Her Cousin **ON HOLD**

Harry's POV

"Bye." Alice called as I left her house. I shut the door behind me and began to walk down her pathway. I got to my range rover and looked up.

Jessica was walking to a car with some guy, laughing. He rested his arm around her waist, rubbing small circles on her lower back.

Rage flowed through my body as I turned on my heel and ran back inside. I don't know what came over me, but I found myself digging through my pocket for Alice's spare key. As soon as I found it, I shoved it in the key hole and ran inside searching for Alice.

I frantically ran down each hall, every thought of what Jessica and that guy could do, or even were doing angered me even more each second.

"Shit. Harry! You scared me!" Alice exclaimed as she threw on a shirt. I didn't bother looking as I grabbed her hand and pulled her out the house. "What's going on?"

I ignored her question and opened the passenger door, practically shoving her in.

When I got in the drivers side, I turned on the engine as Jessica was pulling out. Perfect.


Jessica's POV

"After you." Tobi said and opened the door for me. I laughed and walked through. Warm air rushed over my body and chattering filled the room. "Oh and blue is definitely your color." He winked.

I laughed and lightly slapped his chest- shall I say toned, cause he felt ripped! We walked up, and quickly our waiter sat us. As we walked through the crowded rooms, I felt something grab my hand. I jumped at the slight contact and saw Tobi's face fluster. I giggled and held his hand in mine, giving it a light squeeze.

We reached our table, and the room was barely filled. Only a long table filled the center if it, and was occupied by several people already. "Tobi!" I heard someone chant. I looked up and saw Louis...with some girl. They stood up and hugged Tobi.

I reached in my purse for my phone when a light voice interrupted me. "Hi!"'she exclaimed and pulled me into a big hug. Even though I didn't know this girl at all...I did know she was beautiful. Her long, brown hair was in waves and her makeup was light, but flawless. She was a good two or three inches taller than me, even while I was in heels, and her outfit was cute. She pulled away and pushed her hair back. "I'm Eleanor."

"Jessica" I smiled. She smiled revealing perfectly whit teeth, and led me to one side of the table.

"Well Jess. Can I call you that?" She asked. I laughed with her and nodded. "No! I'll call you... Blu cause I doubt anyone else will call you that and I love your outfit!"

I laughed again, and smoothed out my outfit. "I guess Blu is acceptable. Very...different, but acceptable." She giggled. "And I guess I'll call you Violet cause your outfits purple."

"Vi! I love it! Don't you just love cheesy nick names!" She exclaimed. I shrugged and laughed again. Mostly because this was one my first times getting out if the house in a long time. Also cause I really liked Eleanor. She seemed welcoming...and I needed a new friend to get over Alice. "Here's Perrie." She pointed to a girl with blonde hair, getting up. Of course, I knew she was a singer too, which made this whole thing even more surreal for me.

Perrie was beautiful too...hell all these girls were. They were celebrities....all famous people are stunning. Her blonde hair was pulled into a tight, high ponytail and she also had a nose ring. Her makeup was done perfectly, and the dress she wore fit her wonderfully. "Hi!" She said and smiled. I'm not going to even I get into how perfect their teeth are too! They're just all perfect....it's not fair! "Jessica."

"And this is Barbara!" Eleanor finished. I turned around and saw a stunning, tall girl. I soon recognized her...she was a model. I'm not even gonna start...

"Hey!" She said and pulled me into a hug.

"Alright, alright everyone! Stop being loud and sit down!" Louis yelled and sat down next to Eleanor. She slapped his chest and laughed as he pecked her cheek.

Tobi pulled me over to sit next to him. I sat between him and Barbara....who was next to Niall laughing. Perrie and Zayn sat together, and two attendants came in with two more chairs.

"We have two more people coming. Very special people." Louis said as he laughed with Eleanor.

Everyone was chatting amongst themselves....barely engaging with anyone else here. Is this how all dinners with them were?

My mind wandered to Eleanor. I never knew Louis had a girlfriend....and Darcy didn't either. I have a feeling she's going to flip.

"I didn't know you knew them!" I said to Tobi. He chuckled and his hair back.

"Well I don't really tell most people..."

"Than why me?" I asked....I was curious. We literally just met, and yet when I look at him sparks and butterflies go off in my stomach. It was different then the feeling I got with Drew....it was stronger then what we had. And I liked it.

When we did talk....I found we had a lot in common. Tobi felt easy to open up too, and he was humble about it. He complimented me constantly, and made me feel mad...like I was floating on clouds. I don't know if it's the fact that I'm pushing myself to get over everything happening right now, or of ots just because we have a connection...but there's no doubt that he's perfect...or at least in my eyes he is.

"Well...you're different. I don't know. I just feel...nervous and excited when I look at you. Uhh...I probably sound like a creep." He mumbled. I laughed and picked his head up with my fingers, so we were staring into each other's eyes.

"I don't think you're a creep." I giggled. He smiled and poked my small dimple. "You took the words right out of my mouth."

He smiled, and sooner than I knew it, his hands traveled up and lightly cupped my face and pulled mine closer to his. His warm breath lightly blew onto my skin, making me shiver. I felt his lips lightly brush mine.

"Here! We're here!" I heard a raspy voice practically yell. Tobi pulled away, looking upset and flustered. I giggled and grabbed his hand under the table, lacing our fingers.


