Chapter Four: Rehearsals First Date and Embarrasing Friends

{Jade's POV}


I stare blankly at the wall where the photos of Sam and I hang. How could he? What in his right mind made him do it? And with that girl? Ergh!


I throw the television remote at the photo and it shatters the glass and dents the photo. I take them all down and hang up ones of me with the girls and the guys. Much better!


I've decided to not waste my time pondering over Sam, I'm just going to get back out there, stronger than ever and I'm going to live a happy life like always!


I hear the beep of horn on Louis' car and rush outside and jump into the back where Zayn and Perrie are already situated. I give Perrie a kiss on the cheek and we head off.


"On a scale of one to ten, how excited are you?" Liam pipes up from the passenger seat.


"Ten!" Perrie squeals. Ouch Pezz!


"Ten." Louis and Zayn reply.


"Um," I mumble. I know the answer I'm just building the suspense. Perrie bounces in her seat. "Eleven" I cheer.


They all laugh and we eventually arrive at the O2. We head into the stadium and spot Harry, Leigh, Jesy and Niall sitting in the front row of chairs, believe it or not, on their phones.


It goes dark and the stage lights go red. Someone's going to practice something.


Suddenly Perri Kiely runs into the middle of the stage. Oh dear. It's Diversity! Yay- not.


They all dance and bound around the stage. When they finish we head up onto the stage and say hello to them. Everyone avoids Sam and he kind of looks like an outcast. Good. No Jade! That's rude. Ergh!


"Be the bigger person," a Bradford accent mutters in my ear. I nod and turn to Sam.


"Hello Sam, how are you today?" I ask him. Everyone freezes and looks at us. Sam looks shocked I talked to him.


"G- good thanks Jade. How are you?" He stutters. Damn right you be scared of me boy!


"Very well thank you," I smile before turning back to my smiling friends. "Shall we practice?" I ask. They all nor and Diversity leave the stage.


We run through the song a few times until Simon comes and watches. We all set up on stage. It's all dark until One Direction chant 'yeah you!'. The lights go on bright around the boys but not on us yet. They chant again.


"I used to wanna be, living like there's only me. But now I spend my time tryna think of ways to get you off my mind," Harry sings.


They boys chant yet again.


"I used to be so tough, never really gave enough. But then you caught my eye giving me the feeling of a lightning strike!" Niall sings.


(The Boys do all the chants throughout the song).


"Look at me now I'm falling. Can't even talk still stuttering. This ground I'm on keeps shaking oh, oh, oh now!" Louis and Zayn sing together.


"All I wanna be and all I ever wanna be yeah, yeah is somebody to you! All I wanna be and all I ever wanna be yeah, yeah is somebody to you! Everybody's tryna be a billionaire, but every time I look at you I just don't care! Cause all I wanna be and all I ever wanna be yeah, yeah is somebody to you!" The boys perfectly sing the chorus.


"I used to run around," Jesy and Leigh start singing. The lights come on us. "Never wanna settle down. But now I wake each day, looking for a way that I can see your face," they sing happily and beautifully.


"I got your photograph, but baby I need more than that. I need to know your lips, nothing ever mattered to me more than this," Perrie and I sing together, harmonizing.


We do the rest of the song together with Harry doing the slow bit in the bridge and Perrie doing Demi Lovato's high bit.


Once we're done we take a long drink each from our water bottles and then grab our stuff.


"What are people doing this afternoon?" I ask my friends.


"Jordan," Jesy replies.


"Jesy, we know you're 'doing' Jordan but that doesn't mean you mention it," Louis says sassily.


We burst into laughter as Jesy goes red. "Immature. Bye," she mutters walking off.


"Well, have to go meet El, babye," Louis skips off.


"Going home," Perrie says. Zayn nods in response to Perrie.


"I'll give you a lift," Niall suggests and they're off. Leigh disappears and Harry heads to his first date with Molly.


"It's just you and me Leeyum," I smile looking up at him.


"Wii sports?" He suggests.


"Why not?" I laugh and we head off.


{Harry's POV}


I walk down the street and straight into the cafe Molly and I agreed to meet at. I look around and spot her sitting at the back like I suggested she do.


