I Wish.. by Jessica Pham (thriller novels to read txt) 📕

irritated, “What do you want?”

Bob raised an eyebrow at her language. He still wasn’t used to it, and Niall cussed 24/7. Bob looked inside the car and saw me, “Oh, hey Harry. You guys can come in.” He waved us off. Amber drove through the gates with a angry look on her face. Anger managements…

She sure gets mad a lot. She parked in front of the front door and got out. What is she doing?

She walked over to my window and bent over, “Well, are you coming or not?”

“Uh.. yeah.”

She rolled her eyes and walked to the door. The whole time, I was watching her butt sway. I blinked twice and opened the door. I walked over to her with my hands in my pockets. I knocked on the door and Mary, the maid, opened it. “Hey Harry.”

“Hey Mary!”

She blushed and backed away. She was about 19, and her mom and her works for us. She absolutely adores us. She has short blonde hair to her chin.

Amber walked in without looking around in awe. Most girls we bring home usually look around and complement our house. Guess that’s another thing about her that intrigued me. She was looking for something. I followed her around the house; she stopped in the kitchen and went to the fridge. She grabbed a whole handful of food, went to the living room, came back, and grabbed some more things. She didn’t even ask. I just stood there. Looks like we have a Niall #2.

When she came back for the fourth time, I stopped her. “Might as well carry the fridge to the living room.” I said sarcastically. “Yeah. We might as well.” She retorted.

She spun on her heels; her hair whipped around and hit my face.

She stalked over to the couch and plopped herself down. She grabbed a bag of Funyuns and started eating it. “Where’s the remote?” she muttered. I walked over to her and bent down beside her. I usually stick the remote between the cushions... Found it!

I picked it up and waved it in front of her face, “Looking for this?”

“Yes!” she said, trying to grab the remote out of my hands. “Ah-ah-ah!” I sang.

Her lips formed a straight line and she narrowed her eyes, “It’s on.”

With that, I ran off, with her hot on my heels. I stuck the remote in my pants, right where my crotch was. “You’re never gonna get it!” I yelled behind me. I turned around to face ahead, and nearly tripped over a stray suitcase if I hadn’t jumped. I landed on my feet and ran in the kitchen. “I shall get the remote! I swear to god!” Amber yelled from somewhere behind me.

I smirked, “Sure you are.”

I ran towards the island and ran to the other side. Amber ran up to the other side. Both of us were breathing heavily. She doesn’t give up, does she?

Lucky for her, I don’t either. I moved to the right and she mimicked me by moving to her left. Mary walked in the kitchen and widened her eyes, and quickly retreated. Amber looked behind her and smirked. She must’ve realized that she was blocking my path to freedom. “Got chu now, big boy.” Amber said triumphantly. She turned back to me and jumped to one side. I jumped the opposite side.

One of the doorways was unblocked, so I ran past her and through the door, she anticipated that move and ran towards me, with her arms outstretched. I just barely got past her when she grabbed my jacket and I had no choice but to let her rip it off of me, and throw it to the ground. I loved that jacket..

I sucked it up and ran upstairs. I ran into one of the spare bedrooms. I didn’t hear Amber. Where is she? Did she give up? She didn’t seem like the type who’d give up. I sighed and walked out of the room. I started walking down the hallway when all of a sudden, I’m being tackled down to the ground.

Chapter 10

(Harry's POV)

“AHH!” I yelled. She gave a triumphant ‘ha’ and sat on top of me… on my manhood to be more precise.
She looked down at me and smirked, “Hand the remote over.”
Now it was my turn to smirk. “You’re sitting on it.” Her eyes widened as she realized that I had stuck it in my pants. Luckily I didn’t stuff it in my boxers. “Give it to me!” she demanded. “Come and get it.” I said seductively. “No.”
“You know you wanna..”
She glared at me. “No, no I don’t.”
I laid my arms on the sides of her hips and whispered, “Reach in and get it.”
“Hell no!”
“Woah! What have you two been doing?” Louis yelled, loud enough for the whole house to hear. Amber turned and groaned, “No…first this bastard, now you? What’s next? Lane?” Just as she said that, Zayn walked up the stairs and yelled, “Vas Happenin', man?!” I was frozen in place. “It’s Zayn, love.” Louis corrected her. She scoffed, “I knew that.”
Amber got off of me and walked downstairs. “Woah man, I didn’t know you could get a girl that fast.” Zayn said. “There’s a lot you don’t know about me.” I said. “Nice man.” Louis complemented and then slapped my back. We all walked down the stairs to see Liam standing with his arms crossed. “Who is she?” he asked us. “I don’t know, ask Hazza.” Louis smirked. Everyone’s doing a lot of smirking today! Liam turned to me and raised his eyebrow, “Spit it out.”
“I was being mobbed by fans and I jumped inside her car by accident.” I explained.
“Next time, you should see who the driver is. They might be an even crazier fan who might rape you for all we know.” Liam scolded. There’s a reason everyone calls him Daddy Direction, and this is it. He worries about us, and he’s the smartest one out of all of us.
“Who ate my food?!” Niall screamed.
Amber patted her stomach shamelessly, “I did.”
Niall’s mouth dropped open. “Who the fuck is she? Is she one of those fans who’d make us sign their underwear?!” He got into a fighting position.
I threw back my head and laughed. “No Niall, she’s not.” He dropped his stance but kept an eye on her, in case she decided to take any more of his food. Which she did. She reached over, but Niall, scooted the food away from her, “No! I don't share!”
“Someone needs a happy meal.” She grumbled. Everyone laughed and sat down on the couch. Even Niall. After we all calmed down, Liam asked, “Hey, what’s your name?”
“Amber.”
“Why were you on top of Harry when we found you two?” Louis raised an eyebrow. He just had to ask that, didn't he? “Long story short, he took the remote and stuffed it in his pants.” Amber replied nonchalantly. “You would do that!” Zayn laughed. Everyone sat back and relaxed. “Uh, hey Hazza? Can I have the remote?” Niall asked awkwardly. I laughed and reached in my pants and took it out. Amber rolled her eyes and grabbed the remote out of my hands.
My mouth was wide open. “She touched the remote that was touching my crotch. So she basically just touched my crotch!!” I exclaimed.

