Ellie
"Do you drink?" Eleanor asked me after we had introduced ourselves.
"Yes." We laughed and she helped me grab some beers and things out of the fridge. Sadie kind of kept to Liam and didn't say much. I could hear the guys yelling in the living room and walked in to see Harry standing up and pointing at Niall, yelling.
They all laughed and Eleanor and I placed the food and drinks on the table. Harry grabbed two beers and opened them, handing one to me.
I clicked play on The avengers once everyone got their seats. Niall sat beside Louis and Eleanor on the smaller couch and Liam and Sadie sat on the love seat.
I was leaning on the arm of the other couch with my legs resting in Harry's lap. He rested his hand on my shin and I looked over and smiled at him. He smiled back and put his feet up on the coffee table.
It was quiet for the first ten minutes of the movie until we all started talking. I paused the movie and sat up, crossing my legs. "Are you guys together now?" Eleanor asked and Louis grinned.
"Yes," I started and they cheered. I smiled and shrugged my shoulders.
It got quiet and no one said anything until Niall spoke up. "It's weird without Zayn here." Harry put his head down and I put my hand on his leg.
"Don't be like that! It's his loss that he wanted to leave, now let's party!" I told them standing up. Eleanor stood up with me and grabbed Louis' hand. I kneeled down in front of Harry but he didn't look up.
I saw Eleanor try to find the music channel and everyone was standing except for Harry. They were all doing their own thing.
I put my hand on Harry's cheek and he moved his eyes away from me. "Look at me," he moved his eyes to mine and I smiled at him. "Harry, let's dance," I tried to pull on his arm but he wouldn't budge.
I kissed him and he kissed back until I moved away. "I want to dance with you Harry." I told him and he shook his head.
"Fine, I'll dance with Niall." I stuck my tongue out at him standing up. He watched me walk over to Niall and furrowed his eyebrows. I took the remote from Eleanor and hit Top 100.
Star boy came on and I grabbed Niall's hands. I swayed my hips with the music and Niall spun me around. Everyone else was dancing with their girlfriends except for Harry.
I saw him watching me and I winked at him. I soon somehow switched to dancing with Eleanor and looked over but Harry wasn't there. I was about to turn around to look for him when I felt two large hands land on my waist.
I continued to move my hips and arms until Harry spun me around. I knew I was on my way to being drunk when the room started spinning.
Harry leaned down to whisper in my ear and I pulled him closer. "You look so good right now." I could feel his breath on my neck before he planted a small kiss there.
"I'm sweating, drunk and my makeup is probably everywhere." I reminded him. He shook his head while I opened another beer and took a sip.
"Do you work tomorrow?" Harry asked me, still dancing.
"Yes, I do." I started to lean to the side but Harry caught me and I grinned.
Harry
Ellie's words were slurred and it was getting close to midnight. "What time do you work?" She was jumping on the couch and I grabbed her waist and lowered her to the ground.
"Ten to five," she ran up to Eleanor and I laughed when they started dancing. Liam and Sadie were dancing and Louis and I were standing next to each other watching Ellie and Eleanor and Niall was pigging out on popcorn by himself.
"I should probably take her to bed." I told Louis and he waved me off.
"She's having fun." He reminded me.
"Yeah but she works tomorrow." I worried about her continuously.
"She'll be fine. She's quite the drinker isn't she?" He pointed out and I nodded.
"She does like her booze." Eleanor came to grab Louis' hand and Ellie grabbed mine.
"You should go to bed princess," I kissed her forehead and she smiled, leaning into me.
"I'm fine!" She reminded me and started to dance.
"I know you're fine," she stuck out her bottom lip and I continued, "but you work tomorrow." She sighed and nodded her head.
"Yeah, you're right." She pulled me closer to her by the collar of my shirt and I immediately put my hands on her back as a reflex. "Will you come upstairs with me?" She smiled like a child and I nodded my head.
"Of course, let's clean up first." She left a sloppy kiss on my cheek and went to clean up empty bottles.
"Okay, Ellie is going to bed, you guys can crash here if you want or you can go, either way." I walked into the kitchen and put the bowls in the sink.
"Harry, I think we're just gonna stay." Louis said for everyone and I gave a thumbs up. Ellie walked them upstairs and each couple and then Niall into a guest bedroom.
Ellie grabbed clothes out of her drawers and rushed into the bathroom. I heard her push open the toilet bowl and I quickly walked into the bathroom.
I tied her hair back and sat behind her. My legs straddled her waist and I leaned against the bathtub behind me. I rubbed her back and she leaned back into me. She used mouthwash to clean her mouth and came back to sit in front of me after flushing the toilet.
"I'm sorry, you can go to bed." She told me standing back up.
"No, it's okay." I would rather sit in here and make sure she's okay than lay in bed alone.
"Please, I just need a second." She held her head and I nodded. I kissed her temple after brushing my teeth and leaving the bathroom.
I leaned against the bathroom door and slid down it. I rested my head on my knees and waited patiently for Ellie to open the door.
Xoxo