Alice's POV

I had no idea where Harry was going. He was in a frenzy driving here, speeding and running half the red lights. He should be really lucky that the cop that pulled us over was nice and only wanted an autograph...

He had me text Louis that he was on his way...but I still had no idea where we were going...well that was until he pulled up to this fancy restaurant. I felt underdressed, mostly because I was in a crop top and a long, flowy skirt that was short in the front and long in the back with a pair of heels. Every person we passed was in a beautiful dress...and I could tell this was an expensive restaurant.

"Here! We're here!" He yelled, going into the room. I stopped outside of it, to fix my composure and level my breathing.

I leaned against the wall, and pushed my hair back. Blue eyes flashed through my mind...familiar blue eyes...blue eyes that shined and sparkled when he laughed and smiled. I shook my head away, in attempt to push the thoughts away.



He kissed down and up my neck. Soon he was up to my jaw line, prolonging and sloppily leaving kisses along it until he reached my chin. His blue eyes looked up at me, a smirk playing at his plump lips before slowly reaching my mouth, and leaving a long kiss there. I wrapped my hands around his neck as his rubbed circles in my sides.

"So." He kissed my chin.

"Fucking." He kissed my chest, making me moan and drip his hair snugly.

"Perfect." He kissed the center of my stomach.

I smiled and pulled him up to my face. He hovered over me, his blue eyes locking with my brown ones. "How am I so lucky to have you?" He whispered.

I rolled my eyes, and connected our lips once again. They moved in synch, and he let out groans every time I ran my hands through his messy blonde hair.

Fireworks exploded throughout me, as I smiled even more then I could. I was lucky to have him...Niall was all mine.




"Alice! Alice! Come on!" I looked up and saw Harry standing next to me. "Are you alright?"

"Fine...let's go." I hastily said and brushed past him into the isolated room. I hadn't even digested what that was...cause honestly, I don't even know what that was.

"Someone's bipolar." I heard Harry mutter. I let out a small smile, and thumped the back of his head.

"Shut up."

"Oi! Let's keep the touching to the bedroom you two!" I heard Louis shout. Of course he would say that in front of everyone...and K didn't even know half of the group.

"Shut it Louis, or I'll hurt you too. Harry's not my only punching bag here." I threatened.

A girl stood up, and squealed. "I know that attitude anywhere. Alice!"

"Hey El." I tried to say as she pulled me into a death grip. "Looking terrible as always."

"Hey!" Louis defended.

"Kidding! She looks better then I do!" I laughed. Eleanor laughed too and finally pulled away.

"Alice, Alice. What are we gonna do with you?" Another light voice rang throughout the room.

"Barbara!" I exclaimed. I ran up to her, and she pulled me into a hug too. "I missed you, doll."

She pulled away and smirked. "I should say the same thing...but I can't."

"Ahh, I taught you well."

Eleanor led Perrie over. "Hey Perrie. Long time no see."

"Hello Alice. I see you're getting off well." She smirked and jerked her head towards Harry who was talking to Louis.

I rolled my eyes and laughed. Harry came over, and placed his hand on my lower back pulling me closer to him. "I see you're friendly with all the girlfriends." He chuckled. I looked up at him, then to Barbara and back to him.

"All of you are girlfriends?" I asked. They all nodded And smiled, happily.

In that moment, I felt light headed and shocked. I felt as if I was punched in the face and thrown around. I knew Perrie was with Zayn...they're engaged for God's sake! I also knew Eleanor was with Louis..and Liam wasn't here.

No, no, no, no.

Holy shit.

"Excuse me" I whispered and ran out of Harry's grip. I ignored their calls and confused looks and ran out of their.

I never thought he would actually date someone...well actually I never thought about it. Shit.

I was too busy with everything else to realize he was trying to make an effort...and I passed on it. I'm too late. He's taken. But not by me.

Tears were already spilling as I reached the door. There he stood, with a confused look as he examined my horrid face. "Alice? W-what's the matter?" He managed to stutter out.

I was too stuffed up to speak. I felt light head, like I was about to pass out.

These days I spent, when I wasn't with Harry....it was occupied with thinking of him.. Cheesy and stupid, I know. But have you ever had that feeling that someone is so stuck to you that you just can't shake them? Well, that's what he is. He's like a drug.

I can't go a night without seeing those eyes when I shut my own. I can't zone out without hearing that laugh. I can't relax without seeing that smile. I can't black anything out without hearing his voice.

He tried to start something....and I don't realize it...how stupid am I?

I pushed past him and ran to the bathroom, locking the door. I leaned on the sink for support, and refused to stare at myself in the mirror. I feel lie, shit, I probably look like it.

Arms wrapped so around my shoulders, and I recognized them anywhere. Shushing began trying to calm me down, but it only made me more upset...and distraught.

I lost him...I lost any chance with him. Barbara's perfect...pretty, funny, rich, nice. What am I? A dumbass.

His voice followed by banging in the door made me sob even more. "I'm sorry Jess. I'm so sorry." I whispered.

"It's okay, it's ok" she cooed and shushed me.

"Just make it go away. Make it go away." I sobbed to Jess.

Jessica...my best friend.

Harry...my close friend.

Niall...my lost lover.
