Me, my mouth and 1D

Chapter 19

Katie's POV

"I uh, I lied. My dad really was alive. He was a drunk, but always sobered up for work and "company". I always took care of him, not matter what. The first day I met you guys, he had never hit me. But when I came home that night...things changed. I pretended this was both Kelly's and I's place. It's really just hers. No one except Kelly knows about my dad. No one. It's why you've never met him. The day Harry saw me in he alley from the Kelly thing, I lied. Kelly came to my rescue,."

I watched all their faces as I told my story. The all looked... hurt.. Hurt that I never told the truth. Especially Harry.

"So," I went on, "the day you asked me to go on tour, my dad was the reason. I couldn't leave him behind with no one to back him up if her got in to trouble. I needed to be there. And that scream in the airport? It wasn't about my shows. My dad had been in an accident. And he was tested positive for alcohol. By the time I got to the hospital, he was dead. So I went on with my life, pretending I was okay."

"So that's why one of my home phones are broken? People kept calling?" Kelly asked and I nodded.

"I um, think we should all head out and... process this, yeh?"Liam asked. Everyone agreed and quickly left. Now, it was just Kelly and I.

Before I could say anything, she explained to me the last 5 days. I wasn't very surprised on my behavior though...heh... Once she finished, she brang something up that I wished we could have forgotten.

"Jake told you he loved you?"

"Yes."

"What are we going to do about this...?"

"I um," I started nervously, " I can't believe I'm saying this but... I'm so going to hell for this but... we might need to kill him."

"WHAT?!" Kelly jumped out of her chair.

"I know it's crazy but what else are we going to do?"

"Tell the police? Get a restraining order?" she questioned, also giving out ideas.

"What he's done isn't enough for that. He'll keep coming back. Coming back for me. And after a while, he might get bored and come for you. I can't and won't let that happen. I never thought of myself of being the person to kill. But he.. he can do things. Lots of things that I'm pretty sure you know of. We have to," I said more confidently.

"No.'

"No?" I asked snobbishly.

"It's not going to happen. It's to far. Besides, what will Harry and the media think of you?"

"Harry isn't my boyfriend. He'll just have to deal. And the media? They wont be interested once One Direction loose interest. Are you in? We can make it look like an accident."

"I. Said. No." And she stormed out.

**2 hours**

"- best I ever had, hips don't lie. You make me wanna tsss one more night!" I listened to One Direction's 'Better than Words'. My room felt like the place to be at the moment...

"Katie?" Harry walked in my room. I didn't even bother turning off the music as I replied--

"Yeah?"

"Can you turn off the music? I wanna talk." My eyebrows furrowed as I lowered it.

Harry's POV

I have to, I told myself. After I left, I went back to my place. And I thought. Katie means... the world to me. Knowing that there will be other guys after her, I thought it was time to make her mine. With or without a second date. So, here I am, in her room, about to ask her.
