[Recap:

Louis fell onto the floor and I couldn't help but laugh. "So Zayn, have you talked to Lily lately?" I asked. Lily and Zayn weren't dating, but they did talk to each other a lot. "No and I kind of don't want to," he said. "Why is that? Did she do something wrong?" I'm not even sure why I asked that. Lily wasn't that great with guys. She kind of gets a little too clingy too fast. I mean, I feel bad that guys reject her, but it's kind of her own fault. "Well, all she talks about is how jealous of you she is and has gotten very annoying." That's right, I'm dating someone famous and she isn't. "Well, what about Joee?" I asked. Lily, Joee and I became great friends after the talent show. "Yeah, I've talked to her recently." "And..." "And what?" "Is there anything there?" "I'm not sure. I mean, she is a pretty girl, but I have my heart set on someone else." "Awh, does my little Zayn have a crush on someone?" I lightly pushed his shoulder and he chuckled. "I guess you could say that Katie." "Who is she? Do I know her? Is she pretty? Does she go to our school? Tell me Zayn!" I was hopping up and down on the couch like a little hyper kid on a sugar high waiting for Zayn's answer. "Yeah, I guess you could say you know her." "Well, does she like you back?" "I'm not sure, maybe." That's when I realized, Zayn was talking about me.]

*******************

In my head I was going, "Oh no. This can't be happening. Oh no. Why me?" but on the outside I just smiled at Zayn and turned my attention to Louis, who was still lying on the floor.

"How's Antarctica down there Louis?" I joked.

He sat up and squeezed himself between Liam and I.

"It's cold," he said as he shivered.

I looked over at the kitchen and noticed that Niall and Harry were still talking; what in the world could they be talking about. Then I thought about, maybe when I had hopped on Niall's back and whispered, "I got you," in his ear, Harry got jealous. But if that's the reason, why are they talking to each other forever?

"Katie!" Louis yelled.

I looked at Louis and tilted my head.

"What Lou?"

"I've been saying your name like five times."

"I'm sorry."

"Are you distracted or something?"

"No. What did you want?"

"Liam was asking what movie you wanted to watch."

"No offense Liam, but not Toy Story again." I saw him shrug.

"Then what do you want to watch, Katie?" Zayn asked.

"What about The Time Traveler's Wife? Or The Notebook? Or A Walk To Remember?" I was hoping they were getting the pattern.

"So pretty much a chick flick?"

"Hey now! They are cute love stories...even if someone dies in the end."

"Can we pick a movie that won't make you cry?" Liam asked. I sighed.

"Fine, I'll pick a non-crying movie. What about The Ring?"

"You're kidding right? You go from a chick flick to a scary movie," Zayn said.

"Well you guys asked me what movie I wanted to watch. You said no to the chick flicks and apparently now you're saying no to the scary movie."

"You guys, just let her pick a movie," Harry said from the kitchen.

"Do you really want to watch The Ring, Katie?" Zayn asked.

"No, of course not. I want to watch Taken. You know, that movie with Liam Neeson in it?"

"Ok, as long as you don't change your mind," Liam said as he got up.

"On second thought--"

"Katie!" Louis exclaimed.

"I'm kidding. I'm just playing with you guys."
