Dating Game

Chapter 4

They got us all lined up and started telling us how the elimination process would work. They're going to have files with our names in it and inside the file it will have like a concert ticket thing and if you didn't get one they sent you home. If you got one then you waited for the other girls to leave and they told you what would be happening next. They had all of the yellow folders across two tables and I quickly found mine, hoping mine would be empty. I opened it and there was a ticket with a picture of Harry on it. I walked over to him in confusion. "Why is your face in my ticket thing?" "Because we already picked groups and you're with me." he said and smiled, showing dimples. "okay, curly. don't bore me and we are all good." "We will have some one on one time before the actual date thing." "What are we doing for that anyways?" "Well, I wanted to go see a movie. I don't know which one though." "inside out looks cute and like something that won't make me want to shoot myself." I said and he nodded. "Sounds good to me."

*Before the Date*

"So I'm gonna have a little one on one time with each of you since the movie doesn't start for another hour and a half." Harry said and the other girls started chatting excitedly. "Come on, Liz." he said and I stood up before hearing the other girls mutter something with my name in it. We walked out in the back yard and he looked relieved to be away from everyone. "This whole dating thing not going like you planned?" I asked and he chuckled a little. "Well, I didn't expect all of the girls to be clingy all the time." "except me. I don't want to be here." I said and he nodded. "Which is odd, seeing as all the guys want you here." "I'm sure not all of you like me." "We like that you don't really give a shit about us being famous and that you weren't a fan. Plus you aren't try to sleep with any of us." "was Louis serious about keeping me here to piss me off?" "I'm afraid so, love." Harry answered and I sighed. "Well, hope you're ready for all the sarcasm in this show to come from me." I joked and he laughed. "Sounds good. Send... Claire back I guess." he said and I stood up, sticking my tongue or at him before walking to the room with the other girls. "Claire." I said and motioned to the door. She excitedly stood up and ran out. I took a seat in a chair and absent minded lye checked my phone. "She probably thinks she's too good to be here so she doesn't want to talk to us." I heard some girl wearing revealing clothing say, trying to whisper. "Looks like it. I mean all the boys spend the most time talking to her and I've heard it's because she gets them off to stay here." another whispered and I couldn't stop a chuckle from escaping me. "What's so funny?" The one who just insinuated I was doing sexual things to stay here asked. "The fact that you think I'm desperate enough to not only want to be here, but to do something sexual to stay here. I didn't sign up for this. My friends signed me up as a joke, you dimwit." I said and heard someone clear their throat. "hey, Lisa, Harry wants you." Claire said, walking in awkwardly and looking at the floor. "finally." she said and fixed her hair before walking out in stripper heels and something id barely consider a skirt. "What was that all about?" Claire asked and the girl who was talking with Lisa answered before I could. "well, Lis and I were talking about her and how she was so desperate to be here that she'd give Harry a blow job to keep her here and she acted like it wasn't true." she said and I rolled my eyes. "there are cameras on us 24/7. I don't see how she'd even find somewhere to do that." "I don't know, Ashton caught her and Luke in her room doing who knows what and he was not happy." she said and I zoned out of the conversation because of Grayson texting me.
Gray: what's up, buttercup?
Liz: being accused of sucking dick. the usual.
G: tell em to shove it.
L: doesn't work 😕
G: damn. Just ignore them.
L: I get to deal with them all day. All the girls are talking like that. Idiots.
G: yes they are, but you have to play nice. Have you thrown anything yet?
L: not that you can prove.
G: I've been watching and I thought the footage of you at the concert was great.
L: thanks, Gray. now if they'd only send me home.
G: they like you.
L: 😭😭
G: oh hush, you'll be fine.
L: got to go. I'll talk to you later, gray.
G: bye, Liz.

"Alright, who's ready to go see Inside Out?" Harry asked and I stood up after all the other girls and Harry made sure I was sitting next to him on the way there so he could hear when I mumbled something sarcastic. "So, I was talking to my friend, Stacey, and she was saying how lucky I was to be here and how hot you guys were." Lisa said and I rolled my eyes. "did she mention how dumb you are?" I asked so only me and Harry could hear and he nodded and smiled, trying not to laugh at me. When we got there he'd already payed for the entire theater so the 5 of us went into an empty room and took seats in the middle of the theater. "I'm gonna go sit at the top." I said to Harry from the edge of the row. "do you want me to come?" He asked and I shook my head. "you don't have to. I'll be in the middle of the top row if you miss me." I said and he chuckled and nodded. The other girls were looking at each other as if I'd offered for him to meet me in the bathroom for a quick fück. Okay. I went up to the top of the theater and sat in the middle chair. Harry stood up and walked up to where I was. "Why are you up here?" "That Lisa girl was asking if we'd done anything, like sexual anything and didn't believe me when I said no so I got up and walked back here." he explained and I nodded. The movie started while I was nodding and the two of us sat at the top and watched the movie. The other girls wouldn't shut up and they were being loud so I threw some skittles and hit them. "excuse you!" One of them screamed and I smirked. "you're excused." I said, making her roll her eyes. "Have you found a brain yet?" I quipped and Harry chuckled with his arm across the back of my chair. They turned around and were quiet for the rest of the movie. I wasn't expecting that movie to be so emotional and I can't handle that. Like why. "You didn't have to sit with me." I said to Harry and he shrugged during the credits. "I had more fun here than I would've down there." He said and I nodded. "Yeah. It wouldn't have been as funny watching it by myself." I said and Harry smiled at me, dimples on full display. "This feels like a time where I should kiss you, but I won't because those girls would never let you hear the end of it and I don't think I'm supposed to kiss anyone." He said and I felt my cheeks heat up. "Okay." I said and we stood up when the credits finished and we were the only ones in there. I guess they walked out already. Why would Harry want to kiss me? Me of all people. And why did I blush wen he said something about it. Get it together, brain. We got in the car and the girls were glaring at me so I put my head phones in and All Time Low started to flow through my ears. "Give me therapy, I'm a walking travesty. therapy, you were never a friend to me." all of the sudden Harry was taking my right ear bud and listening to my music. We were both listening and he was tapping on the seat in between us. "What are you doing?" "Seeing what kind of music you like." he said simply and then Here's to the Zeros by Mariana's Trench came on. "I told you guys what kind of music I like when you first met me." I said and he shrugged. "I wanted to hear it." "They have YouTube for a reason." "Why use YouTube when you're right here?" "You're impossible." "just unlikely." he said and I automatically thought about Doctor Who. "did you just quote Doctor Who?" "Maybe." "could you be any more British." I said sarcastically and he laughed and shrugged. When we got to the house we all shuffled out of the car and we were one of the first groups to get back. "Alright, I'm just going to go to my room and get some stuff done." Harry said and I nodded, putting both my ear buds back in and walking to my room.
