Be More Realistic

The Full Truth

I stood there stuck to my spot, until I snapped out of it and pushed him off with all of my might.

"What is wrong with you? Do you not understand the concept of dating, you cheater? You disgust me!"

"I-I, Amanda! Okay, fine. But before I go, can I tell you the full truth? Of everything?"

"Okay, fine. No lies, everything."

"Okay. So, it all started when I was just finishing up a concert. I was coming out of my dressing room after I changed from my sweaty clothes, and this teenage girl ran up to me screaming. She said to me, 'Oh my gosh, Harry! I love you, will

you go out with me?' I stood there, unsure on what to do. Then my manager, Frank, came out of nowhere and said, 'Yes! You are Lilly Shirley, your a model! You and Harry would make a great celebrity couple, the more drama the better.' I stood there like are you serious but she did this fake act and said, 'Sure! Great! This will work out perfectly!' I don't understand why he chose her, she's not even that pretty. Like you, Amanda, are stunning and kind and she's frankly a witch. I don't think she even wants to date me. I actually suspect that Frank and her manager Sydney set us up before I knew. Anyways so they decided we needed to go public. I was so furious that they weren't giving me a choice. I tried to get out of it, but Frank threatened to throw me out of One Direction. I don't even know if he can do that though, but I didn't want to take any chances. My fans would be devastated, and so would the boys. So I went with it, and me and her made sure that the paps were tipped off that we were going to be on that street, and I tried my best to act like I was in love. Apparently, I was very convincing. That day that you invited me over, I was in rehearsal and my phone went off. Frank grabbed it and wrote the text back, and got Lilly. He made her go with me. After we got there, I saw how annoyed you were when you saw her there. I felt so guilty, knowing you just wanted to hang out with me. So, when you were in the kitchen, Lilly says, 'Just to show her were not fake, let's kiss, okay?' I was not understanding what that would prove at all, but she grabbed my face and basically forced her tongue down my throat. It was the worst and most disgusting kiss I have ever experienced. Then you walked in and I actually saw your red eyes and tear marks, and I felt so bad you can't even imagine. These past few days, Liam has been coming home extremely happy, and I have been so jealous. He was the one to save you from that jerk Chad, not me. Your head was in his lap, not my lap. I have missed you so much, even though we hardly know each other whatsoever, I feel like we have known each other for life. We have only hung out a few times, but it has felt like a billion times. Basically, what I am trying to day is, I have slowly developed extreme feelings towards you that I can't stop or control. Please, forgive me and at the very least become my friend again. None of this is my fault, I'm not even actually dating Lilly!" He explained everything and stopped finally, after a long rant, out of breathe. He looked at me with puppy dog eyes, and truth almost etched into his pupils. He wasn't lying.

I stood there, stunned, soaking up every word he just said. Really? He does have feelings for me?

"So, Amanda, you said earlier that you had developed a liking towards me too?" He tried to hide it, but he had a proud look on his face. Like he had won a prize.

I was unsure what to think. He likes me. Me, a regular average not-so-pretty girl who has a job as a makeup artist. Who has been between by her first and only boyfriend. Who is not special at all. "But, Harry, why me?"

"Because you are so kind. You don't try too hard. You have a sense of humor. All of those unmentioned late night texts, that night of truth of dare, that day we met at Starbucks. I always have been actually flirting, not just playing like the other boys. I am 100% serious. Your also incredibly gorgeous, especially your hair. By the way, this looks so much better on you then purple."

I blush. He smiles lightly, showing his dimples. His green eyes a shining, and his perfect face is in a hopeful state. He isn't playing me. Eh, he's worth a shot. I lean forwards and grab his cheeks in my hands, on my tip-toes, and kiss him with all I have. To think, not even ten minutes ago I was disgusted by his sight. Now I just want him here all day. He truly does have an amazing effect on me.

Harry and I are now cuddling on the couch. I don't really feel like this is right though. Over the past few days, I have also developed feelings towards Liam. I feel like I need to wait for Harry to break up with Lilly. He turns the channel to my least favourite gossip channel.

"Lilly Shirley was seen with none other then the one and only Zac Efron, kissing in public. Well, Hally didn't lat very long did it? We are guessing that very soon, Harry Styles and Amanda Seyfield will get together. Will Harry give her one last chance, or will he go back to Amanda? We will keep you updated on What's Current!"

Harry looks at the screen with concentration. He then calls up Lilly, I'm guessing. I can barely hear what she's saying but I sort of understand.

"Lilly! Why did you go out with Zac Efron! I thought you wanted our relationship to last a long time?"

I can just make out what she's saying.

"Harry, I know you like Amanda, so I decided I didn't want to keep you from her. I mean, I'm a model. Tons of hot guys want me, I'm gorgeous."

Ugh, I can't believe I thought she was nice.

"Okay, so were over?"

"Yeah? Are you stupid, of course we are."

"Good. Bye."

I hear Lilly scoff and Harry hangs up the phone.

Harry looks at me smiling. "So! Amanda, will you go out with me?"
