They Don't Know About Us
Nothing
Harry's PoV
"Dude! What's going on?" Louis asked punching me in the shoulder. I shook my head laughing slightly.
"Nothing." I put my hands up as if I were surrendering to the police.
"But, you were in her bed." Liam pointed to her bedroom, where El, Dani and Lexi were.
"We were just sleeping." I told them in all honesty.
"But Louis said you're arms were around her!" Zayn was getting excited.
"So." I didn't know how to respond to that. It was true my arms were around her, and it never felt more comfortable.
"Come on, you can't tell us you don't like her, after cooking with her all night last night and then waking up in her bed. Mate, you like her." I just shrugged my shoulders at what Niall said.
"Nothing is going on." I tried again.
"Then why were you in her bed?" Liam asked. I had to think quickly.
"After the film, we went to her room to talk for a bit, we weren't tired, and we didn't want to wake you."
"What did you talk about? And you still didn't answer, Why were you in her bed this morning?!" This was rubbish, it was so early and I hated having to think quickly.
"After we finished talking, since we were already there in her room, she offered the other half of her bed. Did you see it, it was huge!" I tried changing the subject slightly.
"That still doesn't explain why you were found with your arms wrapped tightly around her."
Lexi's PoV
"What is going on?" Eleanor asked me as soon as my door was shut.
"What do you mean?" I tried playing dumb. They both looked at me mouths dropped open slightly as their eyes squinted.
"Harry! He was in your bed, his arms were wrapped around you. Your face was in his neck!" Dani exclaimed.
"Oh!" I was going to play this card so hard, I though to myself. "That. I'm not sure." I told them truthfully.
"What do you mean, what happened last night? Details now!" Eleanor was getting excited too. I thought for a second before thinking of something that sounded innocent.
"Last night, when the movie ended, everyone was asleep. Harry and I weren't tired so we went to my room so we wouldn't wake you." I wasn't lying yet, it was all the truth.
"But why was he sleeping in your bed?"Dani was trying to keep her voice down so that boys wouldn't hear us. I was still trying to play a little dumb.
"Oh, that?" Then I gave them a small chuckle. "That, my bed is so big that I offered the other half to him, I'm not that fat. I don't need the whole thing."
"That explain that, but why was his arms around you and you face in his neck?" I shrugged my shoulders and exhaled loudly.
"I really don't know, we fell asleep at opposite sides of the bed, and I woke up like that." Explaining this to them was easier the I thought.
"So, nothings going on?" They asked in unison.
"Nope!" I smiled at them, feeling a though I accomplished something.
"You'd tell me though, right?" Eleanor grabbed the side of my shoulder and looked into my eyes. She got quiet. I didn't want to lie to her, but I was so glad it was working.
"Of course." I shook my head like one does when they reassure someone.
I felt bad for Harry because he had to explain to the lads why his arms were around me. I wanted to know as well, but I knew I would have to wait to find out. We walked out of my room and down the hall to the kitchen.
"And you're sure you don't like her?" Niall asked obviously still looking for answers from him. I smiled.
"Nope." He put a heavy emphasis on the "p". His eyes fell on me, my smile causing him to smile.
"Now what was that?" Louis shouted. Causing Harry and I to laugh hysterically.
"There is seriously something going on." Dani said before taking a sip of the steaming cup of tea Liam had in his hand before he handed it to her. When I caught my breath I answered their continued interrogation.
"Nothing is going on, that's what's so funny, you have yourselves convinced Harry and I perfect for each other!" Harry laughed even louder.
"I'm going to shower." I told them as I started walking back to my room. I tuned to face the group, "El, if you go get coffee, could you pick me up something please."
"Sure!" She smiles at me as I pulled the hair tie out of my hair. I go to room shutting the door behind me. I decided to go for some skinny jeans and a grey v neck and a pink plaid button up. I laid the clothes on my bed and went to the bathroom. Am I really fangirling over this? Harry Styles wants to date me. Of all people, in the whole world, He wanted to have breakfast with me. I woke up this morning and his hands were around me, my face was in his neck. He smelled so good, it was indescribable, it was nice though. I bit my lip at the thought of how peaceful it was this morning. What kind of scared me was how quickly I'd fallen. If that's what you call it. Just yesterday El had to beg me to hang out with them, and now I couldn't stop thinking about him.
I got out and put the clothes on. Then I went back into the bathroom to brush my hair and put acne medicine on my face. I left my face without any makeup and left my hair to dry naturally. I left my room with a pair of fuzzy socks in my hand. Harry was the only one left in the flat. I silently asked him where everyone was.
"They went to get coffee and wouldn't let me go with them. They said someone had to be here when you got out to explain." I shook my head at their efforts. "You look lovely, by the way." He said as the goofy grin from before covered his face.
