The weekend passed by slow as hell, because Niall and the boys weren't here to distract me. They had been texting to me to tell me about what they were doing, about practices and such, and how much they missed home. Their audition was going to be filmed on the Monday, then aired on the Thursday. I hoped with every fiber of my being that they would make it through. They have to, they're incredibly talented and amazing, the judge's would be stupid if they didn't let them through.

I was lounging on my bed, listening to my ipod. I was singing along to Please Don't Let Me Go, when my phone began ringing. I pulled out my headphones and looked at the Caller I.D. I smiled and slide the green bar.

"Lou!" I shouted.

"Ello, love, you alright?"

"Doing wonderful! How are you boys?"

"Great! Just finished rehearsal, just relaxing now. Wish you were here."

"Me too, Lou, me too. I'll see you soon though," I reassured.

"Who you talking to?" I heard in the background.

"Lezile,-"

There was scrambling on the other end and hushed voices fighting over the phone.

"Give it back, Curly!"

"Let me talk to her!" Harry shouted.

"I've barely spoken to her!"

I just waited patiently as the boys fought over the phone.

"Curly's going mental over here, I'll talk to you later, love," Louis said.

"Alright, bye Lou, love you!"

"Love you too!"

I heard a scratching sound before hearing Harry speak into the phone, "Lezile?"

I giggled, "yes, Harry."

"Okay, good. Hold on one second."

I could faintly hear him walking, the sounds of the other boys disappearing. I heard a door close before he started speaking again.

"I didn't want the other boys to hear."

"Oh, that's alright I guess."

An awkward silence fell upon us for a few seconds.

"So, how are you, Harry?"

"Uh, I'm alright. How are you?"

"I'm okay.."

He cleared his throat, "look, the reason I left the other room was because I need to talk to you about what I did.. and I really don't want Niall to hear this."

I swallowed the lump in my throat, "okay," I whispered.

"I am so sorry, love. I don't know why I kissed you outside the pub that day. No, actually I do, because you are so amazing, and I'm still mad that you chose Niall over me."

"Harry-"

"Please, let me just rant, okay?"

I nodded.

"Lezile?"

"I'm nodding, sorry."

"Sometimes I don't see why you're with him, what he has that I don't, and it kinda kills me when I see you two laughing and being all cute together, when for a very short time, that was you and I. I do miss holding your hand, sleeping on your chest and listening to your heartbeat, and when we danced. It was such a short time, and I didn't get to really enjoy it before it was taken from me."

I could feel tears welling up in my eyes, because it was true. What Harry and I had was great, but it wasn't long before that was over. He continued talking and snapped me out of my thoughts.

"I just want you to know that if you need anyone for anything, that you can always come to me. I know you and Liam are really close, but I'd like to be the one you come to, at least sometimes."

"You will, Harry. I promise. I just didn't know how to talk to you after the kiss. It..," I took a deep breath, "I know that we have seen each other, but I do miss you, Harry."

"Yeah, I get it."

"I do miss what we had of our short time together, you know."

"..you do?"

"I absolutely do. Don't think just because I'm with Niall right now, that I don't still miss what we had. Part of me always will."

"You're beautiful, love."

I bit my lip and wiped at my eyes, "I miss you, Harry."

"I miss you too," he whispered.

I heard rustling on Harry's end before hearing, "Haz, who you talking to?"

It was Liam..

"Lezile, do you wanna talk to her?"

I heard whispers and I pressed my ear to the phone as tight as I could, "no, I don't want to talk to her."

Harry whispered aggressively back to him, "she misses us, get on the phone and talk to her."

"I'm sorry Haz, I can't."

It felt like my stomach was in my throat. I heard Harry uncover the phone and sigh deeply.

"Was that Liam?" I asked stupidly.

"Uh yeah, it was. He said he'd love to chat but he was busy."

"I heard what he said Harry, but nice try."

"I'm sorry babe," he whispered.

"It's alright."

"Did something happen..?"

I scratched the back of my neck, "uh, no, nothing happened. I don't know what's up with him."

"D'ya want me to talk to him?"

"No! I mean, no, it's alright. I'll talk to him later."

"Alright.. If you're sure."

"I am. So tell me what's new with you, I miss talking to you."

Harry filled me in on everything, and I mean everything that was going on with him, especially X-Factor. He said he's gotten a lot of texts and messages online from girls from our school since he's been on television. No doubt now that everyone wants to get in Harry's pants.

