CHAPTER 8
Sazia's P.O.V
"C'mon, c'mon, c'monnnnnnnnn, hurry up! We've gotta be there in like 5 more minutes!" Alicia complained as me and Sazia stood there giggling at how serious Alicia was being.
"Exactly, and it doesn't matter if we're a little late, we live just across their house remember?" I implied before adding a giggle to the end.
"Yesssssss, but… oh just hurry up!" Alicia quickly replied back.
"Hmmm…someone's a bit over-excited to see Niall again then aren't they?" Giulia said whilst nudging me by the arm as we both exchanged a few glances before giving her the same look in return. This had clearly shut her up, as we both watched her instantly blush the minute we mentioned Niall's name before she walk out of the room awkwardly, me and Giulia then both high-fived each other after wards just before finishing off with our packing.
Once we were done, we went downstairs to find Alicia waiting by the door, texting someone on her phone with her bags beside her. Suddenly, a small smile appeared on her face and both me and Giulia stood there grinning the whole time.
"Awwr, how adorable… was that Niall?" I joked as Alicia's head immediately shot back up with surprise. Guess it was.
"Umm…maybe" she said trying to keep a serious face on again but we could both tell she was trying to hold back another smile.
"Can we just go now?" She asked, suddenly changing the subject before we simply nodded in return.
Niall's P.O.V
We had about 5 minutes left before the girls would be arriving and at the moment, the guys were all in their boxers. Well all of them except for me and Liam. Eleanor was in the room too, but it didn't look like it had bothered her too much since she was used to living with us.
"Guys, you do know that the girls will be around in about 5 minute's right?" I stated. They all suddenly took their eyes from the football table game and simply replying with a "Yeah we know" before getting back to their game.
"Then put on some pants!" I yelled before throwing them a bunch of clothes that were left around the house. All of them rolled their eyes at me straight away before they got dressed, except for Harry of course. But I didn't bother with him afterwards. Instead, I decided to pull out my phone and text Alicia.
'Hey, you're all still coming over right? ;)xx' I texted as I immediately got a text back from her.
Alicia (1 new message) at 4:02pm
'Sorry, might be a little late –have to wait for the girls to finish packing! But yeah, we'll definitely be there:)xx'
'Great because I can't wait to see you! And the others of course... :)xxx'
Alicia (1 new message) at 4:04pm
'Me neither:) xxx'
And because of that last text, I couldn't stop smiling.
Giulia's P.O.V
We knocked on their door a few times before someone had finally opened the door. Lucky guess? It was Louis of course.
"GIULIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" he yelled whilst jumping on top of me before I started screaming.
"Louis get off" I giggled between my sentence as I watched him pout.
"Awwwr but giu, I wuv you" he began moaning like a child as I rolled my eyes in return.
"Louis leave the poor girl alone will you! She doesn't need to put up with your randomness again" I heard Eleanor giggle before giving us all each a hug. Although I must admit, as soon as I walked into the living room I actually couldn't believe how messy the room looked already –well compared to yesterday. The room was even messier than my own bedroom! There were clothes left everywhere, the sofa's were pushed aside and tilted at different messy angles, there were piles and piles of sleeping bags layered in the middle, and there were bags of junk food and drinking cans left around on the tables.
"Wow…did you guys throw a party in here or something?" I muttered under my breath but I was almost certain that they had all heard me, as I watched all them laugh in return, I then noticed Harry was staring at me. I gave him a quick smile before I sat down beside him, only realizing that he was in nothing but his boxers.
"Oh god, umm….am I suppose to look away or..?" I started blabbing with my hands covering my eyes. At first I saw him looking a bit confused but then I think he must've realized what I was on about.
"No no, don't worry… I usually wear this around the house so its no big deal for me" he simply said before taking my hands away from my face and flashing that brilliant smile with his dimples on full show straight at me. To this I couldn't help but smile, noticing how Harry hadn't even let go off my hand yet, instead he started entwining our fingers together, causing me to smile even more. It was like we were in our own world, just gazing and smiling at each other until Louis butted in and ruined the moment for us. "Yeah he's not kidding love" Louis suddenly added before I saw Harry give him a stern look in return as I giggled when Louis started mocking us with his kissy faces.
