Secrets

six

I couldn't fall asleep at all. I think I considered climbing on the rooftop or going out to the gardens a couple times, but then I remembered the leprechaun was still using me as his teddy bear as he slept. Life is hard when your a stuffed animal. It gave me a lot of time to think though. About Harry, mostly. I honestly felt terrible. Not because of what I supposedly did, but because he believed her. I know it's not my fault that he's dating her, but I can't help think that I should do something about it. I mean he seemed like an amazing guy until Hayley walked in. It kinda went all downhill after that...

I kept thinking about him. He couldn't leave my mind. It was like his face was superglued onto the front of my brain. Not that I'm complaining.

I must have fallen asleep around 4:30 or something, because when Niall woke me up the next morning I swear it felt like I got 2 hours of sleep. Grumbling, I snatched my pillow from underneath me and threw it in his general direction. I heard an "oof" a couple seconds later and then "hey, Bella!" Success.

Groaning, I turned back around and buried my head in the covers. I'm not a morning person at all.

"Bella you gotta get up. The girls will be here in 30 minutes to take you around London for the day. They say they wanna bond with ya" Shit. 30 minutes?!

I sprang out of bed and ran out the door only to bump into a human wall. Well, not exactly, but it felt like one. Damn, management really has them work out. I looked up and saw a glassy eyed, tornado haired Harry running his eyes confusingly, surprised that someone had just ran into him.

"Sorry" I whispered. This day wasn't getting off to a great start...

He was about to say something when he looked down and saw it was me. His expression immediately changed and pushed me aside with a huff. A second later, out came Hayley with bed head, makeup smeared and in nothing but a bright pink lace bra and underwear. I shuddered at the thought of what those two did last night. Ew.

I walked off into the bathroom and took a nice hot shower. It's really the only way I can wake up in the mornings. Then, I applied some natural makeup, foundation, concealer, mascara, eyeliner, and lip gloss. Nothing too heavy; I didn't want be like Hayley. Satisfied with my look for the day, I went back to my room to pick out my day's clothes. Hmmmm. Nothing too slutty, but not to conservative either. I wasn't the daughter of a nun. It was starting to get a little chilly, I mean it was September in London. I decided on a simple white v-neck tee with a white and black wool cardigan for the top and black leggings with brown boots for the bottom. I had to admit. I looked cute. I put my hair in a messy side fishtail and took one last glance in the mirror before heading down to breakfast.

When I got there, Eleanor and Sophia were already there waiting for me. Hayley was no where in sight. THANK GOD.

"Let's go, love. We got a lot to do today! We bought you breakfast; its in the car now c'mon!" Eleanor literally pushed me out the door while Sophia gave Liam a quick peck before shutting the door behind her.

"Is Hayley not coming?" I asked. I mean I wanted to make sure before I started to get my hopes up ok? The two girls looked at each other before bursting into laughter.

"Oh god no. Not after what happened last night. We were afraid you two would hit it off, actually," Sophia explained.

"Yeah, we can't stand her, but we can't really say anything about it either." Eleanor piped up.

"I feel ya" I replied. Literally. My ass was still on fire.

We ended up just touring London while trying to avoid the mobs of fans that followed us, not to mention the paps. El and Soph were used to it, and they just kept their heads down and trudged through the the crowds. I didn't want trouble, so I followed them. We went to the London Eye, Big Ben, and the O2 arena where the boys would be opening their Where We Are Tour in 2 weeks. I gotta say, it was huge. We stopped at a small cafe nearby for lunch with a view of the river.
