Harry's POV:
I strutted down the hallway and burst into my room, shoving the door loudly as I entered. I pulled some boxers on, followed by trousers, and my favorite Jack Wills hoodie. I put on my old Converse, and I was ready. I ran down the stairs, ignoring Niall in the kitchen and sat outside, on the sidewalk in front of the house.
She was doing this on purpose, I know it. She only slept at Louis' room to get back at me, and even if I deserved it, she was playing dirty.
"She's such a child!" I grunted
I heard movement inside the house and a couple of laughs, but didn't move. Liam, Zayn, Niall, Louis, Danielle and Emma burst trough the door and walked towards the car.
"Are you coming?" Louis shuffled my hair
"Where are you going?" I croaked
"To the movies" Emma chirped as Niall picked her up off the ground and placed her in the van
"Come on Bro" Zayn turned around and smiled
"I think I'm going to stay here" I groaned "Have fun!" I said annoyed and went back inside the house
Louis's POV:
"Six tickets for The Lion King!" Emma said excited. I snaked my way trough the line and placed myself next to her
"It'll be 79.5 pounds" The guy behind the glass said in a monotone
Emma started pulling up her purse when I stopped her. She looked up confused and I slid a couple of bills and gave it to the man.
"Louis!" She protested "Why did you?"
"I wasn't going to let you pay" I smiled and took the tickets and the change.
"Why won't anyone let me pay?" She grunted
"Because we are gentleman, darling" I scoffed and walked towards the rest of the group "Here you have guys" I said and gave everyone a ticket before running off towards the snack bar, holding Emma's hand.
And if you're still wondering, no, I don't have a crush on her anymore. Well, maybe a little, but it's not like before, I can control myself now and it's not as strong as it was, and the best part? I don't have to hide it, everyone knows!
"What do you want to order?" I said and looked at the huge screen above us.
"Just popcorn" She smiled "And maybe a diet Coke"
"Danielle and I are sharing a diet Coke" Liam said wrapping his arms around his girlfriend "And sharing pop corn too"
"Sure, you Niall?"
"Well, the tickets were pretty expensive, how about we pair up and everyone shares something? I'll share some nachos with Zayn and a Coke" He shrugged
"Do you mind if I share with you?" I turned to Emma, and she shook her head
"Well, then it's going to be two pop corns, one combo of nachos with coke, and two diet cokes, am I right?"
Everyone nodded and I walked to the cashier to take our orders.
We sat inside the theater and started munching on our pop corns.
"Lion King's my favorite Disney movie" Emma mumbled "It's amazing they put it again on the theaters"
"For the third time!" I grinned
She looked into my eyes and smiled warmly.
Oh no, not again, you fuzzy feeling.
I found myself staring at Emma trough the whole movie, not even paying attention to anything shown on the big screen. It could've been the Wizard of Oz and I would compliment on how great the graphics were on Mufasa's death scene if anyone asked.
"What are you doing?" She whispered and giggled, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"I spaced out, sorry" I shook my head and smiled awkwardly.
The conversation we had last night trailed around my thoughts.
"I'm sorry Harry ignored you" I said as she rested her head on my stomach
"Well, there's nothing we can do now" She laughed, but weakly, and I could sense a trail of pain in her voice
"I would've been there for you, I wouldn't have forgotten you" I whispered and she stared at me, her green-gray eyes piercing trough mine
"I would've killed to had found you first than him" I said "But I guess some are lucky, and some are not"
"Louis…"He mumbled
"It's ok" I vaguely smiled
"I'm sorry" She said and traced the pattern on my shirt
"Don't be" I scoffed "At least we are friends"
"Yeah" she said "Friends"
We started playing twenty questions later on and I blurted out "What do you regret the most?"
She thought for a while "Getting myself in this mess without knowing the consequences"
"Which mess?" I frowned
"This" She whispered "It just doesn't seem like I'm Harry's girlfriend. I'm HARRY STYLES' girlfriend, you know? If I had known how hard it would be, and how hurt I'd end up, I don't know if I would be here right now."
"It doesn't mean I don't want to be with him" She chuckled nervously "I do, I really do, I love him… but this is kind of too much for me… Now, I'll deal with it, I can't back away now that I've come this far and what we've been trough … but …"
"I know, I understand" I sighed "It'll all get better, I promise, you won't be hurt again" I kissed the top of her head "I'll make sure of it"
I guess we weren't going to keep playing anymore.
The lights inside the cinema turned on and I snapped back to reality.
"I could watch that movie a thousand times" Niall said as he stepped out of the isle, letting us trough
"Yeah, me too" I muttered and walked down the stairs
As we reached the lobby, a couple of girls shrieked and came running towards us
"Oh….my….god" One of them hyperventilated "I love you all so much, I really do, can I have an autograph? A picture? Maybe a hug? I can't believe this!" The red headed said
"Geez, Helen, calm down" The blonde protested and took out her phone "I'm sorry for my friend, she gets really nervous around famous people"
"Who wouldn't?" Emma said smiling
"You're Emma, right?" The blonde one said "Harry's girlfriend"
She nodded shyly and smiled weakly. The girl came up to her and hugged her tightly.
"You get so much hate, it's not fair, I think you're cool and everything they say is not true" She smiled and Emma's eyes filled with tears
"I'm sorry" She excused herself and laughed "You're the first one"
"It's ok" She let go and grinned "So how about a picture?" she said turning to us
Both Danielle and Emma grabbed the girls' phones as we gathered around. I smiled widely at the camera and hung my arm around the red headed.
Click, flash
"Another one!" They demanded
Click, flash
"Thank you so much, you guys" The blonde waved goodbye as we gave her notepad and clutched her arm on her friend. "You're awesome!"
"Bye!" We waved
"I think we should get going" Emma said and looked to the ground "Harry's all alone at home, I feel kind of guilty now"
"Now you feel guilty?" I swung my arm around her shoulders and chuckled "Who can ever understand you?"
