Chapter 8- Birthday wish

(Harry)

I get Louis up pretty early, which he wasn't happy about but Alice wakes up early so I gotta get this in time.

I rush him in the car and pull out.

(Alice)

Harry reaches out and grabs my hand as we walk. It shocked the heck out of me but he stops and faintly smiles at me.

"I've wanted you for a while, Alice. Please let me..." he begs as his hair falls on my forehead.

I try to take this in and think but my mind goes blank and spazy when he lets his lips brush mine for a moment.

I wanted to quiver up to a raisen I was so empty minded. "Please..." he begs and finally leans in more.

I jolt myself awake to a smirking Harry and a furry friend.

I push the dream aside in shock as the little gray puppy stands with one paw on me and his tail hitting Harry's stomach.

"Aw! Harry!" I squeal as I lean forward and scrunch my face to the dogs.

"He's adorable!" I say and Harry slightly laughs. "I was hoping you'd like him." he says.

"His bow fell off..." he says smacking the blue bow on his head.

I laugh as he growls at Harry and Harry squints and gets in his face. "I'm ten times you're size both human and dog..." he threatens and the dog barks in his face so Harry grabs him and rolls over as he roughly plays with him.

"Be nice Harry!" I order and he sits up and points down at him. "I'm alpha of this bitch!" he says and I laugh and take the pup away from him.

"Is he a bully? Yeah I know." I saw playing with his floppy ears.

"I'm his dad so Im the dominent one!" he says smirking as he lays fown next to me again.

"Who's the mom?" I ask curiously.

"I believe, you." he says grinning and I poke his dimple.

"Don't be getting any ideas cause its not happenin'" I say and he smirks.

"I don't know... I wish I saw how that dream was gonna end cause it was getting pretty sexy." he jokes and I get up.

"Ugh!"

I meet Louis downstairs cooking breakfeast and giggle. "Is this really nesseccary?" I ask as he picks me up in a hug.

He mushes a wet kiss on my cheek and sings the happy birthday song but refuses to put me down so he spins me.

"Lou!" I laugh. "Louis! Not yet!" Harry laughs and Louis stops and flat out drops me on the floor with a thud. "Ouch! Louis! That hurt!" I say rubbing my butt as Harry helps me up. "Be nice to the birthday girl!" Harry smirks as he hugs my neck to his chest. His hair tickled my cheek.

"Where's the puppy?" Louis asks curiously and Harry freezes before letting go of me and storming in the room. "Probably done pissed on my carpets!" he mutters as he vanishes.

Louis leans on the counter smirking at me. "It wont be long now..." he says. "What?" I ask and he shakes his head.

"Nothing." he laughs. Then hairy Harry walks in panting.

He had the miniture dog hanging from his mouth. Me and Louis both catch the similarity at the same time and start bursting out in laughter after we glance at each other.

I laugh so hard I fall on the floor along with Louis. The puppy goes to Louis and Harry hovers over me with his bright green lightening eyes and his ears perked forward.

"Hi Harry." I say petting his fur.

"I have Harry jr.!" Louis announces as he scoops up the puppy.

Harry growls at him and I hit his cheek jokefully. He sends me a look before turning around and sitting on me.

I groan. A 200 pound dog/ man sitting on me... just what I wants.

I pound his leg but he doesn't budge but his tail could knock the lights outta someone if he tried.

Louis puts the puppy on me next to Harrys big butted self and amuses himself. "Haha! Like father like son!" he says and the puppy barks proudly.

Harry finally gets up and jogs into the other room and a few minutes later returns still buttoning his shirt and leans on the doorway.

Teaser!

Louis nudges me with a smirk and I hit him causing Harry to look up at us and we play innocent and face away from each other.

"So... whatcha wanna do today love?" Louis asks and both of them look at me. "Yeah. Have you got anything in mind?" he asks and I shake my head.

"I never really celebrated my birthday..." I admit and they raise an eyebrow like I'm crazy.

I know I am...

"Well not today." Harry smiles.

"Seriously! I'm fine I don't need to do anything!"  I say like nothing but birthdays were of more of a touchy subject.

Louis gets a call on his phone and excuses himself to answer it.

Harry looks at me as Louis walks out of the room. "You have to at leased have one thing that you want right now?" he says and Niall pops in my mind. Harry's starting to get impatient with me missing Niall. I can tell by his reaction every time I think of him. Well, what do you expect? Me to just pretend we didn't spend the past year together?

He goes to say something but Louis walks in. "Hey, the lady needs me to help her while she's in town." he informs and Harry nods. "Okay."

"And I'll leave you two alone..." he mutters to Harry as he points and Harry pushes Louis.

Harry thinks for a long moment on what to do before making up his mind.

"Come here..." he says dragging me into the livingroom. He turns on the stereo and smirks at me as Little Black Dress comes on.

"What are you doing?" I ask and he turns the song to Irrisistable. Then he faces me and walks across the room and takes one of my hands and slowly puts his free hand on my hip. "Dance with me Alice." he says with his eyes smiling.

I giggle as I look down blushing slightly.

I follow his lead but I nearly faint when he rests his forehead on mine.

He smiles and lightly laughs under his breath. Probably at my reaction.

My hands were sweaty, I felt waves of the ocean in my stomach, I can't remember feeling this much of a mess in a long time.

"Do I make you nervous?" he asks still holding his head to mine. I'd figure he'd know the answer.

I hesitate before taking a breath and preparing to answer but decide to stall. "Why?" I ask and he takes his head off mine to make eye contact.

"Because I know I do but I want you to admit it." he admits and I look at him. How exactly did he begin thinking about this?

