TASH'S POV

I still couldn't believe I was here. Niall, Zayn, Harry and I were all sat in the living room watching TV. How many people could say that? I checked my phone for a text from Romeo. Nothing. I hadn't spoken to him since our argument over the phone and to be honest I didn't really want to speak to him. I didn't want to even think of him because the more I thought about him, the more the nightmare seemed real. I didn't want to think about who's voice that was when I spoke to him on the phone. I didn't want to think about who he's with right now, it would just make it seem more real.

"Where's Phoebe?" I asked the others, trying to distract myself from my thoughts.

"I think she's a bit occupied"  Niall spoke with slight humor in his voice. I looked at him, slightly puzzled.

"With Ash" Harry added. 

"Oh" I caught onto what they were hinting at. Harry laughed at my confusion. His laugh was so adorable, it made his cheeks seem much more fuller and his dimples deeper. 

I began to hear both Liam's and Louis' voices followed by another unfamiliar voice. I couldn't wait to meet Eleanor, Louis adored her and I couldn't wait to be as close to her as I was with Phoebe. 

"Hey Guys!" She yelled as she walked into the living room. Louis was right, she was absolutely beautiful. She wore a light pink cropped sweater with blue denim jeans. Her outfit was completed with white converses and her hair was teased into a messy bun. The others greeted her and Liam headed to his room.

"So this is Tash, she's with the makeup crew," Louis introduced me to her.

"Hey I'm Eleanor, it's so great you're here. We definitely need more girls in here!" She joked.

"It's amazing to meet me, you look so gorgeous!" I complimented her.

"Thank you so do you" Eleanor hugged me.

Niall and Liam had left now to hang out at Niall's house, Phoebe and Ash were still occupied or whatever and the rest of us were just watching TV.

"Tash I didn't know you would be around today" Louis sat down and placed his hand over Eleanor's knee.

"Yeah me and Harry are going for lunch so I thought I'd just hang out here for a bit" I explained to Louis.

"Oh so you and Harry are together?" Eleanor asked. 

I felt myself immediately pale at Eleanor's words. Harry spat out the water that he was just drinking and broke out into a fit of coughs. Zayn patted him on the back and laughed. We didn't look like a couple did we? Harry must be feeling so embarrassed, his reaction said everything.

"No no we're not! I have a boyfriend" I quickly spoke. I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks as the others looked at me. Where was Phoebe when I needed her?

"I'm so sorry, I just assumed that you guys were together" Eleanor apologized. It wasn't her fault, she had just arrived and we were going to have lunch together.

"It's fine" Harry mumbled once he had recovered from his coughing.

"You've caused enough trouble, come on" Louis kissed Eleanor on the cheek and the pair went off to his room. Zayn also went to his room to Skype Perrie, leaving me and Harry alone.

HARRY'S POV

The others had all gone off to do their own things leaving just me and Tash alone.

"So do you want to go eat?" I asked her. I don't why I felt so nervous but I couldn't think of a single thing to say to her. She looked up at me, nodded and smiled.

"There's this nice restaurant a couple of blocks away if you want to go there or I could order something in." I told her.

"I'm fine with ordering something in" I felt a little more relieved at the fact that I wouldn't have to sit in a car with her for a while. I handed her a menu from the table and we looked over the different meals.

"Hmm how about fish and chips? That is my all time favourite!" She screamed.

"Fish and chips it is then" I laughed at her excitement over something as little as fish and chips. I picked up the phone from the table and dialed for room service. Natasha looked through the desserts as I ordered our lunch to the waiter downstairs. She grabbed my other arm and pointed to the chocolate ice cream with an excited look on her face. She looked just like a kid and it was adorable. I laughed at her excitement and added the ice cream to the order, telling them to bring it up 20 minutes after the fish and chips.

"So tell me about this whole makeup thing?" I asked her and took a seat next to her on the couch.

"Well since I was a little kid I always used to play with my mums makeup and I loved those little kid sets you could get in the pound store and as I got older I stopped smearing lipstick across my forehead and starting looking a little less like a clown," she laughed thinking back to her childhood, "My mum used to get me different palettes and brushes for birthdays and Christmases and now I have quite the collection."

"So you came with Karen right?" I couldn't help but be interested in her childhood life and what got her here.

"Yeah my mum and her are best friends so she offered to bring me along with her and see what a career in makeup could be like."

"Well Karen is the best to learn from" I laughed. The boys and I loved Karen to death, she was so easy to annoy yet she still put up with us, just like a big sister.

The elevator opened interrupting us in our conversation. I realised that the nerves had left me and I felt a lot more comfortable now. A waiter came through the entrance hallway and wheeled a cart with our meals on the top into the living room. I thanked him and he told me that the ice cream would be up soon.

"The food is here!" I sang to her as she got up to take her plate from the tray. She laughed at me and brought the chip to her mouth.

"This has to be some of the best chips I have had ever!" She giggled. I grabbed a plate for myself and squirted some ketchup across my chips. 

"Do you want to eat in my room? Or we can stay here?" I slowly asked her. Who knew how many people would walk through and ruin our lunch. Especially Zayn, he had been annoying me all day about it calling it a date and saying I had a hopeless crush over her. I guess I did in a way but there was no way I would be telling him that. She looked up from her plate, unsure of what to say. What the hell is wrong with me? She has a boyfriend, why the hell would she agree?

"Don't worry about it." I began.

"No it's fine, I'm pretty sure you've got a TV in there, we can just watch a movie or something." She stood from the couch.

"Sure" I replied and led the way to my room.
