Chapter 16

CATHERINE’S POV

            The guys all got off the tour bus and went inside of the hotel. We just got off of the bus, and it didn’t hit me until after that we should have just flown. Everyone was exhausted and wanted to sleep in a real bed, but the guys weren’t allowed to go to sleep right away at the hotel. Karen told them that they had to all go on Twitter and follow people or tweet. I could tell Harry was way too exhausted, but he dealt with it. While the guys were occupied, I’d have a chance to talk to Paige about things.

            We got into our room, more like suite, and unpacked silently. Jane was exhausted, so she wasn’t saying much of anything. She and Paige were up late the night before, and we were all a little edgy from being with each other for sixteen hours on a bus. Jane changed and went to bed, so Paige and I stayed out in the area with the sofas and television.

            “Okay, so we obviously need to talk,” I said as we sat down on the couch, both with coffee that the hotel provided.

            “Yeah,” she said sharply.

            “What’s going on? We had a great time shopping yesterday, and then when I wanted to spend time with Harry, something changed,” I said treading lightly and not wanting to start drama.

            “I just feel that you’re always with him,” she said, avoiding eye contact with me.

            “Paige, we’re all here together on this tour. He’s my boyfriend now and so I’m going to spend time with him when I have an opportunity.”

            “I understand that, but I just don’t want you to get too carried away. Like, that girl asked you for a picture in Victoria’s Secret. You’re only dating Harry. You didn’t accomplish anything. Why does she need a picture with you?” she said with venom lacing her words.

            “Okay, look. I want to have a good rest of the week. It’s only Wednesday and we have three days left. Let’s make it through these three, and then when we get home Harry won’t be with me anymore.”

            “He may not be with you, but you’ll always talk about him and text him and call him.”

            “Paige, he’s my boyfriend. What do you want me to do? Break up with him? It’s only been like three days.”

            “I’m not saying break up with him! I’m saying to dial down the affection because it’s annoying as fuck. Like you’re already spending the night with him!” she said, her facing turning red because of her anger. That set me off.

            “Paige, I didn’t see him all day, and he missed me! Is it such a crime that I wanted to go spend the night with him?! We didn’t do anything!” I said raising my voice. “I don’t think it’s very fair for you to come at me like this, out of nowhere!”

            “It’s not out of nowhere! You’re always like this when it comes to guys! You always move so fast and leave Jane and me out cold because you’re always off doing shit with the next guy!”
