Being Simon Cowell's Niece

Stomach Tied In Knots

Kellin shrugged at Demi's comment and shook it off. "Damn, I thought earlier he was just cranky. Does he have a man period or something?" Kellin asked. Demi and I shook our heads, trying to conceal the laughter that was threatening to burst from our lips. Louis on a man period?Hahaha.

However, I guess Demi was right. Louis was showing all signs of jealousy. But knowing Demi, she wasn't done with her tricks yet.

"Demi, maybe we should-" I started, but she cut me off by acting like she was zipping her lips with her fingers. Kellin was still in the room, and I was guessing that she didn't want him to know about the plan still. Here we go, more trouble. Hopefully nothing too bad will happen. "What is with you two girls today?" Kellin asked, chuckling. "Nothing." I said, smiling. "Let's go to Simon's office to work, it'll be much more quiet." I suggested. They both nodded their head in agreement. I picked up my journal and walked to Simon's office and turned on the light. I loved his office. It was mainly made up of black, gray, and white furniture. It was also very quiet and a great place to escape, especially for writing songs. Demi and Kellin followed in pursuit.

"So any ideas?" Kellin asked, sitting down in Simon's desk chair. Demi and I sat on the couch that was against the wall, across fro the desk. "I don't know. My stomach's tied in knots right now." I said. The four of us stared at the floor, thinking of anything. It was really hard when it came to writing a song. Especially when you had a lot on your mind, like the plan. "Actually, that's got a nice ring to it." Kellin said.

"What does?" I asked.

"My stomach's tied in knots." He said.

Hmm....

"Lilly, just tell him the plan. I know that you can't think straight, it's bothering you." Demi said, sighing.

"Umm...what plan?" Kellin asked.

Demi and I explained.

"And that's why you still need to play along and be flirty." Demi said, finishing.

Kellin laughed, "You guys, I am not flirty."

Demi and I exchanged glances.

"Okay, maybe I can be." He confessed.

Demi and I giggled. "So you're afraid to talk to him about it?" Kellin asked, scratching the back of his neck. I nodded my head.

"OH, I GOT IT!" Demi shouted. Kellin and I continued looking at her, waiting for her to tell us what was on her mind. "What are you two staring at? Oh....sorry, I feel so dumb. Okay what if the lyrics are like 'Oh my stomach's tied in knots, I'm afraid to talk to him tonight.'?" Demi said.

It sounded pretty decent. "How about 'Oh my stomach's tied in knots, I'm afraid of what I'll find if you wanna talk tonight.'?" I asked.

Kellin smiled widely. "Sounds great!"

The three of us continued writing until the doorbell rang. I got up to go get it, since it was probably the pizza. I opened the door and sure enough, it was the pizza guy. I grabbed money from my pocket and gave it to him while he gave me the pizza. "Thanks!" I said as he walked away. I walked to the kitchen and set the five boxes of pizza down on the counter.

"YOU GUYS, THE PIZZA IS HERE!" I yelled through out the whole house. I could hear footsteps running. Niall and Liam ran in first, followed by Zayn, Harry, and Louis, and then Demi and Kellin. "Go ahead and grab a slice!" I said, grabbing a piece of cheese pizza and a plate and walked over to the table to sit down.

Eventually, everyone was sitting down at one table. We had to drag more chairs over to fit all eight of us. Demi, Kellin and I sat on one side while Niall, Zayn, and Louis sat on the opposite and Harry and Zayn sat on the ends. When everyone was almost done eating, Kellin said my name. The whole table quieted down. "You've got a little pizza sauce on your cheek." Kellin said, wiping it off and laughing. I decided to play along, giggling. "Thanks Kellin." I said.

"THAT'S IT!" Louis said,"I AM SICK AND TIRED OF YOU MR.KELLIN QUINN FANCY PANTS. YOU ARE STEALING HER AWAY FROM ME, DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND THAT? OKAY? I LIKE YOU LILLY." Louis screamed. everyone sat there in shock with their eyes wide open, surprised at the sudden outburst.

Niall cleared his throat,"Well I guess since we're making confessions, I have one. Demi, I think I like you. Actually no, I know I like you." he said.
