The Band I Thought I Knew // Liam Payne {Book 1}

Chapter 8

(Kira's POV)

After I watched him level through the window of my living room. I like Harry, I really do, he is such a great guy but I don't like him in that way. He is a very sweet guy, not only to me but to so many other in his life. But I don't have romantic feelings toward him, I cant explain why but he just isn't who I could picture myself with. He is more of a big brother type to me if anything. He could be my brother, telling me to eat my vegetables even if im twenty one or to be careful who I go out with because I don't owe anyone anything and I don't have to do anything I don't want to do. I feel like Harry could be that person to me.

"Whatcha doin' girly" I jump at the words but I recognize the voice.

"I was watching someone leave"

"Were they here to see you?"

"Uh, yeah"

"Oh, okay then, so what are you doing tonight?"

"I am going out with Jake tonight,"

"Oh is that tonight?"

"Yeah, I was out with someone else yesterday and I'm going out tomorrow"

"Jeez, where are you getting all these dates"

"I don't know these guys asked me I didn't want to say no,"

"It's not hard to though"

"I know that but they seemed nice enough," I shrug, "im not dating losers"

"So who do you think will be the one you choose"

"I don't know ive only been out with one, but I have a pretty good feeling he is the one"

"Well good luck"

"Thanks" She nods her head before leaving the room again. mY phone buzzes and I lift it up to look at it.

*Can't wait for tomorrow see you then ;) - L*

*Me neither! See you then!*

I turn the phone off then is staarts buzzing and ringing. An unknown number shows up on my phone, it's local but I don't recognize it. I tap the answer button before holding it up to my ear.

"Hello"

"Hey Kira! It's Jake!

"Oh hi, how are you?"

"I'm good, listen instead of seven tonight I was thinking maybe we could go out for a lunch date instead," He says "I got called in for a shift tonight at three to eleven so I won't be able to go out so that's why I wanted to take you out in about fifteen minutes"

"Uh, yeah I guess that'll be okay." I don't know why but I sort of feel disappointed that it won't be tonight. It's an uneasy feeling to have. But I go upstairs and look at myself in the mirror. I do t do anything to fix my hair, only because it's not messed up.

I check the time on my phone then go downstairs and sit on the couch. I wonder if Harry told Liam what happened between us. I wonder if he told him that I'm going out with another guy. I honestly don't know if either situation will work out. Liam is famous after all but I don't want to be just another girl. And Jake is a sweet kids but what if it doesn't work out with him? What if I don't like him, or what if he isn't who he appears to be?

What if he's a complete asshole and I didn't get that impression because that's how he draws girls in? He uses the sweetness and mask he can put on to get the girl then draw her in completely and change.
