Carly’s POV

“You look hot.” Harry whispered into my ear while we waited for Danielle to come out of her dressing room.

“Thanks.” I looked down at my short skirt and huffed. “I don’t understand why this is considered ‘rebel’, I wear stuff like this all the time.”

They had me wearing a tight mini skirt with thick heeled boots, a PTV tank (that I picked out) and a red leather jacket. I wore stuff like this on a daily basis so I didn't get why it was called ‘rebel’. Harry loved it though, he couldn’t keep his eyes off my body.

“I don’t care what they have you in or what they call it, you look sexy.” He unlaced our fingers and slid his hand around my waist.

“Hey, keep it PG.” Danielle laughed from behind us.

“Whoa” I turned around and looked at her body.

She was wearing a short black dress that had cut outs on the sides and tall red heels. Her lips were red and her makeup was heavy but she looked hot.

“You look great.” Was all I could get out.

“Great? She looks hot.” A familiar voice added from a few feet away from us with a laugh.

I turned to see Liam standing with a smile and a rose. Even he looked hot in a leather jacket. I mean, who could deny that Liam Payne looked sexy in ‘edgy’ clothes. Harry looked hot too in his dark skinny jeans, V-neck and hair done. Damn, it was just a party of sexiness.

“Liam!” Danielle smiled jumping into his arms.

“Hi babe.” He wrapped his arms around her and chuckled.

When they pulled back, he walked over to us. He hugged Harry and then me before we all stood together and started talking.

“How long are you staying for?” Harry asked, still resting his hand on my hips.

“Probably a week.” He shrugged.

“Us too.” Harry smiled and looked at me.

“We should all hangout before we go home.” I offered knowing that’s what Harry was gesturing to.

“Sure, what do you guys have planned?” Dani asked shyly.

“Going to my brothers and then travelling.” I mumbled out.

“Okay, and that’ll be great publicity for all of us.” Danielle was acting shy but I didn't know why, she was almost never nervous.

I looked up at Harry with pleading eyes before looking toward the doorway. He nodded slightly letting his lips touch my forehead softly.

“Liam, let’s go get a drink.” Harry completely understood.

They walked away laughing about some stupid joke that I didn't care about. I looked at Danielle and waited for her to look at me but she never did, her eyes were glued to the floor.

“Danielle, what’s up?” I finally asked.

“Nothing.” She shrugged but knew I wasn’t believing her lie. “I can usually push past my insecurities when I model but not today. These clothes aren’t me at all and I feel like everyone can tell.”

“You look great, none of us were lying when we said you look hot. I usually have to bury mine too and it makes it harder to do a good job but I can tell that you are good enough to do a great job.” I wasn’t lying when I said that.

“Thanks Carly.” Her eyes were filling with tears.

“You maybe one of my best friends but I really look up to you, as both a model and a person.” A tear slipped out of her eye. “Hey, stop crying or you’ll mess up your makeup.”

“Then stop talking.” She giggled. “Thank you Carly, I love you.”

“I love you too.” We wrapped our arms around each other.

“Is everything okay, ladies?” A female voice rang with worry from behind me.

We pulled back and saw Michelle, also dressed in ‘rebel’ outfit, was looking at us. I nodded and let go of Danielle completely.

“So where’re your dates?” She asked looking around. “I know that you guys have boyfriends.”

“They're getting drinks I think.” Danielle shrugged.

“Oh.” Michelle looked around.

“Hello.” Harry draped his arm over my shoulder. “I’m Harry.”

“Hi, I’m Michelle.” She smiled politely.

“It’s nice to meet you.” Harry sounded so formal.

“And I’m Liam.” He sounded shy.

Michelle nodded before a young woman in revealing clothes walked over to us. Harry looked at her body and then shrugged. I looked at him in a protective way, his eyes slid down my body as he pulled me closer.

“Riley, this is Carly, Harry, Liam and Danielle.” Michelle pointed to each of us.

“Hi.” Riley waved shyly.

“You look hot.” I blurted out. “Ya know, in the most normal way possible…”

“Thank you.” She giggled.

“Well, now that everyone knows everyone else, we should get going.” Michelle cleared her throat and headed for the doorway.

We followed behind Riley until a dark haired guy met her, I couldn’t see his face but I could see how his suit outlined his muscles. They laced their fingers together and walked close to each other. I felt Harry slip his hand down my back and rest on my hip.

I love when he pulls me close like he’s doing now. Being this close to him made my stomach flutter. And his cologne…I couldn’t get enough of it.

“Babe?” Harry mumbled into my ear while we waited for the elevator.

“Yes?” I turned my head toward him as he held both of my hips.

“You look gorgeous tonight.” His breath hit my neck.

“Mhm, that’s why you checked Riley out.” I didn't look at him.

“I may have looked at her but, in the nicest way possible, she’s nothing compared to you.” His arms snaked around my waist completely.

I turned around in his arms and looked into his eyes. He leaned forward, letting his breath hit my lips. With a smile creeping onto both of our lips, I moved forward and kissed him. Our lips moved together until the elevator dinged, ripping us from our moment.

“We’ll continue this later.” I pecked his lips again and turned to the elevator.