"Thank you." I stood just barely in the kitchen watching him. He was now standing watching me. What we were waiting for I wasn't sure. I rocked, rolling up on my toes and then back on my heels as the silence became almost comfortable. Our heads swung to the crowd coming through the door. Eleanor was at the front with Louis in one hand and a drink carrier in the other. Harry took it from her.
"Lexi's is the cold one." I thanked Harry, and Eleanor. I took a gulp or my caramel frapaccino.
"What did you get?" I asked Harry after he took a careful sip of what ever was steaming in his cup.
"It's a caramel latte."
"Tastey."
"What's on the schedule for today?" The curly haired brunette asked Liam. Liam explained to the group the had an interview with a late night talk show.
"Are you going to go with them El?" She always went with them when she didn't school things to do. And since we were done till after the holidays she most likely would.
"If it's all right with Louis?" She turned to him, her arm still linked to his.
"Of course Love, you're welcome anywhere."
"I'm sure you could come too! I mean if you'd like?" Danielle got extreme excited and then calmed down a bit.
"You;re going to?" I asked her.
"Yup!" She tilted her chin up, like she was proud of the fact that she was going. Harry was waiting for my answer, I could see it in his eyes, he wanted me to be there.
"I don't know, I have some very important blogging to do.I mean I haven't been on in a whole day."
"You're always on the computer, come out with us please!!" Eleanor told the group my embarrassing past time.
"We can go get food before, come on Lexi! It'll be fun!" Niall said in his wonderful Irish accent.
"Well," I shrugged my shoulders. "If you all don't mind?" I looked to Harry, who hadn't said anything in a few minutes. The others followed my gaze and looked to Harry as well.
"If you don't mind the rumors," He brought up that arriving to the studio with them would mean rumors suggesting we were a thing. And by things we all know the they would be romantic things.
"It would be kind of funny to have rumors going around about us." I smiled at Harry.
"Yeah I mean considering you're not together or anything." Liam's tone suggested he knew something. I wanted to narrow my eyes at him, but I refrained so they wouldn't catch on. I decided I would go with them. We hung out around the flat for the rest of the day, until it was dinner time.
"Let's go to Nando's!!!" Niall shouted at us.
"Come Niall, can't you eat anywhere else?" Louis sighed.
"I guess," Niall slumped down in his seat in defeat.
"Let's go to the little dinner down the street." I suggested. Eleanor and I went there all the time for meals when we didn't feel like cooking.
"We always got there." El complained. She obviously didn't want to go there.
"Let's go somewhere where we've never gone." Liam suggested logically.
"Are we going to call Zayn and Perrie?" Danielle wanted to know.
"Yeah, lets have Zayn and Perrie come!" I said enthusiastically. I hadn't met Perrie but once. She was really nice though.
We called Zayn, who was with Perrie. We decided to go to this place about a half hour away. It was a sushi bar. My favorite, though I'd never been there, it was expensive.
"So, we'll see you in about a half hour?" Louis said into the phone. "All right, see ya." Lou smiled and then ended the call. Louis drove his car, with El, Liam and Dani. Niall and I rode with Harry.
"Shot gun!" I yelled as we approached Harry 's black Range Rover. Niall reluctantly got in the back seat. He pulled out his phone and some headphones. Harry put the car in gear and drove off following close behind Louis. Niall had the head phones in his ears, drumming away on his leg.
"Niall?" Harry asked quietly to see if he could hear. Harry said his name a few more times as I watched for any reaction. When we were sure he couldn't hear us Harry started talking. "I know it's a little risky talking, but my lip will have a hole in it by the end of the night if I don't." My head was facing him. I kept my eyes on him as he looked from the road to me for a split second and then back at the road.
"I know. It's so funny watching them think about us as couple." I smiled uncontrollably.
"Liam really thinks something is going on." His eyes went wide for a second as he mentioned Liam.
"Everyone does!" We giggled at the hilarity of it all. I looked back at Niall, his head was extended back, his mouth was open, and his breathing was heavy. Niall was asleep. Perfect!
"How long do you want to pretend to not be together?" He asked. When he looked at me the next time he kept his green eyes locked on mine for longer then before. I blushed.
"Are you saying we're together?" The bracelets on my wrist had a sudden need to played with. Harry went silent. I think he just realized what he had just said. "Because that would be cool. I mean if you want, I know we've only just started to get to know each other, but I mean, if you'd like." I tried to calm him, and calm myself. I looked back to see if Niall was still asleep. His eyes were still closed but he had a huge smile on his face.
That's why Harry went silent, Niall was awake.
"Dude! What's going on?" Louis asked punching me in the shoulder. I shook my head laughing slightly.
"Nothing." I put my hands up as if I were surrendering to the police.
"But, you were in her bed." Liam pointed to her bedroom, where El, Dani and Lexi were.
