CRASH (Harry Styles and Demi Lovato)

Chapter 6 ∽ Doubts and Confusion

DEMI'S POV

I made my way in to the steep, dark hallway, where the restrooms were hidden. I just had to leave there, I couldn't handle being with him a minute longer. I didn't know what was going on with me, I have been on edge the whole night, starting when Harry had arrived.

From the moment I spotted him outside of the club waiting for me, the way he looked in his black button up and how his curly hair was molded perfectly into a quiff, the way he smiled at me when I spoke to him, how he volunteered to give me a body shot just so I wouldn't do it with a stranger, and the way his mouth felt while grazing the top of my body...

He was just so fucking nice and I just couldn't get all of it out of my head. I even tried to be audacious and cool around him, but fuck no, he just had to be more audacious and cooler than me. And the worse part was, he wasn't even trying and it just suited him.

I entered the ladies' room located on the right side of the hallway and walked through the door. There was no one to be found in the tiled room with every cubicle empty, so I closed the door behind me and lock it, pulling my dress over my head.

I padded my way across the floor to the sink and moved to grab a hand full of tissue paper from the dispenser and moistened it with water. I dabbed it on my clammy skin to remove the stickiness of the liquor... and removing Harry's trail on my body.

Okay, that's enough! I shook all the remaining thoughts of Harry out of my head and pulled my dress back on again. Enough of Harry, he shouldn't be my thoughts anyways, we're just friends, nothing more and nothing less. And besides, it was just a fucking body shot for God's sake, no big deal! I just needed to introduce him to Nick then I could keep my distance from him, I'll have Chelsea keep him company... Yeah, Chelsea would surely enjoy that.

I gave myself a well needed mental pat on the back before unlocking the door and stepping back to the club. I exited the dark hallway and found my way to the location of the bar. As I entered the main club, I heard screams and glass shattering from a distance. What is happening?

I hurriedly strode to the direction of the sound, it was coming from the bar. A number of curious onlookers were already gathering around, making it impossible for me to see what was going on. I elbowed my way through the throng of spectators, drawing more closer to the scene.

I went wide-eyed as I took in what is happening in front of me. Nick was being pinned to the counter by another person, his cheek looked red and swollen, and glass was shattered all around.

"Don't play dumb with me, " the other person snarled. That voice, that physique, even he had his back on me I still recognized it all... What the fuck was going on here? He raised his fist in the air and brought it down on Nick's face,

"Harry!" I yelled at him before he can even land his fist on Nick. He snapped his head to mey direction and his angry expression softened as he catched my eyes. Without thinking twice, I stomped closer to him and shoved him off of Nick with all the force I can muster. He stumbled slightly but quickly recovered his balance.

"What the fuck are you doing?!" I snapped at him, inquisitively desperate to hear the answer.

He shook his head hastily, "You don't understand. That fucking prick is the guy who Autumn cheated on me with and I just saw him flirting with another girl."

What the hell is he saying? "No, fuck no. You're the one who doesn't understand! This 'fucking prick' that you're referring to is my boyfriend."

His eyebrows furrowed as I said the words, "But, but..."

"Yeah, HE'S MY BOYFRIEND. And I don't know what the hell went into your fucked up mind to think that Nick's the guy who Autumn cheated on you with, but I'm a hundred percent sure that that isn't true. Nick and Autumn doesn't even talk to each other, let alone have a fucking affair with each other!" I stated, making sure it was clear to him.
