I'M BACK!

(Harry POV)

“Shut up! It does not look like a girls flat.” I rolled my eyes as I gave the lads a tour of Spencer and mine new apartment in London.

“It does dude.” Zayn laughed along with Niall.

“Whatever, she’s happy so I’m happy.” I shrugged.

“And when she’s happy you get your dick sucked I’m guessing?” Louis nudged me.

“Exactly.” I smirked.

“So why did you need three bedrooms here and only two in New York?” Liam asked curiously.

“My family lives farther away than hers so we figured it’d be nice to have extra space. And it honestly didn’t really matter to us as long as we could afford the place and we liked it.”

“Harry this place is huge. It’s practically a house.” Zayn laughed sitting down on the couch.

I shrugged, handing the guys all a beer. Spencer was out with Rachel and Ella, leaving the guys and me some time to hang out, not that we didn’t get enough of that on tour. It was different though when we had breaks, especially now that I spent mine looking for places to live with my girlfriend. After spending a few more days in New York settling into our place there, we came to London to look for a flat. We almost instantly found this one and fell in love. It was an open floor plan, with huge ceilings and windows. It had a little backyard area with a deck perfect for entertaining our friends. We had to have it. It was almost double of what we were paying for the place in New York but it was perfect.

“So what’s buying these places together mean?” Liam questioned, always the serious one.

“Nothing really. We just wanted a place to stay together.” I said.

“Harry couples don’t just buy flats together. Let alone flats that are this nice.” Louis added.

“Yeah man, he’s right. Both places could be actual homes.” Zayn mentioned.

Louis and Zayn were the only one to see the apartment in New York when they flew over to help us move our stuff in.

“Guys, seriously, nothing is going to be different. We’re just going to live together now.”

“Couples move in together, then get engaged soon after then get married then have babies.” Niall went on.

“She doesn’t want any of that right now. Trust me, we’ve talked. Although she did mention in New York that she didn’t want the place we bought to be where ‘we raised our kids’ so that’s a start I guess.”

“You can’t wait to marry this girl can you?” Liam smiled at me.

I shook my head no. “Just like you can’t wait to put the ring you bought Rachel on her finger.”

“I still don’t know when to do it.”

“After the tour?”

“Yeah, plan something super romantic. Take her on a holiday to some tropical place and woo her with fancy dinners and champagne.” Louis added.

“I’ll figure it out.” Liam shrugged. “What about you Lou?”

“I’m certainly not tying any knots with anyone within the next 3 years. I’m too young for that shit.”

“But you want to be with Emily right?” I asked.

“Oh for sure, definitely will marry her one day, just not anytime in the near future. We both agree that we’re young and have plenty of time to wait before then. Hell, Niall will be married before Emily and me.”

“Hey that’s not funny! I’ve actually been getting pretty close to someone lately so you guys can shut the hell up.” He rolled his eyes, finishing off his beer heading towards the kitchen.

“He met a bird and we didn’t know?” I laughed. “We gotta get to the bottom of this when he comes back in here.”

“I wonder if she’s a famous girl. He never works out with the famous ones. He needs a normal girl like Rachel or Spencer.” Liam said.

“Don’t say Spencer, he’s already had her.” Louis said causing Zayn to bust out in laughter. I rolled my eyes chuckling. The subject wasn’t as touchy as it used to be, but I still didn’t see the need for it to be brought up. Niall came back into the living room with another round of beers for everyone. I placed my practically empty can on the coffee table, opening the fresh one.

“I’m actually bringing her to the movie premiere we’re going to tomorrow.” He shrugged.

“FUCK!” I shouted receiving weird looks from everyone, as I dug in my pocket for my phone.

“Forgot to tell Spencer about that, huh?” Louis laughed, swigging his beer.

“Yes, completely slipped my mind.” I pressed send on her number, hoping she wouldn’t be too mad I was giving her less than 24 hours to find something to wear.

“Hey babe.” She answered cheerful.

“Hey, um I kinda forgot but the lads and I are going to the premiere of the movie This Is The End tomorrow.” I paused.

“Okay, I can find something to do.”

“No Spencer, we’re all bringing dates, Emily is flying in tomorrow morning, Rachel will be there, Niall even has a date….” I trailed.

“Harry, I don’t have anything to wear. Go as Zayn’s date.”

“The bloke isn’t even going. He’s going home in the morning, his mums having some sort of procedure and he wants to be there.”

“Oh is she alright?” I heard the concern in her voice.

“Yeah, yeah she’s fine, just a little checkup type thing I guess but regardless, maybe you can find a nice dress to wear tomorrow? Rachel and Ella can help. Ella will actually be there too. I don’t know how I forgot to mention it. You can use my card if you want.” I shrugged feeling awful for not telling her sooner.

“I’ll find something, don’t worry babe.”

“Okay, nothing too fancy but still nice.”

“I’ll be good, Rachel and Ella do this all the time, we’ll figure it out.”

