I woke up early to the sweet smell of...pancakes?!
I quickly jumped out of bed and skipped to my rather large bathroom and brushed my teeth, along with washing my face.
I walked into the empty hallway and looked at the clock on the wall. 9:00am?!
Wow... there must be something wrong with me because I am not a morning person, whatsoever.
I remained contained in my thoughts. As I hopped down the steps of the stairs, I heard hushed voices and then a girly giggle erupt.
I walked to the kitchen door and opened it slyly. I poked my head inside and immediately I wished I hadn't. Spying is bad but if they don't catch you then it's alright, right?
Louis and Eleanor were doing some sort of Lovey-Dovey mushy couple shit. She was giggling while he was trying to kiss her, as she was making those precious pancakes.
Suddenly, I heard a voice by my ear.
"Babe, are you spying?" A voice that was smooth like silk whispered tauntingly.
I swivelled my head around and was about to say some smart-ass response, but I stopped abruptly.
Harry's face was at a very close proximity to mine. Our eyes managed to catch each other's and I felt like I was searching. For what? I really don't know.
A rather high-pitched yelp snapped us out of our trance.
"Oh my God! Hi, Jade and Harry and... Niall! " Eleanor said quickly, in a panicked voice. She squirmed out of Louis's death grip. Both of their cheeks now a rosy colour.
I hadn't realized that Niall was in the room also. I turned around and saw Niall walking towards the doorway. He sleepily rubbed his eyes and his bed-hair was prominent. Thankfully, I don't think he saw anything!
"I made you guys pancakes!" She continued nervously.
"Pancakes?!" Niall and I screamed in perfect synchronization.
We struggled to get past the door frame at the same time. After managing to get through at the door at the same time, we landed on the floor with a thud.
I was sitting on Niall so I got a head start to the pancakes. Niall cried out from where he was, as I licked the fourth one, marking my territory.
"What?! No! Jade, that's not fair!"
"Guys, calm your asses! I am making more! " Eleanor and Louis stared at us with blank expressions. They let a chuckle and turned back around.
"Strange kids," I heard Louis mumble.
"Where are the others at?" Niall questioned.
"Zayn is still sleeping, Liam and Sophia went to the grocery store to buy more food. Harry was at the door a few moments ago... I don't know where Harry and Ashley are..." Eleanor replied, trailing off at the end.
When I heard that, I felt that something wasn't right immediately. I quickly finished up my pancakes and washed my dish. I gave Eleanor a quick 'thank you' hug and bolted out of the kitchen.
"You don't want anymore?" Eleanor called after me.
"No, thank you Eleanor!" I replied. I ran with Niall following close behind.
After grabbing ahold of the door handle, I swung open the door. My jaw dropped at the sight in front of me.
Harry was sitting on the loveseat with Ashley sitting across from him. They reached into the packet and I let out a shrill scream. Ashley and Harry immediately looked over at me, while Niall covered his ears. Louis and Eleanor ran to where I was standing.
"Jade?! Are you alright? Did you get hurt?" Eleanor bombarded me with questions the second they stepped foot into the lounge.
"Dude! I told you we shouldn't have done that!" Ashley hissed at Harry. He shrugged in response.
He just shrugged. He fucking shrugged! While everyone started to talk, I was thinking of ways to cut off Harry's hair with a razor.
I ran over to the table and picked up my pack of Oreos and cradled it, like a child.
My eyes flashed up to Ashley and Harry; guilty looks plastered all over their faces.
Louis and Eleanor looked scared to death while Niall was perfectly fine, recovered from my scream. Harry and Ashley had mixed expressions of horror and guilt.
"Hello! We're home! Wait- what's burning?" Sophia's sweet voice rang into the lounge.
"Shit! My pancakes!" Eleanor face palmed. Her and Louis ran for the kitchen while I advanced menacingly on Harry and Ashley.
"Did you seriously touch my babies?" I whispered, almost heartbroken.
They apologized continuously and gave me a hug. Fuck, hugs are irresistible! Finally, we left the room to join the others.
*One hour later*
We all sat in the lounge as Liam and Sophia were lecturing us about leaving the kitchen unattended and a new rule of no touching my oreos. I smirked evilly... I always get victory.
Even though Liam and Sophia are seemingly more mature, I concluded that they're pretty insane too. They are just slightly responsible, unlike the rest of us.
