Chapter 6: You and Ali...

Louis POV

I woke up and I felt a small head on my chest. I looked down and saw the angel on my head. Her brown hair was pushed back from her face and there was no make up there. She had a light snore and i found it so adorable. I watched her as she slept.

‘You’re staring, I can feel you.’ she said quietly. I tensed a bit, what does she think? Am i weird for staring at her like this. But i decided to play along.

‘I’m gazing’ I said with an obvious smile in my voice.

‘It’s creepy’ she said, jokingly.

‘It’s romantic’ I retorted back.

She giggled. Her laugh was so cheerful. It felt like the events of yesterday never happened.

‘You okay, now?’ I asked her, i was still worried about her. 

‘Yeah, i’m fine. How about you?’ she asked, looking up at me now.

‘I’d be better if you weren’t on my arm.’ i said as a joke. But she took it seriously and began wriggling out of my arms.

‘I’m joking, love.’ I grabbed her shoulders and pulled her back into my chest. I felt crawl back into me and lay down in my arms. We snuggled together and I think Ali was about to fall asleep when the door burst open.

‘Ali, where’s my..?’ Jenna screamed, then lowered her voice when she caught sight of me. She ran straight back out and I heard a door slam. I chuckled, Jenna’s such a cute fan. I’m so going to tweet this.

“Don’t make fun of her. It’s been her long life dream to meet you guys then all of a sudden you’re here in the same house as her. Breathing the same air, as a fan would say’ Ali saved her friend from embarrassment.

‘I wasn’t laughing at her. I find her adorable.’ I told her. A second later, we hear a squeal outside the door. Our heads shot around and we saw a little blonde head poking in the door frame with wide eyes. 

‘Come here, Jen’ Ali said, sitting up. My face half fell when her skin left contact with mine. But i quickly smiled for Jenna’s sake.

‘Hello, love’ I told her, starting to get out of bed. ‘I need to go have a shower, do you have any clothes i can borrow?’

‘Erm, don’t take this the wrong way but I have my best friend’s clothes here. He sleeps over sometimes...’ 

My heart dropped at this. I don’t know why because we’re not even together, I’m not sure if i like her though. She’s an amazing girl, but do i have feelings for her? She handed me his clothes and I walked off. I stepped into the shower and let the warm water engulf me. I sang the lyrics to Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney because it totally suited what I thought about Alira. I got out of the shower and got ready. 

‘I’ll take you back home’ Alira told me as soon as I walked out of the bathroom. She was dressed in a floral dress that hugged her figure perfectly.

‘Come on’ she said, grabbing my hand and we walked out the door.

Harry’s POV

Waking up with the image of Ali’s smile was one of the best ways to get up. Even if i’ve known her for a few hours, I have this strong feeling towards her. I walk down the stairs in an exceptionally good mood, I didn’t even bother putting on a shirt because the house was full of boys. I walked into the kitchen to find Niall stuffing his face in pancakes. The hotel stocked us up on food and i guess Niall attacked them this morning, again. I grabbed a pancake that wasn’t on his plate and walked to where the tv was. I wondered where Louis was because he never came back after he left to go for a walk. His probably drunk somewhere. I heard the keys turn in the door and I jumped up.

‘LOU! IS THAT YOU!’ I automatically screamed.

The door opened wide and Louis and Ali walked through the door, hand in hand. My eyes stared at there hands linked together and I felt the smile fall off my face. Alira automatically snatched her arm back and blushed. I watched Ali and she avoided my face.

‘Go put a shirt on, Haz’ Louis said shielding his eyes. I know he was joking around because he’s seen me shirtless so many times. But I guess I should since Ali’s here.

I walked away to go put a shirt on and when I came back Louis was spread out on the floor while Ali stands awkwardly near the door.

‘Come in, love. We don’t bite’ I said, smiling. I grabbed her hand and she let me drag her to the couch.

‘Ali! What are you doing here?’ Niall screamed from the kitchen doorway. 

‘Erm, I just came to drop Louis off.’ she said a bit quietly.

‘What was Louis doing with you? Was he drunk?’ Liam said, sounding a tad bit concerned.

‘I wasn’t drunk. Why do you always think i’m drunk!?’ Louis screamed and he put a little pout face. Alira giggled at that and I smiled at her. I couldn’t help it, her laugh makes me giddy.

‘Actually, he came to.. um’ Alira started but she looked back to Louis.

‘I just wanted to drop by hers when I was on my walk.’ Louis finished her sentence.

‘Yeah, and I was pretty lucky that he came.’

‘Lucky? Why?’ I asked, pretty confused. What happened last night?

‘My, um, ex-boyfriend Blake showed up. He, err, would’ve killed me if Lou didn’t show up’ she told the rest of us. I was so shocked. I would’ve lost her before I even got to know her. But then I was a bit disappointed it wasn’t me who was there to save her life.

‘Who’s Blake?’ Zayn said from the doorway of his room. 

‘He, um..’ she looked a bit unsure and I saw her eyes flit to Louis and back. I saw Louis tense up and he got up and walked over to her.

‘You don’t have to say it unless you don’t want to’ I heard Louis whisper to her.

‘I’m sorry guys, I’ll tell you another time.’ and with that she walked out the door. I stared after her, ignoring the urge to run after her and hug her tight. 

I looked back to Louis and he has his hands up as if in surrender.

‘Don’t you all look at me like that. She told me because I had to know.’ He walked over to the kitchen and grabbed an apple. He sunk his teeth into it. None of us could move, we were a bit shocked at what happened just then. But as soon as the tv went louder we all began to move. I sat down next to Louis, a bit further away then I usually would.

‘Okay, Harry. What’s wrong?’ he automatically said because he knows i’m keeping my distance.

‘It’s nothing’ i murmured.

‘Don’t ‘it’s nothing’ me. Tell me. What’s wrong with you?’ he pressed on. I sighed and told him.

‘You and Ali’ His face turned shocked and he opened his mouth to say something.
