-Chapter 6-
Dressed in a pair of skinny, black trousers, a white crop top and a denim jacket I step into the studio. The heel of my black Chelsea boots made a soft squeaking noise every time I walked, driving me absolutely crazy.
I was once again meeting the band to finish our song. Apparently it was too late for it to go on their fourth album, FOUR, so was instead being moved to the next album.
After greeting everyone I sat down next to Niall. "Shall we get started on this song?" I as the other joined us at the table.
We shared all our bits and pieces and by the early afternoon we had come up with a song. The boys even recorded a first draft and it sounded absolutely amazing.
We were just preparing to leave when Gracie barged into the room. Her eyes found mine and I had to withhold myself from gulping.
"Cora can you come here please?" She asked and I nodded, walking over to where she was standing in the doorway. As soon as I got to her she shoved her phone into my hand. "Can you explain this?" She said, pointing down to the screen. I sent her a questioning look before looking down on the screen.
"Oh fuck." I cursed.
On the screen were photos of Niall and me from last night. They started out innocent, just us two eating food and talking in the restaurant. The photographer had followed us out and had got shots of us holding hands, which didn't prove anything. However, he had also gotten the fatal moment of Niall and me kissing.
I was about to ask what could be done about all this when Niall's manager came into the room. "Niall." He called out and gestured for him to come over to him. He too handed Niall a phone and Niall's reaction mimicked mine only with more swearing.
The way Gracie was looking at me made me feel like a little girl caught stealing chocolate without her mum's permission. It made me boil with rage. I was twenty for God's sake, I didn't need anyone telling me off for kissing a guy.
By now the other members could tell that something was wrong and Liam had pulled out his phone, obviously looking for a reason. He needn't look long, the photos were probably all over the internet by now.
I was snapped out of my thoughts by a hand on my arm. I looked up and saw that the hand belonged to Niall. "Can you give us a moment?" He asked Gracie who nodded and went over to see Paul. Niall pulled me out of the room and shut the door behind us.
"Fuck." We both cursed at the same time. This caused us to laugh.
"Cora I don't care about the photos." Niall admitted.
I shrugged. "I don't either. It just means the whole 'no strings attached' has changed." I pointed out.
"Not necessarily. We can still have fun. We aren't dating so we won't tell anyone we are. Let's just keep the whole situation hush hush and not tell anyone." Niall shrugged.
"It's going to get blown out of proportion." I argued.
"We won't add fuel to the flame if we just stay quite." Niall put forward.
"Our managements won't like it." I sighed.
"Who cares? We're both adults." He added, and I found myself being more and more drawn to him.
"That's right. We are friends who are having a bit of fun, no big deal. It's between us and nobody else." I said.
Niall nodded and kissed my lips briefly. "Now let go back in there and pretend that is was a one off that means nothing and laugh about it." Niall suggested and I found myself agreeing. We both re-entered the room and all eyes were on us. "Just imagine everyone naked." Niall whispered in my ear and I couldn't contain my laughter.
