Chapter Eleven: Blushes and Secrets

Melissa's Point of View

I woke up early, the bus rattling and swaying because we were driving to a new destination. I made myself a glass of ice water and felt two stong arms wrap around my waist and pick me up. I fought to keep my giggle from escaping my lips when I felt soft curls on my cheek.

"Harry! Put me down!" I giggled and he sat me back on my feet.

"Good morning, gorgeous." He winked and pulled me in for a long kiss. I smirked on his lips and I felt him becoming pleased with himself. He tried to deepen it and chuckled and pulled away. He gave me a look with his pouty lip and puppy dog eyes.

"My sister said not to be dating any of you guys." I sighed and he wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my forhead.

"Why can't you just tell her?" He said against my forehead.

"Because she's the only person I can trust and she has a short temper and if I make her made I could see her shipping my arse straight back to Dublin." I sighed and laid my head against Harry's muscular chest. "beside she's pregnant and I don't wanna put her through stress like that." My eyes widened and I heard my conscience start to curse at me for being such an idiot, Harry pulled me out to arm's length and looked into my eyes disbelievingly.

"Did you just say, our stylist Lexi, is pregnant?" He said cautiously.

"Harry you cannot tell anybody!"  I hissed and hid my face behind my hands. He removed my sweaty palms from my face and used his bright green eyes to stare into mine sympathetically.

"Lissa, I won't tell anyone, I promise. But umm, who is the, you know, dad?"  He asked slowly. I adverted his gaze.

"Niall."  I whispered and his jaw dropped, "YOU CAN'T TELL!" I whispered-yelled and he nodded. I heard stirring from the bunk area and quickly pecked him on the lips and moved far across the kitchen from him. My sister emerged from the bunk area in an over-sized, black Nirvana sweatshirt and her signature alligator slippers with her flame red curls unruly and tangled as usual.

"Hey blondie." She yawned and ruffled my hair. She made herself some tea and put a couple spoonfuls of sugar in it. She sipped her tea blissfully and Harry eyed her midsection curiously. She stared at Harry strangely and he looked up once he had gotten caught. "Haz, what are you doing ya weirdo?" She asked, slightly creeped out.

"I...I, umm, you look really nice today, Lex." He smiled charmingly and she rolled her eyes. Zayn appeared from the bunk area and looked Lexi up and down smiled crookedly. For the first time in my life I saw my sister sheepish, she smiled shyly and bright red blush reached her cheeks. Zayn reached for a glass and made himself a glass of orange juice and whispered in her ear and she giggled like a schoolgirl. I widened my eyes and she rolled her eyes and forced a hand through her tangled hair. Louis, Liam, and Niall made their way out of their bunks as Harry and Lexi started making bacon and eggs.

"Ok, boys," Lexi snapped and got their attention, "I'm sorry, but you guys can't switch outfits today in LA, ok?" She said as she pulled the sweatshirt over her bum and the boys groaned. Harry set down the sweet-smelling food infront of the boys and their moods lightened.

"I can't wait to get to the hotel!" Harry exclaimed and munched on his eggs.

"We get to go a hotel?" Lexi said excitedly.

"Yes ma'am." Liam smiled.

"I call staying with Lexi!" Zayn smiled and winked at her as she blushed once again.

"But I wanted to stay with Lexi-Poo!" Louis whined.

"Um, guys what about my sister?" She giggled and put an arm around my shoulders.

"I'm fine." I said took a step away from her. She put her hand in the middle of her chest in fake hurt and rolled her eyes and turned to the boys.

"Ok fine, boy I have an Idea..maybe we could draw names?" Lexi said and the boys nodded happily.

"I like that idea!" Liam smiled.

"Ok I'll be right back, one of you write down names." She smiled and walked back to her suitcase, coming back shortly with a Irish flag design snapback after Louis had finished writing down names. "Ok, Lou put the name in here." She said and he did as she said so.

"Ok Niall you go first." She smiled and handed the hat to the blonde boy. He fished a piece of paper from the hat and unfolded it.

"I got...LOUIS!" He smiled and high fived the carrot-loving boy.

"Ok, so first pair is Lou and Nialler," She smiled, "Zayn?" She blushed and handed the hat to him.

"I got Lex." He smiled and gave my sister a hug, her cheeks erupting into scarlet blushes.

"Harry." She walked up to the curly-headed boy and he picked out his piece of paper.

"Look likes, Melissa." He smiled and my sister eyed the boy.

"Ok, so we have Lou and Niall, Me and Zayn, and Melissa and Harry. Umm, Liam pick who you want to stay with." She smiled and he thought for a moment.

"Can I stay with you and Zayn, Lex?" He asked hopefully and my sister and Zayn exchanged a look.

"Sure Li." She smiled and the small girl pulled tall Liam into a bear hug.