*:~:*

She rolled her eyes and walked over to the table with the big bottle of hand sanitizer sitting on top of it.
She pumped a bunch on her hand and smeared it all over the remote. “Happy?” Amber asked sarcastically.
“Mmhm.” Was all I said.
She slumped on the couch and flipped through the channels. Everything was peacefully quiet. Everyone was doing their own thing. “There’s nothing on!” She wailed. We all flinched in surprise at her loudness.
“Let’s go to the movies!” She suggested eagerly. Everyone made a move to go to the door.
“NO.” I quickly declined. “What? Why?” Niall wondered.
“Because.. because.. we have our own movie room!” I said. “Yeah! We can watch the movies that we have here!” Liam agreed, after shooting me a questioning look.
“Ohhhh..kay?” Amber nodded suspiciously.
We all made our way up the stairs to the movie room. And of course- Amber didn’t remark on anything, she just plopped herself onto the couch.
Our movie room was quite big. When you walk through the door, you’re instantly met by a huge horseshoe couch that took up half of the space. Between the couch, was a medium table so people could put their food and drinks on it. (That was mostly Niall.) The rest of us used it as a foot rest.
Everyone but Liam and I sat down on the couch. Liam trotted over to the movie rack. I stayed where I was, in the doorway.
Amber sat in the corner, and Niall sat next to her right, while her left was unoccupied. Louis and Zayn were quietly chatting on the other side of the couch. My attention snapped to Amber and Niall as she let out a bark of laughter.
Her legs were across Niall’s lap. That caused a spark of jealousy to ignite in my body. Why can’t she do that with me?
Niall caught my eye and he smirked. He was messing with me! That little…
“What do you guys want to watch?” Liam asked.
“I don’t know, you choose!” Louis yelled. “SHH!” Zayn shushed louder than necessary.
“How about.. Horrible Bosses?” Liam asked. “Yeah! Ok!” Niall agreed.
He popped the CD in and settled on the couch. I snapped out of the jealous trance I was in and jumped over the couch and right next to Amber.
“So, how’s your night?” I asked, trying to start a conversation.
“Awesome, before you showed up.” She retorted. My mouth hung open. Way is she so mean to me?
“Ooooh, you got TOLD.” Niall guffawed.
“Shut up bichochos!” Louis yelled.
“SHH!” Zayn shushed loudly.
“NO. You shush!” Louis shot back. “Be quiet, both of you.” Liam scolded.
The movie was quite boring, to say the least. I didn’t even watch it. My attention was focused on the beautiful girl beside me.

*:~:*

As the credits rolled by, I yawned and stretched. The boys had already gone to bed, so it was just Amber and I.
She was asleep, lying peacefully on her side. I decided not to wake her, and picked her up, bridle style, and carried her to one of the guest rooms. I couldn’t help but admire her features.
She looked so young when she was asleep.
She grunted and slowly opened her eyes. I looked straight ahead and continued walking to my destination.
“Get off me, bro.” She mumbled. My grip on her tightened. Nope, not a chance.
She tried to wiggle out of my grip, but I held on even tighter to her.
“Let me go.” She grumbled. I ignored her.
“Mother of god, you best let go.” She warned.
Without warning, I dropped her. On the ground. “My, aren’t you a gentleman.” She grumbled, rubbing her butt as she got up. “You asked for it.” I retorted. She didn’t reply, but let me lead her to one of the rooms.
I opened the door and let it swing shut in her face as she was
