The Bad Boy Effect
Fight
Ada's Point of View
I turned off my lights and looked out of my window, watching all of the guys come in. Harry stepped out of his car with Louis and Zayn looking perfect. He was wearing a plain, black t-shirt like usual but it somehow got me every time. I shook it off and waited for Niall to arrive. When he did he also looked amazing, wearing a teal t-shirt and some white shoes--a little bit more athletic than Harry's boots. I shut my blinds and grabbed my computer. I guess I can't really read or write with my lights off....I'm not even supposed to be here. When I texted Elisha earlier she was a little bit upset but understood my lie, "I'm just really sick and I don't think I can get out of bed today. Work even sent me home." Ughh. I really hate lying to the people I care about but that seems to be something I've been doing a lot of lately. I also hadn't talked to Oakley in forever. I'm sure he probably hates me right now but when I finally have the courage to tell him everything he should be understanding. El said they were going to hang out tonight since we couldn't. I think he actually really likes her.
I hear the guys laughing downstairs but I really wish I could be sitting somewhere closer so I could hear everything. I loved when Niall laughed; I could hear it as it faded away. And Harry's was always so unpredictable. Sometimes it was a quiet and shy one, and some times it was a loud and unexpected one. I put in my head phones to tune them out. I didn't want to know anything that was happening; tonight is my night.
Harry's Point of View
Niall and I have been getting along so far. He's actually a pretty cool guy. Maybe he didn't have feelings towards Ada; he seemed to be enjoying the girls on the tv. But then again, I was too.
"Who wants some shots?" Liam yelled.
"Me, definitely me!" The guys laughed at my excitement. "I'll go get some shot glasses." It had been a rough week.
I walked into the kitchen and opened some of the cabinets before noticing some pictures on the fridge. I saw one of the family and one of Ada and her dog that died last year. She was in love with that golden doodle--which happened to be as black as a cat. Then there were some pictures from this summer. I smiled at one with with our whole group around a camp fire and another one where we were in the pool playing chicken. Ada was on Zayn's shoulders and I was sitting on the side of the pool with a beer in my hand--staring at her like I've never looked at any other girl in my life. I took the last one off of the fridge and ran my fingers over it. It was Ada next to me in front of a bonfire. We were making s'mores and my arm was around her like we were a couple. I must have been wasted because I can't remember it at all. I'd ask to make a copy tomorrow.
Ding, ding.
I looked to the kitchen table and saw a phone--Ada's phone. Did she forget to take it to El's house? I picked it up and saw 4 unread messages; the most recent being Elisha. I thought she was with Elisha? I peeked my head around the corner and saw the boys were wrestling. I shouldn't open it but I really wanna see.

I had way too many questions. I guess I am a little relieved to know that she wasn't ignoring me, she just didn't have her phone with her but who is 'Bad Boy'? I really don't like that contact name. And why is El texting her when she's supposed to be at her house? I couldn't open her texts or she would know so I quickly flipped through her contacts and found Bad Boy. Luckily, I wouldn't have to search for a pen since Mr. Payne left one on the newspaper where he had an unfinished Soduko. I wrote the number down on my arm, hoping the contact would be in my phone. I quickly found the shot glasses as Louis yelled for me to hurry up.
"Come on Hazz! I'm trying to get a little alcohol in me tonight!" I laughed, trying to hide my feelings. Was Ada here?
"Sorry I couldn't find them." I handed the glasses to Liam and we all took a shot. Then we took another and another. We stopped for a while and kept talking and playing some music. It was easy coming up with songs while we were drunk. "I'm going to the toilet." I announced loudly though they paid no attention to me. I walked in and pulled out my phone, searching for the number. I should have done this before I decided to take shots. No, it couldn't be. Actually, it made complete sense. I scrubbed the number off of my arm, pissed.
"You! I pointed at Niall as they took another shot."
"Me?" He pointed to himself.
"Why are you a Bad Boy in Ada's contact list?"
