The Big Brother

The Text and Talk

** Destiny's POV **

I was home alone once I got there. My mum was working late and my brother was at my grandma's.

I thought the text I had just gotten from Harry. What ex was he talking about? I heard he had a few? Was he talking about Nickie and me? Did he like me? I couldn't take this questioning myself anymore I had to know. I looked at the alarm clock next to my bed. It showed 12:30 p.m. it was Saturday. Harry didn't ask me if I needed to babysit so I guessed he was at home. I texted him.

Me: Harry you up?

Harry: Yeah. Just walking around the flat. Something wrong?

Me: I need to talk to you.

Harry: Then call. Lol :P

Me: In person. 

Harry: Oh ok. Do you wanna meet up some place or are you gonna come over here?

Me: I will come over there since you have Amelia.

Harry: True. See you in a few. 

I called my mum and told her I was going to spend the night at Nickie's because we needed to talk about somethings in person. And once I got off the phone with her I got my purse and walked outside. I soon remembered we only have one car. "Shit!"

"What is?"

"Ahh." I screamed. "Louis. Don't do that? What are you doing out here at 12 at midnight?" Louis is the only neighbor I know, mostly because we go to school together.

"Can't sleep so I came out here for fresh air. And what is your excuse?"

"I was...going to Harry's I need to talk to him." 

"How about I give you a lift?"

"That's okay I think I will catch a bus or walk."

"You can't walk you will get kidnapped. And the last bus runs at 11:30 up town. So just take the request I will drop you off and you can get a ride home from Harry."

I really didn't feel like fighting with him he already made living in this neighborhood hard for me. "Ugh fine." I gave in. He walked inside got his car keys and we got in his black buick. 

"So how come you are going to Harry's to talk to him?" Louis said breaking the silence.

"Do you need to know?" 

"Well I am your ride there and I am his best friend. So either way I will find out." I hesitated for a second then finally spoke up.

"I got a text from him last night saying 'But what do I do if she is with my ex all the time?' And I replied huh and he said wrong number sorry Destiny. So I am going over there to figure out what was with that text. It just won't get out of my head!" Louis looked at me as I said what the text said and looked forward smirking and laughing. "What?"

"You are really dumb aren't you?"

"What do you mean?"

He parked the car on the side of the road. "Okay. That song was actually for me. If I tell you what it means you have to pretend like I never told you and see what Harry said."

"Okay." I was a little scared at what Louis was going to tell me.

"Okay. You hang out with Nickie. Nickie is his ex. You hang out with Nickie alot." He said explaining each sentence real slowly. My eyes widened as I registered what he said. "You are the she. He likes the she. He likes you. Harry likes Destiny." 

"I get it Louis. Thank you." I sassed at him. He started driving again. I leaned back in the passenger seat I was taking in everything Louis said. "Oh my Jesus oh Lord and Christ."

"You should feel accomplished Harry hasn't liked a girl since...his parents death."

I just nodded my head that is all I could was nod my head. 

"We're here. Here's my number, text me what he said so I can laugh at his excuse." I took the paper and put it in my pocket and got out of the car. I made it to the door and knocked. 

Harry answered the door. "Come in." He was shirtless with navy blue Calvin Klein boxers. He spotted Louis speeding off in the direction of our neighborhood. "Louis drove you?" 

"Didn't catch the bus in time and he was outside and wouldn't let me walk."

"Oh and it is a good thing to Holmes Chapel isn't the best place to walk at midnight. So what did you need to talk about? You aren't quitting babysitting aren't you?" He asked worried maybe a little to worried. 

"No. God sake's no I wanted to talk about the text you accidentally sent me last night."

"Oh that...th-th-that was nothing. See Liam had my phone last night and and and he was texting Louis because his phone died so yeah." He stuttered a lot and spoke quickly as if he was trying to come up with a excuse quickly. 

"Oh okay well do you know who it was about?"

"Uh nope. Haven't got a clue. But hey I have to go to an interview in the morning at 7 can you stay over so you can watch Amelia in the morning?"

He changed the subject super fast. Almost too fast. "Uh yeah. I will just text my mum." Because I have already told her I was staying at Nickie's all I did was pretend to text her. But I didn't tell Harry that of course. We talked for a little while we soon got tired. I was already in my pajama's so I made my way towards the couch. 

**Harry's POV**

We stayed up for a little bit talking. We soon got tired. She made her way towards the couch and I stopped her, "There is a guest room. You can sleep in there if you like." 

"Thanks." She headed towards the stairs and I showed her to the room. It had white walls and a white greyish carpet floor. "If I don't wake up in the morning just wake me up. I am a light sleeper."

"No problem." And I left, I made my way to my room. I lied about to things the text was actually me talking about Destiny and Nickie and I don't have an interview in the morning I just wanted her to stay tonight. 

"Bub-bub" I heard a sleepy voice at my door.

"Yes sweety."

"Can I sweep wid you."

" 'Course come on." 

She ran up to the bed and snuggled up to me.

"I like Destiny. She pwetty and sweet."

"Where did that come from?"

"She here I heard her talking in the guest room a minute ago."

"Oh."

"She is sweet."

"I know.... I know" She fell asleep to me combing her hair and I soon did that same.
