The Tour. [One Direction/Little Mix Fanfic]

Chapter 2: Greetings.

*Niall's P.O.V.*

In a few minutes time we'll meet and go on tour with the girl group, Little Mix... I'm a mixture of nervous and excited to meet them all. I mean, they're 4 gorgeous girls, but I know that I'll end up falling for one of them because of that, and I promised myself that I would stop being such a hopeless romantic. 

"Liam, what's Jade like then?" Harry suddenly pipes up, making the final touches to his hair in the mirror. 

When there's no response, Harry turns his back to the mirror and exchanges confused glances with Louis. Louis then looks to me and Zayn who are sitting on the couch, as we both shrug in response. Liam must be in some sort of deep thought.

Louis claps his hands obnoxiously loud in front of Liam's face, startling the poor guy half to death.

"Sorry..." Liam mumbles, looking around at us all. "What did you say again?"

Harry clears his throat before turning back to the mirror to resume to whatever he was originally doing to his curly locks.

"I just asked what Jade's like," He shrugs, plastering a smirk on his face before adding a new part to his question. "In all senses."

Even though he's rolling his eyes at Harry's perverted mind, I swear I just saw Liam blush. Not to the extent where he looks like a tomato mind you, just a little flush to his cheeks at the mention of Jade's name.

It looks like I'm not the only one who captured that blush, either, as Harry's smirk grows and stretches across his face, Zayn stifles his laughter beside me, and Louis opens his trap to speak.

"Lemme guess..." Louis fake-ponders, tapping his chin lightly with his index finger. "You were thinking about Ms. Thirlwall before Harry rudely interrupted you, right?"

When Liam's blush deepens, I can't help but feel sorry for the guy. His four bandmates sitting around, teasing him about one of his friends who happens to be a girl. It sort of reminds me of the whole Demi situation with me a while ago. I'm completely over that now, though.

"Jade's just a friend of mine..." Liam mumbles, but not without letting a little blush creep on his cheeks again. "And she's lovely."

Ah, and here comes Harry's dirty response.

"So we'll...er...get along?"

I can feel that Zayn's about to explode into a full-on laughing fit, as he's making the whole damn sofa shake.

"Don't even think about messing with her, Harry," Liam rolls his eyes, keeping a stern expression on his face as he speaks. "Jade might seem attractive to you, but, underneath all that exterior, she's actually really sensitive."

Just before anything more can be said to make Zayn explode, the doorbell to our hotel room rings.

*Perrie's P.O.V.*

As I let my fingers press on the doorbell to the boys room, I felt a sudden wave of nerves come across me.

What if they don't like me?

I've never felt like this before over a few lads. I mean, they're pretty much like us, but a lad version, and with a slightly larger fanbase... But it's as if everyone, including me, wants to make a good impression on them. I'm guessing romance is always an option, but I don't really want to be thinking that far ahead, even though being on tour with 5 of the hottest lads in the world is pretty much asking for all of that.

Self-consciously, I look down at what I'm wearing.

Eh. I don't look too shabby. I'm completely jealous of what Jade is wearing though. She looks like a goddess in her jumpsuit.

A creaking sound interrupts me from my thoughts. The door...

Standing in front of us are two boys; one with brown, curly locks and one with an extremely short, brown quiff. As I examine their features, my brain triggers that the curly-haired one must be that player, Harry. I don't remember seeing the other one in our news-searching, so maybe that's Jade's friend, Liam?

"Uh, hi," Harry awkwardly greets us, scratching the back of his neck. "I'm Harry."

He stretches out his hand for me to shake and I snort in response. He looks taken aback by my lack of respect, so I decide to clarify myself.

"We've seen the headlines," I roll my eyes, before pointing to his curly locks. "So that's the famous hair that's meant to attract every living woman into your bed, huh?"

Before he can say anything to retort, I hear a new voice come from behind the lads that are already standing by the door.

"Not just women!"

As I listen, I spot a new figure arrive in the doorway, trailed by two others. Judging by his looks and the photos we've seen of the boys, I'm gathering that this is Louis, and it would be a lie to say that he's not just as hot in person as he is in all of them pictures we've seen of him. I wouldn't dare make a move on him though, not just because of Eleanor, but because I'm not as low as Mr. Curly-Fries over there.

The other two figures resemble the likes of Niall Horan and Zayn Malik. I'm pretty sure that's them. They seem alright, but nowhere near as 'well-built' as Louis.

Louis smirks playfully at his own comment and gives us all a little wave.

