Chapter 10

Vallory POV

The car ride was full of banter. Liam was teasing Niall about staying the night at my house and asked if he got some. I just sunk in my seat and flipped my hood up, hoping to hide the blush on my cheeks. I couldn't get out of the car fast enough when we reached the house. It was big. My jaw dropped ten stories. "You guys live here?" I asked in disbelief. "No, we live here." Liam said throwing an arm around my shoulders. I followed Paul into the house and gasped. It was huge. The living room was as big as my house. I couldn't wait to see my room. "Liam, show her to her room please?" Paul asked. "Sure thing. Follow me?" I nodded and followed Liam up the steps. "We had major argument with Zayn mostly about where your room would be, but we decided on giving you the room with the balcony and the bathroom." Liam said, opening the doors to my new room. He was right. I had a king sized bed, already made up, double doors that I assumed to lead to the balcony, and a bathroom. On my walls, hung One Direction posters. Mostly of Harry. Raising an eyebrow at Liam, he chuckled. "The posters were Harry's idea. You can take them down if you like." He said looking around the room. "I will be taking them down. It'll be creepy to undress and see them staring at me." I said, shivering. He just chuckled and started removing the posters. "So, do you like it?" Liam asked. "I do. It's really nice. Thank you guys so much." I said, embracing him with a hug. Just then, Niall walked in with a soda in his hand. "While you and Nialler here were having fun last night, we unpacked for you. Don't worry, we didnt sniff your underwear. We were men about it." He said, holding his head up high. Niall came over to me and put his arm around my shoulder. "We did have fun last night, didnt we, Val?" Niall asked with a wink. "Oh, god. Shut up! Liam doesn't need to know!" I said chuckling. Liam's eyes went wide. "You guys, are dating? And did it last night? Vallory's right! I don't need to know." He said shaking his head. "Nah. We're not dating and we didnt do it last night. I promise." Niall said, reassuring Liam. "Sure. Yeah, okay." Liam said with a wink. "I'm taking a shower, so get out. Both of you." I said, pushing both of the boys out of my room. "Come downstairs when your ready, and we'll all go out to eat. Okay?" Liam asked with a smile. "Okay, yeah. Sure." I said and shut the door. I walked into the bathroom and began stripping. I turned the water on and turned on my music. I never though of myself as being a good singer, but I sing anyways. I jumped in the shower, and saw that all my shampoos and other essentials were there. Smiling, I lathered my hair with the apple scented shampoo and sung along to the "Top 40". I shaved my legs, and applied conditioner then got out. My mirror was all steemed up, so I wiped it with my hand. The sight in the mirror frightened me. My make up was smeared and my face was bruised. I knew I had to use a lot of make up to fix this. Sighing, I plugged in my hair dryer and got dressed. I went back to the bathroom to finish my hair. After blow drying my hair, I straightened it and put my bangs up in a quiff. Satisfied on how it looks, I worked on my make up. I sang along to the songs that played as I did my make-up. Giving myself a satisfied smile, I put my make up back in my bag, turned my music off and left the room. When I got downstairs, the boys were waiting on me. Niall was wearing a snap-back and a red polo, Louis was wearing a striped shirt with red pants, Zayn was wearing his usual varsity jacket, Liam was wearing his buttoned up shirt, and Harry was in a white t-shirt and very skinny black jeans. They smiled at me, and I smiled back. I walked over to Niall and took his hat, placing it on my head. "How do I look?" I asked giving the duck face and putting a peace sign up. I dropped the face and chuckled. "Not bad actually." Niall said with a thumbs up. I took it off and put it back on Niall's head. "Keep it. I've got thirty more." He said, placing it back on my head. I shrugged and accepted it. "So, where we going to eat?" I asked, making conversation. "Nandos." Liam said casually. "I love Nandos!" I said jumping up. "She's just like Niall." Zayn whispered to Louis, who nodded. I shook my head. "You know I can hear you guys, right? Lets go! I'm hungry." I said making my way towards the door. They followed, and opened the door to the car. "Nandos here we come!" Niall shouted, earning a round of cheers from everyone.
