Adopted By Elounor

Chapter 5

Previously in Adopted By Elounor;

"How long will Alex be with us?" He paused for a second then looked me in the eyes and said...

"I hope forever..."

Harry's POV:

Forever, eh?

What's that supposed to mean?

"What about her mom...? I know her dads gone, but her mom...?" I asked.

Louis looked at me with sad eyes.

"Let's just say, she's better with us. It's not my job to tell you why, she will when she's ready." Louis sighed, standing up and going to his and Eleanor's room.

Why is she better here? What happened? What are they not telling me?

All I know is, I'm glad she's staying with us, that way I can really get to know her.

Niall's POV:

After Louis left, I went into mine and Harry's room, Harry following hot on my tail. I sat down in bed, my hands resting behind my head.

I could not stop thinking about the kiss that Alex and I shared... It was great.

The moment our lips touched, fireworks erupted. And I'm not talking little fireworks you light in your backyard... I'm talking 4th of July fireworks.

I wonder if she felt fireworks too... Probably not.

My hand flew to my lips, my finger lightly brushing over the place Alex's lips once were.

I wonder if the kiss we shared not too long ago is the only kiss we'll ever have? The only meaningful moment we have together?

That would suck for me...

"Missing the little girls' lips?" Harry asked, furrowing his eyebrows at me.

I wish these guys would stop referring to her as a little girl. So what if she's sixteen? She seems mature for her age, and hanging out with her I see her as someone our age. No difference.

"No." I lied.

The truth is, ever since we pulled apart I've just been longing to have the feeling of her perfect lips on mine. Her lips weren't chapped, or too wet, the kiss was perfect. She's perfect. I couldn't tell Harry that though... He'd have no problem making fun of me.

"Sure." Harry chuckled coldly.

"What is wrong with you? Why are you all of the sudden being such an asshole?" I snapped, narrowing my eyes at him, my lips forming into a straight line.

Seriously, he wasn't acting like this earlier! Ever since the kiss he's been- the kiss!

"Are you jealous?" I laughed.

His head shot in my direction, his eyes wide but quickly changed to a look of anger and humor.

"Why would I be jealous? It was just a dare- besides... She's nothing but a little girl. You don't love her, and I doubt she loves you." He chuckled.

"Well, I am her favourite for a reason! And you're not her favourite for a reason." I smirked.

His face turned red with fury, and his fingers curled into fists.

"Take it back."

"Why, Styles? Can't handle the truth?" I grinned.

I guess I did a good job on pissing him off, cause after my last remark, he was across the room and throwing punches at my face.
