Yours

[Rebecca's POV]


"Re-re... I want to go see Leeeumm." Lizzy whined pulling on my sleeve.
I giggled. For the past two days she had grown fond over Liam; he's returned that same fond.
"Don't you want to spend time with, oh I don't know, your sister?" I smiled.
She smiled. "Yes, but I want to see Liam."
"Okay, we'll go in a second." I laughed.
She jumped and cheered.
We're in Toronto, Canada this evening. The boys did nothing, but interviews in New York. They've finally got a day off. Tomorrow will be Lizzy's first concert. She's so excited she almost peed her pants when I told her she'd be backstage at a concert, and not just any concert. The one Liam is performing in. She has surprisingly warmed up to harry. When he babysat her the other day, I came back to see them laughing together at something. It was cute.
"Alright, kiddo let's go see if Leeeeumm is in his room." I smiled grabbing her hand.
She dragged me out of the room and to Liam's door knocking with her delicate knuckles. I helped her out and knocked three times before Liam opened the door. Lizzy flew onto his legs clinging herself to him.
"I see she wants to see me." He laughed.
I nodded. "I'm sorry, but she just really likes you."
He smiled. "Not at all, I love this kid."
I sighed in relief. "Okay, thanks. I'll see you guys at dinner."
Liam saluted before trying to turn around with Lizzy still on his leg. I laughed just as he got the door closed. I smiled to myself, but got shook out of it when someone hit my shoulder. I looked up and Harry was walking fast to Louis' door and knocking quickly.
He didn't even notice he knocked into me. What's with him?



[Harry's POV]


