The Arranged Marriage (A One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 8

Melissa's POV

It's been a week and Liam still hasn't talked to Niall or I. Heck, he's hardly come out of his room. He goes to the bathroom, goes back to his room. He gets food, he takes it to his room, he comes back and puts the dishes in the sink, then goes back to his room. Two days it's been like this. I'm about to strangle the man!

I get snapped out of my thoughts by Louis waving his hand in front of my face and saying, "Mel? Come back to earth! The aliens don't need you as much as I do!" My dear little Louis. That boy has problems...

"Louis, the aliens didn't take me. And why do you need me so much?" I question.

"Well, you see. I kinda need you to save me from the monster that's about to come downstairs?" He says, more of a question.

"And why would I need to save you from said monster?" I ask.

Before Louis can say anything someone comes stomping down the stairs yelling, "Louis William Tomlinson! I'm going to kill you!!"

After Louis heard that he sat behind me on the couch, trying to hid from the "monster". The "monster" walked into the living room. I jumped half a mile seeing Harry's face. Note; never anger Harry.

"Louis, why in the hell would you straighten my hair!? And on top of it use hairspray to keep it straight!" Harry yells.

"Louis isn't here right now. Please leave your message with my assistant, Melissa, after the beep. Beeeeeeeeeep." Louis says from behind me. I mentally face palm myself because of Louis stupidity.

"Well, Melissa, please tell Louis that once he's not using you as a human shield, I'm getting him." Harry leaves Louis a "message". What is it with these people? Harry could just as easily move me and attack Louis. Boys...

"I'll let him know." I respond to Harry.

As soon as Harry leaves the room Louis comes out from behind me and says, "Thank you for saving me! Hazza was going to kill me!"

"No problem. Hey, do you know where the rest of them are at? I need to talk to Niall about a few things." I ask.

"Liam is in his room, still; Harry is probably in the shower trying to re-curl his hair; and Zayn and Niall went shopping, they left right after lunch." Louis answers.

"They've been gone for a long time. It's almost dinner time. What could they be buying that takes this long?" I say curiously.

"I don't know. Don't ask me. Why do you keep pestering me? I know nothing!" Louis says nervously.

"Louis, what are you hiding?" I ask.

"Nothing at all. Gotta go check on my goldfish. Bye." He says, then quickly rushes out of the room. He doesn't even have a goldfish. Maybe Liam knows.

I walk upstairs to Liam's room. I get to his room and knock on the door.

"Yes?" He asks.

"Hey, it's Mel. I have a couple of questions." I tell him. Maybe coming to him was a bad idea. I kind of forgot he doesn't like me.

"Come in." He says. I open the door and slowly walk in. He's sitting in his bed, looking at something on his computer.

"What do you need?" He asks, not looking up from his computer.

"I need to ask you a question or two." I inform him.

"Ask away." He says, still not looking up from his computer. Either there's something really interesting on his computer or he really doesn't want to see me right now.
