Different

Chapter 51

Charlotte's point of view

The show is now over and the boys leave the stage and rush outside of the venue, to avoid being mobbed by the fans.

Harry avoids all contact with me and gets in the second car with Lou, Lottie and Sophia when I get in the first one with Liam, Niall, Zayn and Louis.

The trip to the hotel is quite long so I tell the boys what happened with Harry. Zayn and Niall take my side but Liam seems a little bit more reluctant towards my actions.

Twenty minutes later, we finally arrive at the hotel. The car in which Harry was is already parked and I feel nervous at the idea we'll have to share our room tonight.

I open the door and Harry is not here. Seeing his clothes tossed on the bed, I guess he got changed and went to the gym.

Indeed, I find him there, topless, running on the treadmill, his earphones in.

"Harry..."

I stand next to him but he doesn't seem to notice my presence, that or he is ignoring me.

"Harry !" I repeat, louder this time and stepping closer, my face next to his.

But he keeps running, looking at his feet.

"For fuck's sake Harry !" I shout, turning off the treadmill and snatching his earphones from his ears.

This time, he looks up at me in confusion, a big frown on his face.

"Are you done with being a kid and ignoring me ?!"

"Sorry, I didn't know you were here, the music was loud and I was focused on running"

"Yeah sure whatever" I mumble. "Anyway, we need to -"

"-I don't want to talk about it" he cuts me off, sharply.

"Jeez, Harry, just hear me out !"

"Fine, but hurry up, I have better stuff to do"

I roll my eyes and take a deep breath, trying not to seem pissed off by his childish behavior.

"Since we kissed the other night, Louis and I were feeling a little bit...embarrassed towards each other. It was starting to ruin our friendship."

"I saw that" he snaps, looking away as if he didn't care, but I know him better.

"Just listen to me ok ?" I wait for him to look at me again to continue. "So earlier, after you got a bit mad when we were in Sarah's kitchen, we decided it was time for us to solve whatever was going on between us. So we talked and we both realised we felt the same way -"

"-Great. Is that the part you both realised you had feelings for each other and then you kissed and then lived happily ever after and blah blah blah ? 'Cause I really don't want to hear that crap"

"Will you shut up and let me finish ?" I snap, getting more and more annoyed by his attitude.

He sighs and gives me an apologetically look before I continue.
