Save You Tonight- A Harry Styles Love Story

Chapter Five

It's been a week since our first day going to the beach/boardwalk, and Tessa and I have really grown close to the boys. I feel much more comfortable around them, and we always seem to have a good time. Mostly we go to the beach or boardwalk, but some nights we stay home and watch TV or play board games while my mother and Mrs. Tomlinson cook dinner for everyone. I, especially, got much closer with Harry. But tonight, we all decided we would go to the movies. Tessa and I were in our rooms, getting ready. I got dressed in a pair of darkwash cuffed jeans, and a white tank top. Over it was a white laced tank, with thick straps. Then, I added my navy blue cardigan, and my white lacy TOMs. My long, thick wavy hair was now straightened, and I had small pearl earrings in my ears. I gave my self a look over in the mirror, and then I heard the bathroom door open, and turned. There stood Tessa, in a pair of coral-colored jeans, with a black, loose shirt that had a cheetah on the the front. Her hair was curled perfectly, and on her feet were white wedges. She looked stunning in such a simple outfit. 

"You look hott," She stated, making me chuckle.

"You look great as well," I told her truthfully. Then, I grabbed my wristlet which contained my Iphone and some lip gloss. The makeup I had on was minimal. I had light foundation, with some mascara, and a touch of lip gloss. Together we walked downstairs, to see Louis ontop of Harry. Harry was curled up in a ball in the corner of the couch, and Louis was ontop of him, attacking him in some way.

"What are you doing?" Tessa asked them, and Louis immediately stopped tickling Harry, I think that's what he was doing.. I hope so, at least. Harry used this to his advantage of Lou not paying attention, and pushed him off. Both the guys turned to us, and Louis smiled. Then, he stood up and walked over to me, slinging an arm around my shoulder.

"Well don't you girls look great on this fine evening!" He exclaimed, and i just laughed, and squirmed out from under his arm, and went and sat next to Harry. I felt a shift in the couch, and then a whisper in my ear.

"You do look good, you know." Chills were sent down my spine, and I turned and smiled at Harry, then leaned in, whispering in his ear,"You don't look that bad yourself."

"SECRETS AREN'T NICE," Louis screamed, and I grimaced.

"We aren't telling secrets," Harry retorted, and Tessa rolled her eyes playfully. Then, before they could respond, Niall, Zayn, and Liam came downstairs, ready to go.

We were in the car, driving to the movies, when Zayn suddenly spoke up saying, "We should see a horror film." Everyone agreed excitedly, while I just groaned. Harry, who I was sitting next to, wrapped his arm around my shoulder.

"It's okay babe, I'll protect you," He said, and I blushed. Niall turned to us two, and he raised his eyebrows up and down suggestively at Harry. Harry just chuckled, while I rolled my eyes.

"Flirt alert," Tessa muttered, and I chuckled a little.

"Thank you, Hazza, but hopefully I'll be fine," I said, taking a deep breath. Scary movies definitely weren't my thing. The taxi driver pulled up to the movie theater, and stopped the car. Liam handed the driver some money, and then we all left the large taxi car. We entered the movie theater, and payed for the tickets of the movie, that everyone decided on, but me, of course. We bought some popcorn and drinks, and Niall of course got some candy, and then we went into the theater room. The order of the seating was Niall, Liam, Zayn, Tessa, Me, Harry, and then Louis. It was basically vacant in there, except for a few other people in the very back, and one or two in the front, which was odd, since there so much room in the middle, you wouldn't think people would sit in the very front. We all whispered quietly until the movie started, and thats when the lights went dim. I gulped, and sunk back into my seat.

The movie was absolutely terrifying, and it was only the middle of it. I was trying so hard not to make a fool of my self by screaming, so I quickly ducked my head down, laying near Harry's shoulder. I heard his body shift, and his arm was around me comfortingly. I heard his light chuckle, and I really wanted to glare at him, but I kept my head down, looking away. 

Finally, the movie was over, and I stood out of my seat. "Oh my god. Yes. Finally," I breathed. Harry stood up and chuckled, smirking at me. The lights came back on, and I looked over at Zayn and Tessa. Zayn was holding her hand, and I grinned at the two. Tessa looked up at me, noticing my grin, and then let go of Zayn's hand and blushed. I raised my eyebrows at her, and she just shrugged, not saying anything.

When we got home, I went straight to Tessa and I's room, and she followed.

"What was going on in the movie theater?" I asked her.

"What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean, Tess. You and Zayn. HOLDING HANDS," I inquired.

"Oh right. I don't know. He just grabbed my hand, and we stayed holding hands I guess," She explained. I folding my arms across my chest.

"Just grabs your hand, huh?" I giggled, and she nodded. "I think he likes you." She came up and flicked me in the forehead.

"I don't think so," She stated rolled her eyes.

"Well I think so. But, do you like him?" I asked her, and she nodded.

"If he liked me, he would have asked me on a date already," She muttered. "Ever since the night we went to get ice cream from that bet we made, I liked him. He's just so cute and funnny and, ugh. It's so easy talking to him, and I don't know why he hasn't asked me yet. I guess he's just not interested in me," she said, shrugging.

"I still think he likes you. Just give it time," I told her. She just shook her head, and started walking downstairs. I followed her, and then we both plopped down onto the couch. Louis was sitting at the other end, and he turned and smirked at me.

"You were such a scardy-cat at the movie," He told me. 

"Not uh," I stated stubbornly, and he laughed loudly.

"Emmy, you were almost like, sitting on Harry by the end of the movie," He snickered, and I frowned.

"Whatever," I muttered. Next, Harry came down the steps, yawning. He was wearing a white shirt and sweatpants, and he came and lay down next to me, resting his head on my lap, and his feet on louis'.

"Uhm, mate, what are you doing?" Louis asked. "get your feet off of me."

"No," Harry said, and Louis huffed.  I looked down at Harry, and he smiled up at me. I smiled slightly back at him. Tessa, who was next to me, stood up, and turned facing us.

"I'm going in the kitchen to get something to eat, anyone want anything?" Tessa asked. Louis nodded, and picked Harry's feet off of him, and stood up, and then dropped Harry's leg back onto the couch. 

"I'm coming with you. Who knows what there is to eat in that kitchen," Louis said, and then skipped into the kitchen. Tessa made a weird look at the idiotic Louis, and then walked into the kitchen. After a few moments,  I heard Louis and Tessa's muffled voices, and then cabinets and the fridge opening. I couldn't really understand what they were saying, so I turned my attention back to Harry, who still had his head on my lap.

"You know, Emma," He started saying.

"Yes?" I asked him curiously.

"Would you uhm, you know, go to dinner with me tomorrow?" Harry asked, his face turning serious. I blushed lightly, not expecting this. Harry wanted to go to dinner, with me? Just us too. I nodded my head.

"Yes, I'll go to dinner with you."

Harry grinned cheekily up at me, and I giggled quietly, and then started playing with his soft, messy curls.
