A/N: Okay so I feel like I just updated yesterday but it was actually like a week ago...dang. Okay well I hope you guys like the chapter! I don't really have a long intro Authors Note today but whatever, I'm tired and it's Monday!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I felt electricity shoot through my tired body and he holds the back of my head and I wrap my arms around him and we kiss each other passionately. It felt amazing to be this close to him again. He kept kissing me, he didn’t pull away and neither did I. We eventually needed air so we pulled away and breathed and we smiled at each other. My eyes started to droop and I fell asleep.
-Next morning-
I woke up peacefully and I opened my eyes to see Liam still had his arms around me protectively and was sleeping quietly. God I missed this! I smiled and cuddled back up to him not wanting to wake him and ruin this. I hear the door open slightly and I close my eyes and pretend to be asleep.
Louis: “They’re still sleeping.”
I heard the smile in his voice.
Harry: “They just need to get back together already.”
Niall: “They already act like a couple! Did you see them last night?”
Zayn: “I know! He needs to ask her out again.”
Louis: “They’re so cute.”
Niall: “They are.”
Harry: “Yeah.”
Zayn: “You can tell they love each other, just the way they look at each other.”
Louis: “Yeah.”
I half smiled and had my head against Liam’s chest and they all walked out and closed the door behind them. I looked up at sleeping Liam and frowned. Why won’t he ask me out? I sighed and sat up, his arms falling back to him and I stood up and went into the bathroom. I stared at myself in the mirror not pleased with how I look this morning. I walk back out and Liam is still sleeping, wow he’s a heavy sleeper. I grab some clothes and run back into the bathroom and lock the door and strip down and take a quick shower. I enjoyed it, having the hot water refresh me. I loved showers. I stepped out into the cool air and got dressed and I forgot about blow drying and fish tailed my hair over my shoulder and did my usual makeup and stepped out into the room and Liam was gone. Probably went to get dressed. I yawned and walked out into the kitchen and Louis was the only one in there. It was about twelve and I sat at the table with Louis.
Ali: “Where’s everybody else?”
Louis: “Not sure.”
He wouldn’t look at me.
Ali: “You are sure.”
Louis: “ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR?!”
Ali: “WELL I AIN’T CALLING YOU A TRUTHER!”
Louis: “That hurt!”
He placed his hand over his heart. I giggled.
Ali: “Louis we had a little Drake and Josh moment right there.”
Louis: “YEAH BUDDY!”
He high-fived me and I laughed. I went to the cabinet to look through the food. I forgot about the food and got a glass of orange juice and sat back down.
Ali: “No but really where are they?”
Louis: “That, I cannot tell you.”
Ali: “Why?!”
I whined.
Louis: “Because!”
He mocked me. I crossed my arms and did a puppy face like a little kid.
Ali: “Please tell me?”
I said in the sweetest voice I could.
Louis: “GAH NO STOP IT!”
I smirked.
Ali: “Please Lou?”
I continued doing the puppy eyes.
Louis: “NO! JIMMY PROTESTED!”
Ali: “YES! JIMMY ACCEPTED!”
He ran out of the room and into his and shut the door. I laughed to myself and I went back to my room and grabbed my laptop and went onto Twitter and I saw a bunch of links to Tumblr. I clicked one and saw the picture of Liam and I the person that posted it said I was whoring around with all the boys and just messing with them. What? I was not whoring around. I went back to Twitter and just tried to ignore it but it was everywhere. I loved the Directioners but sometimes they were a little insane. Liam and I were just friends it’s not like we were having sex or something. I was not a whore…
Louis opens my door and I jump and my heart skips a beat.
Ali: “Jesus Louis you scared me!”
Louis: “Whatcha doing?”
Ali: “Twitter.”
Louis grabs my phone and looks at the post
Louis: “What the-?”
Ali: “I don’t know.”
Louis: “That’s stupid!”
Ali: “Yeah.”
Louis: “Don’t listen to them, Eleanor gets hate like that all the time but about twenty times worse because of Larry shippers.”
Ali: “Oh wow…”
Louis: “Yeah, they’re horrid to her.”
