What are One Direction doing under my bed!?

Chapter 8

Harry's POV

I missed her. I knew I did, and I'm so glad I found her. She doesn't seem to share that excitement though. It's obvious that she doesn't care about meeting me again. I can tell by the way she focuses on her glass of water and isn't even trying to admire my sexy abs that she doesn't like me. I blushed in shame.

Lacy picked up her glass of water and walked back into the living room. I followed behind her.

When we walked into the colourful foyer, I found Zayn and Lacy's mum talking together on one of the lounges. Niall and Liam were playing with Lacy's younger sister. Louis was standing near the enterance of the room, tapping his toe against the cream tiled floor. His arms were folded across his chest.

"You better not be cheating on me." He said accusingly. Lacy snickered. I rolled my eyes.

"Nothing happened." I said.

"Where's your glass of water then?" He asked. I shrugged.

"I decided I didn't want one." Truth was, I never wanted one, I only wanted to talk to Lacy.

Louis gave me one last accusing look and then he stalked off. Lacy was on the floor, shaking with laughter.

"What's so funny?" I asked, trying to keep a smile from crossing my face. Lacy is pretty cute when she's laughing...

"Well, you and Louis... It's just a bit... Ridiculous." She snorted.

"It is not!" I answered automatically.

"Yes it is. Like, seriously, you're going to have girlfriends." She smiled and stood up, recovering from her outburst.

"I know, but..." I trailed off. It was true. We were going to have girlfriends. I stalked off in answer to her question. I heard her laugh quietly before moving over to her sister.

I sat on the lounge and stared at her as she played with her sister. She looked so happy there, in that moment. I wish I could take a photo of her right now...

"You like her." Niall's voice came from my right side. I turned towards him.

"Okay, maybe I do, but I've known her for ages, so it's alright." I answered.

"How long is ages?" He asked.

"Um..." I did the maths in my head, "About a year, really. I mean I've known her for three but she moved here so... Yeah." I said.

"That's not ages Haz." Niall told me.

"I know." I sighed.

"Do you think she likes me?" I asked.

"No." He said automatically. "I mean, she seems to hate all of us a lot..." He went on.

"Great. That's wonderful. I totally wanted to know that. Thanks." I said sarcastically.

"So you weren't actually asking me if I thought she liked you, you just wanted me to say yes anyway?" He asked.

"Yes." I replied.

"Okay, she totally likes you. Just look at those glances that she keeps stealing to look at you." He said.

"What glances?" I looked towards her, eager to catch her staring.

"I was telling you what you wanted to hear." Niall stated.

"That she likes you."

I sighed. It's clear that Lacy will never like me.

I know that I promised some people this chapter, and I'm so sorry it's short. I got stuck and didn't have any inspiration at all. I'm so sorry. The fact that I have English Love Affair stuck in my head didn't help either.... It's a good song. :)

I'm so glad that so many people like this book! I love every comment, vote, reading list add, follows. It's so amazing how some people go crazy over this book!

Stay beautiful,
