She's Not Afraid

CHAPTER TWENTY: SPACEBOUND

CHAPTER TWENTY: SPACEBOUND

"Now let's talk about the concept of the U.K. version of my music video." Marshall stated.

"You two are criminals who found each other and are like star-crossed lovers, get what I mean?" My manager asked.

"Yes, sir!" Harry answers enthusiastically.

I rolled my eyes at him.

"The first scene is in the bedroom with you guys being half-naked." Marshall handed us the scripts.

"Isn't that a bit way too mature?" I commented.

"Nah, not really. You're just going to grope each other. The kissing comes in a bit later..." He explains.

I turned to look at Harry who seems to be super excited about the kiss.

Is it way too late to back down now?

"Why'd you pick him again?" I pointed at the curly-haired boy right beside me.

"Because he has the most fans in One Direction? And because Cowell suggested him..."

"Okay. What happens when I back down from this?" Maybe I'm not really fit for the role.

"Cher, you're already twenty so don't be such a pussy and why do you have so many questions, girl?" I could tell that I was about to burst Marshall's bubble so I decided to just shut up for now.

"Can we go to the setting now?" Harry suggested.

I flashed him my annoyed look which he responds with a grin.

*AT THE SETTING OF THE MUSIC VIDEO*

"So, are you ready for this or what?" Harry asked confidently.

"I just want to go home..." I wasn't really in the mood today.

Or maybe I just don't like the guy that much...

"Get ready, you two!" Marshall commanded through the megaphone.

Harry then threw his shirt off on the floor and my eyes can't help but wander around his tattoos.

"What? Do you need some help with your clothes?" He offered.

"Um, no." I brusquely removed my shirt as well which revealed my black-laced bra, suggested by Marshall.

I heard Harry whistle as he fixated his eyes on my upper body.

Thank God I didn't have to remove my jeans as well because that would be totally... uncomfortable... on my part.

I positioned myself on the bed and within seconds, Harry was already on top of me.

"AND ACTION!" Marshall directed.

"Wait, what are we supposed to do again?" I whispered to Styles.

"Just place your hands around my waist, will you?" He ordered and I complied.

Louis and I didn't really practice groping so I have no idea where this is going...

'We touch, I feel the rush, we clutch it isn't much but it's enough to make me wonder what's in store for us, it's lust...'

As the song played, I felt Harry's hands tighten around my waist and then it went down slowly on my upper thighs which felt... awkward.

*AT THE DINER SETTING*

"Okay, when the chorus plays that's when you start kissing madly like there's no tomorrow, on cue!"

There were a couple of staff on the set dressed as regular costumers which sort of added pressure on me since I don't really like kissing in public.

This reminds me of Zayn's publicity stunt in front of all the reporters when he announced our 'fake' relationship.

He even said that there were supposedly more random kisses to come if only our contract didn't end up being terminated because of that 'party' incident.

'I'm a spacebound rocketship and your heart's to the moon...'

Harry caught me offguard when he smacked his lips right into mine with a lot of force... and passion.

'And I'm aiming right at you, right at you...'

His kiss was different from Zayn's and Louis' alright.

I felt the intensity of his need and craving for me and it was the strangest feeling yet...

...it's as if he's conveying his deepest emotions through the kiss.

His tongue hungrily demanded for entrance and when I did allow him access, I had a hard time putting up with him because I couldn't match up his strong emotions.

"AND CUT!" I pulled back when I heard this but then he arched forward like it wasn't enough or something.

He then stared deeply into my eyes with a look of longing before saying,

"Can we do it all over again? I felt like it wasn't right..." He asked for Marshall's permission.

"Okay." What the? I thought that was perfect already...

'I'm a spacebound rocketship...'

His lips found its way into mine once again but this time it was more of a soft and gentle kiss which surprised me.

"Sorry, can we replay the chorus again? I started off late..." This time, he was the first one who backed away.

Is he doing the mistakes on purpose?!

We had like ten takes before Marshall called the shots and thought that that was enough already.

I mean, seriously, my head's spinning from all of Harry's different kisses.
