After my blood turns in to alcohol
Chapter 20
Emma's p.o.v
''I just feel like we can't tell the lads'' Harry said, we were laying in his bed cuddling since nobody was home. It started to bother me that suddenly we were only hanging out in secret and it annoyed me even more what he just had told me. ''Why?'' I simply asked ''uh, Louis will kill me?''
''He'll get over it''
''That's not it though. I...wanna be....sure first. Before we tell''
''You're not sure of me?'' I swallowed hard.
''It's more about me. I wanna know exactly what I feel first. 'Cause I don't wanna break your heart'' he whispered the last part and I fought the tears in my eyes. How can love be so difficult? It's not like in movies were you confess your feelings and live happily ever after. Real life is more complicated than that. ''I'll wait'' I decided, it was either that or losing him. And i can't lose him. ''I'll be here, whenever you figure out what you feel, I'm here'' I said and it was almost like I regretted it as soon as I said it. If I only had known how long I would have to wait.
Harry's p.o.v
You need to tell her, Harry. You need to tell her why this is so hard for you. Tell her. Just tell her, damn it. I opened my mouth to speak but closed it when my phone started ringing. 'Louis calling' it said and I sat up on the bed. It didn't feel right having his little sister lying on my chest while speaking to him. ''Hey mate'' I answered ''you need to get here as soon as possible, no immediately'' he said and I couldn't tell if something good or bad had happened. ''Why is something wrong?'' I asked making Emma sit up in fright. ''No, just get her'' Louis said before hanging up. ''Nothing's wrong but he said I should get there immediately'' ''that means he's expecting you, he'll see that I'm in the car with you'' Emma said and stood up. ''So? We were friends before...this'' ''okay'' she mumbled and we walked out to my car.
''Glad you could join us, Harold'' Liam said when I walked in to the Tomlinson's kitchen with Emma behind me. Louis, Liam, Niall and Louis' dad all sat around the kitchen table. I sat down next to Liam and noticed Emma hanging around in the background. ''What's going on?'' I asked, ''someone saw your youtube channel and emailed a link to this record label and...they were very interested'' Louis' dad said ''what does that mean exactly?'' Niall asked. I cold tell by the way he sat, talked and scratched his head he didn't want to build up his hopes. I mean I've known the lad since I was four years old I can tell when he needs to take a shit. ''You've been discovered lads. They want you to be opening act for this band called The Wanted'' he said and everyone's jaws dropped.
Niall was the first one to speak, or squeal I should say. ''Oh my god we're gonna be famous, we're gonna get so many girls I can't believe it'' we all laughed at his silly mind ''correction, Harry, Louis and I are gonna get girls. You're in a relationship, mate'' Liam said making us laugh even more. ''Do you believe it, Haz? Chicks dig guys that are in bands, and with your curly locks you're gonna be the biggest heartthrob'' Louis laughed and I forced a laugh with him. He didn't know there was only girl I even wanted to be with. I turned to see she wasn't in the kitchen anymore. She must have heard mine and Louis' conversation. ''Lads, lads we need to go over the information before you get too carried away. Tour starts in one month, it will last form march to may and then you get a month of and then there's tour all summer. July to September. This is such a great opportunity for you guys if you do it well maybe even the record company will give you a record deal!?'' is this even happening right now? ''What about school?'' I asked, ''I have that covered, IF this is something you guys want. And if you do this is something that you need to do 100%, you can't be in it for the girls'' Louis' dad said.
''YES, I WANNA DO IT'' Niall screamed with Louis and Liam agreeing and then they all turned to me. ''Of course'' I said, because this was something I had always wanted, I just never thought I would be able to. ''Then all you need is your parents permission, Louis you have mine and your mother's'' ''BYE'' Niall screamed and ran out of the house. I swear this guy.
''Guess I'm going home to do some convincing too'' Liam said and I followed him and Louis to the door. ''Five months, huh?'' we turned to see Emma sitting on the staircase looking like she was about to cry. All I wanted to do was hug her. But I couldn't. Not here. ''You said we wouldn't be separated'' she said cracking her voice looking at Louis before standing up and running upstairs. A second later we heard her door slam closed. ''Sorry I have to..'' Louis began ''it's fine, she needs you'' Liam said and we both left the house.
Louis' p.o.v
''Em, can I come in?'' I knocked on her door. When she didn't say anything I opened the door finding her sitting on the floor with her knees up to her chin. Just staring at nothing. I sat down next to her and no one spoke for a good five minutes. ''I won't go'' I whispered and all the happiness that had filled my body the past thirty minutes disappeared. We were sat there for almost half an hour without her making a sound. ''Do you want me to leave?'' I finally asked, she nodded her head slowly and I stood up with a sigh and left her room.
''Payno?'' I knocked on Liam's bedroom door after being let inside the house by his sister, ''come in, mate'' I heard Liam say and opened the door. He was sat by his computer uploading a new cover of ours on youtube. ''How's Emma?'' Liam asked as I threw myself on his bed letting out a loud sigh. ''I....I fucked up'' I said, ''look, Tommo, I don't know what kind of deal you had with your sister about being separated and all that but do you see the chance we have here? You would be a fool to turn it down, besides we're not One Direction without Louis Tomlinson'' his words made me let out another sigh ''I'm sorry Tommo, I'll always give it straight to you. If you wanted someone sensible you should have called Harry'' ''whatever'' I muttered.
Harry's p.o.v
''Thanks for coming over, I didn't know who to speak to'' I said as I let Niall in my house. We went up to my room and sat down on my couch. ''What's going on? Don't tell me your mum isn't letting you go on tour?'' ''no no, nothing like that'' I said and Niall took a breath of relief. ''I don't know how to say this..'' I began ''there's this girl that I'm...interested in. Like for real this time, not this bullshit that I only want to shag her. I think I genuinely like this girl. But you know me, Ni. I'll screw it up. I always do'' ''wow, Haz. I'm happy you found someone considering...'' ''that's the thing. It's always 'considering that thing'. I can not let myself fall in love with her because of that thing'' I sighed. ''I told her to give me some time to figure it out but I'm scared she will leave because I can't commit..'' ''you need to tell her. She's not gonna wait forever, bud'' Niall said with an apologetic smile. ''So who is she?'' he asked ''it's....Emma'' I turned away so I didn't see his reaction. ''You're fucked'' I turned back to Niall with my eyebrows raised ''thanks mate?'' ''come on, Harry'' Niall whined ''of all the chicks out there you had to pick her? Our best friend's little sister. It's like you want to set yourself up for destruction. This is destructive behavior, Haz'' ''do you think I planned this?'' I yelled making him jump. ''Of course not. You don't plan who you fall in love with'' Niall said and I nodded before realizing what he said ''I'm not in love'' I blurted out. ''Yeah, try tell her that'' he smirked.
Have been waiting for so long :(