Zayn's P.O.V
As soon as I saw Sazia walk into the room I swear to god, my heart skipped a beat. I didn't think it was even possible for her to get any gorgeous yet here she is looking beautiful as ever. It was like she didn't even have to try to dress up or anything. She was naturally beautiful… inside and out. She just doesn't know it.
She wore a long graphic white loose cropped-top paired with some dark skinny jeans and cute uggs. Her straight hair was left down so that it fell perfectly down her back, as her front side fringe was braided and clipped up to the side. She wasn't wearing any makeup on except for maybe a little bit of mascara, but like I said…she was naturally beautiful so she didn't need it. As I watched her scan the whole entire room, our eyes suddenly met and I patted the seat next to me whilst giving her a smile before she returned it and sat beside me, but as soon as she sat down and got comfortable, I pulled her legs so that they were placed right on top of my lap. As we both started talking about everything.
Alicia's P.O.V
The minute I walked in, I saw Niall drop everything he was doing and came straight up to me, taking me in his arms before we both sat down on one of the sofas and he started playing with my hair. This gave me a chance to look around, as I saw Giulia cuddling up to Harry, talking and everything, Sazia had her legs on Zayn's lap talking about something before they both started laughing together, whilst Liam was on his phone at the far end of the room once again… gosh, he's been on his phone texting someone ever since we got here… then I noticed Louis and Eleanor weren't in the room.
"Hey, where did Louis and Eleanor go?" I asked Niall as he smiled down at me.
"They went out to get us food" he said before I nodded and we started talking about other random things.
15 minutes later…
The front door slammed shut as we watched Louis sprint into the living room first, carrying bags in his right hand and Eleanor's hand in his left, both huffing and puffing unsteadily, as if they had just ran a marathon.
"Oh…. My…d-dear… LORD!" Louis said, taking in deep breaths after each word.
"What happened?" we all blurted out immediately.
"We were just about to leave the shop when a group of fans spotted us and started screaming, then the next thing we knew it, there were a lot more fans and paparazzi's everywhere! We ran and they followed us!" Louis explained all in one go before catching his breath again.
"They're not outside are they!" Zayn suddenly asked as they both shook their heads, wanting to say more until Niall had interrupted. "Simon would kill us if they know where we live! They'd practically tear this place apart just to get to us!" Niall added as we all gave him that serious glare at him before he cocked one eyebrow at us all.
"What?" he confusingly asked, as I couldn't help but giggle at how cute he looked when he was confused.
"WELL THANK YOU CAPTAIN OBVIOUS!" Harry yelled sarcastically at Niall.
"NO NO GUYS! They're not outside our door! Luckily we took a short cut to get here so I think we lost them…but MAN, they were all going crazy!" Louis said before shaking his head one more time, as if trying to shake the thought out of his head.
"Pheeeeeeeew" We sighed together in relief at the same time. That was until we all gave each other a few secret grins afterwards, just before we took the nearest pillow we could find and starting lobbing them at Louis who was very taken aback at our actions.
"Oww, ow, ohh, ouch! GUYS! STOP IT, Why are you throwing pillows at me?" He said whilst trying his best to pretend like he really was hurt.
"Because it took you such a god damn time to get to the point! You got us all worried for a second there!" Zayn stated.
"Yeah Lou, you really are bad at telling stories! I mean, who pauses during a dramatic part?" Sazia defended before we all saw Zayn whisper into her ear a quick 'thanks babe' and immediately seeing a huge smile appear on her face.
"Uh Me? I need to breathe guys!" Louis replied, obviously still pretending to be both shocked and ashamed of how thoughtless we were as he placed his hands on top of his chest dramatically before turning his head away.
"Only Louis would pause to breath for that long" Harry sighed as we all burst into series of laughing fits and I think I even saw Liam in the far end corner chuckling.
"Remind me never to let you tell me a scary story because chances are… I will most probably pee my pants" Giulia randomly stated as Louis cheekily grinned back at her in return and we all ended up laughing again.
Sazia's P.O.V
Half an hour later… After Louis and Eleanor had both prepared the KFC food onto the table and we had all eaten, we then all decided to slip into our pajama's before Harry and Giulia both suggested we play a few games of 20 questions first so that the guys could get to know us a little better before we then played truth or dare.
"Right then, Liam are you going to finally put down that phone and come join us or what?" Zayn asked, whilst nudging him by the arm as he slipped his phone back into his pocket.
"Who does he keep texting all the time?" I whispered to Zayn as he grinned at me before replying.