"Never got many dates before, but now I've got girls just throwing themselves at me!"

I laughed as I toyed with the hem of my shirt, "guess you better open your arms and catch 'em all, Haz."

"Like Pokemon?" He shouted excitedly.

"Yes, like Pokemon!"

He laughed along with me.

"Oh god, Harry, my cheeks hurt from laughing!"

"Mine too! You're one funny lady."

"Thank you, thank you!" I giggled.

We calmed down from our laughter and just enjoyed the silence. It wasn't awkward like before. Just us, listening to each other's breaths as they came through the phone.

"Harry!" I heard someone call from his side.

"Yeah?" He shouted back.

"You've been missing for nearly a half hour, who you talking to?" I realized by the voice it was Niall.

"Oh, uh, nobody."

Thank you, Harry! God bless his lie.

"Seriously mate, who you talking to?"

I heard rustling and Harry and Niall fighting for the phone. Before I could think, I pressed the end button. I gripped my phone hard between my hands, waiting for a call back. If it rang, Niall knew. I don't know why I didn't want him to know. Just seems like it'd be easier. He doesn't know about the kiss, he doesn't need to know about the phone call that lasted over half an hour..

I tossed the phone back on the bed and put my headphones back in, turning up Olly and letting my thoughts over-power my mind and my Sunday day drag-on.

I had fallen asleep and dreamt of Harry. His perfect smile, his gorgeous eyes, his curly hair.. I dreamt he kissed me after making it through to the X-Factor Live Shows, and I could still remember how it felt to have his lips on mine. The way my hands ran through his curls and his hands snaked around my waist. Harry was protective, and warm, and yes, undeniably sexy, but I've got my very beautiful boyfriend Niall to get me through. He means everything to me.

I woke up later after my nap feeling even more tired and stressed. My body was screaming with tension. I got up and grabbed a couple towels and drew myself a hot bath. I got in and just rested, letting the hot water relax my muscles. As I settled in the hot water, my mind drifted. What the hell was I doing? Thinking about Harry and Liam while I was dating Niall. I felt like an emotional two-timer! I just had a nagging feeling like something was wrong, especially with me. I don't know if I'm really a relationship kind of girl. I couldn't imagine not being around Niall though, let alone leaving him and having him go off with another girl; I don't think I could handle it. With all that, I don't know why I'm literally playing with fire.. especially Liam. No idea why him ignoring me was making me freak out so bad. I cleaned my body and washed my hair and got out of the tub, drying off and putting on a tank top, my comfy grey sweater and black sweats.

I walked back to my room and just laid down on my bed, pulling out the pictures of me and the boys at the fair. I looked over all of them carefully, making me miss them all even more. I bit my lip as I reached for my phone, opening up the contacts.

I began typing a new message.

Where do I begin? Should I tell you how bad I need you now, you're underneath my skin 3

I clicked the send button, biting hard on my lip as I re-read the lyrics I had sent. I waited and waited, and soon, four minutes later began to feel like an eternity. My phone beeped and I quickly opened up the text, smiling as I read what he sent.

I never knew what I wanted 'til I looked into your eyes, so am I in this alone? What I'm looking for is a sign, that you feel how I feel for you, baby please don't let me go 3 xx

From: Niall Horan.

I smiled wide as I texted him back.

I miss you so much, I think I'm going insane without you here!

A few minutes later, he texted back

I think you were already insane, love ;) But don't worry, I'll be home to you soon. I miss you like crazy, don't think that I don't, xx

I laughed at him calling me crazy, which really is true. We continued texting for a couple of hours until he told me that he and the boys were going to bed so that they had enough sleep for their audition tomorrow. I wished him goodnight and our conversation ended.

That night, I couldn't sleep. My stomach churned cutely as I thought of Niall. It was now 2am, and I was nowhere close to sleep.

My phone beeped and I looked to the nightstand where my phone had lit up. I reached over and checked who had texted me.

Please tell me you're awake, I'm bored.

I giggled lightly and texted back.

You should be in bed, Styles. Go to sleep, Curly!

Harry: I tried! Niall's snoring is so hard to ignore!

Me: Haha, he doesn't snore THAT loudly!

Harry: Oh, but he does. I don't snore..

Me: No, you don't, Styles :) You're as quiet as a little mouse.

Harry: A manly mouse!