Ali: “I’ve seen the hate she gets, it’s really quite ridiculous.”
Louis: “I know.”
Ali: “So what’s up?”
Louis: “You and Liam need to date.”
Ali: “Uh okay?”
Louis: “DO YOU AGREE?”
Ali: “I don’t know…if he wants to…”
Louis: “Come on you guys were so cute this morning! I mean…you guys were cute yesterday…”
Ali: “I know you and the boys watched us sleeping.”
Louis: “HOW!”
Ali: “I was fake sleeping.”
Louis: “Clever, very clever.”
Ali: “Yep I heard every word you guys said.”
Louis: “Great…”
Ali: “I know right!”
Louis: “But I need to hook you two up with each other.”
Ali: “Alright.”
He walks out without saying goodbye and I just sit there. He bursts through the door again.
Louis: “I. HAVE. AN. IDEA!”
Ali: “Well spit it out then!”
Louis: “I can’t tell you!”
Ali: “What? Why not?!”
Louis: “It’s a secret!”
Ali: “Louis!”
I whined. He skipped out of the room. I will never understand him…
Louis’ POV
I skip out of Ali’s room and into the living room where Harry, Niall, and Zayn were and Liam was in his room.
Louis: “Okay we need to plan a date.”
Niall: “For who?”
Louis: “For Liam and Ali?”
Niall: “Oh right.”
Louis: “Anyways we need to make it special, like really cute.”
Harry: “And how are we going to do this…?”
Louis: “Well we need to help Liam plan something.”
Zayn: “What if-“
Louis: “SHUT UP ZAYN!”
Zayn: “Well then…”
I told them my idea and they all agreed and we went to go talk to Liam.
Liam: “Are you sure?”
“YES!”
We all yelled.
Ali’s POV
I heard the boys yelling and I raised my eyebrows, I walked to my door and was about to open it when it flies open and I get hit straight in the face.
Ali: “What the-“
Zayn is standing there trying to contain his laughter.
Ali: “Shut it Zaynie boy.”
Zayn: “Aw come on Ali you love me.”
Ali: “Whatever.”
Zayn: “Okay get dressed into something warm that you won’t be cold in outside.”
Ali: “Ur okay.”
Zayn left and I went into my closet and grabbed a long sleeve shirt, my new white North Face and a pair of jeans and my blue beanie and a pair of my new UGGs. I curled my hair and got dressed and went out to the boys in the living room. I put my phone in my zip up pocket on my jacket.
Ali: “So where are we going?”
Liam: “Come on.”
He grabs my hand and leads me down the stairs and there is a cab waiting for us. It was snowing slightly, something very rare and we arrived at an ice skating place. Outdoor. We got out of the cab and paid the guy and walked up to a counter and paid and picked out some skates. I got a white pair and Liam got black. I had no idea how to ice skate but whatever, I slipped them on and tied them and we both went out onto the white sparkling ice. He grabs my hand and seems to have the hang of it right away but me, I fall straight on my bum and pull Liam down with me. Nobody else was here and we were just sitting there staring at each other. I fixed my beanie and Liam gets up and helps me.
Liam: “Right, left, right.”
He helped me skate and he was going backwards and I he was holding my hands staring at me turning around to see every once in a while. We went in circles for a while-
CIRCLES WE’RE GOING IN CIRCLES DIZZIES ALL IT MAKES US WE KNOW WHERE IT TAKES US WE’VE BEEN BEFORE.
Anyways…
We got off the ice and took off our skates and gave them back and I slipped on my warm and comfy boots and we started walking and I tripped over absolutely nothing.
Liam: “Ali what’d you trip over?”
Ali: “Nothing, because that’s how much skill I have.”
Liam: “Sure.”
He laughs and pulls me up and we interlock fingers and walk towards a restaurant and get a table in the back and order hot chocolate. I sip the hot chocolate and I smile it tastes amazing and right now I felt amazing, with Liam, nothing could ruin this. The door opens and a bell rings and we turn to the door and I see my brother…
My BROTHER?!
