**Harry's P.O.V.**
We are all staring at her. She looked up and slowly stood. No one spoke.
Dayyyuuuuummmmmm
Her voice- it was like magic. Calming, soothing, beautiful.
"I didn't think it was that bad." she huffed, looking at her feet.
"Love," I blurted without thinking, "It was...wow." was all i could seem to get out. Her head snapped up and she gave me a small smile and blushed. It was cute.
The boys slowly snapped out of it and began to nod in agreement.
"How long have you been able to do that?" Louis asked, with a face I can describe as only adoration. I frowned. She's mine, I thought automatically. But she wasn't mine. I pushed the feeling away.
" I don't know...I guess for a while-" she's vt off by the intercom:
"Attention guests, this is your all clear. You are now permitted to move about. Thank you for staying at the Waldorf-Astoria."
Liam's cell phone rang. He spoke for a moment, then hung up, half smiling, half grimancing.
"One victim. They got him though, On the bright side, they're getting to thoose in elevators now, But we're in the elevator on the furthest side of the room, which means we've got a while to wait. But at least she's safe," he informed us, glancing at Vanessa who looks like she's going to faint in relief. She hugged Zayn.
While we waited, we looked for ways out, but soon found there weren't any. Louis finally brought up our earlier conversation.
"So Vanessa, what were you saying earlier?" She smiled, then looked up and shrugged.
"I dunno. It was just something Bella and I did. Sing. I've never really sung infront of anyone before. I'm not very good." we collectively gasped.
"Vanessa." I said softly, looking into her eyes. "You havr to know, your voice-it's really different. It's beautiful. Like you" I added the last part with a wink and she blushed furously.
The boys nodded slowly in agreement. Liam chuckled to himself. "Now I get why she didn't want us to sing" She smiled and shrugged mysteriously. She had a beautiful smile. I shook my head. you just met me. stop acting like you're together.
"Vanessa?" Niall asked. She looked over at him, whowas hunched in the corner, rocking back and forth. I facepalmed. I forgot Niall is extremely claustrophobic. He might have a panic attack. the boys and I exchanged worried glances.
"Hm?" Vanessa murmured, blissfully unaware.
"Do you think you could sing again? I'm not really a fan of tight spaces, but your voice calms me." Niall pleaded. Her face creased with worry and she goes and sits next to him, putting and arm around him. I flinched.
"Sure Niall, anything for you. What'd ya like?" she offered with a playful grin. I was stricken with a sudden pang of jealousy, surprinsing myself. I pushed it away.
"Anything just sing again." Niall leaned his head into her hair. She frowned and gently patted his back. The res of us sat down as well, so that we were facing the two of them. we remained silent.
"Okay..." She said quietly after a moment. Then she began, I smiled at her song choice. Love me tender- my favorite Elvis Presley song, I closed my eyes and listened
Love me tender, love me sweet...
Once she finished, we saw that Niall had fallen asleep on her shoulder. She chckled and let him stay there. She was so...motherly.
She started to sing again, this time it was safe & sound by Taylor Swift. We all closed our eyes once more and let ourselves slip away.
I remeber tears streaming down youe face...
She finished and this time we look up to see that Zayn has fallen asleep as well. Louis crawled over and layed in his head in her lap. She laughed and let him stay as well, playing with his hair, stroking his arms. He fell asleep as well. My stomach twisted around and I can't look anymore.
chill. I laid my head in Zayn's lap and closed my eyes. Vanessa and Liam started talking.
"You seem really comfortable with them" Liam murmured, and I can hear the smile in his voice. She laughed
"I babysit a lot. I'm used to kids. They're just like a larger version of them." Liam chuckled.
"So what's the deal with Harry?" she questioned suddenly. My ears perked up.
"What deal?" Liam asked with a smirk in his tone.
"Is he always flirting with girls like that?" she elaborated.
"Yeah pretty much. He's the 'flirt' of the group." Liam replied. I wanted to punch him. she'll never go for me now.
"Oh, well that's good,I guess." she trails off "I've never been a 'wild girl' my mom is very strict. No make-up, no heels." She wasn't wearing make-up. She was pretty without it.
"You don't need that stuff" Liam said, and I practically hear her blush.
"Thanks" she said in a whisper. "Tell me about you guys. I know about your music, but that's about it. I feel as like you guys are a much bigger deal than you appear to be."
"Well we've been lucky...let's just say most girls aren't as calm as you are with us, which is why I think we all like you so much. Especially Harry."
"I thought you said Harry was a flirt"
"Oh he is, but he's different around you. I think he might actually fancy you." I resisted the urge to open my eyes and look at her expression.
"Huh?" Is all she answered with. What kind of answer was that?!?!?! I screamed mentally.
"Don't get me wrong," Liam covered. "He's a brilliant guy and even better boyfriend, It's just hard to date for us because of our crazy schedules.
"You sound like you speak from experience" she replied
"Louis and I have girlfriends"
"huh...I think I'm going to sleep if you don't mind?"
"Not at all, one more song maybe?" Liam pleaded. She thought about it and ultimately agreed. I strained my ears to hear her softly sing the first verse to Lego house my favorite Ed Sheeran song.
"I'm gonna pick up the pieces, and build a lego house..."
And with that, I drifted off to sleep, her voice filling the room.
