"Coming!" I yelled to Harry when he knocked on my door.

I opened the door and saw him grinning a huge smile on his face and breathing heavily.

"Did you run here?" I joked.

"No." He said with a laugh and walked into my apartment.

"Why are you so out of breath?"

"Some paparazzi were following me so I ran." He said and gave me a kiss. I giggled and we sat on the couch.

Me and him were still keeping our relationship a secret because he didn't want me to get hate. The hate was actually getting really bad for Eleanor, Danielle, and Perrie lately. It was making the lads mad and it made Harry be more secretive about mine and his relationship.

"So what do you want to do tonight?" I asked.

"Can you help me get some thing's ready for Louis' surprise party?"

"Sure thing love." I said sounding British and he smiled and then gave me a kiss.

"Ok. So Eleanor sent the invites and all she asked me to do was call the cater and decide the food. She gave me a list." He said while pulling a piece of paper out. "She said I can choose where to get it from."

"Ok so where do you want to get it from?" I asked while getting my laptop to look up the number.

"Nandos for Niall." Harry said with a laugh.

"Sounds good." I say while laughing.

I gave him the number and he calls to order all the food. It only took a few minutes and they agreed on everything.

"So the party is this Saturday right?" I asked while getting up to get water.

He follows me into the kitchen and takes my hand.

"Yep. You're coming right?" He asked.

"Yeah. Except what do we tell people what we are?" I asked confused.

"My friend."

"Ok sounds good." I turned around to clean up the counter.

He wrapped his arms around me and started to kiss my neck. I turned around to start to kiss him.

"Is Ellie here?" He asked while continuing to kiss me.

"No." I said and he smiles against my lips.

We continued kissing and it got pretty intense. He led me over to the couch and then we heard the front door open. Harry immediately gets off of me and we both sat up.

"Hello." I said.

"Sorry to interrupt." Ellie says with a wink.

Harry and I both blushed as she walked into her room.

"Fun while it lasted." I said.

"We can continue." He said with his cheeky grin.

I rolled my eyes at him and turned the "telly" on. But we ended up staying on the couch and cuddling all night long.

RING. RING. RING.

I woke up to my phone buzzing meaning it was time to wake up. I looked at the time and realized I was going to be late for school. I run out of bed and headed into my bathroom. I quickly brushed my hair and teeth and then changed into jeans and a sweatshirt. I put my hair in a bun and then got some boots on.

I practically run outside and got in a cab to take me to uni. I ended up being only slightly late to class and since it was a huge class my teacher did not even realize.

After class I went to another one right after. I only had two classes since it was a Friday. After the second class Eleanor and I decided to go get a coffee. We met at a nice little coffee shop and I saw her already there.

"Sorry I'm late." I said.

"It's ok love." She said with a smile.

I got my coffee and sat down with her.

"So ready for the party tomorrow?" She asked while taking a sip of tea.

"Yeah." I said with a smile.

We talked for what seemed like hours and then I finally decided to head home. I walked back into my apartment when it started to snow really heavy. Luckily it was not that far of a walk. When I got back to the apartment I saw Ellie and Niall watching the telly.

"Hey!" She said with a huge smile.

"Hey! Hey Niall." I said and he gives me a smile.

I thought they were a cute couple but Harry kept telling me how Niall didn't want a girlfriend at the moment. I went to my room and called Harry.

"Hey love." He said.

"Hey! Want to hang tonight?" I asked.

"Yeah sure. Want me to come over?"

"Niall and Ellie are here. So if you want I can come over."

"You don't have a car. I don't want you to walk. How about I come pick you up and we go get take out and head back to my place?"

"Ok! Can't wait." I said and then hung up.

A few minutes later Harry showed so I told Ellie where I was going and then left.

Harry and I spent the night fooling around while eating and watching movies. I eventually fell asleep and woke up around two in the morning. Harry brought me home and gave me a sweet kiss goodnight and promised to see me tomorrow night.

"BROOKE! ARE YOU READY?!" Ellie yelled from the kitchen.

"Almost!" I say while putting the rest of my makeup on. I was wearing a deep purple dress and some cute black heels while my hair was down in curls.

"Ready!" I said while walking out to see Danielle and Eleanor waiting there, looking stunning in their outfits. Harry and I didn't drive together because we both knew paparazzi would be there.

"Let's go." Danielle said with a smile.

We all got in her car and drove to the club. I was so excited since it was New Year's and I knew it was going to be a great party. The lads were with Louis and were going to bring him to the party.

When we arrived there, there was already a lot of people. Everyone was dancing and drinking but then Eleanor yelled they were here. Everyone quieted down and waited for Louis to walk in.

"SURPRISE!" People shouted as he and the lads walked in the door.

Louis started laughing and went straight over to Eleanor and gave her a huge kiss. I saw Harry and smiled at him. He walked over to me and gave me a hug.

"I wish I could kiss you right now. You look beautiful." He whispered in my ear.

"Thanks." I said while blushing like crazy.

The party was going great. Everyone was dancing and eating and drinking, Harry especially. Niall freaked over Nandos and gave Ellie a big hug. While waiting for the count down to begin I would talk to Harry as much as possible, but just talking.

A few hours into the party I could tell Harry was getting drunk. He came over to me and wrapped his arm around my waist. I dragged him into a dark corner so no one would see. He immediately started kissing me but I pushed him off.

"We could get caught! Harry stop!" I said but he kept going into kiss me.

I was giving him a kiss right back when I could tell there was a flash. I opened my eyes and saw someone with a camera and a huge smile on their face as they ran away. I turned to look at Harry who was way to drunk to even realize that mine and his relationship was no longer a secret.