I walk over and smile, sliding into the bench opposite her. She looks up, placing a little bit of her red hair behind her left ear. Her hair is up in a ponytail today.


"Hello," she smiles cheerfully.


"Hello love, how are you this afternoon?" I ask her. She locks her iPhone and places it back into her bag.


"I'm very well thank you Harry. How may you be?" She asks in a perfect British accent.


"Delightful. How has your day been?" I ask.


"Well, I had a shift until lunch time and that's about it," she replies kind of sounding bored. "But what about you?"


"The boys, the girls and I had rehearsals at the O2 for the Brits. We are," I lean in. "Performing together," I whisper to her. She shivers a bit at my breath hitting her skin.


"As in One Direction? And Little Mix?" She asks excited. I nod and then the waiter comes over.


"How can I help you two today?" He asks.


We order our food and drink and sit and chat.


"So Molly, tell me about you," I smile before reclining back in my chair/ bench thing.


"Um, well, my full name is Molly Claire Abbey and I turned twenty- three in January. I live in a small apartment and I have a Mum, Dad and younger sister Isabella who all live in Wales now," Molly explains. What a lovely family. "How about you Harry?" She asks sipping her milkshake.


"My full name is Harry Edward Styles, I turned twenty- four on the first of February, I have a Mum, a Dad, a step Dad and a older sister Gemma. They all live up near Manchester and on my birthday I met a very pretty girl who goes by the name Molly Abbey," I inform her. She blushes and looks down.


"Oh! And how could I forget my bestest friends, Louis W. Tomlinson, Liam J. Payne, Niall J. Horan, Zayn J. Malik, Leigh- Anne Pinnock, Jesy L. Nelson, Jade A. Thirlwall and Perrie L. Edwards, not to mention Eleanor J. Calder and quite possibly Ed Sheeran and Nick Grimshaw," I inform Molly.


She laughs at me and nods.


We keep chatting until Molly has to go back to work.


"Let me drive you," I suggest. She agrees and I drive her to the Starbucks she works at. "Can I come in?" I ask.


"You just had coffee," she replies.


"Yeah, but if would just like some time to watch my girlfriend do her job. After all, she'll be coming to the Brits to watch me," I smile. Molly's face turns to utter shock.


"Are y- you asking me to be your girlfriend?" Molly stutters. I nod smiling. "Okay," she nods before kissing me. I kiss her back before she pulls away slowly. "And what's the deal with the Brits?" She asks.


"I have my plus one ticket. You'll get to sit with Eleanor, once you meet her of course," I smile.


She squeals and then opens the car door. "Coming?" She asks me. I smile and hop out and follow her inside the average sized Starbucks that the boys and I often come to.


She walks out back to get ready and I take a seat where I can still see the counter but I'm kind of hidden. I watch as she gracefully serves people, with a big smile and delightful manners. Calling out names and taking people drinks.


Suddenly two people come in. Ones a girl, maybe my age, wearing black jeans, navy blue toms and a navy blue, fluffy jumper. I swear I have seen that outfit before! She has her hair all put up into a beanie and big Ray Bans on over her eyes. The guy has black jeans on too, they are rolled at the bottom though and matched with all black Vans. He has a red hoodie on and a flat cap on his head. He also has a moustache and Ray Ban aviators on.


They order their drinks and wait, giggling to themselves. Molly finishes making the drinks and walks over to the counter.


"Idea Dick!" She calls out. It comes out like I'd eat a dick. "And Wheresha Willy!" She calls. Where is your willy! Oh my gosh! People around us laugh and Molly goes bright red.


I watch the people take the drinks, chuckling to themselves and then I figure out who they are. The girl is Perrie, I can see a bit of her blonde hair and the guy, is Louis. I look at the screw tattoo on his foot.


They're so dead!


{Louis' POV}


"Idea Dick! And Wheresha Willy!" Molly calls. Perrie and I try not to laugh whilst over people do and we go up to the counter.


"Thanks love," I smile taking the drinks from Molly, who has gone red with embarrassment.


"We shall see you later," Perrie says in a German accent. I nod and we turn around, expecting to see Zayn, Eleanor and Niall waiting outside the door laughing, but instead we're met by Harry. Oops.


