Forever and Always
Chapter 9
“I can’t believe we are actually doing this!” Kiera squeals from the bathroom. She was putting makeup on herself while I was on the bed, doing my nails. “Thank God your cousins went with your parents.”
“Yeah...” I start. I couldn’t think properly because Tyler reminded me about the dirty little secret and I haven’t told Harry about it. Currently, both of them were downstairs playing Fifa.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” she asks, emerging from the bathroom.
I wiped my sweaty palms on my bed. “It’s Harry. I haven’t told him about it.” I say emphasizing the word it.
“About what?” Kiera asks again as she sat beside me.
“It.” I answer bulging my eyes.
“Oh.” Kiera says. “Harry wouldn’t mind. I mean, he’s Harry! And he didn’t even ask about it. So, stop worrying and go get yourself ready.”
“Really?” I ask.
“I’m sure. And I have a Mexican third eye and it’s never wrong.”
I exhale deeply. “Fine. I’ll forget about it for now.” I say standing up. I grabbed my curling irons and lay them on my dressing table and went to the bathroom to take a bath. A few minutes later, while I was rubbing my legs with soap, Kiera started playing some One Direction songs. She probably misses Niall already. Every time Harry’s voice came up, it literally gave me goose bumps. I sang along when the song was “Rock Me” and I stepped out of the shower and wrapped my body with a towel.
I stare at my reflection and noticed some bruises on my arms. God, Harry’s such a vampire at times. Suddenly, the music stops and I squint, opening the door. Kiera was reading something on her phone and she looked mad and sad at the same time. She was finally wearing her dress and she really looked hot. Suddenly, she clicks her phone shut and she looks up to stop the tears from flowing.
“Did I miss anything?” I ask, stepping out. When Kiera saw me, she covers her eyes and buries herself in my bed.
“Leave me alone to die.” She murmurs.
“Look, just tell me what happened.” I say. I grabbed my thong and a bra and wore it while Kiera wasn’t looking. When I was done, I wrap the towel on my head and sat on the bed beside her. She doesn’t say anything. Instead, she grabs her phone, unlocks it and gave it to me to read.
Yep, if you listen carefully this morning, you can hear hearts shattering into a squillion pieces all across the land, as it’s been rumoured today that One Direction singer Niall Horan has reportedly started cheating on Kiera Holt for Zoe Whelan, Irish model and general bodacious babesome beauty, after meeting her at a One Direction concert.
According to The Sun, Nialler spotted Zoe backstage at a gig and has been ‘secretly seeing’ her for a number of months. The sly dog. We'll never trust that angelic little face again.
A pesky inside source dished the dirt and said “Niall has been secretly seeing Zoe for a couple of months after he met her backstage. She’s a Dubliner but is based in London to work on her modelling career. Zoe’s travelled all over the UK to meet up with Niall on the band’s tour. But the biggest sign he’s really serious about her is that he introduced her to his whole family at his brother’s wedding.”
The insider went on to add “Zoe’s the first girlfriend Niall has brought back to his hometown of Mullingar since making it big, so it was a big deal and the talk of his family at the wedding. Niall’s protective of her as she’s shy, but his family all really took a shine to Zoe.”
Okay, that’s just plain weird. We do all know that our cute little Irish leprechaun is dating Kiera Holt but is it all over now?
On further super sleuthing work (we googled her), she apparently even has Niall’s hat, telling him on Twitter “Still got your hat @NiallOfficial ner ner you can have it back tonight xx”, and they bond over their mutual appreciation for orthodonture “Got my braces back on... Only for 2 weeks though! We're twinnies now @NiallOfficial! Xx”.
It sort of makes us wonder if she was the mysterious girl hiding in his car the other week...
Well, maybe our Irish boy isn’t content with one girl only.
My mouth was hanging open after I read the article. I never thought Niall was like that. I was sure he loved Kiera. “Kiera, I-I- don’t think you should take this seriously. I mean, the press says crazy stuff.”
“I know that, Holly. I’m not 12 anymore. But, that has enough evidence. That’s why Niall was always out.”
