One Wish
Chapter 11
Liam's POV
We have here for a month and somehow managed to keep the fans away. The boys and I are really beginning to like it here. Niall especially. Him and Calie are so cute together, but I'm not gonna lie I am seriously jealous... well I was at first. When I first saw Calie hop up in the back of the ambulance I was amazed by her beauty. I know that sounds super cheesy but it's true, she is one of the most beautiful and genuine girl I have ever met. Niall is a lucky guy, bloody hell any guy who has ever caught her eye is lucky. I just wish it was me. Then again I am glad I won't have to deal with the heartbreak when we have to leave. Oh.... no... Niall won't be able to handle the heart break. He is gonna be so hurt! I don't even want to imagine how sad he will be... or how sad Calie will be. This is awful! Why did I let this happen? I should have warned Niall, I should have told him to stay away, to not fall for her. I'm an awful friend, I will just really have to be there for him when we leave and Calie can't come with us. I mean she is only 17, well almost 18 but still she can't travel the world with us, what would happen if her and Niall didn't work out. I need to stop thinking about it. I am just getting myself all worked up. We will still be here for the next month and a half.
"Hey Liam." I heard Niall's cheeky Irish voice chime.
"Hey Niall, where's Calie?" I asked considering they were normally always together.
"You know we don't have to go everywhere together." Niall laughed. "She had to pee." Niall said after a moment of silence. I laughed at the thought the only reason she hadn't come in the room with him is because she had to go to the restroom. I watched as Niall walked into the closet, when he came out he had hold of his guitar that he got off the bus after the crash.
"What are you doing mate?" I was curious.
"I was just going to play the ole guitar." He patted the butt of the guitar and smiled at me. I watched him as he strode off with a goofy grin on his face.
Niall's POV
I wonder what Liam's deal is he seemed a little on the edge when I walked in and grabbed my guitar. Maybe he is just missing home or nervous about the postponed concert dates. Oh well, he shouldn't worry, he is going to age himself with how much worrying he does.
I had walked out back and sat down on the hammock. I began to sway the hammock and strum a few cords. I didn't really know what I was playing until I heard a sweet soft voice chime in;
"Come on skinny love just last the year, pour a little salt we were never here." I stopped strumming and turned around to see my angel. The way the sun shown down through the leaves and left light patterned on her beautiful face. Her blue eyes shown bright in the golden glow, and her long blonde hair fell in curls. I swear I have never seen anything as beautiful as what I was seeing right there in that moment. I smiled at the thought that this wonderful girl smiled for me. I quickly grabbed my phone out of my pocket to capture the moment in time that I realized that I was blessed with her and that I would do whatever it took to keep her. She smiled and looked at the ground when she realized I was taking a picture of her. She was perfect and she was mine. I wanted to let the world know it, but I couldn't not yet. " Skinny Love, by Bon Iver." I heard her say in a shy tone with a giggle. "I love that song." she said while moving to sit with me on the hammock.
"Me too," I was still amazed at the sight of Calie.
"What made you play that song?" Calie asked me with curiosity lingering in her voice.
"I don't know." I answered honestly. "I was just playing, I didn't really know what I was playing until I heard you sing." I watched Calie begin to blush out of embarrassment. Her cheeks tented a darker shade of read when I said; "You know, your really good?"
"Nah, I'm not any good. I'll just leave the singing up to the professionals. Like you." She winked at me now it was my turn to blush. I began to strum the guitar again this time I knew what I was playing.
"It's a little bit funny
this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money
but boy if I did
I'b buy a big house where
we both could live
If I was a sculpture
but then again no
a man who makes potions
in a traveling show
I know it's not much but
it's the best I can do
My gift in my song and
this ones for you
And you can tell everybody
this is your song
it may be quite simple but
now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
that I put down in words
How wonderful life is
while you're in the world"
I finished singing the words that were all so true about how I felt.I didn't right this song but it describes exactly how I feel. I laid the guitar against the tree that the hammock was attached too, and turned to Calie. I really want her to know how crazy I really am about her. She means so much to me. She leaned in and placed a gentle kiss against my lips. This kiss was different than any kiss we shared before, there was so much passion without aggression. The sweetness of the kiss made my heart drift into the sky above us. I never swooned over anyone but now I can't stop. This girl drove me crazy and I enjoyed the feeling. I didn't believe in this feeling, I never imagined it to be true. And even if it did exist I never thought I would be able to feel it. She pulled away from my lips.
"That was beautiful." She said in a whisper. Her lips brushed against my cheek as she made her way to my ear. "Your Song by John Elton." She whispered into my ear. I hoped she had never hear the song before but she obviously knew it. She kissed my cheek before pulling back and facing my once more. I know my cheeks had to be shining bright red. Her lips formed a smile and she spoke quietly again; "How did you know?" her voice cracked on the last word. I didn't know what she was talking about but I was intrigued. "That was my aunts favorite song, she sang it to me when I was sad, it was the first song I learned how to sing while playing the guitar. But I have to say that was the most beautiful version I have ever heard." I pulled her in close to me as she wiped a few tears that fell from her eyes. I rocked the hammock back and forth. The wind blew slightly making the leaves rustle above us and the wind chimes hanging from her back porch. The soft noises and the swinging of the hammock put Calie to sleep laying on my chest. I watched my angel as she dreamed. Behind the lids of her eyes I could tell images danced. It didn't take long for me to fall into a slumber. Everything about this felt right, her laying with me, the shade from the trees and the breeze that rocked us from side to side. I could spend forever with this girl in my arms.