"Uh..." I stutter almost under my breath. The knot made my throat tight as I find it hard to control my voice.

"Maybe you're wrong." I say twisting his plan. I wasn't about to get deep.

His eyes get a little tenser as he squints his eyes and lets go of me. "Ohhh I see what you're doing..." he sighs and looks away.

"Harry I-"

"I know exactly how you think of me Alice. I can read you like a book so why don't you just say it to me?" he asks.

I look to the side and awkwardly rub the back of my head. "Because I can't Harry." I stutter out. It was difficult to spit it out because I honestly didn't know where he was trying to go.

I know that wasn't the answer he wanted but this wasn't expected... He looks down and clenches his jaw before looking back up at me. "I understand..." he says and sighs as he walks away.

I didn't realize I hurt him until I hear him talking to the puppy on the couch. "She'll never love me..." he sighs.

I feel like complete crap now... I didn't mean to hurt him. I knew he always sort of had a thing for me but I thought he let it go.

I avoid going downstairs and spend the rest of my birthday in confusion and depression.

I hate birthdays...

I hear a knock on the door and Harry comes in and sits next to me.

"What are you doing up here alone? Its your birthday!" he says sounding cheerful but we both knew he wasn't.

I shrug. "Birthdays don't matter to me..." I say honestly and he pulls his legs up on the bed and sits in front of me.

"Why do you think that?" he asks.

I shrug. "I don't know. My family never cared about our birthdays so I just avoid them..." I admit and he looks at me with a sigh.

"What am I going to do with you Alice Diamond?" he asks and I sort of laugh.

He faintly smiles and looks at me for a moment. I try to read what he's thinking about and pick up on Don't do it...

He looks away and rubs the back of his head.

"So uh... why don't you come downstairs with me?" he asks and I get up  and walk with him downstairs.

"On the couch I get a chill and shiver and he laughs. "A little cold?" he asks and I nod.

"Would you want my jacket?" he asks and gets up before I could answer.

He comes back with one of his sweatshirts and puts it over my shoulders. "There you go love." he says and I pull the sweatshirt tighter. "Thanks." I say as he sits down again.

As I notice he's completely on the other side of the couch, it somewhat irratates me. I look at him for a moment as he stares at the TV before deciding why not?

"Hey Harry?" I ask catching his attention.

"Hm?" he asks.

I look at him for a moment before scooting over to his side of the couch and confusing Harry as I push his arm out of the way and hug his side for warmth.

He was a little stunned but ends up hanging his arm around me and not questioning me.

His scent and his soft heartbeat put me to sleep until I feel myself being gently carried by warmth.

I wasn't fully awake but I was awake enough to feel what happened.

I feel his lips press against my cheek and realize he kissed me. Aw he can be sweet at times.

He doesn't hug me from behind like he did last night so I keep my eyes shut and grab his side again. Im starting to become adicted to his warmth now...

(Harry)

I don't fully understand her...

One moment she's black. Then another moment she's white. What is she?

I wake up before her and look down at her still clinged to my shirt. She never moves in her sleep anymore.

I sigh and stay for a few minutes to watch her.

But the more I do the more depressed I get so I walk away and lay down on the couch with my head phones in my ears. I stare at the song that comes on of us and smile. Irrisistable...

I turn it up all the way and hum the toon.

(Alice)

I wake up in a cold bed and sit up. He left me here the little bugger!

I yawn and get up before realizing I was still in his sweatshirt... I'm keeping it on! Its too cold to take it off.

I walk downstairs to a soft,husky,velvety hum on the couch so I remain on the top step and peek around the corner to watch him.

I wish Niall would've been more comfortable singing all the time like Harry. He's not afraid of his voice.

He gets up and sings on as he does something in the kitchen.

I listen to him sing the chorus as I sneek downstairs to the kitchen. I bravely walk across the kitchen and lean on the counter 2 feet away from him. He glances at me and smirks but continues singing and making his coffee.

He was on Nialls part now.

He stops and pulls the ear buds out of his ears and lools at me. "Did you need something?" he asks with a faint smirk.

"Sing Through the Dark again!" I say and he smiles and shakes his head.

He glances up and smirks when he hits the Chorus. Oh I would carry you over fire and water for your love, and I will hold you closer. Hope your heart is strong enough. When the night is coming down on ya, we will find our way through the dark...

I hold in my smile just to not fangirl anymore. But his voice had that morning richness to it making it even sweeter through the bridge.

"I'm home!" Louis announces from the livingroom and Harry stops singing.

"Someone got layed last night..." Harry says to me and Lou hangs in the doorway and grins. "Actually yeah!" he admits and walks up to us. "Did you guys?" he asks winking at Harry. Harry smirks and nods. "Yes Louis we totally went at it all day when you left!" he says and my jaw drops. Awkward! Harry winks at me as Louis closes my mouth and pats my cheek. "Don't be shocked. We all think Harry's good in bed!" he says and I glare at him before punching his arm.

"Ouch!" he rubs his arm.

Harry rolls his eyes.

As we all 3 sit on the couch, Harry looks at me. "So did you decide if you wanted to go to the concert yet?" he asks awkwardly and Louis jumps up. "Oh Alice! Please! Please! Please!" he shakes my arm.

"Um... I haven't really thought about it..." I admit and Harry looks at Louis before rolling off the couch and crying. "Alice! You broke his heart! Shame on you!" Lou crosses his arms and I look down at Harry fake crying on the floor.

"Ugh! Fine ill go!" I say in surender and they both jump up at the same time and plant a kiss on my cheek and saying "Thanks love!" in harmony.

Babies.... -.-
