sounds good." Her bravery and determination never seems to leave me less astounded she doesn't give up,cry or moan she takes actions and keeps going. I kiss her head "I'll be there as you back up better next time." I wink at her....

Luke's POV:
Bella and I have been a great team except for our bad luck during a big unknown shooting right now though we're in the the enemy's territory trying to make an action plan to get the flag. "What if we-" I start then stop "how about-" I think hmmm "well why don't someone be a distraction and the other goes for the flag." I say finally "good idea." She says sweetly,(she's always so cute and positive an I feel like each time we talk she makes my heart swell) "okay,I'll be the distraction." Says Ashton volunteering bravely "I mean I've already been shot in the face what's the worst that could happen?" We all laugh and Tilly volunteers to go with him and Bella and I will watch over and then Bella will run and get the flag.( I'm really happy to be paired up with Bella,I think we make a perfect team and I love working with her.) I smile as I look towards her and we all cutely group hug then seat up our plan.
***
We wait patiently as Tilly and Ashton are busy doing some weird kinda dance show as a distraction. We on the other hand wait patiently for someone to go for the bait before we spring our plan but no one seems to be here. Suddenly the siren goes off and that's the teams got your flag siren but that can't be possible unless the other team has already got our flag. We all sigh in realisation that we have lost a great battle but of course as Bella is she steps in as we all huddle up "we tried our best and that's the best any one can hope out of any of us." She says sweetly putting up the team still we stand rather glumly "I agree with Bella." I say smiling at her as she smiles at me happily "come on team lets hold our heads high." I say and Bella nods in agreement "besides were still the best at dancing." Says Ashton nudging Tilly positively as they smile and we all walk back with our heads held high to the others in this prize ceremony type thing and I put my hand in Bella's and she smiles and grips it tightly as we all walk back...

Mikaela's POV:
I can't believe it!!harry and I just won the flag being the amazing team that we are we won it!! I'm screaming inside and Harry and I are practically dying yet somehow I knew we would win. We are all gathered in a small circle and I notice the four returning with Bella and like holding hands...(woah what's going on there,she has a lot to tell..I notice Louis looking over and then looking to the ground awkwardly and rather sad..he looks like he's gunna burst in to tears) I feel sorry for Louis and give him a sympathetic look and mouth in his direction you ok? And being the guy he is he just gives a small nod and a weak smile I can tell he's not and I need to talk to him afterwards... Back to the ceremony the guy is giving out many awards one for best hider which was Michael,best team player which was Bella,best team spirit which is of course Ashton,then best team captain which was Liam before announcing the two best awards of who hasn't been shot through the whole game and who has shot the most players...who hadn't been shot at all was Calum who was extremely happy at this achievement but Michael said "you didn't do anything at all..you were in the bathrooms the whole game." And he blushed madly but of course denied it and we all laughed... Then player who shot the most and it was.....
*drum roll*
Me!!!!!! Omg omg!!!! It's me!!!... I was jumping up and down as he gave me a $30 prize and some wine bottle I was so happy I turned to Harry and he turned to me and he smiled as I jumped into his arms and he picked me up and spun me around and hugged me tightly as we giggled like children and I could feel the sparks flying like crazy fireworks going off and it felt like we were they only ones here "omg I knew you could do it,we make a great team." Harry says smiling a simply wide smile "we sure do." I say as we near faces only inches apart I can smell his mint,cologne smell that I'm so use to,I can feel the sparks as were only inches away his hot breath fanning across my face as his delicate fingers twist strands of hair when we hear this sound like a clearing of the throat.....
It feels like we freeze in time both hitting realisation of what we were doing he quickly places me down and we move quickly away from each other as many eyes including Tilly's hit us in awe expressions they stand in silence "sorry guys,I was just really excited..Calum come here." I say as I move to him an he quickly picks me up knowing exactly what I'm thinking and does the same thing I smile and whisper to him thank you as we're hugging and Harry winks at me and the group laughs as Ashton does the same and so does Niall. We all laugh and everyone congratulates each other as Harry pulls me away from them and we walk far away out of sight from the group and he intertwines our hands as we walk hand in hand "thanks for that back there." He says rubbing the back of his neck "you know just some quick thinking." I say with a giggle he laughs and agrees "listen." He begins "I've really missed you,I've missed this,us." He says pausing suddenly obviously waiting for a reply I say "same,I really have." Then he says something I don't expect "I wanna be with you." He says quickly and I instantly feel relief and am glad he wants what I want yet I feel bad I could never do this to Tilly she would never do this to me "what about Tilly?" I question "I know I've been thinking about that too but it's not fair to be with her if all I wanna do is be with you." He says rubbing his neck "I understand and I wanna be with you too." I say with out thinking and instantly feel bad but before I can correct myself he nears me and whispers "this is what I wanted to do earlier but didn't have the chance to." He nears me hot breath of mint and cologne fan across my face as he grins smugly before our face connect and my eyes close gently his lips meet mine an it's a sensation of fireworks and magic just the way I remember it
***
*flashback*
"Harry I can't do this anymore,I can't keep relying on you,it's..it's not fair on you." I say shaking "I'm doing this for you I want to do this." He says sternly "Harry you have to leave you can't keep coming back..it's not safe." I say shaking my head sadly as I try to contain my tears "I will always be here for you..I'm not leaving you ever." He says coming towards me while pulling my arms beside me tightly so I can't move he takes them both in one hand as I try to struggle out of his reach but he easily takes my small arms in one hand and uses the other to gently stroke my face as I try to move from his grasp "please stop fighting me..look at me please." He says as he tilts my chin up in the direction of his face our eyes meeting as his green piercing eyes stare at me with such seriousness I just can't look away "I'm always gunna be here for you..you can't get rid of me because your afraid because I'm afraid too but for you." He says softly yet sternly as his face nears mine his hot breath fans my face sending goose bumps down my body the smell of mint and cologne pierced my nostrils "I don't want you to leave..not ever." I say without thinking as he smiles at these words he lowers near me and kisses me gently as the fireworks form and explode and this feeling of magic creates in mere moments and it's just him and I left on this world....
