Choosing A Direction

~Chapter 13~

Things have finally gotten normal between Harry, Niall and I. I'm glad I patched things up with the boys I love.

Yes, I have finally admitted to my feelings. I was falling in love with both Harrya and Niall and knew this was a bad thing since it never ends up well--in the movies, in the books, hell, even the plays. And I know Harry's not one to share, either.

One evening, we were lying on the bus, bored out of our minds and Harry as sleeping peacefully in the bench seat in the back. I was feeling mischevious, as all kids do when they're bored, and Harry was the perfect target.  

"Louis," I whisered, knowing he'd love to be my partner in crime, "I'm going to need some shaving cream and Sharpie," Zayn, Liam, and Niall heard my coice of items and looked over their seats, looking like dogs with their ears cocked with curiosity.

"You guys wanna help me prank Harry?" I needn't say more. They sprang from their seats and grabbed some Sharpies and a can of shaving cream. Zayn wrote on his forehead, with an arrow pionting towards his mouth, "Insert penis here," Niall did the old shaving cream-in-hand thing and I told him to wait before tickling his face. Louis was busy scribbling a Seneca Crane style beard on his face, and Liam gave him a unibrow with his ccan of shaving cream. 

I stood by watching with bemusement. I barely had to do anything. When they were done, they stood back to admire their work.

"I feel like something's missing," i tapped my chin thoughtfully until it finally came to me. I ran to my backpack and covered Harry with my body so they couldn't see my masterpiece until I was finish.

"Ta da!" The boys burst into barely held laughter.  I had stuck two tampons in Harry's ears and fashioned a rather chic belt of them in the loop of his jeans. I couldn't help but laugh, too, but remembered to keep it silent so as not to wake him, yet.

"We gotta Twitter this," gasped Louis through bouts of laughter. He took the picture and captioned, "This is what happens when you fall asleep on the tour bus while everyone else is bored and awake,"

"Okay, Niall, go wake him up," Niall gladly followed my instructed and brushed someone's dirty socks over Harry's face. Harry's hand swung up to brush it away and found it  his face covered in shaving cream.

"What the---" He gasped as he startled awake. We couldn't hold it any longer and burst out laughing again at how ridiculous he looked. He looked down to survey the mess and saw the tampon belt I made with his jeans. He was a pretty good sport about and just pulled out the tampons in his ears and said, "Zayn, I think you'll be needing these," tears were now coming out of my eyes becaus  I was laughing so hard.

Harry went into the bathroom to wash off the shaving cream and we held our breaths, waiting for his reaction to when he sees the Sharpie on his face.

"Really!?" He cried as we died in our seats.

*************

"And when you're getting the coins on the side you got to tilt the phone that way," Niall leaned into me, our bodies pressed together and the scent of his Axe colonge wafting in my face every now and then was making it very hard to focus, espicially when it was this early in the morning.

I had downloaded a new game app for a very popular game called, "Temple Run" I was as addicted to it as i was to Angry Birds, but still needed to know some things, which Niall was instructing me in.

"Good job!" I basked in his praise, pleased that i could make him happy. He ruffled my hair and returned to his seat to start his own game.

I was well into the temple when there was a sudden bumping noise and the bus swerved. My little explorer person fell to his death and the phone slid under the seat. The bus was spinning out of control and Liam was yelling something at me that I couldn't hear because i was gripped with fear.

Harry's hand clasped around mine and he yelled, "Grab Niall's hand!" 

I looked around for Niall and found him now in the seat right across from me. He seemed to be unconcious and there was a gaping wound in his head. i was scared out of my mind and could barely think straight, but now there was only one thing I needed to focus on: grabbing Niall's hand.

i reached across as far as I could without letting go of Harry's hand and could just barely brush his knucles. Just as I was going for his hand, we slammed into a gaurdrail and he flew out the window and into the dark abyss below. 

I didn't even hear myself scream.

*************

I know, i know, it sounds terrible and sad and stuff, but trust me, nobody dies--or do they? You'll just have to wait and see XD thanks for reading!
