Unexpected Fate
Chapter 29
Aria’s POV
Louis was searching through my fridge, while Suzan and I sat on the counter and Harry sat on a bar stool. Louis took out an apple and took a seat next to Harry. Suzan began to speak over Louis’ munching, “So, Zayn didn’t believe you?”
Harry shook his head, twirling his thumbs. After Suzan brought up Perrie in the car, Harry spilled to us about how she showed up at his flat, forcing herself on him. I felt a pang of sadness in my stomach knowing that she had kissed him. He had insisted that he hadn’t kissed her back, and I believed him, but the idea of her trying to get with Harry was one of my worst fears. Harry had gone on to explain how he talked to Zayn and he didn’t believe Harry.
My kitchen fell quiet, excepting for Louis’ crunching and me lightly swinging my legs against the counter. Harry looked troubled and Louis and Suzan looked to be deep in thought. I was just sitting there, awkwardly, thinking about how bad I wanted to slap Perrie all over again. I now wished that I hadn’t been so drunk that I couldn’t remember… It would have been nice to see her face. Louis broke the silence, talking with a cheek full of apple, “I’m just worried about Zayn finding out the truth. He needs to know but this will seriously hurt him.” He shook his head, “I could only imagine how he would feel.”
Suzan sighed, “But if this doesn’t get solved soon, this could mess with the band. I mean, it’s already tearing him and Harry apart,” she motioned a hand to Harry who just looked at his hands.
Louis stood, throwing his apple core in the trash, “You’re right… But how are we even supposed to get him to believe it? It’s not like we have viable proof.”
My head shot up from looking at my feet. I turned to Suzan, “What about that recording?”
Suzan’s eyes lit up, “I totally forgot about that!”
She stood up, retrieving her phone from her back pocket and walking over to Harry and Louis. Louis raised an eyebrow and Harry just looked stressed. “Listen,” Suzan said, pressing play.
The recording played and Louis’ face was shocked at Perrie’s words. Harry just shook his head in disgust. Suzan placed her phone back in her pocket. Louis spoke, “Well… If he doesn’t believe that, then I don’t think he will at all.”
Harry finally spoke, “But how are we going to get this to him?”
We all fell silent again. I thought about how we should go about this. I felt bad about how this would affect Zayn but I knew it would be better in the long run. I also thought about how much Perrie had affected my relationship with Harry. She loved me fretting about telling Harry on New Year’s Eve. She thought of it all as a little game. But now it was her turn to be the puppet. She needed Karma and I knew just how to serve it to her.
-THE NEXT DAY-
Suzan seemed to be delighted with my plan, as did Louis who commented on my devilishness. Harry seemed a little skeptical but said he would go along. I was really worried about Harry. I could just tell that all of this was eating him up inside. I hadn’t had any alone time with him, which I found very frustrating, but we had a mission we had to do. Louis said that the other boys would be flying out to Orlando, Florida to work in the recording studio there, which meant Harry and Louis were flying out there also. As a part of the plan, Suzan and I were tagging along with them, because little Perrie was going to spend some time with Zayn there. It all worked out perfectly.
My bag was packed and I tugged on my beanie and huge sunglasses. I left the apartment, placing a light kiss on Lizzie’s head, and meeting Lou, Harry, and Suzan out in the van. I sat beside Harry and he kissed me lightly on the cheek. My heart fluttered at the contact, begging for more. Louis popped his head between Harry and me, “Hey Ari. Aren’t you from Florida?”
I nodded my head stiffly, “Yeah.”
“Are we going to be close to your hometown?”
I nodded once again. Orlando was about thirty miles south-east of my hometown, Mount Dora. I knew that I needed to visit my parents, considering I hadn’t seen them in over a year and my mother was no longer talking to me. It was just another thing on the to-do list. Harry squeezed my hand, “Do you want to go see them?”
I sighed, but slightly nodded my head, “I probably should.”
