Give Me Time

Chapter 8

Last night, Zayn, Niall and Liam crashed on the sofas so I decided to let them sleep, Louis and Harry ended up taking one of the other rooms on the suite.

Harry. He's been all I've been thinking about since last night. One minute he's so gentle and the next, he hates talking to me. I don't know what to think about him anymore.

"Meranda? You alright?" Liam asked as he shoved a muffin into his mouth.

It was about 10 in the morning and we were all having breakfast. Room service was the best bet. My mom and Annie had decided to go meet an old friend for the day so I could hang out with the boys. I hadn't eaten at all since the events of yesterday kept playing in my mind. My foot, harry carrying me, holding on to him, his lips inches away from me. Everything

"You haven't eaten anything at all, are you alright" Liam spoke again, worried looking this time

I looked up and smiled "Thanks Liam, I'm perfectly fine. Just not in the mood to eat"

Liam smiled back back but I could see the worry behind them. It's good I didn't tell him about my foot. I've been trying to hide the band-aid, wearing socks all morning and trying not to walk in front of all of them. It's quite difficult.

I looked around again to notice, Harry was not there. As per usual.

In about 5 more minutes, everyone was done with breakfast and shifted over to the couch. My foot is killing me and the painkillers are in the other room.

If I'm going to get them, I have to walk through the boys and if they see me struggling, They'll obviously ask and it won't turn out well.

My best bet is to walk behind the boys to get into my bedroom without them noticing.

"Meranda, do you wanna watch a movie before we leave" asked Zayn from across the room

I gave him a smile "yeah sure, but where are we going?"

"Just walking around the city and finishing up some band work. You get to come!" Answered Louis while going through the movies we had

Oh great, more walking. I gave them a warm smile "you guys start the movie, I need to get something from my room. And I'll be right there"

"Bring harry with you!" Liam shouted

Ughh

I murmured an okay and stood up. The boys started the movie and they were looking towards the Tv, I can get through easily behind them.

Pain shot up my leg with each step I took but tried not to make any noise, this is worse that I thought it would be. I was halfway across the room when Harry appeared at the corridor.

He looked up at me and then around the room. I stopped not wanting him to see me struggle as I walked and his eyes still rested on mine.

Quietly he walked up to me and held out his hand. He made a small gesture to take it and I did.

He put his other around my shoulder and walked me into my room without saying a word. Once we were in my room, I sat down and he sat across from me.

"Does it hurt that bad?" He asked

I shrugged in reply and reached for my painkillers. they were out of my reach.

Harry stood up and gave them to me also pouring me a glass of water.

"Thanks" I smiled at him and took the pill. He gave me a small smile and sat down in front of me.

"Look if it hurts that bad, I can convince the boys to take a day in."
