Tainted Love

Chapter 5

Thalia’s POV

I don’t think it bothers me that I intentionally let Niall beat me in Call of Duty. I could so beat his ass, and my kill streak is one of the highest. I’ll make him sing for me when I end up hanging out with him again and hopefully then we'll be closer. I wonder if he's as affectionate, as they say he is. He’s everything I dreamt my dream boyfriend to be. He’s perfect, well perfect to me...

“Stop thinking about your boo thang and get ready! We have less than two hours to do our hair, shower and get ready!” Dana screamed at me, shaking me out of my thoughts.

I feel like ever since I've hung out with him, I cant shake the thought that I maybe, I might end up with him. I mean when I really think about it, there's so many clues. He would hardly let go of my hand today, and it was actually really cute. I’m just waiting for him to kiss me, Wait what if he doesn't want to kiss me…what if he doesn't have any feelings for me. Maybe i'm just over thinking. Although I'm antsy for his move, I know he won't anytime soon. He’s seems very respectful, and he hasn't pushed my boundaries.

I can just see him singing Irresistible to me and Truly, Madly, Deeply.

I really need to get ready.

“IM COMING” I muttered while running up the stairs not realizing how late it was getting. My hair is going to take forever. I better hurry.

Dana’s POV

I’ve been standing here for the past 30 minutes trying to figure out what to wear. Nothing…absolutely nothing….

After rummaging through my closet, and I glance around the room in hopes that something I threw on the floor with look a tad bit more appealing. A big paper bag catches my attention, and I remember that I went shopping! How could I forget the clothes I bought a few days back. Wow could I get any dumber? I finally pick out a tight body con, A chunky Aldo gold chain and my Celine accessories to match. I give myself a once over in the mirror, and am somewhat pleased, as to what I see. Ever since I’ve let my hair grow out it covered my scars, and draped over my back beautifully.

Alas finishing my makeup, I applied on a natural look but added a little gold shadow to make my eyes stand out more. Time to wait for Thalia.

Around 8:30 Thalia finally steps out proclaiming she finished her hair. Twirling around for me, I can't help but be jealous at how beautiful it looks. It’s thick, and as beautiful as it looks, it would be too much of a hassle for me to tame. I don’t know how she deals with it.

Curling it in loose waves, she rushed over to her room, and quickly slipped on her already pre-laided out clothing. I thank goodness that she picked out her outfit before primping herself up, otherwise we would be here all night. She exits wearing a black dress embedded with nude lace designs, matching it with nude Louboutins and a Prada clutch. Her make-up is her usual; A winged eyeliner and bold red lipstick to spice it up. Looking gorgeous as always, I admire that Thalia and I have very identical style. Whenever we have saved up money we splurge in Bloomys and Sax Fifth Ave. Due to our similar taste in clothing, we spend countless hours in the city, shopping till we literally drop. As materialistic as it may sound, we aren't but we do adore designer products.

My One Direction ringtone fills the room, and I'm quick to remind Thalia to turn off our ringers before heading out. It would be really embarrassing to have our ringers go off, and SOML play loud and clear while with them.

“Hey love its Harry. All our go to clubs are all in the city, and they're all mobbed with paparazzi. Do you mind recommending me a nice club around the area?”

“I honestly only know of a couple that are in Staten Island but they’re really nothing special. There is one in the City that’s pretty famous called the Roseland Ballroom. It's pretty posh. Just make sure you dress nicely and no pony tails Hazz” I tease playfully, trying to hold back my laughter.

“Hey.. that’s not very nice what’s wrong with my ponytail?” he huffed, sounding a tad bit offended.

“Nothing, nothing! just leave your hair down.” I quickly changed the subject not wanting to hurt his feelings, if they were hurt.

“Alright we'll pick you guys up soon. See ya love.” And with that the call ends.

“Meatballll!!! I told Harry to leave his hair down do you think he got offended? I feel bad, but c’mon he should know that ponytail isn’t his best look. I mean he still looks fine, just a bit off. OH and before I forget make sure not to get too shwastey pants tonight. AND THALIA keep the dirty dancing a tad down.” I shot her an evil glare, and she shook her head, chuckling at my comment.

“Oh I know Day. God if he wore a ponytail around me…god knows what I'll do. I would definitely pull the hair tie out myself, that would be a must. I love Harry but that ponytail is not a good look. Not a good look at all. AND HEY…Seductive dancing is the key...” Thalia shakes her head thinking of the thought of him in a ponytail. Muttering things to herself, I wonder if there ever is a day where she isn't blunt. Unaware at how harsh her words are, I don't think she realizes it, and one day she'll really hurt someone's feelings. But that’s her, and oppose to her bluntness, she has an outgoing bubbly personality. So it's nothing you can't get accustomed too.

