No one's pov:

"I've got a idea" Beth side to Katie and Leah

"Oh no" Leah laughed,Beth rolled her eyes but carried on with what she was going to say.

"What if we purposely get Harley mad and see how Alessia reacts, if she leaves her be or tries to calm her down?"

"But you know she's hard to calm down" Leah sighed

"She might not be now" Beth shrugged

"Sounds like a good idea" Katie laughed

"Leave me out of it" Leah said walking away

"Right so what we going to do to make her angry?" Katie asked

"Take her stuff and replace it somewhere else and then during training we can just try wind her up by saying random stuff to her" Beth suggested

"Yesssss, right let's start then"

Alessia's pov:

"Who's moved my jumper?" Harls said as she threw her stuff about trying to find it as we all got ready for training.

I looked up from where I was tying my shoes

"Leah 'ave you moved it" Harley said starting to get annoyed

"No no, haven't touched your stuff Harley" Leah said putting her hands up

I walked over to them "Harls are you sure you haven't left it in the canteen or something?" I suggested

"No I remember placing it down in here before coming up for breakfast" Harley said still looking around for it

"Here have my spare one for now and we will find yours after training" Harley nodded while I gave her my spare one

"Ooooo sure you didn't lose it on purpose to get her jumper Harley" Beth said teasingly

"Your not funny Beth"

"Come on let's go outside Harls" I said sensing that she needed to be separated from the group

"Yeah Harls" Beth said mocking my nickname for her

"What you playing at Beth!" Harley snapped

"Beth stop whatever your doing now" Kim stepped in

Harley and I walked out of the changing rooms and went and sat at a bench outside

"I mean what the fuck is she playing at, it's like she's come to training and purposely making it her mission to piss me off today" Harley sighed

"I know it's easier said then done but if you don't reacted to her then she's going to get bored and move on, all she wants is for you to react and then she gets what she wants"

"Your right it's easier said then done" Harley mumbled putting her head in her hands

I got told early on that Harley struggles with her anger quite badly and doesn't know how to control it, she tries to control it but people know how to press her buttons easily.

"Try for me, don't react to her and I promise you she will get bored" I said pushing my shoulder into hers gently

"Right okay I'll try" Harley lifted her head and smiled slightly before standing up and offering her hand to help me up

"We've got training, no?" Harley teased as I was confused

I laughed softly before taking her hand and walking off to training.

——————————————————

"How she doing?" Leah said as we stood next to each other watching Harley

"Yeah she's alright now" I smiled at Leah

"How did she react when you two went out of the changing room"

"She had a moment I won't lie but I made her a promise and she seems to be sticking by it"

"What simple as that? You made a promise and she's sticking by it" Leah said shocked

"Yeah-" we were cut of when we saw Harley shouting at Beth

"Harley! Harley" I said walking over

"Can you just shut your mouth Beth!" Harley said sharply

I pulled Harley away and made her face me

"Harley please calm down" I said looking up at her

She let out a deep breath before looking me in the eyes

"What was our promise" I said softly

"Yeah but she's fucking criticising my performance" Harley said lifting her arm up

I put my hand on her arm and brought it back to her side

"Then tell someone, tell one of the staff so they can sort it out instead of bottling it up and then lashing out"

Harley sighed but nodded

"Come on training is over let's go home"

No one's pov:

"I think she pasted the test" Katie said as she sat down next to Beth

"She definitely did, I've never seen someone calm her down so easily before" Beth said

"Do you recon something might go on between them?" Katie asked

"I hope so, they'd be so cute"

——————————————————

Harleys pov:

"Wanna come to mine tonight?" I asked Alessia as we walked to our cars

"Sure, what we doing?"

"Watch a movie with popcorn?" I suggested

"Okay sounds good, I'll be over at 6?"

——————————————————

"I'm sorry for today, I didn't mean to get so angry" I sighed as we laid on my sofa

"It's okay, we've just got to try find a way to calm you down"

I looked up "we've?"

"Yes harls, you and me find a way to control it"

"Oh okay" I said getting awkward

"I've never had someone like that before" I added

"Really?" Alessia questioned

I shrugged "come 'ere"

Alessia moved over and laid so her head was resting against my chest

"Thank you for today less"

"I didn't do anything" Alessia said confused

"You calmed me down" I said moving so my arms wrapped around her a little more tightly

We carried on watching the movie while laid together

"I can hear your heart beating so fast" Alessia laughed

"I'm nervous" I defended myself laughing

"Don't be, it's just me" Alessia laughed resting her head against my chest again

"Yeah but....
