ONE THING

Chapter 10 ~ The decision

"So what do you think, who will she choose?" asked Niall with his mouth full of food. "I don't know." I replied. "There's only way to find out!" We finished our food and turned back into FBI agents mode. Or at least that's what I did. I'm not sure Niall was into it as much as me. Anyways, we got to the place where Zoe and Zayn were meeting 15 minutes earlier and now had to find a good hiding place. Ok, I admit it, our last spot was a little bit too obvious but this time we'll act like pros. Which we are, of course. So, we went to the nearest bar and chose a table in the corner which you couldn't see very well when you came in, just in case they decide to go here. See? That's a pro secret agent talking. God, I wish I had some sunglasses and newspaper with me. Nah, that would be too obvious. This isn't a story or a movie. This is real life. OMG, I sound so smart right now. Kind of like.. Zayn? Maybe that's a sign from God that she will choose Zayn? Or not? Yeah, probably not. Anyways, my deep thoughts were interrupted when Niall shouted something in my ear. "They're here!" he said. I looked up and saw Zayn and Zoe kissing outside. Man, today is her lucky day. Now they started walking somewhere and I realized they were going right here. I hope she won't notice us. But, just in case, I told Niall that we should start kissing so they won't see our faces when they come in. And I did it just because of that! It was strictly professional! Ok, ok, I maybe did it because I love kissing Niall, but yeah, it doesn't matter. Actually, it was so good that I forgot everything about our little mission. Which is a good thing, of course. This way I acted completely natural and unsuspicious. We had to stop at some point, though, so I pulled away. It took a real effort. Just saying. Luckily, Zayn and Zoe were at the other side of the bar, and we could see them, but they couldn't see us. And that's of course, because of my perfect choice of our table. But we couldn't hear a word they were saying so we had to think of something. If I only brought my listening device! Wait, what? I don't have one! God, maybe I'm too much into all this spy shit. It won't be too long and I'll be introducing myself in "James. James Bond" style. Or was it "Bond. James Bond" Ugh, I always mix those too. I can google it now and maybe also check my twi-. "Honey?" I heard Niall saying. I suddenly remembered where I was and what should I be doing. What's wrong with me? I'm sure James Bond didn't check his facebook page while he was on the secret mission. Wait, does he even have facebook? Of course he doesn't, he doesn't exist! What was in that juice I drank today? Holy shit! Maybe my parents are poisoning me! It's all so clear now! I remember when- Oh crap. I'm doing it again! Back to reality. "I've got an idea" said Niall. "What are you talking about?" I asked wondering why he thought of something before I did. "Why don't we make it spicy?" he said with a weird smile on his face. "But they don't have chilli here" I replied. He just smiled and took his phone. Is he going to order some chilli or what? "Hey, Harry." I heard him saying. Does Harry have some chilli? He doesn't need chilli, he's already hot. Man, that was a good one. "...see you there" said Niall and hung up. Fuck, I didn't hear what did he say before. "What are you doing?" I asked. "I told Harry to meet us here. And then we're going to casually walk over to these two. And watch the show." replied Niall. Man, that is genious! I'm so proud of my smart boyfriend. All we have to do now is sit here and wait for Harry to arrive. 

There he is. Let the show begin. We quickly jumped to our feet and went to say hello to him. Then, I looked around the bar and faked a surprise when i saw Zoe. "OMG, look, there's Zoe here! How come we didn't notice her? And look, she's with Zayn! And look, they're kis- umm.." I stopped, happy with my acting and thinking I should be an actress and looked up to Harry. I was still thinking about being both an actress and secret agent and having a double life like Hannah Montana that I didn't notice the look on Harry's face. Now I finally focused and saw that he was completely emotionless. Actually, he was looking.. happy? I looked at Niall who was confused just like me. "Let's go say hi!" said Harry and started walking towards them. I was really confused now. And where is the chilli? Anyways, since I was both a great actress and a secret agent, I went there too, faked a smile and said "Well, hello again, Zoe! Hi, Zayn!" "Vas happenin, guys?" said Zayn with a happy smile on his face. "Hey, mate" said Harry. "Hello, buddy." said Niall. Well, that's a lot of hello's, hi's and hey's. Now, how am I gonna say this casually, without being obvious about my intentions? Well, fuck that. "So, you and Zayn are together?" I asked. "Yes, we are." said Zoe. "And I see you too are dying to know everything" she pointed at me an Niall "so why don't we all take a seat and hear the whole story?" she said. We all sat down and she started talking. "Well, when you guys were gone, Harry and I talked a bit and agreed that we had fun together, but that he wasn't ready to be in a relationship yet. He didn't say why though." she smiled and looked at Harry. I caught his eye and I think I saw him blushing? But why? Why would the flirt be blushing? He quickly looked away from me and the whole thing was gone. Was it only my imagination? But there was something in his look too. Anyways, Zoe started talking again, so I couldn't think about it more. "And when Zayn and I met again, I realized I wanted to be with him. So, here we are now, officially a couple" she smiled and kissed him on the cheek. 

"This was a busy day." I said, lying on the couch. Niall was right next to me, we were in his hotel room.  "I had a lot of fun today, you know." he said and smiled. "But.." he said and his face was suddenly serious. "as you probably know, we can't stay here forever." Oh no! That was the thing I was pushing away deep in my brain. "We're having a tour" I heard him saying. "And that's why I wanted to ask you something." he looked me in the eyes. "Would you and Zoe like to come with us?"
