If only
Tears. Of joy, happiness, and strength.
She nods and I run to the table "Come on then. I'm hungry and I know Liam and Niall are too!"
So they come to the table and sit around it. I sit between Louis and Harry and Becca is between Niall and Liam.
We order and I'm sitting there in my outfit with my knees pulled up to my chest as I look through my twitter. Mindlessly listening to conversations. Then I see the tweet. It has a name for Louis's hair. I choke on an ice cube and look at Louis. Confirming the name. I start giggling and everyone looks at me.
Liam "And what is so funny?"
I gasp for air. "I'm looking at my twitter feed and and I come across this tweet. And it says Louis's hair, like the hair on his head, is named Shanie Bon Qui Qui the third." Louis makes that one face that always makes me laugh as Harry says "Mate! It fits!"
I wave my hand in front of face when Liam says "Zayn's would be Queen Ni ni!"
Zayn nods "Nobody but Perrie can touch my hair. It's like a rule!"
I laugh harder as Niall says "Liam's would be Tobey or something."
Becca "And yours would be Whitney!"
He looks at her like nope making me laugh me even harder. Louis "Harry's would be Lola!"
I look at him and he looks sad. "What's wrong!"
Harry "This beanie is hot!"
I giggle as I reach up and take it off his head. Putting it back on mine. I'm just chilling here, listening to the them talk when Liam says "I like them. We are keeping them."
Me and Becca look at each other and squeal. I didn't know that I was subconsciously leaning into Harry until he pulls my chair closer to him and sits at a slant so I can be more comfortable. I lean into him and he wraps his arms around me, but I jerk up as I roll through my twitter feed and see nothing but hate on me and Eleanor. I scroll through and that is literally all I see. My face drops. Harry is reading all of it over my shoulder. I lock my phone and chuck it at a booth across the room. I lean back into Harry and press my palms to my eyes. Harry wraps his arms tight around me as he says "They aren't true. What the tweets were saying. Your beautiful and funny and smart and caring and sweet and I like you. Please don't listen to them."
I pull him tighter around me and he happily obliges. Louis "Why did she just chuck her phone across the room?"
Harry looks at them and says "Twitter hate. About her and Eleanor."
Me "It's not even the hate about me that upsets me. It's the hate about Eleanor. Hating her is like hating puppies. It's so wrong and cruel and makes me want to hit you. Like why would you pick on the one person that makes the guy your loving from afar happy? Like fuck you, you stupid peasants."
I wrap Harry's arms around me "People like that make me want to sleep, for a long ass time!"
Zayn "Woah! Woah! Woah! What do you mean sleep?"
Me as Harry puts his hands on my arms "Sleep. Like crawl in my awesome ass bed and pull the covers over my head and sleep. Not end my life sleep. Shit. I am so much better and worth so much more than that. And especially after today. I wish someone would tell me to kill myself... Do it! I would totally call Louis. That would be so funny."
Louis "Pff... If someone told you to kill yourself and I was around. Hell no. I would totally put there ass on blast. YOU DO NOT tell my family to kill themselves."
Me and Harry are laughing and Becca says "Does that go for me too?"
Everyone "Absolutely!" She smiles and claps excitedly. I ask "What are we doing after this? I am not feeling going home after this!"
I set my feet in Louis's lap. He looks down and says "If you do not remove your feet from my lap, I'm moving seats."
I move my feet so fast I hit my knee. "Ow! Freaking cuss word cuss word cuss word. Louis!"
He tries to touch me "Nope! Don't touch me! You caused me pain. Do not touch me."
He looks so sad. I pull away from Harry and hug him "Lou. I'm kidding!" He wraps me in a tight hug. I lean back and he takes my beanie. turning and placing it on Eleanor's head. I turn to Harry and he is watching me and smiling. "Do you want to come over to my place after this? And Watch a movie or something?"
I smile at him "I would love to!"
Becca "Mica! I'm going to Nialls after this!"
The look I send Niall has him throwing up his hands. "I can keep my hands to myself!!!!!!!" I nod. "Good boy!"
Becca throws her spoon at me and I throw it back at her and accidentally hit Liam. I make a horrified face and he looks stunned. All he does is chuck it back at me, hitting Louis as he talks to Eleanor. I sputter as my drink tries to come out of my nose. Louis turns and looks at Liam. Liam is trying so hard not laugh. Louis picks up the spoon and throws it at Harry without batting an eye. It hits him in the side of the head and he turns around jumping a little. I'm dying by this point and Harry chucks the spoon at Niall as he talks with Becca. Niall looks at Harry with a hurt expression and just looks away.
Harry "Niall mate, I thought you threw it?"
Niall looks at him "Why would I throw a spoon at you?"
Harry "I don't know! I don't know which direction it came from!"
They are literally about to fight. Me as I stand between them "Stop! I threw it at you. Not expecting you to throw it at Niall. I'm sorry. Now you 2! Hug the hell out!"
They get up, walk around the table and hug. I nod. They sit back down and Harry wraps himself around me again. The food comes and Becca looks at Niall's plate over his shoulder. "What is that?" Pointing to the pasta dish.
Her pushes the plate towards her "It's an Irish pasta dish. It's really good. You can try some."
He smiles at her as she winds the pasta around the fork he handed her and pops it in her mouth. She chews as she hands him back his fork. "Oh! It's spicy. But its good. Really really good!"
Everyone is sitting around open mouthed. Niall "What? She's perfect!"
Becca blushes and everyone else goes aw!
I look at Harry's plate and see that he isn't even eating. He is looking at his twitter.
I grab his phone and lock it. Then I chuck it so its with mine. His eyes widen "What did you do that for?!?!"
Me "Because thats so rude! Your sitting at a table with your friends! Why do you need to tweet!"
Harry "You were doing it earlier?"
Me "Yeah, when the food wasn't here and I didn't want to have conversation!"
Harry "Are we really arguing about this?"
Me "You started it bub. Not me."
He nudges me and I laugh. So while at dinner we laugh and talk and nobody is texting or tweeting. They learned more about me and Becca and I'm pretty sure Niall just fell in love with my sister.
When dinner is over, the check comes and I try and get money out my pocket to pay my share. Louis doesn't like that.
He grabs my hand "What the hell are you doing?"
I look at him, freaked the fuck out "I'm was going to pay for my meal... Let go of my hand Lou."
He doesnt "Only if you put that money back in your pocket."
I slide it back in my pocket and he lets go of my hand "You don't pay around us. It's not allowed."
I look at him "But..."
Zayn "But nothing. The guys pay. It's called being a gentleman. It's what we do."
I put my hands in my lap "Can I at least pay you back? I'm not used to this."
There smiles soften "Well how about this," Liam says "You can pay us back by being care and happy like you just were..."
I smile happily "Well... um how about this. I do that and bake you guys something. That isnt cupcakes." I turn to Harry as I say the last part and he sticks his tongue out at me.
Niall leans towards me and whispers "You should make me cookies. Because I love you and you love me and we are best friends"
I giggle and say "Of course best friend!" He smiles like a little boy and turns to my sister "She is going to bake me cookies!!!!!"
Becca laughs "I heard. Wait, will you buy vanilla ice cream?"
I raise an eyebrow "Your a millionaire and your asking me to buy you ice cream?"
She nods happily. "Fine!" She bounces in her seat.
Harry leans into me "Can we make cupcakes at my house tonight?"
I turn to him and he smiles at me and I laugh. "Sure. We can make cupcakes at your house tonight."
So they come to the table and sit around it. I sit between Louis and Harry and Becca is between Niall and Liam.
