Curls and Caramel

Chapter 13

Harry wanted me to meet his friends seeing is how I know about them. I agreed to go when I was done for the day. I had on a pink floral dress with some black boots. My hair was extra curly and I actually felt cute even though Harry tells me that I'm already cute and adorable. 

I'm sitting in his friend's car again and Harry tells me he's going to buy a car of his own. the drive doesn't take long. It's a very quiet and cute neighborhood. We drive buy a two story brick house and Harry stops the car. 

"Here we are." He says looking at the house with his hands still on the steering wheel.

"All of you guys live here?" I question knowing the answer is yes. Harry nods his head and gets out to open my door for me. I thank him and we walk up the nice brick walkway to the door. He unlocks the door and I step into a surprisingly clean house.

He leads me to a brightly lit living room where I see four boys on the couch watching a movie on the TV screen. They don't notice us until Harry clears his throat and their heads turn to face us. they are all very handsome in my opinion.

"Lads this is Isabelle." I shyly wave to them and they all welcome me with a friendly smile. One of them jumps up to hug me. I'm surprised but return the hug.

"Alright Louis, I think that's enough for a welcome." Harry states.Louis lets go of me with a smile still on his face. His hair is quiffed up and it looks nice on him.

"Sorry. It's just that I finally met the girl which Harry has been talking non-stop about." I feel my cheeks get hot by his comment. How much has he said about me?

"Nice to meet you too Louis." I'm introduced by three other boys named Liam, Niall, and Zayn.  All of them have quiffs except Harry who has a bandana on his head.

My mom would be glad that I'm finally meeting new people. I'm not much of a people person. My mom would persuade me to talk to others so I wouldn't feel so alone. I'm starting to believe that I've sort of out grew that stage.

"So Isabelle,"Liam starts off, "Tell us about yourself." Everybody's eyes are on me waiting for my response. I'm not used to the attention so I shuffle back and forth on my feet.

"Um, well I like to be called Izzy. I'm almost finished with high school and I guess you can say I'm a book worm." I say. Harry moves to a nearby chair. He gestures to me to sit on his lap. I oblige not wanting to feel awkward by standing all by myself. He holds me by the waist and pulls me closer to him.

"What movie are you guys watching?" I ask not recognizing what's playing in front of me. 

"A horror movie called The Conjuring." Niall answers for me taking a sip of his soda.

"Do you like horror movies Izzy?" Zayn asks popping a piece of popcorn in his mouth. I shake my head no. I'm actually terrified of horror movies. I always get nightmares when I watch them.

"No not really I..." I'm interrupted by the sound of a doorbell.

~Harry ~

As Izzy was answering Zayn's question there's a ringing at the door.

"Oh, I hope you didn't mind that I brought over a friend." Liam says getting up to the door. I shake my head. Liam comes back in with his friend and Izzy suddenly tenses up when she sees him. I look back at him and he has a smirk on his face. Does she know him from somewhere and if so, when?

"Eric you know Izzy right?" Liam says introducing them even though I don't think they needed an introduction

"Oh I know her alright." He winks at her and I'm rethinking my knowledge of him. I feel Izzy tense up as he's staring at her. I grab her hand and squeeze it reassuringly.

"Um can I talk you you for a second?" Izzy says to Eric. I grab her by the arm and look at her. She gives me a nod and I let go of her arm. I really don't want her to be alone with that guy. for some reason I just don't trust him.

It's been over ten minuets since she walked into the hallway to talk to Eric. I about to get up and check on her when they come in. There's a frown on her face. What did he do to her?

"Is everything alright?" I ask right as she sits on the arm of the chair. She nods in response but I know something is up and I'm going to find out what it is. She sits back on my lap and we continue watching the movie. I take some glances at Eric he looks over to us once in a while. What's this dude's problem?

Izzy covers her eyes at some scary parts. I just chuckle at her earning a light on my arm and I laugh. Eric is watching us the whole time. I swear what is with him looking at me and my girlfriend?

(Sorry this was so short i didn't have much to say for this chapter. Don't worry Eric will be coming up more often)