As for I, I’m very outgoing, or so I think I am. But lately I’ve noticed that I’ve been pretty bitchy to Harry, and I don't even know why. Maybe it's time to change that….Well on another note... I plan on having a lot of fun tonight and its time to live while were young….

BEEEP BEEEEEEEP. I hear Harry's driver pull up outside,

“WEEBLES THEY'RE HERE LETS GO!” She screeches, while flying down the stairs and almost tumbling down onto her face. She most likely forgot hat she’s wearing 5 inch heels right now and from all the excitement that is going on in her head, she most definitely forgot to be cautious.

“Dayday how do I look ok? How’s my lipstick, do I need to pull down my dress? Is my hair still curly oh and how’s the breath?” She stammers out, huffing in my face

Jesus this girl's really nervous. Resting both of my hands on her shoulders, I shake her slightly, reminding her to relax. Before I could give her a little pep talk the door bell rings and Thalia runs over to open it. All I needed was two seconds, now that girls going to going crazy. I walk over to the door and see Niall standing there with a bouquet of roses which he almost drops as he the sight of her. I must admit, she looks so much more different than she would of looked like in her casual attire. Big change, for such little time that we had.

“Wow, you look absolutely gorgeous. Tell me again why you're single. A guy has to be completely barmy to not want to be your boyfriend.” Niall compliments her while smirking causing her to turn a deep crimson. Something i've never seen on her cheeks ever. Her olive complexion does not do her justice around Niall, and his compliments.

“I’d love to stay here all night and have you guys be corny to each other but I think the rest of the boys are waiting for us outside. So Niall grab your bird and let's go.” Thalia shot me a look before mouthing a thank you. Hey best friends are here to blow up spots…and it was obviously something she wouldn't have had the guts to say...

As we walked out the door, and down towards the car Harry was there to greet me.

“Sorry I didn’t come to the door the same time Niall did. Niall gobsmacked with her, he practically fell out of the truck when we pulled up. But... I got you roses and by the way must I add you look absolutely beautiful.” He said holding up a beautiful bouquet of roses, a big grin plastered on his face.

Leaning in he whispered in my ear “Little Black Dress just walked into the room, its to late to go home, I wanna see the way you move for me baby.” Brushing his lips from the side of my ear to the edge of my lips along my jaw left tingles all over.

“You don’t look to shabby either. I mean when do you not look perfect. Umm..just wait out here ill be right back.” I said breathlessly, stepping inside making sure not to open the door too much and expose the millions of 1D posters in the house.

As I came back outside Harry was still standing by the door. I could tell he was wondering why I didn’t invite him in.

“Another time Hazz.” I said as he grabbed my hand and we walked toward the truck.

“Wowww.” All 5 boys said in syncrinition as I stepped up into the truck making me blush.

“Thanks guys, you all look very handsome tonight but where are all your girlfriends and your fiancé Zayn?”

“Oh they all flew from England today they'll probably meet us at the club. I think their excited to meet you girls.” Liam said.

I smiled back, not uttering anything due to the lack of sleep, I've had over these past few days. I just can’t wait to get to the club maybe the music and loudness will wake me up.

…...

After we found somewhere to park we all emptied out of the truck. Harry got out before I did. helping me as I hopped out of the truck. Admiring at how sweet he was, he was everything I thought he would be but I can't help but wonder if this is real or not? He’s known as a flirt so lets see what happens at the club.

As we walked into the club I could feel my heartbeat from the bass. It was an amazing feeling. I felt worry free for once in my life and all my stress seemed to diminish.

“Wanna dance?” Harry asked.

I couldn’t help but laugh because from all their interviews all they talk about is how they can’t dance. “Really?” I said. I mean of course I’m going to dance it is club but I cant wait to see all of 1D dance I’m going to die of laughter.

“Are you guys gonna shake your ass just like you did in Best Song Ever. I know you guys can’t dance. You honestly don’t have to if you don’t want to. I don’t want you to embarrass yourself.” Trying to hold back a laugh.

“Heyyy be nice.” Nudging me slightly. “I know how to do a couple of moves. How ‘bout the traffic and the skiing and the wait that way no that way.” He said imitating the Kiss You video and other music videos causing me to laugh.

To my ultimate surprise Best Song Ever started playing in the club. Thalia and me caught each other eye and got up right away and went to the dance floor. Every One Direction member started screaming and all started dancing in the center of the dance floor how they danced in the video. Me and Thalia started hysterically laughing and almost everyone realized who they were and people started crowding around them.

People starting cheering and clapping and some asked for autographs. Louis and Liam were doing stop the traffic and Harry and Niall were shaking their butts. They then screamed free shots for everyone. I knew at that point it was going to be a start of a goodnight.