"And also be caref- Wait...where's Zayn?" Liam questioned.
"Oh last time I saw, him he was sleeping." Eleanor mused.
"Eleanor! You stalker!" I gasped.
"Excuse me! I went to call him for breakfast but he was sleeping so I left." El rebutted as there was a mild laughter.
"Well someone has to wake him up!" I laughed.
Harry got up. I took advantage of the situation and jumped onto his back immediately.
"Go! Move, peasant! Move!" I yelled.
"Jade.... I got up cause I need to take a wee..." Harry admitted.
Everyone laughed.
"Well, not anymore! Go to Zayn's room!"
"Oh alright! I will go take a wee later!" We left the room, still talking about Harry needing to take a fucking wee.
He bounced up the stairs, with me on his back. Everything was going perfectly fine until Stupid Harry decided to trip on the last step of the stairs. It was very blurred. I sailed forward and hit my head on the hardwood floor. After groaning and mumbling profanities, I noticed something rather heavy landed on me but I was in too much pain to open my eyes.
I recovered slowly and opened my eyes to see that Harry basically had his fat arse on my stomach.
"Whoops!" He smiled innocently and offered a hand after standing up. I took it and stood up, brushing off imaginary dust.
When I finally dusted off the imaginary dust, I looked at Harry.
Our hands didn't let go. My brain was telling me 'Let go now! He probably thinks you are a creep, Jade!' but my heart was telling me 'Don't let go!'
I stared into those hypnotizing green eyes, that he was well known for, as he stared into my ordinary chocolate brown ones. We seemed to be really close, our faces only centimetres apart.
"Harry? Jade? Are you guys okay?" Niall's cute voice rang up the stairs.
"Uh... Yeah! I just tripped but we're okay!" Harry replied, his ears tinting red.
Our eyes and hands broke contact as I felt the blush rise onto the surface of my cheeks. Cue the awkward silence.
"Um... let's go?" I questioned. Harry nodded and followed me down the hallway.
I stopped at Zayn's bedroom door and ninja-kicked it open. I swear I'm way too hyper today!
This made all of the awkwardness between us, fade away. I ninja-rolled into the room and nodded at Harry to open the curtains.
Zayn groaned. I climbed onto his bed and started jumping, with Harry joining shortly after. We jumped on for what felt like forever, but there was no response form the passed-out Zayn. I got up and stood beside Harry, beside the doorway.
"Hey Harr- OMG IS THAT PERRIE I SEE?" I yelled. Harry looked over at the door I was pointing at and smirked, he knew what I was doing.
"Perrie?" Zayn's head shot up as he looked for his girlfriend.
Only then did I notice that he was shirtless. Mind you, Zayn has fine abs.
I think I was staring on for too long because Harry nudged me, chuckling slightly, Zayn still not noticing I was staring at him. I blushed and switched my eyes to Zayn's face. He was still looking furiously around the bedroom.
"Mate, she's not actually here... we did that to wake you up. It's already 2 in the afternoon!" Harry stated.
Zayn huffed and walked over to us, not showing any emotion. He stood in front of Harry and I. He raised his hand really quick.
At that very moment, memories of Ryan flooded back to me. How he would hit me when he was drunk or how he would play sweet, just to trap me. I waited for the smacking impact but it never came. I realized that I was hugging someone and my eyes were sealed shut. I slowly opened my eyes.
Zayn looked at me with a confused and worried look on his face, along with a 'sorry' look. Harry had a worried look plastered on his face. I realized I was hugging Harry and he had his arm around me in a protective way.
"Jade?! What happened? I was just stretching...did I scare you? Oh God, are you crying?" Zayn asked all at once.
I quickly wiped my tears and left the bedroom. I can't tell them about Ryan, my abusive past. Only Ashley knows about him and I'm going to leave it that way. Plus, I don't even know these boys well enough yet.
I fixed my appearance and rushed downstairs (after wiping my eyes a million times) and joined the others. As far as I know these boys, they will try to find out what had happened. I have to stay away from them as much as I can.
I ignored Harry and Zayn's stares for the rest of the night and I acted like nothing had happened. Whenever I would catch Zayn's eye, he would send me and apologetic look. It's not his fault, although he feels like that.
I am sorry Zayn and Harry, you guys are going to have to live with it.
