The ArgumentA Chapter by Sophiedid I spell argument right? again,sorry about grammar, on my ipad (this whole book will be because i need something to write in school and our school gave us iapds so...)We go a little crazy for the rest of the night. I only remember
snippets of stuff that happened. Someone drank whiskey from someone's
belly button, somehow Zayn ended up with panties on his head, don't ask
me how, it's all a blur of laughter and alcohol.
I blearily blink open my eyes and immediately wish I hadn't. "Oh
dear god." I groan. My head is pounding and pressed against something
hard. I gather up the courage to sit up and I see that I was sleeping on
Louis' elbow, my leg sprawled over Liam's stomach. What happened last
night?
I don't have time to ponder, because I remember that Niall, Harry, Liz, Lydia, and I have school today. Oh joy. "Guys, wake up." I whisper shaking Harry and Niall, "we have school."
"Please don't yell." Niall groans. "Sorry, Hun, but we have to get ready." "Hadley!
It's five in the morning, we've been asleep for two hours, and we could
have two more, why do you wake up at five?" Harry asks, burying his
face in the still unconscious Louis' stomach.
"To get ready?" I say, why else? "At five? For school at seven thirty?!" Harry asks. "Yeah. I have stuff to do. I gotta get my make up on and shower and do my hair and pick out my outfit..."
"Hadley, you're gonna look beautiful no matter what, go back to
sleep." Liam grumbles, waking up slightly. I've been leaning over him to
get Niall awake (who is now snoring again). Liam's arm reaches up and
wraps around my waist, cuddling me to him.
"My alarm is set for six thirty. You'll be fine." He murmurs. He's
so warm, and I'm so cold. I try to snuggle closer. But for that to
happen, we'd be the same person. The last thing I see is Harry's
suddenly alert green eyes boring into mine, but I'm too tired and in
pain to tell him to eff off.
Liam's alarm goes off and I blink open my eyes. My
head is nestled in the crook of his neck and his arm is around me. Liam
doesn't wake up. The bugger. I reach (awkwardly, I might add) into his
pocket and turn off the alarm in his phone. Then the smell of bacon and
omelets hits my nose. I get up and walk into the kitchen of Harry's
apartment, where the curly haired boy flips an omelet onto a plate, he's
only wearing boxers and white a beater.
"Hey, how long have you been up?" I ask, rubbing my eyes. "Since you woke me up at five." He shrugs, handing me a plate with food on it. "Why?" I ask as we go to sit down at the table and start eating.
After a pause he says, "Because I couldn't stand watching you sleep like that, in Liam's arms." I hesitate, "Harry..." I sigh, "you've known me for a little over a week, you can't be so... Attached."
"I'm not attached! I'm just mad that you won't give me a chance,
but you're all lovey dovey with Liam! And let me tell you something.
That kiss last night? That was everything the fairy tales say it should
have been, fireworks, angels singing, earth shattering. And for you to
say it was mediocre is impossible, I know how you were feeling, I know
you had to stifle a moan and that the roots of my hair hurt afterward,
and you didn't notice but all the boys did, your lips were swollen and
dark after and you were panting slightly. Not only does that prove that I
was the better kisser, but it was also freaking sexy," during this long
speech his face has been getting much too close to mine, "and I can see
it in your eyes right now that you are running through what would
happen if you kissed me right now. And I'm just telling you that I'd
kiss you back with everything in me to prove that I should get a fair
chance." I can feel his breath on my cheek and his hand lightly grips my
side.
"Harry, could you honestly tell me right now, that if we were to go
out and stay together until the end of the school year, that when you
go back on tour that you'll ignore the hot dancers or actresses because
of little old me back in her tiny town? Could you honestly tell me that?
The reason I'm honestly not ripping off your clothes right now is
because I don't want to get hurt. I've been hurt too many times and now
I'm more careful. Liam would take it slow, Liam wouldn't be distracted
by actresses with necklines down to their belly buttons, I could be sure
Liam loved me, not just lusted after me." I say.
"I wouldn't hurt you." He tries, his green eyes moving back and forth as he switches which one of my eyes he looks into. I
smile a small, sad smile at him, "I'd love to believe you." I sit down
at the table and start eating my bacon. After a moment, he sits too and
we eat in silence.
"We're going to forget this conversation ever happened, okay?
Everything's going to go back to how it was before Niall's dare." I say
as I put the plate in the dishwasher. "Okay." Harry says.
"You promise?" "Cross my heart." He says tonelessly, and then leaves me stunned in the kitchen. I continue to clean up from our breakfast, everything he said running through my mind at a million mile per second.
"Hadley? What just happened? Why is Harry upset?" Liz asks. "Because I won't admit that his kiss was better." I say. "Was it?" She asks, laughing. "No." I say, though I nod with conviction. She just gives me a questioning look and gets some food.
"I'm going to get some headache pills and get ready for school." I inform her and head upstairs. "What's wrong with Harry?" Niall asks as Harry walks speedily away from me, after I attempted to talk to him.
"Your stupid dare, Niall." I say, though I'm not really angry. "Oh, the kiss one? Yeah, that was on purpose, sorry bout that." He laughs. "Why would you do that?" I ask/yell.
"Because Liam likes you, and he feels like he hasn't got a chance
against Harry, so I played puppet master and had you kiss both of them,
and Liam's kiss was better, so now he feels like he has a chance."
"But the problem is that Harry's kiss really was better! I'm just
too stubborn for my own good and wouldn't give him the satisfaction of
winning." I say, frustrated. "We'll, I hadn't thought of that happening. Well which one do you want to go out with then?"
"I don't even know, Niall, I just don't know." I say as we walk into our next class. Harry's "I'm bored, entertain me" code doesn't come until four o'clock, and that's after I heard the rest of the boys arrive.
We just hang around and talk for a few hours. "Liam has something to ask you!" Louis bursts out. "Lou! Shut up!" Liam says. "what is it?" I ask. "I have to go pee." Harry says, and I think I get an idea of what the question is.
Liam takes a deep breath, wringing his fingers, "Hadles, will you go on a date with me?" "I'd love to." I smile. The door to the bathroom slams right after, but I pretend not to notice.
"Great! So Friday? I'll pick you up at six?" He asks. "Sounds perfect, where are we going?" "I
don't know just yet, I'll text you to tell you, here's my number." He
says, and we exchange numbers. The boys leave and Harry comes out from
the bathroom.
He just looks at me and shakes his head, and I can see in his eyes
he's been replaying the kiss, trying to find the fault I supposedly
found, though not being able to. "Harry..." I try, but he just
holds up a hand and sits down on the couch and turns on the telly. I
sigh and go back upstairs sadly and sit on my bed.
Then I remember I'm going on a date with Liam Payne in two days and I scream and call Liz. After
freaking out for a while on the phone with various friends (even the
friends who hate One Direction), I put on some music. I really hope it's
not weird to be jamming out to their songs when one member lives in my
basement and I have a date planned with another...
"LET'S GO CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY TIL WE SEE THE SUN I KNOW WE'VE ONLY
MET BUT LET'S PRETEND ITS LOVE!" I sing along loudly and badly, though I
don't really care, I'm too happy. I have a date on Friday! Not just a
date, but a date with a famous person!
Oh god, the school is going to murder me. The girls are going to
kill me for going out with Liam, and the boys are gonna kill me for
making their girlfriends cry. Joy, abound. Not. But I don't even care! At least I'll die happy.