"You girls must be that hot girl group touring with us, right?" He asks, well, more rather states. "And we're that hot boy band touring with you... So, let's get some names!"

I chuckle inwardly at his apparent eagerness, then open my mouth to introduce myself. I'm usually the one that introduces myself first, you see. It's just some common routine we go through whenever we meet people. I think Jesy originally thought of it... She likes to be organised and, to be honest, without her we'd be pretty much stuffed when it comes to our agenda.

"Perrie." I say, shaking hands with each of the boys in turn. Well, each of the boys with the exception of Harry Styles, that is. I have no respect for that man and doubt that I ever will.

Next, Leigh-Anne steps forward, and I swear I can see Niall's eyes light up as she does so. It could easily just be my imagination, though.

"I'm Leigh-Anne," She says, straightening up her outfit and giving each of the boys a firm handshake, one-by-one. "But if that's a mouthful then feel free to call me Leigh or something along those lines."

As Leigh-Anne shuffles back into our formation, I see that Jesy isn't moving forward when she's supposed to go and introduce herself next. I give her a slight nudge as she returns to Earth. Hmm... Strange.

*Jesy's P.O.V.* 

I just stand there, mouth slight agape, staring at awe at this tanned version of perfection.

His hair is like ice-cream. I know it sounds weird, but it's so hard to resist the urge to go up and touch it. It looks exactly like my favourite blend and everything. I wonder how long it takes him to comb through it, and I wonder if-

I feel Perrie's arm jab me lightly in the side. Oh god. I was totally just drooling over Zayn Malik and forgot my cue. I just hope nobody saw.

"I'm Jesy." I introduce myself, giving all of the boys friendly smiles. I make sure to give Zayn a slightly happier and longer smile though. However, as I do so, I feel like someone is shooting daggers through the side of my head.

I try to ignore the tension I can feel arising inside my head by stepping back and letting Jade finish off the introductions from our side.

Even though, somehow, I can't help but wonder who was giving me that glare and why they would even give it to me in the first place...

*Liam's P.O.V.*

As Jade leaps forward dramatically like her usual bubbly self, I manage to contain my chuckle. I can't have the boys teasing me even more about her.

"And - saving the best for last - I'm Jade!" She announces, placing her hands on her hips and letting a wide grin take over her face.

I smile at her enthusiasm as the other boys copy my actions. She's too adorable sometimes.

Then, remembering what was said earlier, I turn to Harry to study his expressions.

He lets his eyes roam freely up and down Jade's slim figure, clearly checking her out, before flashing a toothy grin to her. She quickly blushes, but manages to hide the crimson running through her cheeks by turning her attention elsewhere. I still saw her blush, though...

"Alrighty then!" Niall pipes up, probably recognising the awkward state of affairs going on around him. "I'm Niall, and these are my lads; Harry, Louis, Zayn and, as Jade will already know, Liam."

He points to each one of us as he says our names, and I manage to capture another subtle blush escape to the surface of Jade's cheeks just by the mere mention of Harry's name. Is it possible that Jade is already starting to fall for Harry's womanising tactics? Because it sure looks like it, and I'm not liking how cocky Harry is being at all.

"Should we go inside?" Perrie asks, probably trying to save Jade from any further blushing. 

We all nod our heads and begin to make our way into the room, when Perrie stops us dead in our tracks.

"Ladies first, Styles," She turns her nose up at Harry, who I realise is leading the rest of the boys in front of the girls. "Didn't your mother ever teach you how to properly treat women?"

As Harry's eyes appear to darken, he silently steps back as Perrie strides past and into the room, the rest of the girls following meekly like scared sheep.

Well, except Jade. She's not a scared sheep. She's just a cute, innocent sheep who I happen to have fallen for. And trust me... I've fallen hard.

"Sorry about her..." She mumbles, more to Harry than to the rest of us, as she strolls inside in pursuit of her friends.

I can't help but feel a little disheartened at how much attention she seems to be giving Harry as he stands there, smirking his way to victory. It's not even the fact that she most probably doesn't requite my feelings towards her that hurts the most, but instead it's the fact that I know Harry is only playing a little game with her right now. He does it with all the girls. He'll leave her heartbroken. He's just a player in his game-for-two.

...And he always wins.

{A/N: I hope y'all enjoyed reading this chapter. I know it's only really them meeting each other, and it's still a 'first impressions' type chapter, but drama is sure to ensue in the next chapter! Also, I will hopefully be updating more often now that it's the weekend and all. Sorry it took me almost 1 whole week to update, but stay tuned for some drama that is soon-to-come!}
