Past, Present, No Future. (Harry Styles)

23. Tag You're It

I sat at the couch scrolling down the posts on my phone turning it off when I got bored, Harry was at work making it the second day in a row he left me alone and I was bored. I wanted to do something!

I heard a knocking at the door, I got up off the couch checking through the peep hole seeing Gen and Mel with two buckets and plastic bags. I opened the door for them letting them inside.

"Ummm, what is this?" I asked them knitting my eyebrows.

"No talking, just fill these balloons with water" Mel said handing me a plastic bag full of water balloons.

"Why?"

"Just fill them up, Harry will be home soon" she smiled going to the sink screwing in the water applier to the faucet.

"Now can you tell me what's going on?" I said with a balloon stuck as the water fell in.

"The boys think we don't know but when Harry's at work Niall and Zayn are picking him up" Mel began.

"So?"

"They have water squirters, buckets of water and anything that has to do with water" Gen finished

"Ohh" I said filling up another balloon, "Wait why?"

"Because they're dumb asses who don't know who they're up against" Gen said.

"But we always lose these water wars" Mel told her.

"Because we were always out numbered, now we have you" she smiled to me.

"What about Beth?" I asked trying not to be rude.

"She never wants to participate in these" Mel explained, "Which is why we're foecing you into this" she joked with a smile.

I smiled back tying the knot on the rubber of the balloon and putting it into the bucket, I grabbed a pink one beginning to fill it up when there was a ringing phone. We all jumped having Gen lunge at the phone.

"It's Harry, he's calling you Vanessa"

"What do we do?" Mel ask jumping with three balloons in her arms.

"I'll answer it" I told them holding my hand out to grab the phone from Gen.

I swiped my finger over the phone holding it up to me ear. "Hello?"

"Hey babe I'm out of work" he answered.

I was not good in these scenarios, "Umm, cool" I looked at Mel and Gen in panic.

"I'll be there in about ten minutes so be careful"u

"Why should I be careful?" I asked placing my hand on my hip.

"Just saying, Mel and Gen are there right?"

"Yeah, why?"

"I suggested you three hang out"

Typical.

"Okay, well I'll be waiting" I tried so hard hanging up the phone. I didn't like lying though I've been finding myself doing it a lot more often.

"What did he say?" Gen asked having a balloon pop in her hands making her squeal.

I giggled, "He said he'll be here in ten minutes, so we need to hurry" I walked over to them helping with the balloons.

When we were done we hauled the buckets outside receiving a lot of strange looks from the neighbors, we hid behind a couple of bushes waiting for the car to come up. A few minutes later we saw Harry's car come up followed my Zayn's, they all came up to the stairs and I see Harry take out his phone.