Me: HAHA, yeah, okay..

Harry: It's true! I'm manly :/

Me: okay, okay, very manly. I'm sorry, curly :p

Harry: As you should be -_-

Me: Are you nervous for the audition today?

Harry: Extremely. Liam's been trying to keep us all positive, but it's hard. I'm keep thinking I'm going to mess up, and cost us this whole thing.

Me: You can't think like that, Harry. You're going to be amazing. You guys will make it through.

Harry: How can you be so sure?

Me: Because I believe in you boys, and you. You're all too talented, and you deserve it.

Harry: I hope so.

Me: Get some sleep! You'll need it for the audition. Just think of something that calms you so you can sleep, and if you're nervous during the audition, just think of things that make you happy! :)

Harry: I will. Thanks, love! Sweet dreams xx

Me: Night :) xx

I put my phone on the nightstand and drifted off to sleep, hoping that Harry would be alright.

*Next Day*

I was tapping my pen on the desk, looking at the time. It was 12:29pm. One more minute and it'd be lunch time, which would be time for me to call the boys to see about the audition. I tapped my pen more furiously on the desk, annoying the girls next to me, but frankly, I didn't care. The bell rang and I jumped out of my seat, grabbing my books and rushing out of the classroom, gaining looks from everyone around me. I rushed to my locker and threw my books inside and grabbed my phone. I punched his number furiously into my phone, messing up a few times because I was going too fast.

"Come on," I whispered into the phone as it rang.

"Ellooo?" He joked.

"Harry, babe!"

A few girls shot me weird looks as they heard what I had said.

"Hi, love!" He laughed.

"Did you make it?"

"We're packing right now, because we're coming home.."

"Oh god, Harry, I'm so-"

"BECAUSE WE'RE MOVING TO LONDON!"

It felt like fireworks had gone off inside of me, sending me into a crazy spin.

"WHAT!" I shouted.

"Yeah, love! We made it through! We're coming home to get our stuff, because we move to London in a week for the show!"

"Oh my god, Harry! I'm so proud of you!"

"I wish I could hug you right now so we could bask in the excitement!"

I bounced up and down excitedly, "I wish I could hug you too!" I laughed.

A girl who was next to my locker was staring at me weird, wondering why I was hoping to hug Harry Styles instead of Niall.

"Niall's here, he wants to talk to you..," Harry said.

"Oh, okay. Bye, Harry, I'm happy for you!"

He sounded down, "thanks."

There was rustling on the line and then I heard Niall's voice.

"Lezile?"

"Niall!"

"Harry tell you? WE'RE THROUGH!"

"Yeah, he told me! I'm so proud of you, I knew you could do it!"

"He did tell you? I told the lads not to!" His voice was becoming deeper.

"Niall, it's okay, what's it matter? You made it through!"

"I just wanted to be the one to tell you," he sighed.

"Well.. you can be the first to hug me when you come home?" I laughed.

"I'd love that," and I could hear him smile through the phone.

We talked for a few minutes before Louis and Zayn started shouting on the line with all their might.

"NOTHING'S FINE, I'M TORN!"

I laughed aloud and so did Niall.

"I miss you, Lezile!" Louis shouted.

"I miss you too, Lou! I love you!"

"I LOVE YOU TOO!"

"Hey, what about me?" Zayn whined.

"Love you too, Zayn!"

"Woo! Love you too!"

The boys shared a laugh.

"Liam! Come say hey to Lezile!" Niall yelled.

I swallowed the lump in my throat as I heard the phone be passed. He obviously didn't want to make a scene in front of Niall.

"Hey, Lezile," he said dryly.

"Hi, Liam.. you alright?"

"Yes, are you?"

My voice cracked, "yes, I am."

"That's good. I'll see you soon, okay."

"Okay," I whispered.

Niall came back on the phone.

"Alright, love, we have to finish packing and get our info for the competition!" He practically screamed with excitement.

"Okay, well have fun! I'm so proud of you."

"Thank you, it means a lot from you. I miss you."

"I miss you too," I squeaked.

"I'll be home to you, soon. I promise."

"Okay. I'll be waiting."

"Bye, love."

"Bye."

And the line went dead. I put my phone back into my locker and shut the door, and still had a few girls give me weird looks. I slid down my locker and onto the floor, daydreaming about all the boys, and smiling at the fact that they had gotten through the X-Factor. Everything was about to change.