I walked into Louis's room determined to find out more about this thing with Simon.
"I just feel really bad doing this." I sighed plopping down onto the sofa.
Niall was in here too. "Why? it's not like it's hurting anyone." Niall said.
"I just don't get why Simon would lie to Rebecca about her audition date and ask us to go along with it." I said leaning my head on the couch behind me.
"To help your reputation." Louis said.
"How is her missing her audition on the 3rd helping my reputation?" I asked looking at Louis.
"Well," he started. "it shows that you don't pick girls who don't care about you. Having Rebecca there at Madison Square will show everyone you have a supportive girlfriend. Also, don't you want her there?"
"Yeah, but what about my role in being a supportive boyfriend?" I asked feeling guilty.
"You still can Harry." Niall said. My head turned to him. "Simon said she can still audition the next day. So, you both can get on a plane that night and the next day she can audition. You'll be there for her. That means you bath care about each other and you're a supportive boyfriend, not a guy how doesn't care." Niall smiled.
I nodded understanding.
"Seriously?" I asked feeling better about this. "She can still audition?"
"Yeah, that's what Simon said." Niall nodded looking down at his phone.
Louis didn't say anything, he just looked down. I had the vibe i'm missing something, but I shook it off. If Simon said she can still audition, i'm sure she can. It's a win, win. Cool.
"Okay," I breathed out happily. "I feel better about this as long as she can still audition. I've taken too much away from her. This I think would actually kill her if I took it away." I joked.
Niall chuckled while Louis shifted uncomfortably. What's with him?
"Hey Harry," Niall asked. I turned to him. "Is there, I don't know, possibly a chance you actually might like Rebecca?"
I grimaced. "What? her, no."
Niall eyed me. "Are you sure? I mean, you're caring an awful lot about someone you supposedly don't like."
"Niall," I chuckled. "this thing Rebecca and I have is fake. No real feelings. She's just trying to fix my screwed up self."
He nodded like he didn't believe me. "Whatever you say."
I shook my head. "Plus, she's not my type."
Both Niall and Louis looked at me with questioning looks. "What's you type? prostitutes?" Louis laughed high-fiving Niall. Well.. glad to see he's better.
"Ha. Ha." I laughed dryly. "No, I just don't like the goodie-goodies."
"You're really protective over her." Niall added.
"I'm like that with all woman." I said seriously.
"Not with your prostitutes." Louis laughed again.
I shook my head. "Lads, i'm serious. She's not my type, and never will be. She's getting paid for this remember? She's just acting, like me."
Louis knitted his eyebrows. "Rebecca isn--" He got cut off by the door being knocked on.
"You better get that." I nudged his side.
He got up and went for the door letting in Liam, Lizzy, and Zayn in. Lizzy jumped from Liam's arms and ran to Niall. She was a cutie pie. Louis returned to his seat next to me and Zayn by him.
"Like I was saying, Rebecca isn't g--" he got cut off by Niall.
"Where's Becca?" He asked tickling Lizzy.
"Her room." Liam shrugged.
We all nodded. I turned to Louis again and he was now talking to Zayn. Oh well. We spent most of the day in here entertaining Lizzy while Rebecca was no where in sight. We all came to the conclusion she fell off the face of the earth, but for Lizzy's sake we said she was to China. I don't know. We just haven't seen her. Though no one actually checked her hotel room.
We played with Lizzy, watched tv, and played on the game system. No one talked about the Simon- Rebecca thing. We don't know if Lizzy would accidentally say something. Couldn't risk it.
"DINNER!" Paul shouted through the door. "AND SOME ONE WAKE BECCA!"
Ah, so she's asleep.
"I'll wake Re-Re!" Lizzy said running to the door trying to open it.
"Well, someones going to have to go with her." I said pointing at the frustrated child trying to open the door.
The guys laughed and I felt something land in my lap. "What's this?" I ask holding up a key card.
"Bec's, room key." Liam smiled.
"Oh, no." I stood up. "Not me."
Lizzy came running back and grabbed my hand. "Curly, come on." She pleaded.
The guys laughed again and I surrendered and followed her out. I opened the door and she ran out going to Rebecca's door. Zayn followed me and we all went into her room. We walked in and saw Rebecca sleeping. We closed the door and heard a scream.
Thinking it was just Lizzy jumping on Rebecca, Zayn and I turned around, but instead we saw a worried Lizzy holding Zayn's hand. Zayn and I looked at each other. Then the scream happened again. Zayn and I took action. He picked up Lizzy while I ran into the room part. I saw Rebecca shaking. She was asleep, but shaking. I went to the bed and started calling her name.
"Rebecca." I said shaking her shoulders.
"Rebecca." I said shaking her harder.
I heard crying. I turned around and Zayn was trying to sooth Lizzy who was crying. Rebecca screamed again. I started to worry. I shook her once again and she shot up. She saw me and started crying.
What in the world?
She clung to me. I turned around. "Zayn, get Lizzy out. Go to dinner, i'll stay with Rebecca."
He nodded and went out with Lizzy who was as well crying still. I turned back to Rebecca and she started pounding on my chest. "Where were you?" she cried.
Um...
"What are you talking about?" I asked confused.
"Where were you? you said you wouldn't leave me." She cried hitting me harder.
"Rebecca." I said grabbing her fists. "I'm right here."
"You lied." She cried fighting to free her hands.
"Rebecca!" I yelled getting her attention. She stopped. "What happened?"
"You said you'd be there. You never came." She cried harder and started shaking.
"Rebecca, I didn't say anything." I said rubbing her arms.
"No, you left me to die." She cried. "The car.. it was coming. You never showed."
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
She shook her head crying. "The lights were so bright. I couldn't move. Harry, you didn't save me this time. You just let it happen."
It took me a second to think about what she was saying. She's thinking she was going to get hit again. "Rebecca, it was a dream."
She looked up. "What?"
"You just had a nightmare. You were never going to get hit." I said wiping her tears.
"What..." She trailed looking at her hands.
"Becca, I would never let you get hit." I said hugging her close. "Never."
"You promise?" She sniffled.
I pulled her closer. "I promise. I saved you once; i'd do it again."
She clung onto me and cried. I laid her down and climbed onto the bed next to her. She cuddled up to me and cried while I rubbed her back. I kept saying things like "You're alright." and "Nothing's going to happen." even "You're safe." I did a few "Shhhh." She finally calmed down and we were just laying there. Looking up at the ceiling.
"Thank you." She whispered.
"No problem." I said still rubbing her lower back.
"I'm sorry for hitting you." She said with a slight laugh.
I chuckled. "It's okay, I deserved it. I left you there to die."
She laughed. "Not funny. I seriously thought I was going to get hit."
I turned to her. "It was just a dream."
She looked up at me. "I know, but it did actually happen once."
I sighed. "I saved you didn't I?"
She nodded. "Thanks for saving me."
"I wasn't going to let you die right there, no matter how much I despised you."
"You despised me?" She asked.
"Then, yes." I said shaking my head.
"What about now?" She asked.
I looked into her eyes and smiled. "You're alright."
She laughed. "Alright? that's all I get?"
"Hey, you're a work in progress." I winked.
She laughed. "Using my words against me are we?"
I smiled. "Maybe."
"You're horrible." She giggled.
"Ah, i'll grow on you." I smiled while she got comfortable in my arms.
"Sure." She rolled her eyes.
"Hey, don't roll your eyes at me missy." I warned.
"Or what?' She challenged.
I grinned and swiftly pinned her down beneath me. "Or I just might had to squash you alive."
She laughed. "You are so cheesy."
"I'd rather be cheesy then horrible any day." I said locking eyes with her.
"Oh yeah?" She asked smirking.
"Yeah." I said licking my lips.
It was silent for awhile until I saw her look at my lips then back to my eyes. I did the same, but when I went back to her eyes they were a lighter shade. They were beautiful. I never really just looked at them before.
I soon found myself leaning in, but so was she. She closed her eyes and I closed mine. Right when I could fell her lips brush against mine, there was a knock.
"REBECCA!!" We opened our eyes. We were so close breathing in sync.
"REBECCA, ARE YOU ALRIGHT??" It sounded like Liam.
We just looked at each other not moving. Her hands were on my biceps. My hands were on each side of her neck holding me up. I licked my lips and my tongue brushed against her lips. She didn't budge.
"REBECCA?" Liam sounded worried now.
"You should probably answer Liam." I said my lips turning into a smile.
"Probably should." She said and smiled.
I leaned up and sat on her bed. She got up and went to the door.
So... we almost kissed. For real this time. No acting what's so ever.
Not for me anyway.