"Hello," he smiles.


"Guten Tag!" Perrie replies.


"Nice to meet you Idea and Wheresha," he shakes our hands.


"And you too," Perrie replies. That sounded Japanese, not German.


"Woah! Are you half German half Japanese?" Harry asks Perrie. She nods. "Or just full blown Geordie?" He smirks.


We nervous giggle. "Run!" Perrie squeals charging at the door. I dodge Harry and run after her, only to watch Perrie smack into it, because she tried to push when it's a pull. I run up the back of her and we both end up on the ground. We take off our hats and glasses and look up to see Harry standing over us, arms crossed.


Niall, Eleanor and Zayn come in laughing.


"Get up." Harry mumbles helping us up.


"Hey Harry! How long you been here? We've just been sun baking by the door here," Perrie smiles.


Harry sighs. "Come have coffee," he leads us to his table. We all sit down and wait. Considering Perrie and I spilt our drinks when we fell Harry calls Molly over to serve us again.


"Hi! How can I help?" She asks in a chirpy voice.


"Um, Eleanor will have a new iPhone case, I'll have a platinum album, Hazza's probably after a packet of condoms, Niall's after a banquet, Zayn's after a driver's license and Perrie will probably need a pregnancy test," I ask Molly.


"Louis!" Eleanor slaps my hand. Harry sighs and rests his head in his hands. Zayn and Niall laugh and I get an evil glare from Perrie.


"Fine! I'll have an iced cafe mocha, Eleanor will have a Strawberries and Cream, Niall will have a chai frappuchino and a blueberry muffin, Harry is probably after a Vanilla Frappuchino, Zayn's going to want a caramel Frappuchino and Perrie will have a Raspberry Blackcurrant juice with a side of pregnancy test," I smile at Molly. She takes the orders and then realises what she wrote down. She quickly scribbles out pregnancy test.


"Thanks Molly," Harry smiles and she walks off. I look at Perrie who is opposite me. She's glaring at me.


"Sorry Pepe," I say. She sighs and then smiles. Perrie is opposite me in between Zayn on her right and Harry on her left. I'm I between Niall, to my right and Eleanor to my left.


"She seems nice Hazz," Eleanor smiles looking back at Molly.


"She's lovely. Really is and now she is my girlfriend. She said yes!" Harry smiles proudly like he's just got an award at school.


"That's great Harry! When can we meet her?" Niall asks.


"Um Never after that," Harry replies. We all laugh and Harry ends up chuckling. "I'm thinking of organising a barbecue and pool day with everyone," Harry replies. We all nod. Harry turns to Zayn and Perrie.


"Our pool, is destroyed." Zayn glares at Niall and I. We snicker under our breaths. It is pretty funny!


"Well actually, only the fence is. Well be able to just charge at it and jump in now!" Niall smiles happily.


"Okay," Perrie nods. "When?"


"I'd like her to get to know you by the Brits and they're on the nineteenth of February so maybe we can have it, today's the third, maybe the seventh?" He asks. We all nod and Harry smiles.


Molly brings our drinks over and we all thank her.


"Molly," Harry stops her before she leaves. She turns around and comes back. "Um, we're having a barbecue on the seventh at Pezz and Zayn's, would you like to come with me? You will need your bathers," Harry smiles at her.


"Um yeah! That would be really nice thanks," she smiles at Perrie and Zayn.


"How was 'fun' with Harry?" Perrie asks Molly. Molly looks confused and we all crack up. Harry smacks his head down on the table and shakes it.


"Um, sorry?" Molly asks.


"Ignore Perrie please Molly. Most of the things that come out of her big mouth either make no sense or are cheeky, that was cheeky," Harry informs Molly. She gasps and goes red.


"I'm so sorry!" She looks at Zayn. "About, yeah," she adds. He just chuckles.


"Don't worry. Harry's the blind one who didn't realise which room he took you into," Zayn replies. Molly smiles and walks off.


"Are you freakin serious?" Harry looks at Perrie. She just giggles and sips her drink innocently.


We really know how to embarrass each other!
