Chapter 2:
Liam's POV
As soon as Harry left, Louis started making comments about Harry.
"Five dollars says Harry's getting her number and they're gonna end up snogging by the end of the night!"
Me, Zayn and Niall all agreed to Louis's bet. Alex just laughed and refused to comment on Louis's statement.
"Hey you wanna go on a walk with me?"
I hope I didn't sound too desperate or anything. It's just that after what happened with Danielle, my love life has been a mess. I've been avoiding relationships just so I wouldn't go through all the pain she put me through. The whole relationship was a rollercoaster ride and I didn't wanna go through that again.
"Yeah, sure" she grinned.
I held out my hand and she willingly accepted it. As we walked out the venue, we swayed our arms back and forth. It was something me and Danielle always did. I remember all the walks we went on and how she always had that smile on her face; the smile that would brighten up my day. Tears started to form and I tried to hide them from Alex.
"What's wrong, Liam?"
She turned towards me and put her hands on my cheeks. She wiped away my tears.
"Come here"
She pulled me into a tight hug and lightly rubbed my back
"Do you wanna talk about it?"
I didn't want her to feel like it was her fault that I was acting this way, so I told her I was fine.
"Are you sure you're going to be fine? If you want we can go back to the venue?"
She looked so concerned. The tears had gone away and now I started to smile.
"No, I wanna stay with you."
Did I really just say that? Damn it Liam! You just made a fool of yourself. Hopefully she doesn't think I'm weird or something.
She giggled and smiled. "Well I'm glad you wanna stay with me."
I grinned.
"See, that's the happiness and the smile I wanna see from you."
God this girl is so adorable. I always thought that American girls were adorable. They're just so different from English girls. Every time I look at Alex, I can't help but think about Danielle. They both are the same height, have similar body structures and have an amazing smile. As much as I convinced myself that I was over her, somewhere deep in my soul, a voice told me that I'm not really over her.
Harry's POV
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"No, I'm completely single."
"Cool." I tried to play it off like I wasn't interested, but fuck yes she's single. This is my one shot to make a move because I may never see her again.
"You're a really cool girl."
Wow, I really need to think about what I say.
She giggled and smiled.
"And you're a really cool guy" she winked.
"Are you trying to say you want to spend more time with me?" she teased.
I smiled. "That's what I'm definitely trying to say."
"Then why didn't you just say that, silly?" she hit my shoulder playfully.
Ok, she's definitely flirting back. Does that mean she's interested, too?
"So is that a yes?" I hoped she would say yes.
"Of course, but first I'll have to let my mom know"
She pulled out her phone and called her mom.
"Hey mom. So Harry asked me if I wanted to hang out after the show... Harry's in the band... You know the curly haired one. So I won't be home till really late... I haven't asked Alex yet but I know she'll want to stay..."
She hung up and smiled.
"What'd she say?" I really wanted her to stay.
"She said yes. She doesn't really care as long as I get home safe."
"So you ready to party 1D style?"
"Of course. I'm Dominican. Partying runs in my veins. So does Alcohol."
I chuckled and smiled.
Just then I got a text from Louis
Lou Lou ;) : Get your butt back to the venue. We're on soon.
Oh shit, I forgot about the show.
"What's wrong?"
"We gotta head back to the venue. The show's gonna start soon."
We made our way out of Starbucks and to the venue.
Tai's POV
He grabbed my hand and we started running through a series of alleys.
"Where are we going?" I managed to let out through my breath
"It's a shortcut"
We were only running for like 5 minutes but it felt like an eternity to me. Being with him makes me smile. He makes my stomach tie in knots but he also makes me be myself; something I don't do in front of everybody.
When we finally made it through the back door, we were both completely out of breath.
Suddenly Carmen walked up to Harry.
"Harry, go get mic'd up. You're on in five."
Harry ran off to go get ready to perform.
I still couldn't believe this was actually happening.
Alex walked towards me with a huge grin on her face.
"Why are you so happy?"
"Me and Liam went on an amazing walk."
"Eep! Oh my God, I need details!"
Alex told me about how they were holding hands and how she comforted him when he was crying. I had a feeling she didn't tell me everything. She was definitely hiding something from me.
"There's something you're not telling me. Something else happened."
She just kept smiling, trying not to tell me.
"Come on Alex. We tell each other everything."
"Sorry. I don't kiss and tell." She had a smug look on her face.
OH MY GOD! THEY KISSED?
"YOU GUYS KISSED?" I practically screamed.
"Shh! I'll tell you the rest later. Let's go to our seats. The show's about to start.
Alex's POV
Security escorted us to our seats, while the lights were off. Girls were screaming from every direction.
All we could here is "BOSTON ARE YOU READY? WELL HERE COMES ONE DIRECTION!"
The whole venue erupted into screams, as the music started playing and the boys slowly started making their way up the platform that was below the stage.
When the boys were finally visible, the screaming got even louder.
I tried playing it cool
But when I'm looking at you
I can't ever be brave
'Cause you make my heart race
When Liam sang those words, he smiled at me and gave me a wink. My cheeks immediately flushed pink and I covered my cheeks.