"Huh?" He looked so confused. I walked towards him, ready to fight. I'm normally a very calm drunk but all I want to do is fight. Liam stepped in front of me not allowing me to take another step.
"Stop it Hazz. You're drunk." For some reason Liam could always snap out of his drunk-ness whenever he wanted.
"He want's my girl Liam! He can't have her!" I saw Niall roll his eyes and I lost it. I ran towards him and pushed him down. "You can't have her! She's mine!." All of the guys began pulling me off of him and then Zayn had to hold Niall back. "Now we're even. Both drunk, let's do this. I pulled my fists up but Liam was still holding me back.My words are so slurred and I know if I even try to do something I'd just fall over. Niall was held back by Louis and Zayn--he's either way stronger than me or Liam is just like a wall.
"Everyone stop!" That was not a man's voice. We all turned around and there was Ada in the hallway. None of us spoke and I felt ashamed but angry. I walked over to her and got too close.
"Why is he bad boy Ada? Why? I thought you wanted me! You said you wanted me!"
"I changed my mind!" She screamed in my face and then took a step back. Did she regret what she said or just feel really bad it came out that way? I could feel tears forming but I was so angry I turned around and went for Niall again.
"You piece of shit!" I jumped on top of him and hit him as hard as I could. When I was removed I continued talking. "I finally got Ada and you had to come here and take her from me! I've been waiting for so long and now you think you can have her!"
Niall stood up and walked towards me. I waited for him to throw a punch so I could hopefully do something to stop him. I don't know what but maybe I'd think of something. God I'm so drunk. "You didn't want her until she fell for someone else. You had years to fall for Ada Harry. Why now?"
He was right. I looked at Ada and she was crying. "Ada, I'm sorry." I walked towards her and she backed away. Before any of us could do anything she grabbed Liam's keys from the table and the nearest jacket. For some reason she already had shoes on and was out the door. Liam looked at me and pushed me to the couch, letting me know not to get up. Niall stood by Louis and Zayn with a bloody nose. What have I done?
Niall's Point of View
I sat on the front porch with Liam silently. "I didn't mean to cause any of this." He still didn't speak. He just stared at the house across the street."Look, if I have to, at the end of this semester I may be able to move back to Ireland."
"Shut the fuck up Niall. You aren't going anywhere." He scared me a little bit. No one ever scared me, only Jumper. I think he scared me because I felt like I needed him. I needed all of them. Maybe not Harry but hopefully he would eventually grow to like me--if he could ever forgive me for taking Ada from him. "Did you hurt Ada that night? Did you give her bruises?" I'm done lying.
"Yes, I did. I didn't mean to though, I apologized so many--"
"Shut up Niall." Tonight may be my last night here. I'm going to be disowned by my knew friends. "What's wrong with you? What's your deal? You are great around us but for some reason my sister felt the need to force herself on Harry so she wouldn't want to be with you. Why would she do that?"
"Because I'm an asshole. I don't know how to treat a woman but she's slowly teaching me. She's making me a better person and she doesn't even know it." Liam sighed and finally made eye contact.
"If you ever hurt her again--whether it's physically or messing with her heart--I'll make your life a living hell." Then he got up and walked back inside. Did that mean I could come back in? I guess I had to get my keys anyway. I removed the tissue that was over my nose and hoped it stopped bleeding. I stretched my legs and stood up, ready to go back inside. I couldn't drive yet, I'm way too drunk.
Harry was sitting with Liam in the kitchen, hopefully calming him down and the others were sitting on the couch taking more shots talking about their love interests. I laughed to myself and grabbed my keys. I'd just wait outside until I sobered up. When no one came out to check on me for about an hour I got in my car and started to leave. As I drove a police officer passed by with someone in the back. They pulled into Liam's driveway. I swear if that's Ada--and then she stepped out.
I turned off my lights and looked out of my window, watching all of the guys come in. Harry stepped out of his car with Louis and Zayn looking perfect.
