"I heard you were in a first date today with some guy," Alison jumped when she heard a raspy voice just next to her ear. She tilted her head a little on the side and was met with Harry's smirk. Alison was sitting in the corner of the big room in the backstage, her laptop on her lap as she was editing some photos. There was just Lou fixing Niall's hair in the other side of the room as the others had still not arrived.

"Yeah, I was on a date," she looked up to Harry and mimicked his smirk.

"Rather good looking bloke, innit?" he raised his other eyebrow questioningly. He sneaked his hands on her shoulders and squeezed lightly which made Alison groan.

"I would really use a massage 'cause my shoulders are so stiff," she told him, getting enough of their game and changing the subject. He started to massage her shoulders slowly with just the right amount of pressure and Alison let out a sigh of satisfaction, closing her eyes. But then he stopped abruptly and she whined.

"I'll give you one later," he whispered right in her ear, nodding towards Lou and Niall that were busy chatting about something and not paying attention to them at all. Alison nodded at Harry and he moved a few meters away from her to sit on a chair and play with his phone like if they weren't talking.

After Alison had managed to edit a few photos and the silence had settled between them Harry opened his mouth. "About the date," he said and she didn't even need to look at him to know he had that smirk on his face again.

"Who's been on a date?" she didn't have time to say anything before Josh appeared in front of them. They both turned their head to look at him and Alison could hear Harry huffing next to her. He got up quickly, sending Josh a glare and muttering "no one's been on a date" under his breath before exiting the room.

"Wow, someone's on a mood once again," he said, taking the seat Harry had just sat on.

"So what you've been up to?" he asked and Alison couldn't really believe him. After completely ignoring her for a day or two he just came to talk to her like nothing had happened. So she didn't even spare a glance at his direction and just kept scrolling through the photos on her laptop.

"Hey I asked you a question," he said, a little irritation in his voice.

"Now you know what it feels like to be ignored," she snapped.

"You can't really blame me."

"And what that's supposed to mean?" she finally turned her eyes at his direction and stared at him accusingly.

"Well, first you tell me you're not looking for a relationship and then you're refreshing your memories and being all pleasant with Harry," he said as a challenge. She stared at him with an angry expression for a moment before huffing and shutting her laptop, placing it on the side before turning her attention back to him.

"You're so wrong," she hissed, eyeing Niall and Lou but they were still chatting lively on the other side of the room. "We're just... I'm just trying to get on with him. When this tour started we agreed not to think about what happened and just get through this," she told him as believable as she could.

"Look. Even though Louis or anyone else might not see it I do. Everyone else think you two are fighting right now so what you were doing with him just a moment ago?"

"I don't need to prove anything to you. But just to let you know you're wrong," Alison said, her eyes starting to water at just how angry she was. She got up and started to walk out of the room but just before she was about to get in the hall she heard his voice.

"Yeah, yeah. Keep telling yourself that," she needed all her willpower not to go back and slap him, so mad at him she was. She squeezed her fists and tried to think about Harry giving her massage later to calm her raging mind down.
