Chasing Ari (a 1D Fanfic )

Chapter 14

***Niall's POV***

"Oh, my gosh. Lauren. Kill me now. If you were my little sister, you would kill me now. Do you hear me, Winter?"  I divulge to my little sister. 

She laughs, "What just happened?"

"She heard me. Arianna heard. She heard me. She probably heard the whole conversation. This is bad." I say, covering my face with my free hand.

"Niall. I think you'll be okay."  she proclaims.

"I don't think so. I'll ask Harry to save me. I gotta go. I love you."

"Love ya too!'  she adds. 

I hang up and  immediately text Harry. He's going to hate me but I don;t know what to do.

To: Harry

Help. We gotta get out of here. Tell them that there's some meeting for the upcoming tour and we have an urgent video meeting.

I hit send. My heart is beating fast. I shiver as I realise I'm still in my swin trunks. There is no way I am going back out there.

I send another quick text.

To: Harry

Grab my stuff and I will love you forever mate.

I hit the send button and stare at the screen until the little whirling envelope flys away.

I lay my head on the table and watch the sliding glass door. Maybe I am over reacting just a little bit. Just a bit.  It wasn't the end of the world. 

But if she was here the whole conversation, she would have hear me talking about not having a girlfriend, and then saying her name. Oh, and not to mention calling her beautiful. Yupp, that happened, too.

Lol, life.

I saw Harry at the sliding glass window. He slid it open and said another goodbye to everyone. He apologized for the suddenness of everything.

He had my stuff in one hand and his phone in the other. 

He stared at me in awe. He dropped my stuff in front of me. "Well, whats the matter, mate? Why are we leaving in such haste?" Harry inquired, heading towards the door, not even waitng for an awnser.

I got up from my chair and followed his trail towards the front door.

"Well, mate? You can walk and talk, can't you?" Harry  badgered again.

I was still silent. 

"Can we go get pizza or something, and I'll tell you then. I need food." I whined.

God, I was acting like a child. But I couldn't find it in me to face Arianna after that encounter, or whatever you want to call it. I have no idea what she thinks about me, or what she thought I was referring to when I spoke her name.

"Okay, fine. This must be serious if you need food." Harry said, his hands in his pocket, searching for his car keys. "Meet you at Napoli's."  He opened his car door and shut it quick. He sounded a little testy, but then again, I did just pull him away from his girlfriend.  

I got into my car and reversed out of the drive way. Harry had already made his way down the street and I followed closely behind. He drifted the right turn, Tires slapping asphalt and smoke rising from the mess. 

Yupp, I pissed Harry off. He is probably thinking how he doesn't have time for my peasant problems.
