Ella's pov

I walk back to my seat, right behind Harry.

He sits and i give him a glare.

"So, what was that all about?" Louis leans over to ask me, quiet enough for no one to hear.
"Nothing," he raises one eyebrow. i sigh, "Do me a favor Louis?"
"Sure, and call me Lou," i nod and motion for him to come closer so i am quieter.

"I need you to get Harry to...." i groan, "Go..on a date...with me."
Louis pulls away with wide eyes.

"Whats the matter Lou?" Liam asks, stopping his conversation with Gemma.
I hit Louis' leg and he clears his throat, "Nothing. Just, thinking of Eleanor..."

There's something of truth in his voice...

"I am sorry Lou, I know you're taking it hard." Niall rubs his back, while Zayn does the same.
I grab Louis' hand and brush the hair from his forehead. I may not know whats going on but god damn I feel bad and I'm going to comfort him!
Louis lays his head on my shoulder as I comb my fingers through his hair.

Harry's pov

I don't like it.
He has his hand in hers.
His head on her shoulder.
Her fingers, tangled in his hair.

That could be me, I could have those fingers raking through my hair, as i kissed her lips, neck-
I said no.

I just have to wait until my plan falls into place. but i guess I'll have to make one change.

After we finish eating and chatting for a bit, we all get up and walk to our cars.

"Oh man! It's f-fr-freezing out h-here.." my teeth chatter and I wrap my arms on my shoulders.
"Come on then!" Gemma laughs and grabs my arm, rushing me to the car and leaving the boys behind.

She shoves me in and slams the door.
"What the hell happened?!"
"What do you mean?" i ask, puzzled.
"With you and Harry!"
"He said..no." i fond myself oddly disappointed.

When we are dropped off at Harry's house I say goodbye to the other boys, kissing each on the cheek and hugging them.
"Aww, Niall, i think I got some lip gloss on your cheek..." i laugh and wipe the pale pink cream off his face.
He chuckles, "I think its a better color on you then on me."
I giggle and slap his chest, man he must work out!

"I'll see you guys tomorrow then?" i ask as Gemma stands beside me, after she is done confirming her plans with Liam.
"Sure, we can go-"
"To the mall. I need to go shopping, I don't think I can be seen with One Direction looking like this." Gemma jokes.
"I think you look fine." Liam says. she looks down at her feet with a smile.

"How sweet, now if you would stop flirting with my sister, I'm tired." Harry says, rolling his eyes.
Liam laughs and as the three leave, Liam sneaks a wink to Gemma.

Louis walks me to the door faster than Gemma and Harry.
"Make him jealous." he says, opening the door with his key.
"What? Who?"
"Harry, make him jealous, it puts him on edge when he can't get someone." Louis says nothing else because the doors open and Harry and Gemma come in laughing.

Louis leans in to hug but whispers in my ear, "Now would be the time to start, love."

Louis smiles, "night Gemma, night Ella." he leans towards me and pecks my lips.
I stay stunned for a second but then hug him back and wave, "night Lou."

Harry's pov

They seem awfully friendly.


"Well, night you guys." Gemma says and jogs up the stairs.
Ella walks to the living room.

"Not tired?" i ask, holding my arms behind my back.
She looks up, "Oh, no, I usually stay up late..."
"Good, me too."
I flop down on the seat next to hers, sure to get closer then she'd want.

Ella's pov
He is sitting much to close for my liking.

I clear my throat and scoot a bit farther away.
He scoots closer, I move back, once again he comes closer.

"Harry.." i take one big leap down to the end on the couch.

He scoots right up against me.
My back is to the edge and he faces me.

Our chest almost touching.

"Harry...I..um..."
"Shh, love, stop talking."

He leans close.
I close my eyes, waiting to feel his warm lips on mine.

His lips only brush mine before his travel to my ear.

"Go to sleep baby, tomorrows going to be a long day..."
