The Bad Boy Effect
Ding Dong
Harry"s Point of View
"I'm not just going to run back to her like nothing happened." I know Liam is her brother and he wants her to be happy but she really messed with me.
"You know you're going to forgive her so why don't you just do it now?"
"No." I passed the football to him with more force, "do you not understand what she did? She tried to convince me I hurt her and wasn't going to tell me!"
"Okay mate, settle down. I'm just saying you should talk to her." I continued my rant, not really listening to what Liam has to say,
"Just because we hooked up doesn't mean anything. And we didn't even mean to hook up, we didn't know we were with each other."
"I really don't want to know that."
"And even when we do make up she's just going to go running back to that tool."
"To be fair, he's changed a lot since he's gotten here."
"And maybe I don't even want to be with her. Maybe I just want to sleep around and be free! Ahhh I can't stand her!" I pulled at my hair, "She drives me insane Liam!"
When I finished I sat down in the wet grass and Liam joined me.
"I really don't think she's going to be running back to Niall. I talked to him and he's starting to realize that his feelings aren't as strong as he thought. And I heard my mom talking to Ada about you guys. She said you remind her of my dad when they were dating." He chuckled, making his shoulders rise, though I didn't really understand what he meant.
"I'm not doing this anymore Liam. I'm through with Ada."
"Alright, whatever you say Hazz." We both know I'm just lying to myself.
We continued playing football and talking, mainly about One Direction. I told him how some girls asked us for our autographs and he found it hysterical but I know in reality he's just really jealous. He said Ada's been working really hard on our next concert which is in three weeks so we need more music. This is definitely going to be tough considering the thought of being in the same room as Niall makes me want to gag.
Ada's Point of View
Monday Afternoon (rehearsal)
"Hey guys, so the show is going to be the last weekend of April which is in three weeks for those of you trying to count right now." Louis and Zayn are so adorable. I took my sweatshirt off and tossed it on a chair; now in only a pink tank top and yoga pants. It's way too hot in here. The boys should be scared today; I'm not in the mood for jokes. And I'm on my period.
I really don't want this whole thing to be weird so I am deciding to throw it all out there. I stood in front of just the guys today; no extra musicians or Oakley.
"So, I have a few things to go over. Let's start with: our next concert will not be held in this building; it will be held in a small stadium since we have so many people already asking for tickets."
All of the guys looked thrilled. I definitely am too, I'm just in a bad mood today. When they calmed down I continued,
"Second: Niall and I broke up, Harry and I hooked up, and I'm on my period. Oh, and Harry gave me these." I pointed to the two hickeys he happily placed on my neck. I bet he's not too proud of them anymore. I know he did it just to piss Niall off. I clapped my hands together, "So, now that all of that is out of the way let's begin." I smiled and reached into my bag.
The guys sat in awe, wondering if I really just said that. Niall was as pale as a ghost and Harry was so red it looked like he could burst any minute now.
"Why are we still sitting? Come on, up!" This practice was going to be fun for me.
We finished up after two hours and even I was sweating. I handed the boys the new schedule.
"Because we have three weeks we'll only be meeting Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 8 to 9:30. Tomorrow we'll meet at the studio where Niall works so I can hear some of your new stuff." This whole practice has been pretty quiet. "I'll text you guys more information if I have to. Any questions?"
Zayn raised his hand. I nodded and he spoke, "Has anyone gotten back to you about us?"
"No, not yet. Because of your concerts the word has been spreading and you guys have over 1,000 twitter followers. I have questions asked all the time that we'll be saving for the performances." I sighed, trying not to be so moody. Rehearsal has made me a little happier, "I am really proud of all of you. I know I can be hard to be around sometimes but I think you all are amazing." I gave each of them an equal smile and asked if they had anymore questions. When no one spoke I got in the car with Liam before I had the chance to talk to anyone else and we left.
Niall's Point of View
Harry, wait a sec." I know he doesn't want to talk to me but we have to work through this. "Hey!"