"Danielle, his girlfriend who's all the way in America right now" Oh so that's why he hasn't stopped texting! Awww how cute I thought to myself before I nodded.
"So what's you're favorite color?" Louis asked first to us three.
"Blue I guess" I replied first."Mine too! High-five" Zayn immediately said as I high-fived him in return.
"PINK!" Giulia then squealed after me.
"Green" Alicia simply said before smiling…and by smiling I mean she was smiling at Niall in particular.
"Hmm… interesting…. Harry didn't you say pink was your favorite color on a girl?" Louis winked at Harry as I noticed him blushing beside Giulia who was giggling.
Righty then, next question… do you have any siblings?" Niall questioned.
"Yeah, 3 sisters and 1 brother" I stated.
"Yeppp, 1 younger sister!" Giulia shouted out next.
"Nope, I'm an only child… but I wish I had one" Alicia said a little quieter this time as me and Giulia shook our head in return.
"No you DON'T Lic! You're so lucky you don't have sisters, god there annoying as hell!" me and Giulia said at the same time, then looked at each other and started saying "JINX, DOUBLE JINX, THRIPLE JINX" over and over again until I had won.
Suddenly then realizing that everyone else was laughing at us as we both cheekily grinned back, Harry was next to asked us all a question after wards.
"Okay, who were your last boyfriends and why did it end?" Harry asked before flashing his classy brilliant smile with his dimples on full show straight at us…but to be more pacific…mainly at Giulia.
"Well it was this guy called Lewis (A/N: ahahahahahaaa sorry giu:L) we were together and everything and it was going great until I found out he was cheating on me behind my back…so then I dumped him" Giulia confidently said all in one go but I could tell there was a hint of sadness in her eyes.
"Wow, well I don't know why on earth he would cheat on you because any guy would be lucky enough to have a gorgeous girl like you in their arms" Harry quickly replied as we all shouted out a few 'awww's at them. They soo needed to get together already!
"Okay, well mine was called Daniel, he was one of those popular guys at school and I was foolish enough to think that he actually did love me because it turns out that he was only using me to get to one of my other close friends back home" I said the last line a little quicker before dropping my head down in shame, right before Zayn tilted my chin up so that our eyes met as he softy said "He didn't deserve you anyway" before he smiled at me and pulled me closer to his side whilst placing a delicate kiss on my cheek, immediately putting a smile on my face.
"and Lic?" they all eagerly asked, turning towards her as she sat fiddling with her hands in her lap before she started telling us about what happened with her and Matt.
"It was this guy called Matt. I guess you can say he was the player type. Always flirting with other girls. He made me feel special, like I was the one for him until reality had hit me and I found out about his reputation with girls. So I had talked to him about it but he kept denying it and somewhere along the lines, he totally lost it and decided to end it there saying there were far better girls out there than me…" she paused as I saw her sighing with disappointment.
"Woah. Aww come here Lic" Niall said whilst pulling her into his arms and trying to cheer her up. It was actually really sweet of Niall to do that, since Alicia was back to her smiley self after wards.
"What's your favorite song at the moment?" Eleanor asked next, probably trying to lighten up the mood a bit. "Well, I'm really loving that new song called 'one thing' by this boy band called one direction that I just recently heard on the radio" I sarcastically said before everyone started laughing.
"hmmm… you certainly do have a good taste in music babe" Zayn chuckled, obviously playing along.
"Yes, a very good taste in music!" Louis mockingly added after Zayn as I couldn't help but giggle at Zayn's reaction to this.
"I LOVE NIKKI MINAJ'S NEW SONG STARSHIPS…what a tune, oh and JESSIE J - LASERLIGHT!" Giulia blurted out whilst doing a little dance of her own after wards which had made us all giggle.
Zayn's P.O.V
"OKAY NOW LETS PLAY TRUTH OR DARE!" Harry yelled, throwing his hands up in the air as they all cheered after the last question Alicia had answered to Liam's question.
As I placed the empty bottle in the middle of our circle, I then spun it around until it had landed on Sazia first.
"Truth or dare saz?" I cheekily asked as she picked dare.
"Right, I dare you to sing one of our songs from the album!" I said as her mouth dropped almost instantly when I mentioned 'sing'.
"No way! Omg that would be so embarrassing!"
