A Summer's Job (1D)

8:"I Like You"

Christina's POV

I woke up, very surprised that I am not at all drowsy after not having much sleep. I was actually anxious to get out of bed, I didn't want to be in it any longer. Mainly because I have a lot of important things to do today.

I entered my bathroom, took a quick shower, and dried off. I put on black skinny jeans, a sparkly purple tank top with an open black sweater over it, and my black ballet flats. I threw my long blonde hair in a ponytail.

I ran downstairs, to see if anyone was making breakfast so I don't have to cook. Damn, no one here. I got out the pancake mix and started cooking, my stomach growling every second. C'mon, stupid pancakes, cook, I'm hungry!

Once they were fully done, I placed a few on a plate, grabbed a glass of orange juice, and sat at the table and chowed down. While I was eating, or demolishing, my pancakes, I heard footsteps coming into the kitchen.

It was Harry. And once he saw me, he smiled, like nothing was wrong and he's not a filthy liar. But I know what's up, however, he's not getting the clue. "Hello, love."

I looked him in the eye and said, "Hello Harry, lying to any more people?"

"What are you talking about?" he seemed confused.

"So Niall has a girlfriend, huh?" I raised my eyebrow.

"Uh..yeah. He does." he said nervously.

"I know you're full crap," I rolled my eyes, "so why did you lie to me?"

He sighed, looking ashamed of himself. "I'm sorry, but I didn't think I would have had a chance with you, so you know in the spur of the moment..."

"You said Niall has a girlfriend so you could date me." I finished for him.

"Yeah, you seemed to really like him, and I thought I would never have a chance. But..." his voice trailed off.

"But...?" I question.

"But, I like you. I really like." he finished.

He likes me? Harry actually likes me, and he sounds nervous about it? I'm surprised he didn't hit on me, or try to seduce me. No, he said he liked me! Harry Styles, the womanizer I once thought he was, likes me! I just can't believe my own ears, this is so new.

"You like me?" I mentally face palm. He just said it twice, and I said it in my head a million times.

He nodded. "And I really want to take you on a date. Err, would you like to go?"

How do I respond? I like Niall, but I don't want to hurt Harry's feelings. And if I do date him, I'll just be leading him on, and I don't want to be a bad person. Should I just be honest? Or...

Okay, this may be a crazy and stupid idea, but maybe I can make Niall jealous. I'll date Harry, and maybe he can get pissed off. I know it's horrible to use someone, but I need to do this.

"Yeah, I still want to go." I reply, and he smiled.

I notice that Liam was standing behind Harry the whole time, glaring at me. He heard our conversation?! Of course he has, he's standing right there.

He grabs my arm, out of Harry's sight. "What the hell are you doing?! I thought you liked Niall?"

"I don't even have a chance with Niall." I lie. Well, it's not necessarily a lie, I don't think Niall likes me one bit.

"Whatever." he scoffs and enters the kitchen.

I entered my office, followed by the boys. They take a seat, waiting for me to tell them the day's objective. "Alright boys, we are going to start on your new album, Midnight Memories."
