Chapter Twenty-One
Harry was coming over for dinner, I guess to celebrate our one week anniversary.
I don't really care much about one week, two week, three week, but more about the months and years. I told Harry that we didn't need to do anything but he insisted that we have dinner at my house with everyone. He claimed that Niall, and the rest of the boys, but mostly Niall, also just loved my mother's cooking.
It's been great finally being official with Harry, sure I get heaps of twitter hate and paps following me everywhere, but I do have the amazing honour of sharing their fans and being apart of One Direction.
We're able to finally be together and its just what I've been waiting for. Who knew, after years of being seas apart that fate would bring us back in the way that it did!
Life sure threw a lot at us, but now we're in the spot that we needed to be in most.
A spot in life where we were together, and happy. Which we are.
"Lily, you better not be nude when the boys get here!" My mom shouted, muffling a laugh, from the kitchen downstairs.
"I'm pretty sure that they'd be fine with that mom" I joked back, only for her to yell back "Just get changed before I force you to!"
I changed into a simple grey Mayday Parade sweatshirt and light wash jeans. I went with a pair of white socks and slid into the kitchen like a ninja.
My mom laughed "You are such a child" as she shook her head sarcastically.
"I am very young at heart" I told her.
She only laughed and shook her head again as she put the chicken in the oven. "Dinner will be ready in a few hours, when are the boys coming?" She asked.
I shrugged, "Who knows. Maybe Zayn is doing his hair still, or maybe they're all sleeping. Or maybe Niall ate everything, including the hotel room. Or maybe Harry's hair got too large and sufficated them all-"
A fit of banging and yells of "Little Lily, Little Lily, let us in!" came from the front door.
I rolled my eyes and laughed. These boys... Are special....
I opened the door to be squashed by five boys in a large, bear hug.
"Nice to see you guys too. We never hug like this, whats the big occasion?" I joked. I love their big, death hugs
They glanced at each other at different times but all their gazes returned to Harry, who swallowed hard and spoke "I just wanted to see my beautiful girlfriend to celebrate our first week together"
The way he spoke was off. It may have been the same kind of sweet words that always left his lips, but his facial expression, his tone, didn't match the happiness that the sentence should have contained. It almost sounded.... Sad. And secretive. Like he was scared to say the wrong thing or scared something would slip out.
I shrugged it off and we settled down for a game of 'Call Of Duty' so my mom didn't have to deal with Niall going back and forth from whatever we would do to the kitchen to "taste test" the food. And by taste test, I mean eating it all and then coming back to tell us how great it was.
"Time to kick some butt" Zayn smirked as he picked up the controller.
"Time to get your butt kicked" I winked before sitting down on the floor with my controller.
~*~
"NO NO NO NO- UGH!" Louis shouted and threw his controller across the room as I blasted his player's head to bits.
"Ha! The Tommo is done for!" Liam's eyes widen at Louis' before he burst into fits of laughter, laughing and rocking back and forth on his bottom on the floor.
"Nice job Lily!" Niall exclaimed quickly as he high fived me.
"Thanks Nialler" I smiled before getting back into the game.
Louis stood up with a pout. "I don't want to play anymore" He whined.
"Why? Cause I kicked your English McMuffins?" I joked.
We all laughed and decided to turn off the game and we all agreed on going up to my room.
"Let us have a pillow fight?" Zayn asked, grabbing a large pillow from my bed and bowing like the people in karate classes do before they compete against another person.
"Nahh, I'll pass" I said, flopping into my purple bean bag chair.
"Cmon Liam, I can take ya" Zayn said bouncing on his heels while waving the pillow back and forth.
Liam shook his head "I think I'll just sit down with Lily-"
Too late. The boys had him pinned to the floor and Zayn was beating Liam with a pillow.
I rolled my eyes at the four boy children.
Four. Where was Harry?
"Hey guys?" I said causing them to freeze in their actions. I laughed slighty, Liam was on the floor, his face pinned down by Niall and Louis pinning his body to the ground as Zayn held the pillow in the air, ready to hit Liam again.
"Yeah?" They said in unison with clueless faces.
"Where's Harry?" I asked.
They looked at each other before shrugging "Maybe he's still downstair?" Liam said, his lips half pressed against the floor and his words muffled slightly.
I nodded before walking out of my room, the mumbling voices getting softer and softer as I walked down the hall and down the stairs.
"I think you should just tell her" I heard my mom say, her voice almost covered by the sound of whatever she was chopping.
I peered into the kitchen to see Harry running his fingers through his curls in frustration "I don't want to hurt her"
Hurt me. Is he planning to break up with me?
"The longer you wait... The more it'll hurt Harry. She'll be upset that you kept it a secret" My mom did this "Mom face". Kind of like a "I'm telling you, listen to me" kind of face.
Harry bit his lip, the things that boy does to me, and thought for a moment.
"What are you doing?" Liam asked, startling me. I jumped and turned and hit his arm "Liam! You scared me."
Liam smiled and shrugged "Whats wrong love?"
"I think Harry is going to break up with me..." I mumbled, too quiet for him to hear.
"Sorry, didn't quite catch that" He said, bending down so his ear could meet my lips, not touching, just I could repeat myself and so he could hear me.
"I think Harry wants to break up with me" I choked on my whisper.
Liam pulled away and looked into my eyes "He wouldn't"
I frowned "How would you know? I just heard his and my mom's conversation Liam. He's going to break up with me"
Liam shook his head "He isn't going to anytime soon, Lily. He really likes you. He really does. Maybe you didn't hear him right"
I shook my head "He has something to tell me and he's going to hurt my feelings."
Liam's lips formed a "O" shape and he shook his head.
"What?" I asked.
Liam shook his head "Harry just has to tell you something"
"He's dumping me. Oh my god" I panicked.
"If he breaks up with you, I'll shave my head" Liam told me, "And I love my hair. Deal?" He said running his fingers through his slightly curly hair, pretending to be a model. (Yes, Liam still has hair at the moment)
I laughed "Okay, I trust you. Deal."
~*~ The next day
I turned on the gossip channel.
"One Direction's Liam Payne shaves his head!" The gossip reporter exclaimed.
I smiled sadly "A deal is a deal"
