Moments Unseen (One Direction)

Chapter 15- Coffee Shop Soundtrack

**** Jessyka's POV

Tonight was amazing. I walked in the house unable to wipe the smile from my face. I stumbled into the living room and automatically froze. Niall was here. Why was Niall here? He wasn't supposed to be here!

"When were you going to tell me you are dating Harry?" In hindsight I should've noticed the black SUV in the driveway.

"Uhh.... I'm not. I mean this was our first date but it was just decided like two minutes ago that it was a date. Are you angry?" I don't know why, but I really didn't want Niall to know about this yet.

"Ugh.. No I'm not angry." He groaned. "I just didn't even know you talked to Harry, let alone liked him."

"Well I didn't like him." Now it was my turn to groan. "Look, we've been texting and he's been helping me with some school work. Then tonight he asked if we could hang out after we finished my work. It's not like we have some elaborate romance. Besides you knew how much I liked Zayn."

"But you told Zayn you just wanted to be friends? Because we only have a couple weeks left here..." He questioned. Clearly, he's talked to Zayn.

"No.. I told him I only wanted to be friends because we were already having so many problems and we weren't even together yet. And a few weeks wasn't enough time to fix it and get off to a new, better start. Who knows if anything will even happen with Harry. I went out with him tonight and it was just fun." He's my best friend shouldn't he be happy for me?

"You're right, and maybe you need more time to get to know both of them before it turns into something more..." He's finally making sense.

"Exactly. I'm not trying to have a relationship. Especially not with someone I don't even really know yet." There was a silence... "I really am just trying to have some fun. I know you guys are all mega stars but surely you can understand that."

"Yeh I understand that. Harry understands that. But Zayn doesn't." What did he mean? "I was just coming to see how you were. I guess, I should've called first." He came up to me and gave me a 'Horan Hug' then walked straight out the front door.

Tonight was one of those nights that I just needed to write. I went up to my room and had a quick shower then pulled out my notebook:

"Scars can heal. They can also get worse; they can get deeper. Funny things, scars. They seem so simple yet, behind each one is a story. What if an entire person was just one big scar? What if one single person was hurt so many times that their entire being is just one big scar? What is their story? Will that wall of scarred skin ever heal enough to let someone in, at risk of getting a new scar in its stead?"

**** Niall's POV

I can't believe him. This is the first time in a long time we've seen Zayn actually care for a girl and Harry is just trying to ruin it! Zayn and I had the perfect plan for Jess to like him and be with him, not Harry. Now, all that hard work is being put to shame. I've got to talk to Harry, and make sure Zayn doesn't find out. As soon as I got back to the hotel room I went and sat down at the couch. Harry was the only one in here at the time; grinning ear to ear watching some movie.

"So how was your night?" I asked.

"It was good." Was all the reply he gave.

"Jessyka certainly enjoyed herself." He stopped what he was doing and looked up at me, wide eyed. I didn't bother saying anything else. Neither did Harry. We sat in silence for a moment before I got up and went to bed.

****Jessyka's POV

I was annoyingly awoken on Monday morning by a loud beeping noise. Silently cursing my alarm, I begrudgingly rolled out of bed - literally. I landed with a thump on the floor. "Ow" I whined as I rubbed my sore bum on the way to my en-suite. It's only 6:30 in the morning, but I have work today. I'm sure once I get there I'll be in a better mood; I'm just really not a morning person.