"That's the whole point! Now sing!" I chuckled before chanting her name whilst the guys started to join in.
"Ugh fine but NO RECORDING K?" she pointed out as we all nodded our heads in return and she started singing along to the chorus of Up All Night. By the time she had finished singing we were all sat there in shock.
"Well that was a fail!" I suddenly blurted out at the fact that I had tried to embarrass her a little for a laugh and it had definitely turned out as one big fail.
"What? Was I really that bad?" she giggled whilst scanning our faces for some answers.
"No nooo, you were AMAZING Saz! Wow, I honestly didn't think you had it in you!" I admitted as she thanked us all before sitting back down and spun the bottle. It landed on Liam and he had decided to pick truth.
"LIAM, what's the scariest dream you've ever had? And what was it about?" Sazia asked.
"Well it has most definitely got to be the dream when I was surrounded by nothing but giant spoons! And then they started chasing me down a hill or something until I woke up. But god it was terrifying" Liam shook his head as if to shake the thought out as Zayn patted him on the back.
"Yeah, Liam was really frightened by that dream. I remember how I was the first one to find him screaming like a little girl in his bed with his old Sheriff Woody doll beside him!" Zayn added as we all busted into fits of laughter.
"HA HA HA... laugh all you want, but it was actually quite a scary thought... and to dream about it... oh god" Liam sarcastically said, causing us all to erupt with laughter all over again.
After we had calmed down, Liam had spun the bottle and the next one landed on Louis. "YAY I PICK DARE" he shouted out immediately.
"Anyone got any good dares?" Liam asked around the circle as I decided to volunteer for this one.
"Louis Tomlinson I dare you to give the player to the left of you a piggy back ride." I giggled as I saw Giulia's immediate reaction to this. Her eyes widened as Louis turned to her with a mischievous grin plastered on his face.
"Well don't just sit there m'love, HOP on!" he said as we all continued laughing at how Giulia kept shaking her head back and forth whilst holding tightly onto Harry's arm.
Giulia's P.O.V
"No, no noooooo, I know you will drop me!" I stated until the next thing I knew it, Louis had turned around and grabbed me by the legs, flipping me on top of him as I screamed, furious at how Harry had let me slip away from his side.
"Relax love, I'm not gonna drop you! I'm… SUPERMAAAAAAN!" he suddenly said, using his silly superhero voice again as he started running around the house so fast I thought I was going to be sick any minute.
"LOUISSS PUT ME DOWN PLEAAASE!" I yelled whilst hitting him across the shoulder as I tried getting off but Louis was one step ahead of me and he knew exactly what I was trying to do, he then pulled me back up over his back.
"You do know that if you try to squirm out of my grasp again, you will end up falling right?" He said over his shoulder as I looked down at the ground seeing it move much faster now as I started screaming again, securing my arms around his neck as tightly as I could whilst closing my eyes and hoping this madness would just end already.
5 minutes later and I had noticed Louis had stopped, as I felt myself fall back down safely onto the sofa, I then opened my eyes to see Harry by my side once again, with his arms wide open as I cuddle back into his embrace looking absolutely petrified.
"THAT. WAS. HORRIFYING" I yelled whilst giving Louis that certain look as he quickly replied with a "Your welcome!" before I rolled my eyes at him and cuddled back with Harry who was now tracing circles up my arm. And just when I thought that would've been the worst dare for the night, guess who the bottle landed on when Louis had spun it? Me!
"Oh god no." I muttered.
"Giulia, I dare you to do the cinnamon challenge!" Louis squealed with excitement, obviously very eager to see me do it as I got back up on my feet and went to the kitchen, bringing back a whole jar of cinnamon and an average sized spoon.
I then noticed how Liam had suddenly backed away and was now sat way down at the back probably because I was holding a spoon in my hand at the moment, as I chuckled at the thought before I started poured the cinnamon onto the spoon. I then looked around, seeing everyone's looking so interested to see how I would take it before I shoved it down my throat, trying to hold it in my mouth as I tried swallowing it for as long as I could, but it was no use, the cinnamon was burning my throat as I began choking whilst spitting it all out after about 10 seconds of holding it in.
More cinnamon was still coming out of my mouth as I kept coughing non-stop. I quickly ran for it to the kitchen, opening the fridge to find that there was no water there at all!