Holding hands with a pretty girl…
Wow.
What a sight. I stand up and walk towards him and he looks at me and his eyes widen.
Jacob: “Ali?!”
Ali: “Jacob?”
Jacob: “Oh my god…”
Ali: “I know…”
Liam walks up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist and Jacob raises his eyebrows.
Jacob: “Who’s the boyfriend Ali?”
Ali: “He’s a friend Jacob.”
Jacob: “Mhm.”
I see the pretty girl bite her lip, she recognizes Liam.
Ali: “I’m Ali, Jacob’s sister.”
Kelli: “I’m Kelli.”
Ali: “Nice to meet you.”
Jacob: “How about we all sit down and talk.”
We walk back to a table in the back where Liam and I were sitting earlier.
Ali: “Jacob what happened? You’re all like…not druggy.”
Jacob: “What?”
Ali: “You left Jacob. You left me with dad and let me get hurt. Then whenever you did come back you would just yell at me and dad and you would be all drugged up.”
Tears were forming in my eyes.
Ali: “You abandoned me.”
I could see the pain in Jacob’s eyes.
Jacob: “Ali I needed to get away from that damn house. I loved you so much but I hated dad’s guts, I saw the marks he made on you Ali. I wanted to take you away but I had nowhere to go myself.”
Ali: “I missed you, I missed us playing video games and going on random drives to nowhere and having late night milkshake runs.”
Jacob: “I’m sorry I left Ali.”
I nodded. We stopped talking about deep stuff and went into normal conversations. Jacob and Kelli met at a Starbucks and were engaged and were getting married soon.
By the way, my brother and I look NOTHING alike. He looks like Andrew Gardfield…which is kind of awkward considering I think Andrew Gardfield is INSANELY hot. That new Spiderman movie was incredible and he looked really nice in that skin tight-
You know what? I’m not going to finish that sentence.
Ali: “So when is the wedding?”
Jacob: “In three weeks.”
Ali: “Were you planning on inviting your only sister or…?”
Kelli: “Actually I was wondering if you would like to be my maid of honor.”
Ali: “But you barely know me, wouldn’t you want someone that you’re really close to?”
Kelli: “I think you should.”
Ali: “Thanks, I’d love to!”
Kelli: “Great!”
Ali: “So you guys just met at Starbucks?”
Jacob: “Yeah she spilt coffee all over me the first day we met and that’s how we started talking.”
They smiled and Liam looked at me.
Liam: “Like how we met.”
He whispered. I blushed and Jacob met my eyes and raised his eyebrows suggestively and winked at me.
Ali: “Shut it Jacob.”
I laughed.
Jacob: “Well we better be going, bye Ali. Bye Liam.”
I hugged Jacob and Kelli and they left. We stayed at the restaurant.
Liam: “Your brother seems nice.”
Ali: “Yeah.”
Liam: “It’s cute how they met randomly and now they’re getting married.”
Ali: “It is.”
I smiled at him and bit my lip.
Liam: “You ready to go?”
Ali: “Go where?”
Liam: “Come on love.”
He took me to a park and it was snowing really hard and I was freezing. Liam and I had a snowball fight.
Ali: “Liam!”
Liam: “Yeah?”
Ali: “My lips are like numb!”
He walks towards me. He grabs my hands and stares down at me.
Liam: “Let me warm them for you.”
He leans in and presses his lips against mine. We pull apart.
Liam: “Ali, will you-“
Jay: “What’s going on Ali?”
I look at him and drop Liam’s hands.
Ali: “What?”
Jay: “You said you couldn’t date me, but you can date him?”
Liam: “We’re not dating Jay.”
Jay: “I wasn’t talking to you pretty boy.”
Liam: “Just back off, if Ali broke up with you then she broke up with you, it’s her decision just let her be.”
Jay: “I’m not backing off this is none of your business.”
Liam: “Uhm yeah it is, Ali is like a sister to me and I care about her and I don’t want her dating jerks like you.”
Jay: “I’m the jerk? At least I didn’t rip your girlfriend away from you.”
Liam: “I didn’t rip your girlfriend away.”
