Moments (A One Direction Fanfic) NOT FINISHED

Chapter 3

(LIAM'S POV)

Emily's legs had all these bruises on her. All different shapes and colours but all seemed to have come from the same source. I went up and hugged Emily really tight since I haven't seen her in forever.

"It's good to see you Liam." she hugged me tighter. She looked different, and was acting different. 

"It's good to see you too Emily." I whispered back and kissed the top of her head. 

I didn't think it was a good time to ask Em about these marks but introducing her to the lads would be a good idea. 

"Emily, this is Niall, Zayn, Louis and Harry. Guys this is Emily and her mate Carley." I said guiding them all together so they could shake hands. 

They all shook each others hands and kissed one another's cheeks. Niall has seemed to take a liking to Carley already....?

"It's very nice to meet you love." he kissed her hand as well. Carley started blushing insanely. 

"How about we go back to my flat, yeah?" I asked everyone after their introductions. With the nod of everyone's heads we were in the cars and on our way to my place. I made sure that me and Em had a car to ourselves so I could talk to her.

"Hey Em, I'm really glad to see you again. I've missed you a bunch but let me ask you something." I said in almost a whisper which was pointless cause no one else is in the car. Her eyes darted over to me fast and she became very serious with her expression. 

"Why are there so many bruises on your legs?" I asked trying to look her in the eyes but also keep my eyes on the road. 

"Erm.... I fell down the stairs the other day...." she tried avoiding the conversation and I could tell she wasn't being truthful.

"Seriously Emily. Did someone do this to you? Those aren't "I fell down the stairs" kind of marks." I said sternly.  

"No Liam! I fell down stairs, okay?!" Em yelled to me then crossed her arms and stared out the window the rest of the ride home. We were silent until we reached the flat. 

Everyone got out of their cars and headed into my flat to rest. Me and the lads were extremely tired. Jet lag is a bitch.

(EMILY'S POV)

Ugh. Liam is just being annoying. I understand he cares about me and all but seriously he needs to stop. Now he's acting all mad at me cause I yelled at him about something that doesn't concern him one bit. Whatever, he's probably just tired.

Carley and all the others just plopped down in the living room to relax. I noticed Niall resting his head on Carley's shoulder. That's weird but they seem cute together. I also noticed Harry's eyes staying fixated on me constantly. It was like he couldn't look away from me. 

For that reason I decided to get up and ask him. "Not to be rude but why do you keep staring at me?" 

"Oh, erm. Sorry. It's just..." he stopped.

"Just what?" I snapped back sharply.

"You're beautiful." he answered in a whisper with a sheepish tone. I started blushing immediately and his cheeky comment did make me smile... like a lot. Wait. What was I thinking? I'm with Justin and I don't need to be getting caught off guard by this guy's comments. 

"Thanks..." I spoke fast and went to sit back down. 

He kept his eyes on me still but this time it wasn't as bad so I payed no attention. Why did Harry Styles think I'm beautiful? Out of all the girls in the world that are way prettier than me, why me? Didn't really ever get that comment so this was something new, and I guess I won't know until I ask him but that definitely won't happen. I don't want to get involved with another guy and have Justin lash out on me. Especially now that Liam is back I have to try and avoid getting hit at all cost since he is already suspicious. 

"So Li, how was the tour?" Carley chimed in from the silence of the room. 

"It was amazing! We all had so much fun and the American fans are incredible. Such a great experience." he answered with the happiest look on his face. I'm glad he enjoyed his job.

"Yeah, really amazing. Can't wait until our next tour. Maybe you two could come with us?" Niall added.

"That would be amazing!" Carley's face lite up.

"Thanks for the offer but I most likely can't. I couldn't leave my boyfriend Justin." I gave him an answer. After I said that I saw Harry's face frown a little, like he was upset that I used the word "boyfriend". Why would he care? Again, another question I would have to ask him.

"Hey do you guys want to crash here tonight?" Liam asked breaking my train of thought. He still looked at me with a sorta mad look on his face. But Carley went ahead and spoke for the two of us, "That would be lovely!" She was very anxious to be with Niall some more and it was pretty obvious.

I had this feeling in my gut that only something bad or good could come from tonight....
