Chapter 11

ROSALIE'S P.O.V:
Harry held me close and it felt so relaxing and reassuring. He started singing a soft melody to calm down my crying and my shaking. His head was placed gently on my head and he kissed it to show how much he cared about me. The way we acted around together, well I wouldn't be surprised that people presumed we were dating but we just care about each other a lot but we don't have any intentions of dating. It was also surprising that he didn't have to talk; no words were used to calm down. His presence was just enough to reassure me that I was going to be okay..

"You feeling better?" Harry asked.
"Yes thank you so much" I replied.

Zayn entered the room with a box of tissues and walked to my side immediately.
"Hey, I'm just going to call the guys to tell them you're alright and we'll make it to dinner" Harry said as he let go of me slowly and walked outside my room.
"Oh dear, I forgot. I am sorry, you shouldn't be here. I feel so bad, you're late to your own reservation! Oh my gosh" I said as a whole heap of guilt just washed on me.

"It's ok babes, they understand. Plus the food should be coming out in 30 minutes anyway" Zayn said as he hugged me tightly. "You better though?" Zayn asked.
"Yes I am, thank you"
"Rose, trust me. Don't ever listen to what they say about you. They don't even know you personally. Plus, you know us boys love you so much! Don't believe anything they say because what they say is just from jealousy" Zayn whispered in a serious tone. He stared at me with his big brown eyes and hugged me as he handed me tissues.
"Thank you Zayn, so much. Love you" I murmured.

"Hey, what about me?" Harry joked as he walked in his room after getting off his phone.
"Love you too Harry!" I said.
"Good, now since you love us, would you like to get ready?" Harry smiled.
"Yes yes yes, I'm so sorry. I'll be ready in 10 minutes!"

I ran to my closest and chose whatever I saw first and ran into my bathroom to get ready. I picked out a white lace dress that I got discounted from TopShop after I got a job as a sales assistant and it is seriously the best job in the world. The pay is great, and the discounts you get... literally a girl's dream come true. I paired it up with my new nude coloured wedges and a brown belt for my waist. I didn't bother bringing a bag but just my wallet which my phone fit perfectly inside. I looked at myself in the mirror and did minimal makeup, just a few coats of mascara and eyeliner with a bit of my face moisturising cream. I did bother brushing my hair but just ran my fingers through it. I guess I could say I was going for the rocker, grunge kind of look.

I checked myself in the mirror, and this was certainly not the best .. uh... look of my life but whatever at least I looked 1% decent. I hesitated to open the door knob because I felt so insecure at that exact moment. All the messages began to flood back in my mind, the attack upon my appearance. I was also self conscious of my image, always have always will. I let out a sigh, and realised how lucky I was to be here and what great friends I have so I shoved all the messages at the back of my mind and opened the door. I stepped out and walked down the stairs.

"Do I look Okay?" I said.

HARRY'S P.O.V

I heard light steps coming down the stairs and placed the magazine I was reading on the coffee table. Zayn and I got up and brushed ourselves up until I heard a soft whisper.

"Do I look okay?" Rosalie asked.

I looked up and saw the girl that I knew. She looked so beautiful, so effortless, so flawless. Her outfit was sexy yet sophisticated and her hair was in her usual messy long waves. Her legs look unbelievably long and her figure was amazing. She looked gorgeous, and she didn't even know that. I think me and Zayn were gobsmacked at her sudden transformation and our mouths and eyes were a bit too wide open.

"Um, hello?" Rosalie said as she waved her hand over her face.
"Oh, um. Wow, you look amazing" Zayn said. She blushed immediately and did a really geeky pose to stop the awkward silence.
"And now we're back" I joked.
"Oh shutup" she laughed as she lightly hit me on the arm.
"Let's go!" Zayn said and held his arm to let Rosalie place her arm in his. I felt a tinge of jealousy come across me but immediately let it go as I thought I was overreacting. I ordered a taxi and we hopped on with Rose in the middle and went on our way to the restaurant.

ROSALIE'S P.O.V:
We stopped at a very classy restaurant that was pretty deserted from the rest of the city. It was very quiet and the tables were in a private room. It was perfect. I stepped out of the taxi and Zayn opened the door and signalled me to walk in first.
"Thank you" I said. I took off my coat and hung it on my arm as I walked into a room. Louis, Liam and Niall was there as well as their gorgeous girlfriends Eleanor and Danielle. I noticed Caroline was there next to Niall and I came up to here to introduce myself since I have never met her before.

