I Hate Him (One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter Two

Chapter Two:

*peeks around corner*

Oh, heeeey. I didn't see you there.

VAS HAPPENIN?

Don't feel like writing an author's note in the beginning.

Enjoy!

"I--uh, I'm... Visiting a relative!"

I resist the urge to send a dramatic eye-roll her way. "Oh, really," I retort sarcastically.

"Yes!" She insists, wearing a panic-stricken expression. "Jessie, this is my... um... cousin, Jasmine. Jasmine, this is Jessie. She's my best friend."

Jasmine barely had a chance to confusedly wave at me when suddenly, as if in sync with my suspicions, a tall, curly-haired boy stepped around the corner. "Cara, what are you doing? We have to go..." he trails off as his gaze landed on me.

My eyes widen and I feel myself go numb. My heart practically jumped out of my chest. I pinch my arm from behind my back to make sure I wasn't dreaming. This can't be reality. It's too good to be reality.

Was this a prank? Was he really just a robot? Were there cameras filming my reaction? Would I be broadcasted on live tv?

The sight in front of me knocks the air out of me. I slip into a state of shock mixed with a coma because I cannot move.

Like, at all.

None of my body parts are functioning.

In an instant, I forgot how to breathe.

What is oxygen?

Go ahead and take a wild guess at who was standing there in all of his glory.

Drumroll, please...

Harry freaking Styles.

"H-Harry Styles?" I stutter quietly, my words almost coming out a whisper.

He eyes me worriedly. "Um, yes?"

My jaw drops and I look to Cara for an explanation. She walks to my side, sighing, and grabs my upper arm, pulling me along with her. "I have a lot to tell you, Jay."

I stare at Harry the whole way along. "You can start right now," I snap at her.

Well, attempt to snap at her. It came out more as an airy, breathless statement.

All thanks to the hunk of a man walking right next to me.

Those eyes...

And curls...

Snap out of it, Jess! You hate them, remember?

Oh, right.

She pulls me into a room and, no exaggeration, I almost have a cardiac arrest.

If it was possible for my jaw to hit the ground like in cartoons, that's exactly what it did. My eyes practically pop out of my skull, as disgusting as that sounds.

Not literally.

And I thought I was done with surprises for the day.

What I saw in front of me were the 3 people in this world who I knew better than anyone, excluding the other two band members.

Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Zayn Malik.

I just about died.

Louis was sitting on the bed trying to tie his tie, and Zayn was bent over in front of the short mirror, applying gel to his already-perfected quiff. Niall was texting someone while inhaling a bag of Doritos.
