The Game

•Nine•

Harry's POV

"Tommo grab me a sweat rag!" I bend down resting my hands on my knees out of breath. I look up in the full length mirrors surrounding our studio. We are going over our songs for the next show, although not much working is happening more so boys pissing about. Louis walks over to me and hands me a towel which I use to wipe my face with. I pull my plain white top off and scrunch it up and throw it to the side.

The boys are sitting down on the floor with their bottles of water chatting some shit. I head over to them and sit on louis.

"Get off you gay twat!" Louis pushes me but I stand my ground and push my weight down on to him.

"Bouncy bouncy bouncy" I sing as I jump up and down and hear the boys laughing.

Louis reaches round and grabs my nipples and twists them which makes me groan in pain.

"You two are something else" Liam rolls his eyes.

Louis is undoubtedly my best friend in the band and outside of it. We have a bromance that only we understand.

"You like that Hazza?" He sniggers into my ear.

"Hmm more than you know" I slide of his lap and sit next to him with my arm around his shoulders. We chill in the studio for a few hours. As we have an interview to do with a radio station ahead of the rest of our London shows. Because we are so busy we told them we'll only do it if they attend our private studio.

When four o'clock rolls round Nick Grimshaw turns up with his recorder for the interview.

"Hello boys. Long time, how's it going?" He greets us all.

"Yeah yeah mate. Busy you know? But plodding along like we always do" Liam speaks to him as we all grab a drink before the interview.

"You going to the brits?" Nick thanks me as I hand him a glass of water.

"Of course! We are up for best video so definitely gonna make a appearance. Plus it's always a good night ain't it" I smile remembering last year and how me and the boys got absolutely fucked. I remember how Zayn fell down the steps out of Simon's after party. God I miss that boy.

We settle down in the studio, we know Nick well so it was all relaxed. We sat around in a circle on the floor and Nick turned the recorder on.

"Right, so I'm here with the one direction boys while they are in the middle of their tour and promoting the new album. You must be busy?"

Liam - "Yeah we are busy. But it's good you know. It's nice always having to do something. Something that we love. It's not work to us it never is"

Louis "yeah I gotta agree. We're busy doing something we love. And not many people have that privilege"

"How's the show going? There's been rave reviews. How different is it? As this is obviously your first tour without Zayn"

Niall- "it's going amazing. Probably the best tour yet. We are older and the fans that have followed us are older. So we get to joke around more and not take everything so seriously"

Harry- "Yeah it's different without Zayn there's no hard feelings. He's done what he feels was right for him. But it's odd without him on stage"

Louis- "who's gonna do the smouldering sexy look now"

We all laugh and I try my hardest to copy Zayn's look but I just burst into laughter.

"Yes he's doing good at the moment it appears. So tell me about your fans. What do they mean to you? You've probably got the biggest fan base in the world and you have some crazy fans"

We laugh and remember some of the crazy things that have happened to us when we actually liked our fans. It's different now we in fact hate our fans. I turn my nose up at the question.

Niall- "we love our fans. They are who have brought us here. So we owe everything to them and we wish we could thank them all one by one"

Harry- "we will always be thankful. There won't be enough words to describe how much they mean to us"

We answered a few more normal questions, questions which are always asked in interviews and slowly we come to an end.

"Finally. There has been some speculation surrounding a certain two members of one direction" Nick wiggles his eyebrows. And I lean into Louis.

"Is Larry a thing?" Nick smiles.

"Of course. I love Louis" I lean in a kiss his cheek and cheekily smile at him to which he shakes his head.

"We have a special relationship" Louis cuddles into me.

Once we finish up we say goodbye to Nick and promise to buy him a drink at the brits next month. We walk into the bar and quickly have a drink while we decide on the plans tonight.

"You know it's not gonna be as fun with only three girls. We need more" Liam slaps his hand on the bar.

"Yeah but it's way to soon to find more girls. What we want is another five?" Niall sips his whiskey.

"You shouldn't of sold them other girls then" I shoot a look at him. He had about seven at one point but got bored of them all so sold them off to Europe.

"Meh they were boring, just like Ruby. She's too broken now doesn't fight anymore. Hopefully she loses this game as she's worthless" he stands up and finishes his drink.

We all follow upstairs to our floor with all our bedrooms. We decide to have a shower and freshen up since this is going to be a special night. As I'm getting dressed there is a knock at my door and Louis walks in. His hair is still damp from the shower.

"Alright sexy" I smirk at him as I run the towel over my hair.

"I was thinking we need more girls for this game. And you know who has girls" he walks over to me and picks up my phone from the bedside table and plants it in my hand.

"Lou I don't know" I shake my head.

"Come on! Haz lets make it a good night" he sits on my bed and watches me intensely.

"Fuck sake" I throw my head back. He's right we need more girls for tonight. I bring my phone up and find the number I'm looking for and raise my phone to my ear.

"Babe! How's you?..good good. Yeah I saw! That's great man. Real happy for you...yeah it's good still fucking around, playing games you know the score which leads me to ask you something. You got any girls spare?...we playing that game and we only have three girls ones nearly dead anyway!...hmm. Man that's brilliant!" I put my thumbs up at Louis who rolls around on my bed excitedly. I turn my attention to the phone "Ah man. Yeah swing by at eleven? Yeah that's good. See ya later"

I lock my phone and throw it down on the bed as Louis gets up and opens my door "Boys! Hazza's room now!" He turns around and sits back on the bed as I go back to towel drying my hair. After five minutes the boys enter the room.

"What's the deal?" Liam leans against the wall while he spoons some cereal into his mouth. I frown as I watch the food roll around his mouth.

"Animal" I turn my nose up at him to which he pretends to bite me.

"Lads!" I clap my hands and hold them out to the sides of me. "We have a special guest joining us tonight for our game" I watch as they look at me waiting for me to explain while Louis is literally about to explode on my bed.

"Who?" Niall frowns.

"It better be more girls" Liam munches.

With a little smirk playing on my lips I lean forward towards them "let's just say it will be a reunion"