"Hi, I'm Rosalie. Nice to finally meet you, Harry always goes on about you" I smiled and gave her a massive hug.
"Hi Rosalie! I know who you are, the boys care for you so much! How are you?" She said as she smiled.
"I'm so good thank you" I said. Harry approached and I left her side to let him sit next to her. There was 2 spaces between Eleanor and Niall so I sat next to Eleanor as Zayn sat in the last spot. Zayn began chatting non-stop with Niall as I positioned myself towards Eleanor.

"Hey babe, long time!" Eleanor said and patted the chair next to her. I smiled, I've always liked her. I met her a couple of times and she is so lovely, and drop dead gorgeous. We get along well and we occasionally hang out whenever Louis and Harry arrange something.
"Hiii! And Hey Danielle, you both look beautiful tonight" I said.
"And so do you gorgeous" replied Danielle and my cheeks began blossoming into a red colour.
"You ok? Louis told us about before, don't listen to them babe. It happens to us too, but I'm sure they don't mean it" said Eleanor as she reached out to give me a hug. I hugged her just as tight and smiled at her.
"Thank you, it means a lot for you guys to be so sweet to me." I smiled and noticed everyone's dish was empty.
"What did you guys order?" I asked.
"Well, Harry said your favourite stir fry so we got you that but we're all sharing if that's ok" Danielle replied.
"No no, that is perfect. Awesome!" I grinned and began chatting away with Eleanor as Danielle faced all her attention on Liam. They were so sweet together.

As the food became coming in, I stood up for a short toast.
"Hey guys. I'd like to personally apologise for my delayed arrival and making Zayn and Harry late. I am truely sorry, but I would to congratulate the boys in their successful so far. You guys are amazing, and I wish you a lifetime of success. You've all been great friends to me, and cared for me tremendously. And for that, I'd like to say thank you and I love you guys" I blushed and I sat down. The boys all came and gave me a massive group hug and kissed me each on the cheek. I laughed and the food came in just in time. Eleanor started chatting away with Louis next to her and I began talking to Zayn about literally everything. It was so good to finally catch up with him.

HARRY'S P.O.V:
I analysed the room and everyone was having a great time. It was an hour later and the food was all almost gone. It was nice to be public with Caroline, well not exactly but we had a great time. She went and excused herself to go to the bathroom. I analysed everyone. Danielle and Liam were feeding each other, they were so cute together. Did I just think that?

Louis and Eleanor were being their cheeky selves and laughing hysterically. I looked at Niall and he was on his phone, again. He had another plate full of food and didn't seem bothered by being entertained with the phone. Then I saw Zayn and Rose. They were deep into a conversation and they were both laughing loudly at something he said. It was like his full attention was on her, I wonder if he likes her. Nah, can't be. But I admit, they did look nice together. He seemed really into her, and they got a lot closer these couple of weeks. The jealousy feeling crept back on me and I released my glaze and stared down at my food. Why was I feeling this way. I have Caroline, Rose has George and Zayn is happy being Single. I let go of the thoughts and resumed going through my twitter on my phone.

40 Minutes Later
The desert came through and I thought it was the perfect time to say my announcement. I grabbed my glass cup and banged my fork gently on it. All eyes came up to me and I cleared my throat and placed on a very posh accent.

"Ok, so girls, you were all here because we had some very good news to announce. Well I'd like to announce that we're going to have a tour! And we're visiting Australia in about a month and a half time!" I said

"No way!" Rose shouted.
"Why, what's up?" I said, suddenly concern with her reaction.
"I'm going Australia too, around the time you guys are leaving. It's when I have break of college and work, so I got enough to go back!" she said.
"No way" grinned Zayn and gave Rose a hug. That was unnecessary.
"When are you going exactly?" I asked and sat down in my chair.
"I'm going early November, so I should be going a week before you guys arrive" she said.
"We should plan for a personal tour from you! That would be cool" said Louis
"Yeah you should, and show us to your school and everything" exclaimed Liam.
"I would love to!" she smiled.
Everyone started buzzing about the whole trip, and Caroline started kissing me to show how proud she was. Eleanor and Danielle were congratulating their boyfriends and Rose was in conversation with Zayn and Niall as they all looked super excited about the whole trip now.

I wonder what's going to happen then.

