Something's Changed (One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter 23

Harry's POV

I was quite drunk compared to earlier on in the evening but I wasn't too drunk to realise what I was doing and saying. I strolled up to Deepika's side whilst she was stood with Perrie and I draped my arm over her shoulder.

"Hazza's getting really close to Deepika, ooh I can feel the chemistry building," Perrie joked before joyfully elbowing my side.

"The chemistry would really build to the maximum if Miss Deepika agreed to a dance," I suggested just as the song changed to Rude Boy by Rihanna.

"One dance," Deepika replied so I dragged her to the dance floor.

We began to dance uncomfortably at first but then I really started getting into it so I spun Deepika around; when she had her back opposite to my chest, I put my arms around her waist and pulled her back so that there was no gap left between our bodies.

She ground against me to the beat of the music and I did not let go of the contact throughout the entire song.
When the song ended, I let go of Deepika and she walked us over to the side of the dance floor so that the others could continue dancing.

"You're a good dancer," I said into her ear so he could hear me over the music.

"I have to be, I dance all the time," Deepika said back, into my ear, in reply.

"Strip clubs and dollar bills, I still got more money," Niall loudly sang and yelled as he walked past Deepika and I, aiming this right at Deepika.

"Wanna dance babe?" Niall asked, put an arm around Deepika's waist.

"If you want," she replied before excusing herself and following Niall onto the dance floor.

Deepika's POV

Mike WILL MADE IT's 23 was playing when Niall and I started dancing and we were getting into it.

"I would've twerked but I didn't want to risk tearing my dress," I yelled so that Niall could hear when we had done dancing. 

"I should've busted out my rear too," he yelled back, making us both laugh at each other.

All of the others, except Harry, gathered around where Niall was stood with me and then when Harry finally came over, he was singing over the music.

"Private show with the music blasting, he like to call me Peaches when we get this nasty. Red wine drip filth talk that trash, chauffeur eavesdropping trying not to crash," Harry sang, quoting Partition by Beyonce which was directed at me regarding my profession.

"Why the hell have you two been singing about strip clubs and strippers?" Zayn asked Niall and Harry.

"We found something that we really like and these songs remind us of this particular thing," Harry said, looking directly at me.

His intense gaze penetrating to my inner guilt of not being able to tell the others of my job as a stripper. I broke eye contact with Harry but I could still feel his eyes on me.

"I'll be right back," Liam said as he carried Lucas away with himself.

Seconds later Liam spoke over the microphone to make an announcement, "gentlemen please may I request that you grab the person on your right and head over to the dance floor because we are about to get this party started. Thank you."

I knew exactly who's right I was on and I couldn't help but smile at the reason why Liam set this dance up; it was so that Louis and I could get some time to ourselves privately but in public.

"This means that Louis & Deepika are a pair as well as Zayn & Perrie, Harry & Jade, Niall & Ryan, Amelia & Jesy and Lucas with me; Leigh-Anne, you're gonna have to join a pair because we have odd numbers," Liam explained.