I sigh. “You know what, let’s just cancel the party and-”
“No!” Kiera shouts. “The party must go on and I know how to avenge myself.” She says standing up.
“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” I murmur.
“Holly, look at me.” She says sternly and I did, her Hazel eyes staring right through me. “I’m 18 and wise. Okay?”
I nod. I can see she is pissed and I didn’t like messing with her when she’s mad so I just raised my hand in defeat and we continue to fix ourselves in silence.
The house was packed an hour later and people were loud and noisy. The music reached a few blocks from here and it smelled like sweat, smoke and alcohol. I haven't seen Harry ever since the party started, probably because he was being asked for a picture every five minutes.
"HOLLY WINTERS!" I hear someone panic. When I turned around, I came face to face with Melody and her boyfriend, Christian, which was my ex.
"Melody! Christian!" I say, giving them both a hug. When we pull apart, Melody pushes Christian away and she takes my hand and we sat on the sofa.
"So, how does it feel like dating Harry Styles?" she asks.
I roll my eyes. "Normal?"
She laughs making me flinch and she drags me again and led me to the bar. She grabs two red cups, fills them with beer and pulls me to a group of people who were playing beer pong. "Guys, Holly Winters, remember?" she shouts.
"YEAH!! WINTERS WAZAPP??" they shout. They were all already tipsy and one of them pulls me and hands me a mini ball. I drank my beer first before I threw it and it perfectly landed on the red cup. It was handed to me clumsily and some spill on my dress but I didn't care and drank all of it. Everyone was chanting that I got worked up. I continue playing Beer pong until I drank 8 cups and everything was going fuzzy.
"That's how we do it!" Kiera shouts out of no where. She takes the ball from me and threw it and it lands on the cup perfectly. She runs to it and drank it all in a few seconds. "Let's dance!" she shouts. She drags me to the dance floor and we dance, swaying our hips side to side. As for Kiera, someone reached out and grinded at her and she grins cokily and grined back.I watched them in amazement when out of no where, I felt hands on my waist. When I turn aroun, it was Harry. He was looking down at me with a concerned expression.
"Holly, are you drunk?"
"Noooooo..." I slur. "Just really, really drunk." I laugh at my joke and noticed Harry wasn't laughing.
"Okay, you are drunk." he says, lifting me up in the air.
"NOOOOO! I STILL WANNA DANCE!" I whine. I struggled against Harry's grasp and he finally let's go and stares at me.
"Fine. You can go dance but no more drinking, okay?" he says sternly.
"Okayyy!" I shout, excited. I went closer to him and whispered seductively, "Excited for the prize tonight?" Harry freezes and I laugh, walking away toward the dance floor and continue to dance. When I spot Tyler, I walk over to him and I started dancing.
"Are you enjoying the party?" he asks.
I nod and turned around to see Kiera making out with some hot guy. When I looked back at Tyler, he was staring at me and I grin, walking toward him and pressed my body against him. We continue to dance that close and Peter, a former friend handed me a drink. I brought it to my lips and drank the whole thing and gave it back to him. The loud music was intense and I could faint in any moment now. Suddenly, Tyler takes my hand and spins me around and I giggle.
"Seiously, why did you two ever break up anyway?" Melody asks.
Tyler shrugs while I was about to answer when I hear a familiar voice. "You dated?" When I turn around, it was Harry and I gasped. My mouth was completely glued. "And you never told me?"
"Harry, I-"
"How could you, Holly? You knew I hated him at first. You knew." he was staring at me like he was so hurt,
"I'm so sorry, you never asked, I though-"
"Asked?!? Do I have to ask?" he exploded. "You!" he shouts at Tyler. "I asked you and you lied!"
"Sorry man, I thought it will be much better if-" but Tyler wasn't even able to finish his sentence before Harry punched him. He fell to the floor and Harry followed, punching him right at the face.
"Harry! Stop!" I shout. I pulled on his arm but he continues punching him. Suddenly, I felt something build up in my stomach before everything went dark.
“Yeah...” I start. I couldn’t think properly because Tyler reminded me about the dirty little secret and I haven’t told Harry about it. Currently, both of them were downstairs playing Fifa.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” she asks, emerging from the bathroom.
