Live While We're Young (One Direction fanfic)

Chapter 18 (Betrayal)

Alissa POV

It's been a month now since Harry and I made our little promise to go somewhere every Sunday. Harry is absolutely the best at planning dates, he will always take me to the best places, besides the Hollywood sign we have been to a movie theatre (which he rented so we were the only ones), helicopter ride, and today we will be going somewhere else. Of course I don't know where cause Harry insists on telling me last minute.

I was actually enjoying living in the house with everyone now, I had become closer with everyone in it making it that much more fun. I avoided Brianna though, she always had some smirk on her face when she saw me like she had some secret that she found amusing when she looked at me. Every time I would talk to Liam I could l see her glaring at me.

On the bright side my ankle was finally out of the boot, I can even jog now, it only hurts when I run, but the doctor said that in a couple months I will be back to normal strength anyways.

"So can I know where we are going today, so I can get ready?" I asked standing in Harry's doorway.

"I was thinking the beach." Harry said as he came up to and wrapped his arms around my waist.

I looked around the hallway "Hey, watch it someone might see." I said whispearing.

"How much longer do we have to hide this?" Harry asked putting his head on top of mine.

"I don't know, not any longer I hope." I answered burying my head in his chest.

I remembered that I had promised myself that I would tell everyone as soon as we became official, but weren't we official? I mean he hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend or anything but we have been going on dates and we kissed all the time.

"Well go get ready, let's leave before everyone starts getting up." Harry said after a while.

I went to my room and thought about what I should wear. I decided to wear a pink bandeau bikini with white shorts and a black crop tank top to cover it up. I left my hair in it's natural waves and applied a light amount of make up that was waterproof. I kept feeling like it was time to tell Zayn though... I needed someone's opinion. I thought about asking Liam, he was probably the most mature and would know what to do in these types of situations.

I knocked on his door and heard him say come in, I opened the door only to see him and Brianna talking.

"Alissa! What's up?" He asked looking over at me.

I stared at Brianna who was giving me her evil looks. "Oh I was just wondering if I could talk to you." I asked looking back at Liam.

"I don't know if you noticed, but we are kind of busy right now." Brianna answered crossing her arms.

"Brianna!" Liam said looking at her. "It's fine, I'll be right back." Liam said as he walked out of the room and stood in the hallway with me.

I told him everything, why Harry and I were never home on Sunday's, how I felt about Harry, and how I didn't know how I could possibly tell Zayn. Somewhere in between I ended up crying. Liam gave me a hug and tried to calm me down.

"Shh, Just give it some time and wait till you guys are ready." Liam said.

"Thanks." I said wiping the couple of tears that had formed in my eyes. I gave Liam a smile before noticing that Brianna was standing in the doorway, her jaw was clenched and she was staring at me like I had just made a huge mistake.

I rolled my eyes, and told Liam I was going out again with Harry and would be back before lunch. I walked downstairs after grabbing my bag and sunglasses. Harry was already in the car, I gave him a smile as I climbed into the passenger seat. We drove to Malibu Beach, we probably wouldn't be seen here because it was really early in the morning right now, also even though the guys had many fans it wasn't as crazy here in America yet. Although to be on the safe side we both placed our sunglasses and found a spot far away from anyone. We placed a blanket on the sand and sat down, we talked about things and had lunch before we walked along the shoreline, I couldn't help but look at Harry's abs.
