Real

Chapter 9

He puts his hand to his already, red face. I don't care if it hurt. He deserved it. I want to leave. I want to get out of here. But there's no where to go. I can't go to El, she's probably at the airport by now. So I just stand there, fuming. He didn't have to kiss me. That was a mistake.

He brings his hand down from his face. I can see the imprint my hand left. A big red mark, with fingers. He doesn't say anything, as he lightly pushes me to the side and goes into his room, shutting the door a little harder than usual.

I sit on the couch. What do I do now? The best idea that comes to my mind, is to sleep.

~Harry's Pov~

I'm packing everything for tour the next morning. There's a lot of stuff to pack. I also pack Ari's stuff. She's asleep on the couch and I don't want to wake her up. Especially after what happened last night.

I knew she wouldn't like it if I kissed her, but I didn't think she woulds slap me. Shows how much I know. But, damn, it hurt. She doesn't look like much, but she can hit just as hard as most guys.

I make a few peices of toast for breakfast. I'm finishing up the third piece when Niall walks into the condo. "Are you ready to go lad? Paul told me Ari was coming with us." He looks to Ari, asleep on the couch.

I nod my head. "We just started dating and I don't want distance to break us up so fast." I lie. Niall nods his head like he understands.

"Well wake her up, and let's go." Niall says, pouring himself some water from my kitchen.

I cautiously make my way toward Ari. I don't know how I'm going to wake her up without her freaking out.

I lightly put my hands on her shoulders. I shake her as lightly as possible and whisper, "Ari, babe, it's time to wake up we have to go."

She pushes my hands off her and turns away from me.

"Ari, hurry. Niall's here to drive us to the airport."

She tenses up at Niall's name, realizing someone else is here and she has to act. She finally sits up and rubs her eyes.

"But it's so early." She complains.

"I know. I'm sorry. You can sleep on the airplane." I hold out my hand and she reluctantly takes it. she gets up off the couch. "I packed all your stuff but left a pair of clothes on my bed." I tell her.

She nods and goes into my room to change. Niall turns to me. "You really like her don't you?" He asks.

"You have no idea."

We finally board the airplane. Our first tour destination is Florida. Ari is sitting next to me in the window seat. She has her headphones on, and her head is leaning back and her eyes are closed.

I check twitter for a little while. I have a TON of tweets about Ari. Some saying that they "ship Hari" I guess that's our couple name. I chuckle to myself a little. It is pretty clever.

The whole plane ride is actually pretty boring. There isn't much to do. I just mess around on my phone most of the time.

When we land I tap Ari on the shoulder. "Time to go." I mouth.

She takes off her headphones, grabs her carry on bag and puts her phone in her pocket. We get off the plane.

There are a bunch of fans, and paparazzi, waiting for us when we exit the plane. We all keep our heads down and follow Paul outside to the cars. It takes us longer than usual to get through the airport because there are so many people swarming us.

When we finally do reach the cars, we all get in and drive the twenty minutes to our hotel. When we get there Paul hands me a room key.

"This is for you and Ari. Room 315." I take it from him and grab my luggage. Ari grabs hers, and we head into the hotel.

Neither of us speak as we make our way through the lobby and into the elevator. This is a really nice hotel. A big chandelier in the lobby, and a carpeted elevator with mirrors on all sides.

I press the button that says 3 and the elevator take us to the third floor. I follow the signs until I find room 315. I slide in the roon key, and open the door. The first thing I notice is the queen size bed. It's the only bed in here. Ari is going to be pissed.

~Ari's Pov~

I follow Harry into out hotel room. I wish we didn't have to share. I would like to be as far away from him as possible. After he opens the door, and walks the first few feet into the room, he stops.bi push him aside and enter the room all the way. Why the hell did he stop? Then I see it.

Just one queen size bed. "Oh no. There is now way." I say. There is absolutely no way I am sleeping in the same bed as him. Never in a million years. I'd rather sleep on the floor.

He puts his suitcase down and sits on the bed and turns on the tv like its no big deal. Is he serious?

"I'm not sleeping in there with you tonight. " I say bluntly. I'm not.

"Fine. Sleep on the floor for all I care." He doesn't even look at me. I clench my fists. This guy is such a dick.

"Fine I will." I put my suitcase in a corner of the room.

"Fine. " his eyes are still glued to the tv.

I sigh as I come out of the bathroom. It's 10:30 and the idea of sleeping on the floor, isn't too exciting. Harry is already laying on the bed. I take a pillow off of the bed and lay it on the floor. I grab a little blanket and spread across the floor.

This sucks. It's so uncomfortable. There is no way I'm ever going to fall asleep like this.

Harry chuckles from the bed. "Don't be so stubborn and just get in bed."

"No." I mutter. I'm not being stubborn. Am I?

Harry stops chuckling. He's serious now. "Ari, just come on. You don't need to sleep on the floor."

The bed is starting to sound really nice right now. I finally give in and stand up.

"That's better." Harry smiles.

I ignore him and lie down in bed. I scoot as far away from him as possible. But he just scoots closer to me.

He puts his arm around my waist, just to tease me. I slap his arm and he takes it off. He laughs. "Don't like that?" He asks sarcastically.

"Shut up and go to bed."
