Can You Feel The Love Tonight

Chapter Seven

Chapter Seven:

We entered the dark room where a worker at Lazer Quest informed us with rules, the point of the game and so on. She led us on to another room where we all put on Lazer tagging gear. The vest was the target on each person and the gun shot uthe lazers at other peoples vests. If our vests got hit by a lazer, they shut off for ten seconds and then started back up again.

Niall, Calum, Luke, Zayn, and I were on a team together while Ashton, Harry, Michael and Louis were on a team. We had invited Liam to come join us but he claimed he was caught up in some family issue. We were all worried for him but didn't press him for details and he didn't offer any.

"Ready?" Luke asked, nudging me. I nodded and the other boys replied with an enthusiastic 'yeah's'.

The buzzer sounded and we all raced off into separate parts of the arena. Niall, Luke, and I had agreed on a place to 'guard' while Calum and Zayn chased the boys from the other team towards us so we could shoot them.

The arena was very dark with slashes of glowing paint here and there across the walls. Mirrors were scattered throughout the place, and you never really knew where you were in this place.

When we raced off to our places, Niall grabbed my hand and starting leading me towards where we had agreed to stand.

"It's a bit frightening" I said quietly to Niall and he reassuringly squeezed my hand.

"Haven't you been here before?" Niall replied as we ducked under a dark archway.

"Once or twice.." I said.

We were nearing the spot where we had to stand when out of the corner of my eye, I thought I had seen something so I whipped around and wildly shot. I heard a vest power down, but when I looked around I only saw my reflection in a mirror.

I looked down and saw my vest was off.

"Mags, did you just shoot yourself?" Niall asked with a hilarious smile across his face.

"Uhhh" I stared as my vest started up again, "Maybe..."

"It's okay babe" Niall said laughing. I blushed and Niall pulled me over to where we were supposed to stand. Niall stood at the top and I was around the bottom of the ramp.

I turned around and Niall gave me a resurring smile that made my stomach burst with butterflies.

I heard running feet and Louis practically ran over me, I shot at him and thankfully, his vest powered down before he could shoot me.

"Shit, Mags" Louis said pouting.

"Im sorry but I really want to win and not even your adorable face will keep me from winning" I said and he sprinted off in another direction before anyone could shoot him again.

There was commotion at the top of the ramp behind a wall and someone called out Nialls' name. He gave me a quick look before he went off to help one of our team mates. Before I could register a presence behind me, a hand tugged me over to a dark alcove I had not noticed before. The person shot my vest and it powered down.

"Harry!" I shouted, angry he had dragged me off. But I wasn't mad for long, his adorable puppy dog face erased my frown."Harry Styles, did you just kidnap me?" I said, teasing.

"Maybe," He said with a smirk. My vest powered up again but before I could shoot Harry, he shot me again.

"Hey!" I shouted,"No fair" I pouted.

"I kidnapped you, and for me to let you go, you'll have to beg for mercy" He said slyly with a smirk.

"C'mon Harry just let me go" I whined.
