Love Me [Harry Styles]

23.

"Don't make me make you fall in love.."

Dani's POV

"D-Dani," Harry said, looking only in my direction. His voice was hoarse and low, a bit intimidating.

"Harry," I reciprocated, nodding at him. I watched as he nervously bit his lip, his fingers fumbling with the hem of his shirt.

"Zayn you should probably head back there, mate, shows in 10," Harry said as he looked away from me.

"Ah shit yeah thanks man, see you after the show D, looking good," Zayn winked as he kissed my cheek and continued to walk out the door while Harry stood there, his gaze his never leaving mine.

"You should get back there too," I whispered, getting ready to walk off with my checklist.

"Wait, Dani," he said as I tried walking past him. Attempting to grip my arm, I flinched at his touch, immediately regretting it once I saw disappointment flood in his features.

He removed his arm and placed them both behind his back, almost as a way to keep himself from coming any closer to me.

"Yes?" I pressed, avoiding his gaze as he tilted his head, desperately trying to get me to look into his eyes.

"Can you just talk to me for a second at least? Damn it Dani, I've been trying to reach you for a week and a head nod is all I get?" He asked, getting angrier with each word. He deserved this, though. Or at least that's what I kept telling myself.

"We have nothing to talk about if it's not about you and the boys together, Harry." I firmly stated, holding my ground.

His face softened as he pouted, "You promised you'd be there at the end of the night. My bed was empty when I came back Dani, you didn't even answer my calls or-"

I laughed, "Yeah, and you didn't tell me you'd be out with some model. We're even now, though, right?" I smirked up at him as I tried to swallow back the tears threatening to leave my eyes.

His jaw dropped as he frowned, "Is that what this is about? Dani I-I," He looked down, unable to find the words to complete his mediocre statement.

I scoffed at how he couldn't defend himself. My assumptions were right after all.

"Just own up to it, it doesn't matter anymore."

"No, Dani, it's just that- Well, I don't mean to, t-that shouldn't affect us," his voice full of desperation.

"Oh what?" I asked, walking closer to him, "Is she not enough?" I whispered into his ear, my voice dangerously small.

"I know you've fucked her," I continued, watching as he cringed at my words, "and I also know I've fucked you better," I finished off. Stepping back, our eyes met each others once more.

"From here on, that chapter is over though. You've obviously found someone you're not ashamed of being around. Have a great time with your Barbie doll, darling," I chirped, walking away before he could say anything else.

----------

I felt a pair of strong arms nudge my shoulder as I opened my eyes. Evidently, I'd fallen asleep while the boys were on.

"Wake up Daniii," Calum chirped in my ear.

I lazily smiled at him and placed my head on his sweaty shoulder as his arm wrapped around me.

"Hi, how was your show," I asked, closing my eyes against him once more.

"The 1D boys are on now, but ours? Pretty boring I guess, considering you fell asleep," he teased.

"Sorry," I giggled, "I've been in bed practically all week Cal cut me some slack."

"I know babe, here use this rough pillow, I'll be right back I'm gonna shower," he said handing me the decorative pillow.

"Mmkay," I said as I rested against the uncomfortable material, hugging it.

He chuckled at my childlike behavior and left to shower. 15 minutes later I found myself being woken up yet again.

"Hey you smell good," I grumbled.

"That's what happens after you shower," Calum mocked, kissing my cheek.

"Shhh, let me sleep," I said as he wrapped his arm against me. He rubbed up and down my arm, calming me down.

"Calum, what the fuck?"

I opened my eyes to a angry Harry looking at Calum, his jaw clenched.

"What bro?" He asked dumbfounded. I shifted in my spot and threw my head back onto the couch, not wanting to hear any of what was about to go down.

"N-nothing, I just didn't know you and Dani were a thing."

My eyes widened as I lifted my head to look at Harry, "Calum and I aren't a thing, we're just friends," I defended.

"Yeah friends cuddle too, right Harry?" Calum winked at him. Now I'm confused.

"Oh, yeah I guess so."

"Hey, we're all going to a late dinner do you guys want to come?" Louis interrupted.

We all nodded in agreement as I left Calum's grip to go freshen up.

--------

"Oh my god I can't believe you still remember that!" Sophia said as we both bursted into laughter at the memory of her running naked down the hotel room.

We arrived at dinner half an hour ago, our food had even arrived. Us as in Louis, Eleanor, Liam, Sophia, Niall, and me. Calum ended up ditching for some party and Zayn had other plans. Harry? I guess he was just running late.

"Let's not forget when Louis went skinny dipping with Zayn at 4 am," Niall said clutching his stomach from laughter.

The table went silent once we saw Harry come into view, except he didn't come alone.

"Sorry, guys we were a little busy," Harry said. His gaze met mine, an apologetic look on his face, but I dropped it immediately, disgusted at his casual stance.

My smile faltered as I noticed his hair was messy, cheeks tinted, and obvious purple marks all over his neck.

"Baby, you forgot to button up the rest of your shirt," a blonde chirped, reaching down to his chest and trying to fix it, but failing miserably as she bit her lip and winked at him.

Instead, I decided to smile at her. Her soft curls fell perfectly over her shoulders. A sparkly top that revealed her nonexistent chest, and high waisted jeans. I huffed to myself, guess Harry doesn't have much to grab. The definition of a perfect model. I couldn't deny she was beautiful, though. Her blue eyes sparkles, her breathtaking slim frame, her perfect posture.

"Guys this is Gigi, my girlfriend."
