For the next few days, Harry could not lay his hands off of me. I felt like I was living in a fantasy but part of me wanted more. More sex wouldn't hurt, but I was thinking more of romance. I constantly think of the day where we literally talked for hours. That's the Harry I like.

"Hey babe." I smile, Harry's never called me that before. I turn around to kiss him on his cheek but I quickly pull away.

"Woah, sorry Liam..I thought you were someone else."

He giggles, "What are you doing later?"

"Probably sleeping...eating..you know." He laughs again.

"You should go to Sam's party tonight. It'll be fun."

"Ehh..I don't know..I'm not a big partier.."

 "Come on, pleaseeee!" He gave me puppy eyes and I couldn't resist.

"Alright, I'll definitely consider." I smile. I really like Liam. He's really sweet and is actually very cute. I wonder if Harry is going tonight? I should ask him if he wants to go with me. I look around for his bushy hair and spot him. I pad over towards him.

"Oh hey Kat." A smile appears on his face. I love when he really smiles because his dimples show and they're adorable.

"Are we doing anything- you, are you doing anything tonight?" I laugh to try and hide my embarrassment. It just slipped out. He gave me a smirk which made me feel a little better.

"I was thinking about stopping by Sam's tonight."

"Oh, that's fun."

"You should come." I smile and nod in agreement. Not too long ago he was ashamed to ever be seen with me. Now he's taking me to a party with all his friends, outing us as a couple. Were we a couple? I think we are. Does he?

-------

I get home and it's already 3:56. I wonder what time the party was? And was Harry taking me? I should probably figure these things out before it gets too late. I should see if Maddie wants to go, or if she's already going.

*Hey, what time are you picking me up to go to the party tonight?*

*Actually, I have to go early to help set up. Can you meet me there?*

I was sort of upset that we weren't going together. I really hope Maddie's going because I know no one else. I should see if she can take me. Just as I was about to call her, she walks in the door.

"Hey Kat!" She smiles. She seems in a really good mood today. 

"Hey Maddie. Are you doing anything tonight? I was wondering if you wanted to go to a party-"

"If it's a party, I'm in. Where at?"

"Sam's."

"I didn't think you two were friends?"

"We're not, Harry actually invited me."

"Well, Niall and I would love to go!"

We got ready together and left around 9:45. We weren't really sure when it started but we didn't want to get there too early. According to Maddie, good parties didn't start till after 9.

We get there and there must be like 30 people at the most. I thought this was suppose to be a huge party but instead we just crashed a social gathering.

"Who. The Hell. Invited. You."

Everyone stopped what they're doing and looked at us. I didn't know what to do, I'm not good with a lot of people. Maddie and I are stumbling to say something, anything.

"I did." Harry spoke up. Lou looks at him, looks at me, then back at him.

 "Why would you invite her?" She gives me a disgusted look. Harry never takes his eyes off of me.

"She's cool." is all he said. I'm kind of upset he didn't say that were dating, but I kind of got my hopes up. I should be happy he at least spoke up.

Lou looks infuriated and walks away, Sam following. Maddie and I walk over to the group of people. She finds Niall right away and I pad over towards Harry. I expected a hug from him but he asked me if I wanted a dream instead. I followed him inside and he got me a drink. We started talking but he got distracted by his friend and completely blew me off. This party sucks already and I've been here for 10 minutes.

I start wandering around the house looking for a room where I can be alone. Sam's house is actually really big and really nice. I finally find a room where there was only a few people and plop down in a seat. A few minutes later, Liam sits down next to me.

"Kat, i think I'm gonna have to tell you to tone it down. You're being way too crazy at this party." He gives me a smile.

"Sorry, I'm just having too much fun." I say as sarcastically as possible.

"Yeah, I'm not having any fun either."

"What about Sam? I thought you two were dating?"

"Yeah, it's our 1 year anniversary and she's acting all weird and stuff."

"Oh, well sorry, I-" I was interrupted by Sam coming over to us and literally started shoving her tongue down his throat. I just got up and left because I didn't wanna deal with her after having 4 cups of beer. I walked back into the living room where everyone was. I wanted to find Maddie but I knew I probably wouldn't. Wow, I really need to get more friends. 

I walked out onto the patio hoping I'd see Harry. He invited me here and I've barely seen him. I really wanted to leave but Maddie drove me here. I really hope I find her soon. This night was awful.

"Aw, where's Harry? He ditch ya?" Ugh, I don't really wanna talk to Lou right now. 

"No, I just went to get more beer."

"It's not good to lie sweetie. I don't even know why you came. He obviously doesn't want you here."

"Yes he does, he wanted me to come."

"Then why is he all over that girl?" She points behind me to the hot tub area and just smiles. I didn't want to turn around and face the reality of what I thought might be. I turned around and he looked at my straight in the eyes. Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face and my feet were moving without me even realizing. 

"Kat! Kat, wait! Dammit, Kat!"

I run inside furiously looking for Maddie. I can't find her anywhere. I pump into Liam and he notices me crying.

"Woah, Kat, are you okay? What happened?" I could feel the concern in his voice but I had no time to explain.

"Grab your keys." I told him and started pulling him and running as I saw Harry from the corner of my eyes.

We got to his car and sat there for a few minutes. I don't think Harry followed us out. Liam looks at me but doesn't ask what's wrong and I thank him mentally for it.

"Do you want to go directly home?"

"No, I got some time." I smile.

"Great." he returns the smile.
