Let's Pretend it's Love

Chapter 10- Dance With Me

**MARY'S POV**

Harry. I kissed Harry.

I look up only to find all the boys are staring at me. Well, this is fun!

"What the hell was that?!" Luke whines.

"Um..." Liam is just in shock.

"Plot twist much?" Beau winks at me.

"Well I don't know about you guys, but I'm pretty sure that was the best kiss of my life." Harry winked.

I said nothing, I just started choking on my own spit.

Luke moved closer to whisper in my ear, "Karma's a bitch, but I still love how you're playing hard to get for me." 

Little fucker, I don't think he realizes how much I love him. 

"I need to get some air." I choke out before running out of the club. I coud feel the Claustrophobia buiding up inside my stomach.

I shove open the door only to find myself hitting some guy with the door. Really. Hard.

"FUCK! Ow! That hurt! Watch where you're swinging your doors!" 

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry, I'm just a little frantic and stressed right now!" Was I really starting to cry?

"Awh Love! Don't cry! I didn't mean to yell at you!" I look up to see who this man is. Who is it? Oh I dont know, Tom FUCKING Daley. I love being friends with hot famous people who are friends with other hot famous people!

"Are you the birthday girl, Hannah?"

"No, I'm not. I'm her bestfriend, Mary!" He smiled.

"Mary eh? So YOU'RE the girl the boys never shut up about?" Excuse me? 

"Well, I don't know!" 

"Oh don't worry, they only say good things about you!" Oh phew.

"Well that's good to know Tom!"

"Liam really likes you Mary, I dont know if you know that or what, but please don't break his heart. He wouldn't be the same." So one thing I have realized in the past 4 days, Liam Payne has fallen in love with me and I'm too fucking stupid to actually do something about it. I am certainly the dumbest blonde out there, that's for sure.

"Well, I'm going to go say hi to the mates, see you later I guess!" Tom spoke, breaking my train of self pity thoughts.

I lean on wall and take a deep breath. How could I be so stupid? These boys have girls literally throwing themselves at them, and 2 of them like me. Me. A nobody. 

Just then, my phone starts BLOWING up with messages on twitter.

iLuv1D567: You don't deserve Harry! You're too ugly for him!

1Directionrules83: GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY BOYFRIEND YOU SLUT!

MrsJamiePayne: Go die you skank.

These girls are fucking crazy. 

1DUpdates: This just in! Harry shared his midnght kiss with @getyourmaryon ! The two have been confirmed to be getting cozy with each other these past couple days! 

Well today just keeps getting better and better! Bring on the death threats!

Harry_Styles: Just to clear up the rumors! @getyourmaryon and I not dating, it was just a New Year's kiss! No big deal! Don't send that beaut hate!

How cute, Harry is defending me!

Real_Liam_Payne: @Harry_Styles backkk offffff mateeeee!!!!!!

I feel the blood rush to my cheeks, just like the good old days, every time Liam tweeted, I would blush, but this time, I'm blushing because it's about me. He's talking about me to over 6 million fans.

**HARRY'S POV**

"Hey! Mary! It's freezing out here! Come inside dumbass!" I yelled out to Mary, "What are you even doing? It's New Year's, your best friend's birthday, and it's bloody cold! And you're sitting out here on your phone?"

I take off my jacket and wrap it around her shoulders. She makes eye contact with me, I can see the tears buidling up in the corners of her eyes.

"They're so cruel. So hateful. How can they say some of those things?" I assumed she was talking about the fans.

"Hey! Look at me. Mary, you're BEAUTIFUL. They are all jealous of you. You kissed THE Harry Styles! Liam Payne is madly in love with you! You have everything they want." I pull her into a hug, wrapping my arms around her waist and picking her up so our eyes are on the same level.

"The sad part is, that I used to be one of those jealous girls. I used to cry over you boys. My grades went down the drain because of you boys, you guys took over my life. Now I know how it feels, it hurts, It hurts more than when Luke cheated on me. It's sad to know how many cruel people are out there." She rested her head on my shoulder.

"I promise, you get used to it. They can only do SO much though twitter. They'll get over it, I'll kiss some other girl to make them go away?" That made her smile.

"You, Harry Styles, are a hoe!" She was now laughing, damn I'm good.

"Ready to go back and party?" I offer her my hand.

"Bring. It. On." She takes my hand and we walk back into Pulse.

"MARY! Where were you? I see you were on twitter!" Liam engulfs her into a hug.

"BABE! I missed you!" Luke shouted from the bar.

"Welome back, bud!" Beau elbowed Mary. Were we really gone that long or is everyone just hammered?

"Let's Dance." Mary commanded.

We all did just that, we danced.
