Paid To Be His Girlfriend
Bowling
Rachel's P.O.V.
"Harry! Why didn't you tell me you were so good at this!" I whined as he got his third strike in a row.
He turned to me laughing slightly.
"Well, I didnt realise you would be this bad" he chuckled.
I pouted, pretending to extremely offended, causing him to laugh more.
"C'mere, I'll show you how it's done" he took hold of my hand, pulling me closer to him.
I sighed, knowing it wasn't gonna make much of a difference how much he helped but let him try anyways.
He handed me the ball and began giving me instructions on exactly how to throw it.
"Don't worry, I got this!" I said confidently, tossing my hair.
He raised an eyebrow but gestured for me to go ahead and throw it.
I tried my best to follow his instructions and watched closely as the ball rolled down the lane.
"I got 6 down!" I yelled.
"Well done!" Harry grinned, holding up his hand for a high-5.
I could feel someones eyes on us so when I high fived him, I took hold of his hand.
He smiled slightly and pulled me a little closer so he could press his lips to mine.
I moved my lips in sync with his throwing my other arm around his neck carelessly.
When we parted I couldn't help but grin. We were extremely good at looking like a couple. We had pretty much the whole fanbase convinced we were together.
We continued with the bowling. I was terrible of course, but I convinced Harry to take a few of my goes so the score wasn't too bad.
Once the game was over we decided to go get some food.
"So what do you want?" he asked, slinging his arm around my shoulders casually as we walked out of the bowling alley.
"Pizza" I mumbled honestly.
I was pretty hungry from all that bowling.
"What kind of pizza?" he asked back.
"I dont know, pizza is pizza" I replied.
His phone started ringing and he pulled it out of his pocket quickly.
"Hello?" he answered.
I could hear something but couldn't tell who he was talking to.
"Yeah, that sounds good. I'm with Rachel right now but I'll be over later" he replied.
He was silent for a minute before talking again.
"Okay, I'll ask her" he said before turning to me.
"Hey Rach, d'ya wanna come to Louis' place later?" he asked.
I nodded slowly.
"She said yeah. We'll see you then" he said, before hanging up the phone.
We went to the nearest pizzeria and had something to eat. Of course some girls came up go us, looking for pictures with Harry.
I was used to it. However what I wasn't used to was people looking for pictures with me. So I was pretty surprised when one of the girls asked for me to get in a picture after she had taken one with Harry.
"Me?" I asked, a little confused.
Harry chuckled slightly and the girl just nodded shyly.
"Okay.. Mmh, yeah sure" I mumbled, surprised.
She smiled, using her phone to take a selfie.
Once she had she gave me a warm smile.
"Thanks so much! It was great to meet you guys. Your adorable as a couple!" she gushed before heading off again.
Harry raised an eyebrow at me.
"We're adorable" he repeated.
I shrugged.
"Well I am.." I trailed off.
He stuck his tongue out at me as I started laughing.
We went for a long walk after our food, hand in hand. Hopefully it was enough publicity to keep management happy.
I could feel people watching us. Many of them were taking pictures, but it wasn't anything new.
When we eventually got back into his car I sighed.
"You okay?" he asked, rubbing my arm gently.
I nodded.
"Being so good at bowling took a lot out of me" I joked.
He grinned.
"You wanna head over to Louis'? The other boys are coming too" he told me.
"Oh cool. Could I maybe invite the girls aswell?" I asked.
"Yeah, I'd say that'll be fine. Louis won't mind" he told me.
"Great" I smiled as he started up the car.
I sent a quick text to Megan and Kat, inviting them. They were my two best friends. I couldn't pick which one I was closer to if my life depended on it.
They were the only people (other than the other boys of course) that knew me and Harry weren't a real couple. However, I had never told them about my feelings for Louis. I was too ashamed to tell anyone. I could never be with Louis so what difference did it make anyways.
I rested my feet on the dashboard of the car.
Harry chuckled slightly at me.
"Turn the radio up there Rach" he asked.
I did as he wanted, turning it up to full volume.
"I love this song!" I exclaimed when I realised what was on.
I began singing along loudly.
"IF YOU GAVE ME A CHANCE I WOULD TAKE IT!" I started.
"ITS A S IN THE DARK BUT I'LL TAKE IT!" Harry sang the next line.
We continued on like that the whole way to Louis' place.
I really did love hanging out with Harry. He was becoming one of my best friends.
By the time he parked the the car I was almost crying I had been laughing so hard.
I couldn't help the nervous feeling in my stomach when we got to Louis door.
Harry didn't even bother knocking. He just opened the door and walked in.
I followed behind him nervously. I felt bad just walking in.
We found Louis along with the other three sprawled on the couch in the living room.
"Hey!" Harry called, making them all turn to look at us.
"Oh, hey guys" Louis got up quickly, coming over to pull me into a hug.
"C'mon, sit down" he grabbed hold if my arm to bring me to the couch with him.
This was the sort of thing that made me wish I had never agreed to this job.
As much fun as I had with Harry, it would never be the same as it was with Louis.
The worst part was knowing I'd never be able to do anything about it.
No matter what happened I wasn't allowed to be with Louis.
