One Year Of Fun (One Direction fan-fiction) (On Hold Indefinitely)

Chapter Five: Food Fight

Harry’s POV

“Hazzy!!  I want food!”  Ame whines.  Of course she wants food.  Rock Me starts playing from somewhere and Arella jumps up and looks around then picks up a phone that was sitting on the arm of the couch and answers it.

“It’s Arella, actually.  Avi’s busy.”  She says.  There’s a pause.  “Okay, I’ll have her call you as soon as she comes back from what she’s doing.”  Another pause.  “Alright.  Love ya too Cole.”  She hangs up and puts the phone in her back pocket and sits down next to Liam again.

“Who was that?”  Liam asks.

“Avi’s twin brother.”  She says with a shrug.  “She was supposed to call him an hour ago but didn’t.  They talk every day.  He’s the one she misses most from home.”

“Twin brother?”  Ame asks.  Arella just shrugs.

“I like her ringtone.”  I say.  Unfortunately, that brings Ame’s attention to me.

“Make me food.”  She pouts.  I sigh and get up and go to the kitchen.  She follows, and hugs me around my waist.  “Tank oo Hazzy.”  She says.

“You’re welcome.”  I say and start getting what I’ll need.  Ame hangs on my waist the whole time.  I groan, but don’t try to get her to let go; I know she won’t.  I start making spaghetti.  I make sure to put lots of red sauce and meatballs in it.  At some point Avi comes into the kitchen and watches over my shoulder.  I have no clue how she managed to get Louis to stop hanging on her; she must be a miracle worker. 

“It needs more red sauce.”  She says as I’m about to pick the bowl up and bring it to the table.  I look at her.  “The messier the meal, the better.  There’s never too much red sauce and there’s rarely enough.” She says.  I grin and point to one of the cupboards.  She gets another can of red sauce out and opens it easily, then pours it in while I stir.  Ame is looking at us curiously now.

“There, much better.”  Avi says once I’m done stirring it in.  I bring it to the table and she sets it.  Ame finally lets go of my waist and sits down.  I go into the living room and see Arella and the rest of the guys playing COD.  Ahh, that’s where she lost Louis.

“Food’s ready.”  I say.  They pause the game and we all sit down at the table and start eating and talking.  Out of the corner of my eye I see Avi putting something on Arella’s plate.  I look closer and notice that she’s giving Arella all her meatballs.

“Do you have any siblings?”  Liam asks Arella, taking her attention off of Avi, who was about to say something too her.

“I have two older brothers named Brian and Ryan, they’re twenty-four.”  She says.  They keep talking, Arella oblivious to the fact that Avi is trying to get her attention.  I turn to talk to Winter.  Two minutes later something flies past my face and hits Zayn.  Everyone turns to Avi and Arella, who are looking very guilty, Arella has a meatball in her hair.

“She threw it!”  Avi cries, pointing to Arella.

“You started it!”  Arella shouts.

“You were ignoring me!”  Avi whines.

“I was talking to Liam!!”

“Food fight?”  Louis whispers in my ear.  I grin and nod.

“Food fight.”  I agree.  He takes a handful of spaghetti and puts it in Avi’s hair.  She squeals and jumps up, then giggles, an evil glint entering her eyes.

“Oh, it is soo on!!”  She cries.

“Avi no!”  Arella says, half a second after Avi throws some spaghetti at Louis, who dodges it, making it hit me instead.  Within minutes a full-fledged food-fight has broken out.  Arella is hiding under the table but Avi is right in the middle of it.  Eventually Liam calls for a cease-fire.  I survey the damage done to the room.  It’ll take some cleaning…Ame better get started fast.  I’m completely covered in spaghetti sauce.  At least none of us were wearing white…

“Ugh, my dress!”  Avi whines.

“Oh no!”  Louis cries, then he grabs her hand and runs from the room.  Well this should be good.

Arella’s POV

Well that was as horrific as I thought it would be.  I’ve got spaghetti in my hair, and Avi’s dress is going to be ruined forever.  I sigh.

“Come on, I’ll show you where the bathroom is so you can take a shower.”  Liam says, offering me his hand.  I hesitate for a second, then take it.  He smiles and leads me through the house to a bathroom.  He gets me a towel.  “Here you go.”

“Thanks.”  I say, smiling a bit.  He leaves and I close the door and lock it.  I stare at myself in the mirror blankly.  He can’t possibly like me, right?  I’m just imagining things.  And so what if he does?  It’s not like I like him…right?  I know Avi likes Louis, I haven’t heard her giggle this much in years.  I take my clothes off, inspecting them for any sign of red sauce.  Luckily, most of the damage was to my hair.  I start the shower and step inside under the warm water, letting it run over me.  It feels so nice.  After a while I take my hair out of the ponytail and wash it with the shampoo Liam told me to use.  I finish quickly and turn the water off and step out, wrapping the towel around me.  I dry off a bit and put my clothes on and put my hair back in a ponytail.  Then I come out of the bathroom, and nearly walk right into Niall who is waiting there with a towel and a change of clothes.  He smiles and steps past me into the bathroom.  I just shrug and start walking.  I somehow manage to find my way back to the living room, I get lost very easily.  I see Avi sitting on the couch wearing a pair of white skinny jeans and a white tee with a towel wrapped around her head.

“Thanks again for letting me borrow some clothes.”  She’s saying to Carolyn, who just blushes and nods.  She’s wearing a new outfit as well and her hair is wet.  How many bathrooms does this place have?  I sit on the arm of the sofa next to Avi and hand her her phone.

“Cole called while you were playing air hockey with Louis.”  I tell her.  She jumps up instantly and walks to a different room to call him.  I look at Carolyn, who’s the only other person in the room.  “Does this happen often?”  I ask.

“The boys having food fights?  Yes, it happens very often.”  She says.  I sigh.
