Chapter 8

As soon as I realize what me and Harry are doing, I pull away.

"What's wrong?" He frowns.

I shake my head, "Harry, you have a girlfriend! We can't do this.."

He takes my hands in his big ones, "Scarlett, I need to confess something."

"What is it?"

He sighs, "I don't.. love Macie, okay? I don't. I like you, I really do. That's why I asked Louis if he thought you liked me, that's why I asked you and when you denied it, I was just embarrassed because I was going to tell you that I like you." He looks at me with a shy smile and I can't help but smile at his words.

"So then why are you going out with Macie?" I cross my arms. He sighs.

"I'm only going out with her because I thought it would distract me from liking you but uh.. it didn't," He blushes.

I smile, "So now what?"

"Now I guess you're my girlfriend." He smirks and leans down to kiss me

"No." I shove him back.

"What?" He looks confused.

"You still have a girlfriend, Harry!" I remind him.

"Oh. Yeah." He rolls his eyes, "But I can still kiss you." He shrugs, but I push him back once more.

"Harry, no, I'm not kissing you while you still have a girlfriend, and I am not your girlfriend either!" I say trying to hide my cheesy smile that he caused by trying to kiss me.

He groans, "Fine, but I will break up with her later on." He assure me.

"When is later?" I chew on my bottom lip.

"Maybe today. Do you think I should call her or meet her up in person?" He asks.

I shrug, "You should call her. You're far away and it would suck to go all the way there, then back just to break up with her.." I tell him. I also really don't want him to go because who knows what kind of shit Macie will say to him to be with her.

"Okay, I think I'll give her a ring today." He nods.

"Okay. Well I am going to take a shower right now." I announce and get up from his bed.

"Take one here." He whines and pulls me closer to him by my waist. "With me." He smirks even though I know he is lying, but I can't help the heat that rises to my cheeks.

"No, you're disgusting, we aren't even dating yet!" I laugh and pull away from his tight grip around me.

"Yet?" He teases, "Who says we will?" He laughs.

"Fine. We won't." I shrug and try to hide my smile.

"I'm kidding Scar, I want to. As soon as I break up with her." He promises and kisses the tip of my nose. I laugh and nod,

"Okay," I agree, "But I really have to go shower so I'll see you later I guess?" I say as I'm headed out the door.

He pouts, but doesn't argue, "Fine." He smiles and I return it before heading back to my own room, way more calm than I was before I went in to Harry's.

I can not believe that just happened in a matter of minutes. We kissed, and confessed our feelings for each other, and I have to be honest, I never thought that would happen. Ever. It is a good feeling though, it really is. All this time we have both been trying to push our feelings for each other away, but that wasn't a good thing to do. But it still feels slightly foreign, I mean, me and Harry? How do we act now? We aren't exactly boyfriend and girlfriend now, but we aren't exactly friends either. I can not wait for Harry to break it off with Macie, I know it sounds bitchy, but it's true. I do not want to date Harry if he is still with her; I'd feel used. I know he wouldn't be using me, but there is no point in him even staying in that 'relationship' with her while dating me, and there is no way in hell that I would allow that.

As soon as I am done showering and dressing, I hear Niall knock on my door.

"Scarlett, open your door!" He groans.

I roll my eyes at how impatient he is and open my door to let him in, "What do you want?" I ask.

He shrugs, "I just wanted to know how it went with you and Harry?" He asks.

I smile, "Oh, uh, it went well I think. We're talking again." I send him another smile.

I don't want to tell him about me and Harry. I know we aren't dating but there is sure something to tell and we most likely will end up going out as soon as he breaks up with Macie. I just want to tell them when both me and Harry are.. sure of what we are. Now just isn't the time.

"That's good! Um are you and him..?" He raises an eyebrow.

"What..? Oh! No, we um, no." I feel my cheeks heat up and he burst into laughter.

"You like him though, don't you?"

I shrug, "So? Can we talk about something else?" I ask, not wanting to get into that. He laughs once more and nods,

"Sure. You excited for the concert tonight?" He changes the subject.

"I am actually," I smile, "Are you?"

"You know I always am!" He smiles, I roll my eyes.

"Of course, you are." I chuckle.

"Hell yeah. I'm gonna go get ready," He gets up and heads out.

"Okay then, bye!" I say and he leaves with one last wave.

I decide to get up and head to Harry's room

I know it's only been a couple hours but I want to know if he has broken it off with Macie yet. I highly doubt it but I'm hoping he somehow did.

I open Harry's door and see coming out of the bathroom soaking wet with nothing but a towel around his waist. I shriek and quickly turn around,

"Sorry, Harry, I should have knocked!" I admit and hear him laugh.

"It's fine, Scar. I will tell you when to turn around." He assures me and I nod.

"Okay."

"Turn around."

I do as told, "You change fast." I laugh and plop down next to him on the bed.

"I know. Why did you come in here?" He asks.

I shrug, "I just, uh, I wanted to see if you were ready." I smile.

He rolls his eyes, "Are you sure you didn't come in here to ask me about Macie?" He raises an eyebrow and smirks.

"Shut up." I shove him.

He laughs and catches my arm, "Sorry, babe. I haven't broken up with Macie yet. I will later." He smiles, showing me his adorable dimples.

"Good." I smile, even though I am slightly disappointed he is still going out with her.

"I'm really bored." He informs me.

"Then do something. I'm going to go find Liam." I stand up.

"Why?" He asks.

"I don't know, I kind of want to go shopping with him. It's still early, our concert doesn't start until seven, it's still two-forty." I remind him.

"You don't want to go shopping with me?" He requests.

"Well you can come with me and Liam?" I suggest, "He promised he'd come with me. Plus you never asked." I say.

He shrugs, "Let's just go tomorrow. You and me."

"Okay then. Bye." I smile.

"Wait," He tugs my arm, moving me closer to him.

"What?" 

"If I can't kiss you yet, can I at least have a hug?" He smiles.

"Harry-,"

"A friendly hug," He interrupts, "Like we hug all the time." He smirks. I roll my eyes and let him embrace me in to a long, warm hug.

"I'm going with Liam now, bye." I smile and he kisses my cheek. I roll my eyes once more before heading over to Liam's room.