Jeeez, they live in this big house and there's no drink around here? I thought to myself until I had spotted the sink and rushed over there, sticking my head under the tap as I turned it on and I started gulping down the tap-water. Yeah I know, tap water is disgusting but when you're dying of thirst from doing the cinnamon challenge and there was nothing drinkable around the house, this would be the only option I would've taken.
About 5 minutes later after my throat felt a lot better, I then pulled my head out from the sink to find them all standing behind me, absolutely peeing themselves with laughter, tears in their eyes as they clenched their tummies. All of them except for Louis.
"Where's Louis?" I asked a little confused as they all pointed to the ground, clearly laughing to much to even tell me as I looked down to see Louis laughing uncontrollably whilst rolling on the floor having the most funniest laughing fit I had even seen before.
"Guys that wasn't funny! I COULD HAVE DIED!" I stated as they all continued to laugh.
After about 10 minutes later, when everyone else had calmed down, we all sat back in our circle and continued our game. We ended up doing more dares than truths, such as prank calling strangers and doing other challenges for a good laugh.
Harry's P.O.V
By the time we had finished playing truth or dare it was nearly 8pm so we all decided to sit down and have a movie marathon for the rest of the night.
I sat by Giulia of course, playing with her curls, whilst Zayn had his arm around Sazia, Niall was next to Alicia, both sharing a massive bucket load of Ben&Jerry's cookie-dough ice cream…
Wait what. Wow Niall for once is actually SHARING food with someone…she must be something special to him then, I thought to myself.
Eleanor was sat on Louis' lap talking as Liam was sat just beside them texting away as usual to Danielle.
We decided to watch Grease first for Niall and then Forest Gum, Scarface, Love Actually, Dear John(for the girls of course), Toy Story 1, 2 and 3 (mind you, Liam does love his toy story a lot) and finally a classic scary movie.
By the time we were watching the horror movie it had just gone past 3am when we were all still wide away and totally into the movie. However, Giulia stayed cuddled by my side most of the time, with a blanket wrapped around her protectively. Her eyes were closed tightly trying not to imagine what would happen next in during the scene. I guess she hated horror movies then.
"Don't look inside, don't look inside, don't look inside…" they all whispered to the TV until Liam's phone in our living room started to ring loudly, scaring the crap out of us all. Especially Giulia, she ended up screaming the loudest.
"Sorry guys!" he said before showing us his phone and disappearing into another room as we all placed our hands against our chest, clearly almost having a heart-attack after that.
Half an hour later, when Liam came back into the living room; looking very happy all of a sudden, he then took the remote from the side and switched the television off whilst flickering the lights back on. "HEY! We were watching that!" Zayn annoyingly yelled a bit too loud as I realized Sazia, Alicia and Niall had fallen asleep during the last half hour and had just woken up.
Sazia's P.O.V
"What's going on?" I asked, whilst rubbing my eyes and stretching my arms out.
"Sorry I woke you up" I heard Zayn whisper in my ears before he placed a light kiss by the side of my cheek.
"It's alright" I said whilst smiling at him before turning my attention to Liam who was standing right in front of us all.
"GUYS! DANIELLE JUST CALLED! SHE'S COMING TO VISIT NEXT WEEK AND STAYING FOR THE WHOLE SUMMER WITH US!" Liam announced as we all cheered for him, well all except for Giulia and Alicia who were by far confused about who this Danielle was as they looked at me I quickly mouthed the words 'his girlfriend' to them before they understood and started nodding.
"Wow that's really great Li! I can't wait to meet her!" I said to Liam as his smile grew wider.
"Thanks and yeah, you girls are going to love her, she's wonderful!" he replied as he crashed back down on the sofa, Eleanor then decided to sit beside us as she started to tell us more about Danielle.
And judging by what Eleanor was telling us, she definitely sounded like a lovely girl who really cares for Liam. I mean, especially when she's coming all the way over here to spend the rest of her summer holidays here in London when she could've stayed in New York or LA to dance for other famous artists on TV…
By the time Eleanor had finished talking, it was nearly half 3 and nearly everyone else in the room was fast asleep.
As I decided to get some sleep myself, I then cuddled up to Zayn some more, leaning my head against his chest as I fell asleep like that. With his arms wrapped safely around me.
Okay so that's the end of chapter 8! :) Hope you all enjoyed reading it! Please could you all review this, it took me ages to write this up and it's now officially the longest chapter I've written so far! :L xxxx