A smile tugged at his lips, “Would you like company?”
I knew my mother didn’t approve of Harry but she also didn’t know him, so maybe it would help? I smiled at him, “Of course.”
He grinned, something that I had missed. He slugged his arm around me, placing a kiss on my forehead. We got to the aiport, and our flight was called shortly after our arrival. The plane ride to Orlando was quick. We managed to get through the airport unseen and slipped into another awaiting van. It stopped at a nice hotel and we all slipped out, dragging our bags behind us. The other boys and Perrie wouldn’t be here until tomorrow, which gave the rest of us some free time. We checked in, Harry getting his own suite. Louis got his own as well, and Suzan and I got a standard room. Harry slipped his arm around me, whispering in my ear, “I hope you know, you’re staying with me.”
His hot breath sent shivers down my spine. A blush formed on my cheeks and I grinned like an idiot. Suzan rolled her eyes at us, stepping into the elevator. Suzan and I arrived on our floor. She steps out and I begin to follow in suit when a hand grabed my arm, “No no no.”
I looked at Harry’s grinning face and I turned back to Suzan. She waved me off, “I’ll be fine staying by myself. You go,” she winked at me.
Harry’s arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me back into the elevator. I let out a few giggles and he bent down, nuzzling his face in the crook of my neck. Louis let out a disgusted noise, “Can you to wait to have make-up sex AFTER we get off this lift? I would rather not see you too shagging.” His voice was teasing, causing me and Harry to laugh.
Harry raised an eyebrow as the door dinged open, “Jealous, Boo Bear?”
Louis stepped out and we followed. He turned back sending us a wink, “If you want to have some real fun, you know where to find me, you sexy man, you.”
I started laughing hysterically as Harry slid the card into the door. Louis disappeared down the hall, and I entered the room, still laughing. The suite was like most, fancy and nice with all the fixings. I placed my bag by the bed. All of the sudden, I felt those strong arms around me and hot breath on my neck. My giggles immediately seized. I turned around in his arms, looking up into his beautiful green eyes. I wrapped my arms around his neck. He lightly licked his lips before speaking, “You are so beautiful.”
Butterflies erupted in my stomach and I placed one of my hands on his cheek, not speaking. He closed his eyes. When he opened them, his expression was almost pained, “I have missed you… So much.”
My lips tugged into a smile. I whispered, “Prove it.”
His eyes glazed over slightly with lust and his lips finally found mine. They were soft and warm. A little piece of me finally felt whole again. The pain that I had had inside of me for what seemed like forever now, finally seized with his touch. Everything felt right again. His lips traveled down my neck, causing goose bumps to spread over my body. He lightly pulled my shirt over my head and gently laid me down on the bed. His weight against me felt perfect. He left trails of kisses all over my body, sucking lightly with each. A small moan escaped my lips when he reached the sensitive spot below my ear. I felt a smile on his lips, pleased with himself. He pulled back, his face only hovering inches away from mine, noses almost touching. I ran my hand through his curls and he stared down at me intensely. Just from that look, my whole body went into frenzy. He rubbed his nose against mine.
Another whisper escaped my lips, “I love you.”
He grinned at me, showing his dimples and causing my heart to flip, “You don’t know how much I missed hearing that.” His face became serious, “I never want to have to go a day of my life without hearing it… Ever again, Aria. Promise me you won’t leave me like that again.” His voice was a little pained and it broke my heart.
I pushed back a stray curl on his forehead, “I promise.”
His lips crushed back against mine, more urgent and lustful. Every touch was special all in its own. I knew I could never be without him again. It just hurt us both way too much. If what we had isn’t real, I don’t know what is. We had already been through so much together, but in the end, it has only made this special thing we have, stronger.
Louis was searching through my fridge, while Suzan and I sat on the counter and Harry sat on a bar stool. Louis took out an apple and took a seat next to Harry. Suzan began to speak over Louis’ munching, “So, Zayn didn’t believe you?”
