Chapter 8-

"Harry I'm really sorry for taking so long!" I said whilst we sat in his car.

"I told you to be ready by six!" He said gritting his teeth.

"I know and I'm sorry I wasn't."

"Now were an hour late! Some mistake I made when I actually let you sign the contract!"

Could he actually be any more horrible to me?

"Thanks for that Harry!"

"Your welcome. Now put your seatbelt on."

I looked at him in disgust as I pulled the seatbelt over me and clipped it in.

"Good girl." He smirked.

"Piss off Harry." I said. He laughed and began to drive off.

We arrived at an Indian restaurant and parked the car.

"Before you see the paps, stay close to me and don't answer anything they ask you, just ignore them." Harry said. As we walked towards the doors Harry put his arm around me and pulled me in close. There were loads of people with cameras taking pictures of us and shouting out questions. We just walked straight past them and through the doors.

We walked in and Harry looked around for the rest of the boys.

"There's Liam." I said as I saw Liam standing up and waving.

"Oh yeah." He said as he grabbed my hand and we walked towards the table.

"And what time do you call this?!" Liam joked as we stood by the table where Liam, Zayn, Louis and their girlfriends were sitting.

"Sorry mate we got stuck in some traffic." Harry said as he sat down and patted the seat next to him for me to sit.

"That's always your excuse mate!" Zayn laughed.

After that we said hello to everyone and I introduced myself to everybody.

"Niall's just popped to the toilet he should be back by now." Louis said.

Niall...

Suddenly I felt my heart drop! I completely forgot about Niall! How was I going to explain this too him?!

"Harry! Where have ya been?!" I heard an Irish voice call. I looked down to the ground hoping Niall wouldn't see me.

"More like where have you been? You've been in the toilet for about twenty minutes!" Harry laughed. He stood up and greeted Niall with a hug.

"Niall, this is my girlfriend-"

"Clara?!" Niall interrupted looking and sounding really shocked as I looked at him.

"I'm sorry" I mouthed. Harry looked at me then back at Niall.

"You two know each other?" Liam asked raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah we do." I said trying not to look at him.

"Babe you never said you knew Niall" Harry said.

"It must have slipped my mind." I half smiled.

"Oh so did it slip your mind to tell me you were dating Harry?" Niall asked in a sarcastic tone of voice.

"Niall..."

"Forget it, shall we order?" He said as he smiled at everyone else. They were all looking at each other in confusion.

"Yeah..." Said Louis sounding unsure.

We all ordered our food and spoke about the film premier next week and the bands new tour they had coming up but then the conversation turned to relationships.

"So Clara how long have you and harry been together now?" Perrie asked.

"Two months." Harry lied.

"Two months?!" Niall said looking at me shocked. I tried to look away.

"Oh really? Harry you never said you were seeing anyone." Said Liam.

"I know I wanted to wait a while before I told you all."

"Aww, well you too look perfect together!" Sophia, Liam's girlfriend said before taking a sip of her wine.

"Don't I know it!" Harry smiled then kissed my cheek while everyone laughed, all except Niall. Suddenly Niall got up and walked away and out of the back doors.

"Niall wait! Please!" I called as he carried on walking and I tried to chase after him in my heels.

"What's the point?!" He turned around.

"Because I need to explain!" I said as I grabbed his arm.

"What is there to explain Clara?! Your dating my best mate and you didn't even bother to tell me!" He said snatching his arm away.

"Niall-" I didn't know whether or not to tell him the truth. If I told him and anyone found out I would surely get sued for violating my contract, but if I didn't, I would lose someone who was beginning to mean a lot too me.

"Niall, I got the impression that you just wanted to be friends."

"So what about the kiss?! It meant nothing to you?!"

"No, I mean yes, I mean..." I looked down in shame.

"Well that just says it all doesn't it."

"I really liked you Clara, I liked you a hell of a lot and I was going to ask ya to be mine. You didn't even bother to tell me you was in a relationship and to top it all off with one of me best mates!"

"Niall I'm sorry!" I said as tears began to form in my eyes.

"Yeah? Well sorry doesn't always cut it! And you know what else?"

"What?" I said quietly looking down in shame.

"I've just lost all me respect for ya. It was nice knowing you Clara Banks. See ya around." He said then walked off towards the front of the restaurant to go to his car.

"Niall please don't go!" I shouted as I began to cry.

"Niall Please!" He just carried on walking away.

I walked back and sat on the wall behind me as I burst into tears.

After about 5 minutes I walked back inside went to the toilet and cleaned my face then went back outside and back over to the table.

"Clara you alright?" Eleanor asked. They could clearly see I had been crying.

"I'm fine." I tried to say but it came out as barley a whisper.

"Are you sure babe?" Harry asked as I sat back down next to him.

"Yes Harry."

They said no more about it for the rest of the evening. After the meal I said goodbye to everyone and told them I had a lovely night. Then Harry dropped me home.

"Thanks harry, I had a nice time." I gave him a half smile as I stepped out of his car.

"Your welcome. I'll see you soon." He smiled then I shut the door and walked over to my house.

I think he was being nice to me as he knew something was up. As soon as I got inside I broke down in tears once again.

All I could think about was Niall...What had I done?