1 month later

ROSALIE'S P.O.V:
Jess informed me of her 17th birthday party she was having back home. I didn't want to tell her about my arrival because I wanted to keep it a surprise! I haven't even talked to George ever since I lashed out at him, but I think we're both just trying to recover it all, I'm sure we'll be fine. It'll be so good to see him again. I can't to see the look on their faces. The only people who know I am coming back are my parents and my two older brothers. I made them swear they wouldn't tell anyone until I arrive but my dad, who I've always been very close to is very very excited.

I decided to call up Harry to come down to the shops to buy some stuff.
"Hello?" said a husky voice.
"Yo yo yo yo! Um, are you busy at the moment?" I asked.
"Not exactly, I'm was going to go over Caroline's for a bit. How come?" he said.
"Oh, I was asking if you wanted to go to the shops to buy some overseas things. And I wanted to go shops to buy some presents. But it's ok, don't worry! Have fun, I'll ask Zay-"
"No no, I'll come! She'll understand, I needed to get some stuff down too. Come down in about 10 minutes" He hung up immediately and I just sat staring at my phone. He seemed so urgent once I mentioned I was going to ask Zayn to come at me, but I was over analysing everything just as usual. I got dressed in simple jeans, a wooly jumper and a fur vest and grabbed my sunglasses and my wallet.

Harry showed up my door with his jeans and his trench coat with his casual scarf and beanie. We walked to the shops and we catched up about everything. The last few weeks were a bit crazy. My college gave me about 2 assignments and I had to design some outfits for Autumn that represent a movie or character. I frequently do my sketches during my job breaks, my manager/boss Rachel caught me drawing and really liked them. I was so chuffed, because I am so proud of them. My job has been quite tiring, I occasionally get noticed by One Direction fans who ask me for pictures. It's very flattering, and all the rumours got cleared up thanks to the boys. The fans seemed so much more welcoming and I love communicating with them on my twitter, they're all really lovely.

Also, the boys were just announcing the tour and planning everything, and the fans went absolute crazy. I am so proud of them, they achieved so much. These past couple of weeks, they went around UK to promote their new album, and it's been so successful and I am so happy! I didn't get to see Harry much this month, probably about once in a week, but only briefly. However, we do text occasionally and we send each other support and it's great to have his company. We started playing the Penis game from one of my favourite movies: "500 Days of Summer"

"Penis" I whispered.
"Peniss"
"Penisss"
"PENIS"
"PENISS"
"PEEEENIS"
I stared at Harry and looked at all the confused people. I couldn't help but crack up. I'm going to give this a shot.
"PEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNISSSS S" I screamed out of my lungs. Harry stared at me with utter belief and a massive smile cracked up on his face. He let out the wildest laugh and had to stop to keep a breath. I couldn't stop laughing and smiling and I had the biggest stitch so I had to stop at the nearest lamp post to hold my stomach in. It hurt. We looked at each other and cracked up into laughter and Harry sat down on his bum to calm his giggles down. I let out my hand to lift him up and we brushed ourselves up as we arrived to the cafe we met to get a few refreshments. John wasn't there so I ordered my hot chocolate and walked back outside in the freezing weather.

"Do you promise me you'll come on one of the tours?" Harry said.
"Of course! I'll be there to support you, obviously!" I said.
"Which one do you wanna go to?" he said.
"I'll probably go with Eleanor or Danielle, they asked me before but I haven't got back to them yet"
"You promise?"
"Pinky promise silly!" And we did our stupid pinky promise and walked into various stores buying bags, presents for my family and mini tooth paste and tooth brushes because we are both the worst impulse buyers in history. We continued buying groceries for back home and I honestly can say, it was so good to catch up with Harry. It was so chill, and no-one seemed to notice us.

"Can I just say, I'm so lucky to have you" Harry said.
"Huh?" I said, distracted by a pair of shoes in Zara.
"You're my best friend, and I don't say this often but you're one of the few people I know whose always been supportive of me and never judged me. I don't want to ever lose you" he said.
"I would say the exact same thing, promise me you won't get annoyed at me and break up with me as a friend. It'll like totally like break my heart" I said, clearly joking with my horrible goofy accent.
"You'll be my friend for life. And I love you" Harry said, with a big smile on his face.
"Love you too Hazza" I said and we exchanged in the most heart-felt hug we've ever had. It was quite random because it was in the shoe section but it kind of represented our friendship. Although I'm horrible with corny and cheesy lines but I hope I never lose him as a friend.

"I promise you, no-one will break our friendship"
"Promise?" I said.
"Promise" he said.
