[AN: So the lines in italics are the lyrics to a song called “Pretend It’s Okay” by Little Mix. I actually outlined this entire chapter with the lovely @Liams_Turtle1 .I told her what I wanted to do, and that I wanted to incorporate a Little Mix song. I’m fangirling over their CD that just came in the mail the other day. And together we picked this song. And Jordan? There is no “killing someone drama.” I promise.
[ANNABELLE’S POV]
“I can’t believe you are supporting this,” I groaned. “He’s being paranoid and overprotective.”
“I would do the same thing,” Liam protested from his spot on the couch. “He is her guardian.”
“I’m the one who forged his signature in the first place!” Okay, I admit it. I’m getting a little hysterical here.
“Anna, just stop,” Angie grumbled. “Arguing with Liam isn’t going to fix this.” I sighed and took a deep breath as I sat next to her on the couch. I made sure to purposely move away from Liam.
What would you do? What would you say?
How does it feel? Pretend it's OK
“Louis should not have freaked out like that,” I grumbled. “You two were just holding hands. He probably wouldn’t have cared or thought anything bad if Niall hadn’t of said what he did."
“Niall?” Angie asked. I nodded and Liam glared at me. What? Niall is the one who spoke up. After finding them in the closet Louis had yanked harry out and started shouting at him. Angelica had been terrified by the angry Louis, and wouldn’t let him touch her now. He couldn’t kick Harry out of his own house so Louis had decided Angie was grounded to my house. When she rejected him physically pulling away at his touch Louis had broken. He yelled the order stating that he and Liam were the only “boys” Angelica was allowed to go near for the foreseeable future. And stupid Liam had agreed.
“Niall might have casually mentioned that Harry kissed you,” Liam softly spoke pulling me from my thoughts. “He really didn’t mean for Louis to overhear him.” Liam was lying. He had to know that was a lie. Up until Louis had banned all the boys from Angelica, Niall had been practically gleeful that they had been caught together. Liam tried to put his arms around me, but I shrugged him off. Liars don’t get rewards.
“Anna, please don’t fight with Liam because of me,” Angie pled. Now I felt like an idiot. A petty idiot.
“We’re not fighting,” I sighed. “It’s just a discussion.” She shot me a disbelieving look. “An intense discussion?”
My eyes deceive me, but it's still the same
Pretend it's OK
“How about I go make us a snack or something,” Angie suggested getting up and walking out of my sight into the kitchen. I think she was tired of listening to me act like a petulant four year old. “You two stay and discuss more if you’d like.” I rolled my eyes at her sarcastic tone.
“Why do I suddenly feel like the least mature one here?” I asked Liam who merely grinned at me.
