Alexis’ POV
I gasped as Harry swept me in for a quick kiss, listening to the snap of cameras from the few fans who had managed to find us. Harry groaned as he pulled away, obviously realizing the stupidity of his actions.
“I’ll take care of it,” he whispered, “just get back to the hotel in one piece.” I chuckled and nodded, waving slightly as he ran to his car.
“Wow, what was that?” Natalie asked, pulling me toward our waiting cab.
“I don’t really know. Stupid, maybe?” I said lightly, although my stomach was riddled with knots. What was he going to do? He was going to be in so much trouble, and it’s my fault.
“Yeah, it was that, but what were you thinking?”
“Oh, I don’t know, he kissed me, I wasn’t going to push him away. The pictures were already taken anyways.”
“I wonder how he’s going to dig himself out of this one.”
“I don’t know,” I answered, feeling the all too familiar weight of worry resting on my chest. I sighed and looked out the window, feeling my phone vibrate but not having the heart to pick it up and read the message.
Before I knew it, we were back at the hotel, and the message on my phone still sat unread. I grabbed my purse and walked wearily up the stairs of the hotel, feeling exhaustion hit me like a freight train. I could tell Natalie was thinking the same thing.
“Want to take a nap and then watch a movie together later?” I asked, looking over to Natalie for an answer. She nodded and then yawned sleepily. I giggled, stepping into my hotel room as she stepped into hers.
The first thing I did was change, I put on my flannel pajama bottoms, which still smelt like Harry, and a new camisole I pulled out of my suitcase. Then I washed my face and threw my hair up in a ponytail. I walked over to the bed, grabbing my phone along the way, and threw myself onto it. Sighing as I laid down. My phone vibrated again, and I decided I might as well check the message.
From Harry:
I talked to management. Only a couple pictures made it online, but I got the feeling they aren’t upset about it at all. Actually I know they aren’t upset about it, but I’m not going to tell you exactly what they said. Do you want to catch a movie later on tonight? Probably would be safest to watch it at your room, but if you’d rather come here that’s fine.
From Harry:
Hello, earth to Alexis. Time would be about nine. :)
I sighed, typing back a quick reply.
From Alexis:
Yes, nine is fine. You bringing the movie? Sorry, I was worried. I don’t like technology when I’m worried. I’m glad nobody was angry. Thanks for taking care of it. I’d really liked to know what they said but if you aren’t going to tell me then fine.:) See you later, alligator. I’m taking a nap zzzz.
I set my alarm for five, so Natalie and I could watch our movie too.
“Alexis, Alexis! Wake up!” Natalie’s voice yelled from my phone. I smiled, getting up and shutting off the alarm before making my way to Natalie’s room.
“Hey, Natalie, would you like to watch a movie now? I’m watching one with Harry at nine,” I stated casually. Then I was laughing. I’m catching a movie with Harry Styles, no big deal. He’s just the boy I’ve been head over heels in love with my entire life, not a big deal at all.
I was snapped out of my fit of hysterics by a groaning Natalie. “Shut up, Alexis.” Just then, her phone went off, an alarm similar to mine, but my voice as opposed to hers. “Urggh, Alexis I had, like five minutes left. I can not believe you woke me up,” Natalie continued. I sighed.
“Natalie five minutes is not life or death. Please calm down and come pick a movie from my large selection.”
“Whatever, it could be. I’ll be over in thirty seconds. I’ve got to find my phone.” I tossed her phone to her from the bedside table and walked over to my room, getting the television set up just as Natalie walked in.
“Well, hello there Sunshine. How are you?” I inquired sarcastically, laughing at the scowl that appeared on Natalie’s face.
“Oh I’m peachy, just applying for a new best friend who understands the use of alarm clocks.”
I laughed again, chucking an empty DVD case in her general direction, but missing entirely. I decided to take the liberty of choosing a movie, and chose Leap Year. A timeless classic Natalie and I watch every time we get together.
“Wow, I didn’t expect this movie at all. Oh no, never would have guessed,” Natalie entailed sarcastically, tossing me my phone as we made our way to the couch to sit down.
“That’s okay, we haven’t gotten the chance to watch it here yet. It’s traveling everywhere with us,” I said, checking my phone through the beginning advertisements.
From Harry:
Sleep well, love. Hope you dream of me.;)
I laughed at his text, remembering my dream of Natalie and I in a grocery store looking for One Direction cards, and shot back a reply.
From Alexis:
I did, actually. Although not in the way I’m sure you’re insinuating. I’ll tell you when you come to visit.
I looked over at Natalie, who was gazing questioningly in my direction. I shook my head and let her read the text before explaining my dream to her. We were soon both in a fit of giggles.
“So, do you have any, ah, plans tonight with Niall?” I asked nonchalantly, waiting to press play on the movie.
“Yeah, we’re going out to eat,” Natalie smiled over to me. I laughed.
“Of course, food for the both of you,” I said, pressing the play button so we could get lost in the love story laid out ahead of us.

My song quote:
“I had the week that came from hell, and yes I know that you could tell. But you’re like the net under the ledge, when I go flying off the edge, you go flying off as well. And if we only die once, I wanna die with... You got something I need. In this world full of people, there’s one killing me, and if we only die once, I wanna die with you.”

That’s all, folks.<3
