Love on Fire

Victoria's P.O.V.

We walk for about ten minutes, before we see Harry's house. He pulls out his phone, and texts someone. I secretly peek over his shoulder and read the texts.

Okay sweetie pie!! Bahahaha😂😝

Huh, I chuckle a little. Harry turns around to look at me. I look away, and try to ack normal. When I look back at him, he gives me a funny look. He shrugs it off.

"Well, we're here!" He opens the front door of his house and we walk inside. The boys stop what there doing and stare at me. Liam is sitting on the couch with Zayn, and Liam is in the kitchen with Louis, eating waffles. Niall jumps off of the couch to greet me. Louis rushes in behind him, followed by Liam and Zayn. The boys walk over and take turns hugging me. Niall is first. Then Liam and Zayn. And Finally Louis gives me a fairly long hug. He finally lets go of me.

"Hello there M'lady, my name is Niall!"

Louis butts in, "And I'm Louis!"

"And this is Liam and that's Zayn," says Harry. They smile.

"Hello I'm Victoria," I say, trying to not completely fangirl in front of the them, "Nice to meet you guys!"

"You too!" They all reply.

"Here," says Louis, bringing me to the couch, "sit down." Harry shoots him a mean look.

"Umm, thanks," I say.

"No problem!" Louis quickly replies.

"... Okay... Anyways Victoria, tell us about yourself," suggests Liam.

"Well okay, umm... I live alone in the Brushwood apartments. I have a cat named buggy. I love going to the beach. My favorite color is pink. I love cannolis. Um..."

"Well alright then," laughs Harry.

"So..." Zayn chuckles, "are you guys a couple?"

I look to Harry, panicking. "No, we're just friends," he says calmly. "Okay, well I've got to go get changed. I'll be right back." Harry walks out of the room.

Right when he's out of hearing range, the boys jump up an sit next to me. "Are you guys really JUST friends?" Asks Zayn.

"Yes," i slap him on the shoulder, "are you accusing us of lying?" I laugh.

"Well, I can tell that Harry really likes you," says Liam. Louis and Niall sigh sadly. We chuckle at them. "Okay... Back on track. Now the big question is do you like Har..." Harry walks back into the room.

"Okay," says Harry, "Why'd you guys move over to Victoria?"

"We've been sitting here the whole time," Niall tries to convince Harry.

"But you were in different spots," says Harry.

"No," says Louis, "You must've imagined it."

Harry looks confused. Haha. I bit my lip, to keep from bursting out laughing. He turns around to sit on the chair in the corner of the room. He looks back at us, scratches his head in confusion, then starts to watch the t.v.

We laugh silently, behind Harry's back.

The rest of the night, I talked to Louis and Niall. They're actually really funny. I almost peed in my pants... Twice! I also learned a lot about the boys and their career. It's really weird hanging out with celebrities. I bet any girl would die to be in my place.

"Okay," I yawn, "I should probably get going. I've got a vicious cat to feed." The boys laugh. "Okay," says Harry as he walks me to the front door.

"Do you need a ride?" He asks.

"No, I think I'm okay," I smile, "thanks for the offer though."

I walk down the steps, walk out of Harry's front yard, and head home.

"Goodnight," says Harry quietly, not realizing I heard him.

I turn around, "Goodnight Harry."

He smiles and then walks back inside. I can't help but smile too. His smile is infectious. I turn back to the road and walk home.