He stopped and looked at me with exhaustion. "What Niall?"
"I'm sorry for lying. I didn't know what to say or how to tell you and I--"
"Save it Niall. I don't really care." He began walking again but I caught up.
"Are you and Ada--"
"No, we're not together. Yes we hooked up. No we did not have sex. Yes I'm still furious with both of you and yes I'm happy she dumped your sorry ass. You never deserved her and I told her that from the beginning. Any more questions?"
Wow, I didn't know he had that in him.
"I--uh, no, I guess not. But Harry." He stopped again. "Can we just try to get along? We've been doing great for so long."
"Niall, don't you understand? She's going to eventually want to be with one of us and when I'm not so pissed anymore, I'm probably going to fall for her again. And I sure as hell know you will be the same. And once that happens, this is going to repeat all over again."
"No, it's not. Ada and I are done. We're done for good."
"What?"
My eyes have never felt so heavy. "I told her she'd be better with you. I hurt her, that's what I do. You'd never hurt Ada. Never. You guys should have already been together when I got here." I paused for a minute and wiped a tear away. "One of the first times I saw her she was playing music with you at Harper's. I thought you guys were a couple and I was going to take her from you anyways. I was selfish back then but I can't be selfish anymore. I'm not just apologizing for putting the blame on you. I'm apologizing for interrupting your conversation at the first party I went to and I'm apologizing for trying to make you feel like you don't deserve her because you do."
I was out of words and Harry looked at me like I was out of my mind. Maybe I am, but whether I love her or not, I care for her more than I've ever cared for anything else and I know she'll be happier with Harry.
"Umm, wow, I wasn't expecting that." I laughed,
"Yeah, neither was I."
"Look Niall, when we hooked up, neither one of us knew we were with each other. We were both drunk and it was dark. I didn't realize it until we--it just took a while to realize it. I was pissed at you but if I knew from the beginning it wouldn't have happened."
"Yeah, I know." I sighed, it really hurts knowing she hooked up with him the same night we broke up.
"So are you guys talking? Are you friends?"
"I haven't talked to her since Saturday and she's been avoiding me." he laughed,
"Same. I can't believe that little stunt she pulled in there. Telling everyone what happened."
"Yeah, I thought I was going to kill her."
Harry and I continued talking for another few minutes and then we went our separate ways; somehow friends again. I guess Ada knows how to bring people together; even if it is from a sucky situation.
Ada's Point of View
"You sure you don't wanna come? It's Friday Ada! That means craziness at Sarah's!" Liam yelled up the stairs.
"Positive. I'm going to be a geek tonight!" I heard him laugh and walk out the door.
Tonight I'm staying in, doing some homework, and maybe even going to sleep early. Ever since Oaks started dating Elisha they've been hanging out nonstop so I don't get as much Oakley time but I'm happy for him.
"Hey sweety, dad and I are watching a movie. Do you want to join us?" I smiled at my mom,
"Yeah, I'd love to." I put on my pajamas and headed downstairs with my parents. I haven't done this for a very long time and one night without alcohol and craziness sounds good to me. I never even began drinking until Niall. I guess that's another thing to put on my 'Niall's Cons List'.
I heard Niall and Harry have made up which is good, so I'll let them hang out this weekend. I've still stayed away from both of them besides rehearsal. I don't feel the need to jump into anything with them anymore. I'm trying this thing where I don't hop back and forth from two amazing guys.
The movie Despicable Me began and I laid my head on my moms lap as she braided my hair. Dad sat in his lazy chair and would probably be out within the next ten minutes.
"I love you mom." I said looking up at her.
"I love you too little birdy." She tapped my nose with her index finger and smiled, happy that I'm here with her. I'm freakin' 16. This is what I'm supposed to be doing.
The film went on and I found myself dozing off within the first thirty minutes....until something woke me up.
dinggg, donggg.
The doorbell.
"I'm not just going to run back to her like nothing happened." I know Liam is her brother and he wants her to be happy but she really messed with me.
