I Love You More

Chapter 6

“Brooke, she’s gonna get fat if you keep feeding her treats,” Niall stated as I fed Molly more dog treats. We’ve been here for most of the day and I just started feeding her treats, she’ll be fine!

“She’s a growing girl!” I said in a ‘cute puppy’ voice.

“Actually she’s as big as she’ll get,” Liam stated, sitting next to Niall with a bowl of popcorn.

“Well she’s still little to me!” I replied, playing with Molly.

“I didn’t know a 32 kilogram dog is little!” Niall replied, chuckling a little at his “joke.”

“She’s only 3 years old, so she’s still a puppy, just full grown!” I defended, rubbing behind Molly’s ears.

“Do you guys want anything to drink?” Harry asked as he walked towards the kitchen.

“Surprise me!” Niall said, kicking his feet up onto the coffee table and laying his head back.

“You can have water,” Harry walked into the kitchen.

“Brooke, have you talked to Skyler lately?” Liam asked me quietly.

“Yeah, just a few nights ago actually. Why?” I replied, moving up to the couch by Liam.

“Just wondering, how is she?” he inquired.

“Still hates Harry… a lot,” I answered his question.

“Oh.” Harry came back before the conversation could carry on to anything more.

“Harry, did you know Gemma is in town?” I asked once Harry sat down.

“No, what is she doing here?” he replied, taking a drink of whatever was in his glass.

“She got a job, but she’s staying with Niall and I until she finds a place. She was gonna stay with you guys here, but she asked us first.”

“She didn’t even text me or anything…” Harry sounded disappointed.

“I’m sure she just forgot, but she says hi,” I tried cheering him up, but when he’s upset, nothing makes him happy, so I figured I won’t try hard.

“Oh well,” Harry took another drink.

“Let’s go out tonight!” I randomly said, trying to change the subject.

“What?” Niall asked, looking at me like I had a second head.

“I haven’t been out in forever since I started working and none of us have to work tomorrow, so lets go clubbing!” I explained. This could be good for all of us. Niall could stop thinking about breaking up, Harry needs to get out and the other guys can tag along to help them be happy.

“Ok? You never want to go out though, are you feeling alright?” Niall asked, putting his drink down on the coffee table.

“Yeah, I feel great! I just wanna party!” I replied, laughing.

“Ok…”

“Well I can’t wear this!” I said, standing up. “Drive me home so I can change?” Niall got up and walked to the door with me.

“We’ll be back in a few hours,” Niall said as we walked out the door. “What has gotten into you?”

“What? I can’t go out to have a good time?” I asked, smiling at Niall.

“I never said that. It was just random that you wanted to go clubbing. Usually I’m the one dragging you out the door to go with me and the guys.” Niall started the car and drove off to our house.