“Alright, are you coming home tonight?” I smiled, home what a weird thing to hear myself say.

“Yeah, I’ll be home a little later, we’re probably going to go out for a bit after we finish shopping.”

“Sounds good, the lads and I are just having a laugh here. I’ll talk to you later.”

“Love you.” she said hanging up.

“She’s not mad?” Liam asked.

“You know Spencer, any reason to shop.” I laughed along with the rest of the guys.

I leaned back in my new recliner I just had to have and smiled. Life was pretty good, I had great friends, a good job, an even more fantastic girlfriend, and a beer in my hand. What else did a guy need?







(Spencer POV)

“Was that Harold?” Ella asked as I hung up the phone.

“Yeah, apparently we’re all going to some movie thing tomorrow?” the girls nodded. “Well he just told me right now, I have to find something to wear.”

“Leave it to Harry to tell you last minute.” Rachel giggled.
“I guess we should finish up here then go shop.” I sighed, taking another bite of my dinner. The girls agreed, finishing their meals.


“What about this one?” Rachel asked.

“No, I don’t like the fringes at the bottom.”

“This one?” Ella held up another dress.

“Not a fan of the color.” I sighed, just about to give up in this store and move on.

We had been to a few stores already and nothing caught my eye yet.

“So what’s up with you and Harry buying these flats together?” Ella asked curiously as she fingered through a rack.

“We just decided to move in together, literally nothing more.” I shrugged not really comfortable talking about this in public with all the random ears around. “Do we have to talk about this here?”

“No ones listening babe.” Ella shrugged in response. “Are you guys planning on taking the next step now that you’re playing house?”

“No, hell no!” I almost laughed.

“I had to ask!” she rolled her eyes holding up another dress, I shook my head no.

“Then what’s going on?”

“Ella, I swear we just wanted to make seeing each other easy. You know we don’t always have the easiest time seeing each other when we have time off at the same time.”

“He’s going to have a lot of free time in a couple months you know that right? He’s going to drive you insane.”

“What do you mean?” I gave her a weird look.

“When tours over he has a few weeks of heavy media stuff, then after that he literally has nothing to do. He’s going to be up your ass.” She shrugged.

“Well we haven’t really been together much throughout our entire relationship, maybe it’ll be good for us to have some time to ourselves.”

“It’s why we broke up honestly.” Ella shared.

I cocked an eyebrow. “Because he wanted to hang out?”

“Well I guess it’s different, we were kind of using each other for shags and publicity, but once he wanted to get into real relationship things, as in actually spending every night together, and dates, and just spending every last minute together, it was smothering.” She scoffed.

“Well I think I would actually like that kind of stuff. I’m working a lot and he’s on the road so we’re lucky if we talk on the phone once a day. Maybe it’ll be good for us to act like a regular couple for a little.”

“Was it like that for you Rachel?” Ella asked.

“I mean yes and no. I’m not as busy as both of you so I see Liam more on tour then either of you.”

“That’s true. I never thought of it that way.” Ella smiled, moving to the next rack. She had me a little worried though, sure I missed Harry like crazy and wanted to spend a lot of time with him. But I couldn’t handle him smothering me.

“Liams been acting weird lately, and I don’t know why.” Rachel randomly blurted out.

“What do you mean, weird?” I asked.

“Like every time we go out he seems distant, he stutters a lot, he always seems flustered. I’m worried something’s wrong. He’s been like that ever since…” she paused looking around. “..the scare.” She whispered.

“I wouldn’t worry about Rach, you guys are a forever thing.” How do you make sure she feels okay, without coming right out and saying.. ‘don’t worry he’s bought a ring and is going to propose and is probably looking for the right moment’.

“I don’t know Spencer, he really is starting to scare me.”

“Anyone with eyes can see he’s madly in love with you babes.” Ella added, without even being aware of how in love he really was.

“I’m just freaking out. I’m probably over reacting.” Rachel sighed.

“Don’t worry about it, I’m sure if anything was wrong he’d talk to you.”

I was insanely happy at how well Rachel and Ella had been getting along lately. They never hit it off while Harry was dating her, but something about them now was working. Maybe it had something to do with me, I wasn’t sure, but I liked that we all could go out together. Rachel even told me she went to lunch with just Ella the other day.

“How about this?” Ella held up the perfect dress. It was all black with a lace back and sleeves.

“Yes, yes yes yes. It better fit.” I snatched it out of her hands and headed towards the fitting rooms. I slipped out of my clothes and placed it over my head. I tugged it down so it fell perfect. It was tight, and thigh length. But it looked perfect. It fit in all the right places. I smiled pushing the curtain aside to show the girls.

“Oh my god.” Rachel smiled.

“You look fit!” Ella smirked.

“This is okay for the event though right?”

“Yes, it’s perfect!” Ella smiled again.

“I’m getting it. Can you get me a pair of black pumps to pair with it?” I asked.

