Chapter 5:
Tai's POV
When the boys signed off, I couldn't help but smile. The boys are the best! I walked to my room with Alex.
There was a knock and I responded with, "It's open."
My mom came in and sat next to us on my bed.
"Just finished talking to our boyfriends," Alex replied with a smile.
I looked down nervously.
"Boyfriend? Taty, why didn't you tell me you had a boyfriend?" My mom asked, hurt in her eyes.
"I just got a boyfriend today and because I didn't want you to freak out," I mumbled, my eyes not meeting hers.
She put her hand by my chin and lifted my head up.
"Why would I freak out?" she asked, her brows furrowed.
"Because you remember when I went to go see 1D yesterday? Well, he's the one that I talked to you about; the one that I talked about. The one that asked me if I wanted to hang out. Harry asked me if I wanted to be his girlfriend and I said yes," I said frantically.
I hoped my mom wouldn't freak out.
She stared at me for a second then her face dropped.
"Oh, you're dating one of those boys. All I'm gonna say is be careful," she warned.
"So mom would you be okay if he stayed here for a week? He's coming to visit in three weeks after tour."
She thought about it for a while.
"I'll have to talk to him first."
"Perfect. You can talk to him the next time we Skype," I said with a smile.
Maria, could you try to convince my mom to let Liam stay over my house for a week. He's part of the band too," she asked, innocently.
"Yeah, but I think you should let her talk to him on Skype. In fact we'll do it together," My mom said with a smile.
"You're the best, Maria!" Alex giggled and hugged the crap out of my mom.
I was so excited. Everything was falling right into place.
I spent the rest of the day cleaning the house with my mom. Sunday's were always cleaning days at my house.
After dinner, I went to my room and called Harry,
'Hey beautiful," he said with a husky voice.
I blushed and said, "No, you're the beautiful one."
He chuckled and replied, "No, you're the beautiful."
I heard a voice yell, "Get a room you too!" and I was confused.
"Am I on speaker?" I asked confused.
"Yeah, sorry about that, love. I'm kind of getting dressed right now," he admitted sheepishly.
"That means all the boys can hear me?"
I heard four voices respond with a "Yeah" and I turned bright red.
"So what did you wanna talk to me about?" he asked absentmindedly.
"Well I talked to my mom and I asked her about you staying over for a week and she said she wants to talk to you first. So I decided to have her join in on our next video. Oh and Liam, Alex and her mom are gonna be with me, so you better make a good impression."
"Yes, ma'am," he said jokingly.
I giggled and said, "Good and the same thing goes for you, Mr. Styles. Just try not to hit on my mom," I joked.
I heard him chuckle and I smiled.
"Well I gotta go, gorgeous. Love you," he said and hanged up.
He didn't even get to hear me say love you back. I smiled to myself. My life just keeps getting better.
Alex's POV
I spent the next two weeks skyping and talking on the phone with Liam. I really love hearing his beautiful voice at night before I went to bed. It's like heaven.
I ran into the shower and started getting ready. Today was the day the boys were coming. Tai and I cannot hold our excitement. We've missed them so much.
I quickly got dressed and did my makeup and hair. Tai was gonna pick me up and drive us to the airport.
We had to make sure we got there by 3. The boys are supposed to arrive at 3.
It was 2:30 when Tai picked me up and I started to panic.
"Dude we're gonna be late," I panicked.
"No we're not. We can make it there in a half an hour. Trust me. I got this," she said, speeding off to the highway.
We got to the airport at 3:00 sharp and we went on a mad dash to the terminal. After running for five minutes, we stopped and looked at the big board with all the flights listed on them.
"Flight 844 from Chicago to TF Green: just arrived," Tai read.
I let out a big sigh of relief.
Tai and I looked around for a few minutes, hoping to see the boys.
"Alex, I see them. Look."
Tai pointed to the clear doors and I saw Harry and Liam walking through them wearing sunglasses and hats.
"Harry! Liam!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.
Tai and I waved frantically, trying to get their attention.
They eventually saw us and waved back.
Tai and I ran towards them and jumped on Harry and Liam.
I buried my face into Liam's neck and whisper, "I've missed you."
He ran his hand through my hair and whispered back, "I've missed you too."
We looked into each other's eyes and slowly the gap between us got smaller and smaller until our lips touched.
The kiss was gentle and sweet; full of passion than lust.
I jumped off and he grabbed my hand. I looked next to me and Harry and Tai were holding hands.
We all walked to the baggage area together. The boys have only been here for five minutes, but to Tai and I, it feels like forever.
The boys got their luggage and we walked back to the car.
"Sweet ride. Whose is it?" asked Harry, clearly impressed.
"It used to be my dad's, but he gave it to me last month for my birthday," she explained.
We got into the car and I spent the whole ride cuddling with Liam in the back seat while he ran his fingers through my hair. It was relaxing, to say the least.
Harry and Tai just talked and sang along to songs on the radio.
They're so much alike, it's actually pretty scary.
Halfway through the ride, Glad You Came by The Wanted came on and we started singing along.
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me
Spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me
Fell on me
And I decided you look well on me
Well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see
You and me
Turn the lights off now
Now I take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time?
Time is slipping away
Away from us so stay
Stay with me I can make
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me
Spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me
Fell on me
And I decided you look well on me
Well on me
So let's go somewhere no one else can see
You and me
Turn the lights off now
Now I take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time?
Time is slipping away
Away from us so stay
Stay with me I can make
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
The sun goes down
The stars come out
And all that counts is here and now
My universe will never be the same
I'm glad you came
I'm glad you came
Before I knew it, we were pulling up at my house and the nerves started to attack me.
Liam and I got out and I brought his stuff to the front door of my house.
I realized that I forgot my keys and luckily my mom was home to open the door.
I rang the doorbell and waited impatiently as the nerves started to consume me.
"Relax babe," whispered Liam.
He kissed the back of my neck and his warmth and love started to fight away the nerves.
"I'll try," I breathed out, nervousness in my voice.
The door swung open and I sighed.
This is it. This is the moment of truth.
