Valerie's POV

It's been a week and I can't get that mystery kisser from the party out of my head. It's killing me! I need to find him. Niall and I have become quite close. He introduced me to some of his friends and I quite like them. I am quite close with Lauren, Liam's girlfriend, Vanessa, Isha, Zayn's girlfriend, and Emily and Niki. They are really nice. I feel so accepted, so many things have changed lately. I also have an observation. I have a feeling Niall has a crush on Vanessa. They are always looking at each other and I find it hard to suppress an aw. Harry keeps looking at me weirdly. It will be so awkward tonight when we have to work on our song. It's really hard to act normal. He has hated me forever but now he is actually being nice. It's weird for me. I have to take time to get used to it. 

"Val?" I heard someone say. I looked up, tearing myself from my thoughts. It was Lauren. "Oh, hey." I smiled. She shook her head laughing. "Come on, lets go." She took my hand and we headed to lunch. We sat down just as Louis came barging through the doors searching around. His eyes landed on us and he smiled his big cheeky smile. Lauren and I looked at each other at the same time. "Uh oh!" we both giggled. Louis rushed over. "Hey guys! I have a joke!!" He exclaimed. I nodded for him to continue. "Okay, Knock knock?" He said. "Who's there?" We asked. He smiled. "Anna." "Anna who?" we asked. "Anna one Anna two!" He cracked up laughing. Lauren and I looked at each other, not quite grasping the joke. The rest of the group came over and Louis told them the joke. They all cracked up laughing. After everyone settled down, we ate our lunch. Simultaneously, Lauren and I both started laughing at the same time. "Whats so funny?!" Louis asked. We took a few deep breaths before continuing. "We....just....got....the.....joke!" We said between laughs. Niall shook his head chuckling. "You know, you guys must be related. Your both the exact same!" We rolled our eyes. 

Harry's POV

I walked into the cafeteria to grab some lunch. I saw Val and the rest of the group laughing about something. I chuckled and went to join them. Val went quiet as soon as I sat down. Weird. I decided to make some conversation. "Um, so Valerie, are we still on for practice tonight?" I asked. She nodded. "Yep, if that's OK with you." I nodded "Yep its fine." She changed the subject almost instantly. "So guys, how about everyone comes to my house tonight for a sleep over?' She asked. We all cheered and nodded. The bell rang and we all scurried to our allocated classrooms. Val looked deep in thought. I wonder what she was thinking.

Val's POV

I was waiting for everyone to come. Harry had come earlier to practice our song and he decided to stay and help with setting up. It was pretty awkward. We kept trying to make conversation but it wasn't really working. I sighed and continued working on what I was doing. I went in to help Harry set up. He was making cupcakes. "Need any help?" I asked he nodded. "Yep, could you whisk the mixture with the electric mixer?" He said. I nodded and walked over. I pressed the on button and it splattered everywhere....including on Harry! "Oh my God I'm so sorry!" I apologised, walking up to him and attempting to get mixture out of his curls. I couldn't help but notice how close we were, literally inches apart. His eyes flickered down to my lips and then back to my eyes. I pulled away, a blush creeping to my cheeks. "It's OK. It gives me reason to do this." He said. I was about to ask what he was talking about when he scooped up a whole heap of mixture and wiped it on my face. Oh it's on! I grabbed some flour and threw it on him. We ended up having a food fight. I must admit it was fun. I turned around to search for something to throw at him when i felt two strong arms pick me up. "Harry!! put me down!!" I squealed laughing. He chuckled. "No can do love." He said. I liked how he called me love. Wait, what am I doing?! I pinched him and he dropped me down. "Ow! What was that for?" he pouted. I turned and walked towards the shower. I went over what just happened. It meant nothing right? Just friends. Friends? I could get used to that.

Harry's POV

She walked away. She just walked away! She aggravates me but it makes me like her more. She's feisty. I was about to jump in the shower when the doorbell rang. "I'll get it!" Val yelled from downstairs. I hopped into the shower and attempted to get the mixture out of my hair. I dried it off with a towel and walked downstairs to where everyone was watching a movie. I sat down next to Val. "What are we watching?" I asked. She shivered. "Paranormal Activity 3" She whimpered. I saw she was scared. Do I cuddle her? No, I should just leave it. I laid my eyes on the movie and stayed there until something cuddled into my side. I saw it was Val. She had her face in my shirt. I held back a chuckle. I pulled her closer until the movie finished. The credits rolled down the screen and we turned the lights on. "That was awesome!" Louis yelled. God, that boy was just like a child. I mentally chuckled. Val had moved away from me and Louis was now suggesting games.

Val's POV

"Oh! I know! Lets play 10 minutes in heaven!" He said. "Except...no making out allowed!" He squealed. I agreed to this. I didn't need that happening in my house. Ewe. "Okay, so we are gonna stick all the boys in separate rooms, and the girls are gonna walk into random ones and have to kiss whoever they get. But you can't say your names. It has to be a secret." Louis grinned mischievously. This boy was evil. All the boys split up and when we heard all the doors close we began walking towards them. "Good luck!" Vanessa said, before we were each engulfed in darkness. "Hello?" I asked. "Hey." Someone said. Who is it?! I want to know. "So, I guess we have to kiss, um, whoever you are." He said in a husky voice. I nodded and then realised he couldn't see me. "Um, yeah." I said awkwardly. I felt him come closer until his lips softly grazed mine. I closed the distance between us. His kiss was sweet and passionate. Wait! I know this feeling. I pulled away. "Your the guy from the party!" I said. He moved closer. "I knew it was you...I mean, I don't know your name but as soon as we kissed I knew it." He said, fumbling for words. I kissed him back passionately. I never wanted it to end. "Tell me your name." I said, He chuckled. "Nope, sorry I can't. Game rules remember." He chuckled. I sighed and kissed him once more before exiting the room. Oh my god! Mr. Mysterious is part of our group! 

I need to get this straight! Someone, in our group, is my Mr. Mysterious. This is insane. I look at everyone suspiciously, it seems as everyone is doing the same. I sigh. I need to find him. Knowing he is so close kills me. I calm myself down and join in the rest of the night. By midnight we are all knocked out on the floor. It was tiring but the most fun I've had in a while. I have decided on a new mission. Finding Mr. Mysterious.

Hey guys um, I know I technically already did one of those dark room kiss scenes but I figured it would make it more intriguing if it happened while she was in that group of friends. It takes her one step closer to finding her Mr. Mysterious. Hope you enjoyed!! Comment! Vote! Fan! :) x