Jay: “Maybe not purposely but we were perfectly fine until we came back to London and she ran into you.”
Ali: “Guys stop.”
Jay: “Shut up Ali.”
Liam: “Don’t talk to her like that.”
Jay: “Why do you care? You weren’t dating her for two months and then a random guy comes and takes your girlfriend away from you and she breaks up with you because another person comes along.”
Liam: “I’m sorry that your girlfriend broke up with you but that’s not my fault.”
Ali: “Jay Liam stop now, the reason I broke up with you, Jay, is because I love someone else. I didn’t want to be in a relationship where I don’t love the person and have to lie and pretend and act like I love you. Just accept the fact that I broke up with you and I love Lia- someone else and you don’t need to blame Liam, okay? Just find someone else. We weren’t meant to be, just accept it and forget about me. Even if you can’t forget me then at least stop trying to get with me I’m done with you okay?”
Jay: “Fine.”
He walked away and we just kind of stood there.
Liam: “Who do you love Ali?”
Ali: “Um…”
Liam: “I thought I heard you say…Lia?”
I bit the inside of my cheek and blushed.
Liam: “I don’t know if you forgot about a ‘m’?”
He winked at me.
Ali: “Maaaybe.”
Liam: “Oh really?”
Ali: “Maaaaaybe!”
He grabbed my hand and pulled me and we walked down the street towards the apartment. It was still kind of snowing and we got up the stairs and the boys were all sitting on the couch and as soon as we open the door they yell and run towards us.
Louis: “HOW WAS IT?!”
Harry: “WAS IT AMAZING?”
Zayn: “WAS IS ROMANTIC?!”
Niall: “ARE YOU TOGETHER YET?!”
Ali: “We aren’t together Nialler.”
Liam: “When were you planning on telling me this?!”
Ali: “Shut it!”
I push him playfully and walk back to my room. I change into some shorts and a t-shirt and sit down on my bed, exhausted. I messed with my hair which the curls had fallen out for the most part but were still present. Liam knocks and walks in and shuts the door behind him and sits down next to me.
Ali: “What’s up?”
Liam: “Ali…do you love me?”
Harry’s POV
I was sitting in my room with a girl I’ve been dating for about 11 months and she was staring down at her phone and we were just hanging out. I was sitting behind her and she was sitting between my legs and her head was against my chest.
Harry: “You alright love?”
Stephanie: “Yeah I guess.”
I kiss her neck and she flinches.
Harry: “Steph, what’s wrong?”
Stephanie: “These people…”
I look down at her phone and she was looking through hate. I grab her phone and set it on the table.
Stephanie: “Harry.” She whined.
Harry: “No Steph I’m not letting you look through that stuff.”
She turns around and is facing me and I cup her face and press my lips against hers and put my hands on her waist and she tangles her fingers in my hair. She pulls away and stands up.
Stephanie: “I’m sorry Harry, I can’t do this anymore.”
Harry: “Can’t do what?”
Stephanie: “I can’t…take the hate anymore.”
Harry: “I’ll tell them to back off.”
Stephanie: “That won’t stop them Harry, it will always be going on.”
Harry: “Please Stephanie…”
Stephanie: “Harry stop…”
Harry: “I love you Steph, I don’t think I can handle it if you leave.”
She stayed silent. I stood in front of her and rested my forehead on hers and stare into her deep blue eyes.
Harry: “I love you Stephanie, I hate when I see the things people say to you. I really care about you I always have and I don’t think I can take it if you leave me. You are amazing and beautiful and so special and you mean everything to me and I need you here. If you leave I don’t know what I’ll do, I don’t even remember what I did when I didn’t have you.”
I saw tears falling down her cheeks. I wiped the tears away and kissed her. She kissed me back and we kissed for a while and she pulled away.
Stephanie: “I love you Harry.”
Harry: “I love you too.”
Ali’s POV
Liam: “Ali…do you love me?”
Ali: “I…um…”
Ali just say it!
I thought to myself. I wanted to tell him so bad but I couldn’t just make myself look like an idiot and then he won’t love me back.
