Niall's POV

I was standing here waiting for this ride to be done and over with when I spotted her. Ellie? I waved and she walked over to me. She gave me a hug and we started talking. It's been forever since we've seen each other. We stood here talking and I didn't pay attention to the ride or anyone else for that matter. She could always get me to smile. Okay, so Ellie and I go way back. We've been friends ever since we were little. We used to spend everyday together and then one day she left. Everyone walked over to me and I introduced them to Ellie. Everyone nodded and then Harry and Hazel took off. I wonder what there problem was. Ellie and I exchanged phone numbers and I told her to call me sometime so we could hang out. Ellie left and the three remaining boys looked at me. They shook their heads and walked away. I chased after them.

"Where's Ariella?" I asked. They all shrugged and kept walking. Was I too busy paying attention to Ellie that I didn't notice Arie leave?

Harry's POV

I'm so mad right now. I don't know why Ariella ran off like that. Well, I think I might know. I think it's because she saw Niall talking to Ellie. Yeah, I can see that being the problem.

Niall, screw you for not knowing what can make Ariella run off like that. You gotta think before you do! It's like a life rule. I sighed angrily. Hazel looked at me with a strange face.

"What?" I said tensely.

"Why are you so angry?" She asked confused.

I verbally rolled my eyes. "What do you think?" I said.

"Woah! Why are you so tense?" she asked holding her hands up in innocence.

I sighed guiltily. "Oh, sorry Hazel!" I sniffled. "It's just, I haven't been this stressed in awhile."

"Harry, it's okay, it's not your fault. And what do you mean in a while?" She asked.

I sighed. "I don't really wanna talk about it." I wiped a tear that secretly escaped my eye.

"Harry, you can tell me anything. I know that I don't know that much about you but I think I do know that you haven't had a worse past then I. So you can tell me, and I can help you. I promise." she told me. I feel a tiny bit better knowing that Hazel cares about my feelings. I nodded.

"You see, ever since Niall asked Arie out, I feel like she doesn't even want to be friends with me because she's too caught up in that stupid leprechaun. Like, he didn't even notice she left. I did. I would be better suited for her. I love her, Hazel. I went and got her name tattooed on my damn chest!" I lifted my shirt up and pointed to the tattoo. She nodded and just kept listening. "Why'd she choose him? If he really cared about her, he'd be looking for her as well. Not just us." I sighed and we looked for Arie.

"I'll have a talk with Arie about all this. I had a feeling something like this would happen." I nodded and we kept walking.

Ariella's POV

Maybe I overreacted. I know Niall is allowed to have girl friends but he never seems that happy when he's around me. I sighed. She was gorgeous and well, I'm not. I'm just plain old Ariella. I sat on a bench a few blocks away from that stupid carnival. Maybe one of the boys will let me sleep in with them tonight, if I go back there. Niall probably was too busy talking to her that he didn't even notice I was gone. I stood up and walked about a mile before I reached my old home. There stood bits and pieces of it. There really was a fire and my parents were dead. I fell to the ground and cried. I cried because I was alone, because of that girl that could make my boyfriend smile without even trying, I cried because my parents were gone. I slept there that night. I slept in Sammy's doghouse. When I awoke the next morning I heard panting beside my head.

"Sammy!" I shouted feeling nothing but happiness. He pounced on my chest. My parents got me Sammy a few years back. He was my best friend. I smiled and cried as I held the last memory of my parents. Hazel! I've gotta let Hazel know that Sammy is okay! I jumped up and Sammy ran into the debris from the fire. He pulled out a duffle bag behind him. I ran over to him and unzipped it. It had his leash, food, a few of his toys and a wad of cash.This must've been from when they went to my grandma's. I reached into the bag and took the money. I attached the leash to his collar and picked up the bag. It's time to take Sammy to see Hazel. We walked down the street back to the boy's flat. I knocked on the door and it opened. An upset looking Hazel stood there, but once she saw it was me her expression changed from sad, to mad, to happy. She noticed Sammy and crouched down, letting him lick her face. She looked up at me with the biggest and brightest smile and started to cry. The boys must've heard her cries because they rushed to her side. I didn't see a head full of blonde hair in the group of boys and I sighed.

"He's sleeping." Liam said. "He was out a good chunk of the night looking for you." I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah, okay, Liam. It was his fault I left anyway." I said spitefully and looked at the ground. We all walked inside together. "Can we keep him, guys?" I asked no boy in particular. They all nodded and Hazel and I started to jump around while we squealed. We hugged each of the boys and I stayed in Harry's arms a little longer.

"I saw the tattoo, Harry. There was no hiding it from me." I whispered in his ear. He laughed and I pulled away.

"I'm glad you're back, Ariella. Now don't go running off again! If you have a problem you tell one of us and we'll take care of it!" He scolded me playfully. I giggled and he smiled. Harry picked me up over his shoulder and spun around the room. I screamed and laughed. Zayn took a picture and screamed.

"This is so going on twitter." Zayn yelled. My phone buzzed in my back pocket and Harry put me down. I checked twitter and Harry looked over my shoulder.

@Zayn_Malik1D: D'awhh, look at Harry and Arie goofing off. #Hariella @HarryStyles @AriellaGMil

We laughed at how retarded we looked. "Harry, we need to go shopping." Harry nodded and with that we left the flat.

Hazellynn's POV

Harry and Arie left and soon after they did Niall came into the living room. He yawned and stretched. "Was that Arie I heard giggling?" We all nodded and he smiled. "Where is she?" He fixed his hair and looked around.

"She went out with Harry." Louis spoke up and Niall's face fell.

"Oh. Okay. Why didn't anyone wake me up when she came?" He asked angrily.

"We thought you'd like your sleep. Since you were out late last night." Liam said calmly. Niall looked at us all blankly. Niall was mad that Arie was with Harry and it was obvious. Niall left us alone in the living room and we sat there silently. After about two hours Harry and Arie came back to the flat smiling and laughing. I take it they had a good day. Harry took the bags from Arie and went to his room. She jumped over the couch and landed on top of me.

"Hey best friend." She said as she batted her eyelashes. I rolled my eyes and laughed. She wanted something.

"Yes, Ariella?" I said trying not to laugh.

"Can you bake cupcakes, please? Hazza and I went out and bought the stuff." She said as she looked at Harry.

"Sure. You two win." They both jumped up and started giggling like little kids. They were an interesting pair. Everything was fine until Niall came into the living room.
