Discovering You

your secrets

Please don't touch me please don't touch me. I mentally begged as i was introduced to four other boys, niall, who was quickly becoming my saving grace, had been smart enough to not over load me with inviting the whole crew, just the boys i would be interviewing.  

"I'm harry," a gorgeous boy with exquisite green eyes grinned at me. Small dimples poked out at me as I made a sound i hope resembled my name at least a little bit.  

"Luxton?" Niall called to me from a few rooms  away. I quickly exited from the room where each boy was trying to talk to me.

"You ok? You look like you're ready to have a panic attack as soon As someone Is Within A Foot Of you"  

"I'm just..." What adjective would work here? Tired was not only a cliche but wouldn't really explain why I was freaking out over someone standing too close, "a little on edge. I'm fine," i said flashing him a, I'mreallyfinepleasestoptalking smile and nodded towards the living room where two boys were rough housing, while the other two observed with amused looks on their faces.

"Boys this is Luxton," Niall said, his voice urging me forward, "so stop acting like bloody barbarians and make her feel welcome,"  

The two boys that were wrestling were the first to literally bound to my side.

"We already met," the boy with curly hair and dimples smiled, making his dimples look like craters, but what was his name? Something common... nick? Harold? No it was Harry!

"I remember, you're Harry!" I smiled as he chuckled.

"And I'm Louis!" The other boy said pushing forward, he had soft green eyes that sparkled as he smiled, he had an energy around him that I enjoyed. He was the opposite of me, he was happy and energetic and seemed to know something that no one else did and was just waiting for the perfect moment to let the cat out of the bag.

"I'm Luxton," i said giving a professional smile that would hopefully replace a handshake. Louis started to say something, when a tattooed man with black hair came up.

"I'm zayn," and  that was it, he retreated back to his spot on the couch and i stared at him quizzically until another brunette, so many brunettes how was I supposed to keep track of who was who? "I'm Liam," he said warmly before kissing my cheek gently, dammit. That made my contact limit down to three, my sister was going to want a hug when she got here which would bring me down to two, so if no one else touched me I would be fine.  

"Luxton?" Liam asked a concerned look on his face, I took a deep breath and realised i had been holding my breath.

"Yeah I'm fine," i said before bolting to the bathroom. While there I quickly rinsed my face and then scrubbed my hands until they were bright pink, I  emerged with a painted on smile, where each boy was staring at me with concern. "I just needed to use the bathroom," i smiled. I cursed at myself for making this as awkward as possible, "so who wants to be interviewed first?"

"Well," Louis said with his mysterious grin, "we thought we would interview you..."

I froze. That wasn't part of the plan.

"Uh no. I have to write a book,"

"You'll have six months on a bus with us...Trust me you'll have plenty of time." Louis smirked. 

"I'm not exciting i promise," I said, just as the door bell rang. Attention soon shifted off of me, and towards the boxes of pizza that had just arrived. All except Louis, who was staring at me quizzically.

"Ill learn your secrets," he whispered toward me, before turning towards the other boys and becoming the bright happy man he was before.
