"So, what time should everyone be arriving?" Louis asked while glancing over in my direction.

"I told everyone the food should be done by 6:30, so probably 7ish," I responded, unable to tear my gaze from the beautiful creature standing in front of me.

"Ah, what a bummer. I was hoping we'd all be together by 5ish so we'd have all night," he slouched on the bar counter in front of me. "I just really can't wait to see El, it seems like it's been forever since we've last seen each other." That's when I felt the pang in my chest. I knew I didn't really have much of a chance with him, but seeing him so infatuated with El truly made me want to jump off a cliff.

"Well I'm sure she's ecstatic to see you too, mate," I plastered a fake smile on my face. I looked up at him, and he really looked like a five year old at a candy shop, his eyes gleaming and cheeks on fire.

"I sure hope you're right Haz." That name sent the butterflies afloat in my stomach; no, they were more like killer wasps swarming in their nest. "I just, we've been together for a long while, and I know we don't see each other often, so I just want every time to be perfect." Wonderful.

I could feel the tears gathering in the corners of my eyes, and knew I had to get away quickly. God dammit, why did I have to be so emotional when it came to him. Because you love him. I was such a girl, and it was quite pathetic actually. "Hey, um I'm going to go, uh, wash up and yeah," my voice broke towards the end, and I failed to cover it up with a cough.

"Yeah, sure. Is everything all right Harry?" he looked over at me, worry taking over his features. I quickly nodded and ran up to the en suite in my room. I looked at my reflection in the mirror for a moment before letting all my tears escape. God, why am I such a ninny? I mean, it's not like I actually expected to have a chance with him. Well, at first I did, but he just seems so convinced that he's in love with El. I guess one look at me and you'd know we weren't meant to be. I mean it's so obvious the fans even say so. It's just the simple fact that Louis wasn't gay.

I hurried and washed my face to make sure the red blotches were less noticeable. As I made my way towards the stairs, I heard a bunch of noise, so I guess everyone had arrived. I instantly hear the irritating squeal that always seems to escape Eleanor's lips.

"Ohmigawd Loubear I missed you so much," she shouted as she pulled him into a tight embrace along with a, much to my disgust, heated kiss. I tore my eyes away from them as I finished my walk down. I looked at everyone else, and it seemed like the night may have had a little hope. I got along with almost all of them: Liam, Dani, Niall, and Zayn. It sounds cruel, but it would've been a spectacular night had Eleanor not been there.

I cleared my throat to break up the love fest after I greeted all the others. "Oh heya Harry, how've things been. I love the new place! I was so excited when you guys decided to move in to separate places. That sounds rude, but it's just so amazing having our own place together and." God she talked too much.

"Yeah foods ready," I interrupted and walked to the kitchen as fast as I could to get away from her rambling. I mean, I didn't hate the girl, but she could be annoying. It may have also been do to the fact that she holds the only things I've truly loved, but who knows.

Yeah I stopped at a weird spot, but I'm going to sleep.
