Hello, my beautiful babies, and a happy Thursdayyyy!! :) Shouts to @FallinFor1D and her wonderful fanfic, I Do!! She's a really good writer and I think you guys should most definitely check her story out! She's fabulous! And that story is absolutely brilliant. Not even gonna lie. But Arabella is a bitch. Anywho, I have a tadbit of a problem: I can't figure out what dress Coryn should wear *spoiler alert spoiler alert* to the awards show in Chapter 16 (maybe 15)! So if you guys could pretty please with sugar on top choose your favorite out of these 12 dresses that'd be perfect. :) http://www.polyvore.com/award_show_options/set?id=59749396 ; http://www.polyvore.com/award_show_dresses/set?id=59749733 ; http://www.polyvore.com/award_show_dresses/set?id=59750050 Uh, so on to the chapter shall we?? This one will be reallly short (like really short) because I decided to split it because I've been delaying it all week because I'm the world's best procrastinator. Anyways, the other part, which will be Chapter 15, will be up tomorrow afternoon. Thank you guys soooo much for your patience and for reading!! You are all beautiful and I love you! :) xX Emm ♥

*Coryn's POV*

“What to do we do? Do we just let them sleep?” I heard someone whisper from above me.

“I don’t know. Look at her. She’s like a little puppy. How can we not just let her sleep?”

I squinted my eyes open and found all four boys leaning over us. When they noticed that I was awake they all jumped back and attempted to make themselves look busy. I sat up, realizing that I was still resting my head on Harry’s chest. He was still sound sleep, his chest rising and falling softly.

I elbowed him in his ribs and he woke up abruptly. “We’ve got company,” I singsonged.

He blinked his eyes slowly before finally focusing on the boys. “What’s up, lads?”

Lou piped up quickly, poking his head out from in between Niall and Liam’s shoulders. “I think we should be asking that question, right mates?” Louis looked expectantly at the others who just gave him uninterested looks.

“I was just going to ask Coryn if she was ready for our date,” Liam asked matteroffactly, looking at me apologetically.

“No no no,” Lou replied angrily, pushing through them to sit in between me and Harry. “We have more important matters to deal with.”

Harry and I sighed simultaneously and then immediately turned to look at the other. So, Lou had talked to Harry about the situation. This could get awkward very quickly. Zayn sighed as well, taking his phone out of his back pocket and typing something in. Niall and Liam sat down on the piano bench, waiting for Lou to jump to the point.

“Harry. Coryn. We have gathered you both here because there is a problem that is breaking apart our happy home.” I groaned loudly, burying my face in my hands. “None of that, Ryn, this is a very serious matter.”

I could feel everyone watching and I felt nauseous. “Can’t we eat first?” I mumbled, stalling what I knew was inevitable. Once Louis had his mind set on something there was no way to deviate him from his plan.

“No. Not until we deal with this, okay? Okay. Now, like I was saying before, this is a very serious moment.” He dramatically turned to Harry and placed his hands on his shoulder. “Harry. I, Louis Tomlinson, give you my blessing to stop secretly dating Coryn and to officially start dating her in the public.”

Harry blushed profusely while the others stared at me wide eyed. I, however, was focused completely on Harry. “I’m…we’re not…Lou, we talked about this,” he groaned, throwing his head back, exasperated.

“Talked about what?” I asked dumbly.

It was Lou’s turn to groan. “Ugh. You two are probably the stupidest, most in denial people that have ever walked this Earth!”

“You two really don’t get it, do you?” Liam asked softly. We both shook our heads.

“Harry, Coryn fancies you. Coryn, Harry fancies you,” Zayn said tiredly, speaking for the first time yet never looking up from his phone.

“Zayn!” Lou yelled. “You ruined it! You ruined it for me! It was supposed to be a surprise and you ruined it!” He fake cried into one of the pillows.

Liam stood up quickly, ushering the rest of the boys out of the room. “I think we should give them some privacy. Don’t you, Nialler?”

Niall looked around, a little bit lost before perking up and understanding what was going on. “Oh! Yeah, you’re right, Liam. We should give them some privacy! Brilliant idea!”

“I’ll be downstairs when you’re ready to go, alright, love?”

I nodded my head and they left, closing the door behind them. We stayed silent for a while, neither of us not knowing what to say. I swung my legs absently the way I did when I was younger.

“Sooooo,” Harry said suddenly, breaking the silence.

I looked up at him and gave a half smile. “Sooo?”

He let out an awkward laugh before dragging his hands through his curls. “What do you think Liam has planned for your ‘date’?” He actually made air quotes around it.

I rolled my eyes and continued to swing my legs. “Well, its Liam. So it’ll probably have to do with giving back to other people.”

“True,” he replied with a laugh. “So, I guess we should stop avoiding it. Unless you want to avoid it for a little bit longer. You know, just in case.”

I cocked my head to the side and could feel my eyebrows drawing together. “In case of what?”

“In case one of us doesn’t feel the same,” he said softly, looking quickly away.

 I sighed heavily and turned to look at him head on. “Is that what you’re worried about, Harry? That I don’t fancy you?”

He looked up at me with a raised eyebrow. “Is this the part where you tell me you’re madly in love with me and have been ever since the time you saw me in the audience during Alice In Wonderland?” he asked with a cheeky smile.

“No,” I snapped as I felt my cheeks burn profusely. I hadn’t even known he went to see the show until he told me! “It’s just that…we’re young, you know? So why not? What do we really have to lose? And like you said last night, we might as well be fucked up together.”

He rolled his eyes. “I didn’t mean it literally. That would’ve been the worst advice ever. I’m broken, Coryn. And it’s going to take me a while to put myself back together enough to even consider dating someone.”

I could feel a little part of my heart chip away. He was right, of course. He was still in love with Mia, who, personally, never was actually the right for him. Which, I guess, was true. She only used him for his fame. And me? How could I possibly love someone if I didn’t love myself? It was impossible.

“Fine,” I said, heaving myself off of the couch. “But you still owe me a date. You did lose that bet, you know.”

He smiled at me brightly, standing up as well. He pulled me in close for hug. “I’ll never be good enough for you,” he mumbled in my ear.

I felt a chill run down my spine as I pulled back quickly and patted his cheek adoringly. “You’re probably right,” I replied with a wink before turning and leaving the room.

Like I saiddd, really shorttt. I'm sorry guys!! I really am! I still love you though! xX Em ♥