Rachel wandered over to the shoe section, leaving me and Ella staring at me through the mirror.

“Harry is going to go nuts with you in that. It shows the perfect amount of everything. It’s classy yet extremely sexy.”

“I love it.” I added, taking the shoes that Rachel had brought over. Everything looked great.

“Should we go to the pub the celebrate?” Ella smirked.

“Celebrate what?” I laughed.

“You finding a dress, both Rachel and you being in love, anything and everything!”

I shrugged, “I’m down. Rachel?”

“I could use a beer or two.” She smiled.

And with that we were off. Ella had her driver pick us up and take us a bar downtown. This is exactly what I needed a good girls night out.






(Harry POV)

“Well it’s practically two in the morning, I should be going.” Niall laughed, stumbling as he stood.

“Dude you can’t drive.” I laughed with him.

“Yo Zayn, is Jack still coming to get you?” he shouted even though they were a few feet apart.

“Yeah man. I just called him.” Zayn finished off another beer.

“Dude, we cleaned your fridge out of beer tonight.”

“That was two 30s. Thanks a lot.” I laughed. It was safe to say we were all a little wasted. We had collectively finished 60 beers all together. I had 11 just myself. I was starting to worry about where Spencer was though.

“Dude, Spencer called like an hour ago and she said they were leaving. Where could they be?” Liam began to pace. “I’m not leaving until they come back. I don’t want to go home without Rachel.”

“Spencer is always terrible at telling time. They’ll be back soon enough.” I wasn’t too worried. “You can always crash here if you want.”

“I’m pissed, Rachel probably is too, I don’t think you want us in your flat tonight.”

“I’m catching your drift. I probably don’t want you here either.” I chuckled thinking about how Spencer was when she drank. “How are you getting home though?”

“We’ll take a cab. I don’t really care.”

“You can hitch a ride with us.” Zayn shrugged standing up. “Jacks here.”

“Have you not been listening?”

“Not really.” Zayn and Niall looked at each other and laughed.

“I’m waiting until Rachel gets back just to be safe.”

“Well see you blokes tomorrow then.” Zayn headed to the door.

“Don’t wear yourselves down too much tonight then.” Niall winked shutting the door.

“I don’t see how we all get on so well these days.” Liam laughed sitting back down.

“We really did have a rough time at the beginning. I remember that.”

“You and Louis hated each other.” Liam smiled. “And look at you guys now.”

“We can’t spend more than a few days apart.” I said rolling my eyes.

“If you guys didn’t have serious girlfriends, people would start to talk.”

“They already do with the girlfriends.” I laughed. “Speaking of, when are you doing it?”

“I was thinking when we go to Hawaii. She’s never been there so I got us a trip out there. I heard it’s incredibly romantic. I think that’s when I’m going to do it. You think she’ll say yes?”

“She’s gonna say yes a million times. You’ve been together 4 years, you barely fight, she’s supportive, you guys almost had a kid together for god sakes! Yes, she’s going to say yes. Stop worrying.”

“Fuck dude, what if she was actually pregnant though?”

“The same as if any of our birds get knocked up. We’re there for them like we are now. Nothing changes, we become a family. And you know no matter what happens any of us would always be there.”

“You really want to settle down with Spenc, yeah?”

“I mean who wouldn’t? She’s great.”

“Just be careful.” He sighed.

“Why?”

“She’s cheated and does drugs.”

“Yes she did cheat once and did drugs but not anymore. I confided in you cause I didn’t think I would be able to tell the other guys.”

“I’m just looking out for you man. I like the girl a lot, don’t get me wrong, I just want everything to go perfect for you guys.”

“No one is perfect, we’ll figure it out.”

We heard hushed giggles through the door right before it swung open. We watched as our drunk girlfriends stumbled into the flat, arm linked through arm. Spencer dropped a few shopping bags on the floor.

“Did you guys have a good night?” Liam asked, standing to help Rachel.

“So fun, I love this girl.” Rachel booped Spencer on the nose.

“No, I love you.” Spencer and Rachel wrapped their arms around each other, embracing tight. As they pulled away Rachel placed a quick kiss on Spencers lips.

“Alright! Looks like you’ve had enough fun for one night.” Liam stifled a laugh.

“That was pretty hot though.” I whispered into Spencers ear.

“See you lot tomorrow.” Liam rolled his eyes as he and Rachel left the apartment.

“You know that’s not the only thing I got going on that’s hot.” Spencer smirked as soon as the door shut.

She began to walk towards the hallway, carelessly tossing her shirt over her head. I stood stuck in place, damn she was hot and I was lucky. I walked towards the way she went and noticed a trail of clothes leading directly into the bedroom. I opened the door to find her completely naked on the bed.

“What took you so long?” she smirked.

“Don’t worry about it, I’m here now.”

I began to undress and crawled on top of her.

“Now, are you going to make love to me all night or are you going to just stare at me all night?”

“A little bit of both.”
