The Other Girlfriend

Confrontations

Niall’s POV

                When Harry and I got to the room right after the audition, I walked over to the other side of our bathroom and knocked on Liam and Zayn’s door.  A shirtless Zayn answers the door, “Hey, what’s up?”

                “Harry’s having girl problems, we need to talk to him.” I motioned to an awkward Harry who’s twiddling his thumbs.

                “No problem, mate.  Is Louis coming?”

                “He should be here any minute.  Liam, you coming?” I could see Liam behind Zayn and I saw him give a thumbs up.  I stepped away and decided to sit on my bed.  Harry gets comfortable and also sits on his bed.  Harry obviously did not want to do this, but I’m glad he’s not fighting me right now.  I just want to make sure he doesn’t do something ridiculous.  I’m sure he will, but I will try to convince him not to do anything stupid. Liam and Zayn now appear and they sit on our desk chairs.

                “So how did the audition go?” Liam asked us.

                “I think I did good.  I’m not too sure.” Harry said nervously.

                “Nonsense, Harry.  I thought he was good.” I nudged him and he started smiling.  Loud knocks started coming through our hallway so I answered it and Louis was there.  I sat on one part of my bed and I patted the bed.  Louis took the hint and sat by me on my bed.

                “So, Harry likes two different girls.” Louis clapped his hands and started rubbing them on his facial hair. “First off, how did this dilemma start?”

                “Well, the two girls are the ones we meet on the first day.  I dated one when I was that supper we told you about and I dated the other when we went as a group to go dancing yesterday.  The first date with girl A went really well.  We had good conservation and we were definitely mutually attracted to each other.  When she looked me in the eyes, I got butterflies and I felt like I could trust her in a way after that first date.

                “When I went with girl B, it was a lot of fun.  We laughed and goofed off and it was great.  I felt like I had chemistry there too.  I just wanted her as close as possible when we danced.  I’ve never had so much fun in one date than I did with her.  I liked how I felt with her.  I just wish I could please both somehow and keep them both safe.” Harry explained to Louis primarily.  Louis just sat there the whole time and he thought about what he just heard.

                “Before I tell you anything, what is your plan?” Louis asked.

                “I don’t know.  I feel like if I hung out with them more maybe I could distinguish who I like more.  I can’t decide if I should just be a friend to them and friend zone them temporarily or if I should just date both of them,” As soon as Harry said that all of us threw our hands in the air and gasped in shock.  It was one of those moments if we were at a bar, all of us would’ve just spat out our drinks.  Seriously, Harry?  Trying to have two girlfriends at once?  “What?”

                “You can’t be serious with us, date BOTH of them?” Liam emphasized ‘both’ extremely harshly.  “Do you know how much trouble you could get yourself in if you get caught?  When you date girls, they want exclusivity.  I’ve already been told by Sarah, she’ll kick in the balls if I did something like that.”  Now we’re all staring at Liam with a weird expression on our faces. “I’m just saying that to make a point.  If you attempt to date both of those women at the same time, things will get ugly and you will be kicked in the arse.”