Shot me out of the sky
You're my kryptonite
You keep making me weak
Yeah, frozen and can't breathe
I noticed that Harry was looking at Tai and also shot her a wink. She turned pink as well.
Something's gotta give now
'Cause I'm dying just to make you see
That I need you here with me now
'Cause you've got that one thing
So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing
Now I'm climbing the walls
But you don't notice at all
That I'm going out of my mind
All day and all night
Something's gotta give now
'Cause I'm dying just to know your name
All I need is here with me now
'Cause you've got that one thing
So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
And you've got that one thing
You've got that one thing
Get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
So get out, get out, get out of my head
And fall into my arms instead
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
So get out, get out, get out of my mind
And come on, come into my life
I don't, I don't, don't know what it is
But I need that one thing
Yeah, you've got that one thing
Wow the boys were amazing. Tai and I walked backstage to congratulate the boys.
When the boys walked off stage, you can tell how hyped up they were.
"You guys were amazing!"
"Yeah, you guys killed it!" Tai was smiling cheesily.
"Thanks girls. So are you girls staying after to chill?"
"Definitely. Wouldn't miss it for the world." Tai was looking directly at Harry.
"Alright, we'll see you guys later."
The boys walked away to their dressing room.
Tai's POV
As the boys walked away, I grabbed Alex.
"Are you gonna tell me about the kiss now?"
I wanted to know every detail.
"Yes, ok"
*Flashback*
Alex's POV
"You're adorable."
Liam made me smile like an idiot and I started to blush.
"No, I'm not. You're the adorable one."
He smiled and stared into my eyes.
I could feel my heart beat like crazy.
He out his right hand on my cheek.
"No Alex. You're beautiful."
He leaned in and I closed my eyes.
When I felt his lips press gently against mine, sparks flew throughout my body.
It was perfect and I smiled, when he pulled away.
I noticed his expression change; almost to embarrassment.
"I'm so sorry-"
I put my finger to his lips and said, "Shh. Don't say sorry. I liked it."
He smiled and grabbed my hand, interlocking our fingers.
*End of Flashback*
Tai's POV
"Oh my God! Dude, I'm so happy for you! So are you guys like dating?"
She thought about it for a minute. She shrugged.
"I don't know. He didn't say anything about that."
"Oh, well I'm sure he has a good reason why."
The boys came out dressed a lot more casual.
"What are you guys all dressed up for?"
"We're going to the Club!"Zayn yelled.
Zayn looked like he was ready to tear that club apart.
I smiled. This was definitely gonna be interesting.
Good thing me and Alex were dressed nicely.
I could not wait to get the party started; I mean I could really use some alcohol in my system right now.
We made our way through the back of the venue and thank god, there were no fans.
We got into the limo and Harry sat next to me and Liam sat next to Alex.
Harry put his arm around me and I rested my head on his shoulder.
"Look at those two getting cozy over there." Louis teased.
I buried my head in Harry's chest, so that no one could see my red face.
"Fuck off Louis. Go bother Liam." Harry flipped him off.
"Hey, don't tell him to bother me!" Liam protested.
Alex giggled and buried her face in Liam's chest.
"Louis is just jealous because Eleanor isn't here." Harry teased.
"Shit! That reminds me. I have to call her later."
We entered the club and immediately walked to the VIP Area. The VIP is where I live.
We all stood in a circle, pouring shots for each other.
We all took our first shot of the night together. Although, I knew it wasn't gonna be our last.
Dancing in the Dark started blaring through the speakers and I knew shit was about to go down.
I immediately grabbed Harry and dragged him to the dance floor.
"Whoa girl. Slow down." He chuckled.
"You don't understand. This song gets me crazy!"
I instantly started dancing all up on him. Our hips were moving in sync and I had my hands in the air. He had a firm grip on my hips and I could feel our heartbeats racing. I could feel his warm breath on my neck. I looked around and saw Alex and Liam jumping around the dance floor.
Liam's POV
"Liam, wanna dance with me?"
"Of course."
Alex grabbed my hand and brought me to the dance floor.
"I'm not a good dancer!" she yelled over the music.
"I'm not the best either."
We both just put our hands in the air and jumped to the beat of the song.
Alex is so much fun to dance with.
"Hey Alex. Look."
She turned around and I pointed to where Tatyana and Harry were. They basically looked like they were having sex on the dance floor.
Alex giggled.
"They're so hooking up"
After a few songs, me and Alex went to go grab a few more drinks.
"I can't too much. I'm supposed to drive Tai home."
"Oh, designated driver?" he teased.
"I'm always the designated driver. I mean, I don't really drink about, so I'm always the most sober one."
"Ahh. I see, but I'm gonna have to change that." I smiled after taking another shot.
"That's not happening." She giggled and kissed my cheek.
Tatyana started running towards us. She was clearly tipsy.
"Hey guys. What you doing?"
"Drinking. Where's Harry?"
"He's right behind me."
She grabbed Harry's hand and brought him to the couch.
Harry was tipsy, too. We definitely need to keep an eye on him and Tatyana.
"Oh my God! Thanks for inviting me, Hazza! I love you!"
Ok, she's definitely drunk.
"Aww, I love you too."
He leaned in and kissed me.
