Chapter 18: crazy morning.

Harry's POV

After we went back to the house everyone decided they were tired. So we all walked groggily to bed. Jake was going to go home but Jenna didn't want him to leave so he decided to sleep on the couch. 

I woke up and now i’m laying in bed trying to figure out how to have a day with Alira. I need her to know that I like her as well and that I will always be with her, no matter what. I hear footsteps up the stairs and a little giggling. I stood up from bed and peaked outside. It was Niall and janelle. Honestly, I think she's bad news. She gives off an eerie feeling. Like I know she said she'll lay off and all but I swear to god she will do something. I overheard Louis telling Ali that he will always protect her. That's what I want to do. That's what I will do. I will protect her all the time. 

What the hell should I do tomorrow? And that's when it all clicked in. I got the whole scenery in my head. Yes, I hope it wins her over. 

Alira's POV

I rolled over in my bed and all the sleep left my body. Now I lay awake in bed with thoughts swimming around in my head. I've realised I like Louis. I like him a lot. And I want to be with him but he will get hurt. Sam will hurt him and janelle will too. I know her revenge is to make me watch someone I love get hurt. One of these boys will get hurt. And I can't do that. I can't watch them get hurt. Especially Louis. 

Suddenly, Harry's face popped into my head. The way he's green eyes sparkled with laughter. The way his smile takes my breath away. The way his laugh fills me with happiness. The way his smirk makes me want to hit him. Do I like him? Ugh, I'm not even sure anymore. Is it even possible to like two people at once? what if I had to choose between them? I can't do that. That's when I realise, I do like both of them. How the hell am I supposed to be with both of them? Ugh. Why is everything so complicated. 

I check the time on my phone and instead, I get blinded by the light. I blinked my eyes rapidly until all the black spots disappear from my vision. It's 5:53 and I can't sleep. I rolled off my bed and walked towards the door. I peered out into the hallway and everything was dead quiet. I lazily walked down the stairs and headed for the kitchen. Instead of coffee I made milo because I love milo and I miss it. I drank it until there was no more. I checked the time again and it was 6:30. The sun was beginning to rise and I decided to go for a jog along the beach. I put on my pink spandex top that stops just under my ribs and put on my grey tights that stops at my calves. I pull on my fluro green joggers and tied my hair into a bun. I snuck back outside, putting the earphones in my ears and blasting my music. Once my feet hit the sand I began to jog. I let the music engulf my mind and let my thoughts run wild. 

An hour later, I went back to the house. I took off my sandy shoes and left it out front. I panted and walked over to fridge looking for a bottle of water. I grabbed one and spun around on my heel. 

'Gah! You scared me!' I say, clutching my chest. The curly-haired boy standing in front of my with no top and grey sweatpants smirked and he walked over to the pantry. 

'Pancakes?' he offered. 

'yeah, sure. I'm just gonna take a shower first.' I say, walking past him. 

'want me to join you?' he says with another smirk and winked. I playfully slapped his arm. 

'don't be a perv, Harry!' I say and I walked towards the shower in my room. 

I yanked out my ponytail and stripped off my clothes after I blasted music from my speakers. I hopped into the shower and sang along to the music.
