Camp Popstar (A Niall Horan Fanfic)

25. Awkward Turtle...

🎶Well I was told to put my job in front of you, but it won't hold me like you do🎶

Chapter 25: Awkward Turtle... 🍀

(NIALLS POV)

I watched as my bandmates each approached Crystal, giving her a hug and in Harry's case, a quick peck on the cheek. I felt a swarm of jealousy in the pit of my stomach, even though I knew their actions were purely friendly. I wanted to be the only one who could hold her close. The only one who could love her. Yeah, dream on Niall. Dreams....thats as far as I could get when it came to a relationship with Crystal. Ugh. Thats it...i need to win her back. But when it comes to Crystal, all my plans disappear and all logic deserts me. Liam was the last one to hug her, leaving me. I walked towards Crystal awkwardly, my feet barely shuffling as I made my way towards her.

I gave her a weak smile before opening my arms and engulfing her in the biggest horan hug I could possibly offer. I felt her nuzzle her face into my shoulder as she snuggled closer to me. Slowly we broke apart, both of us blushing at our abnormally long hug. Harry wiggled his eyebrows at me, telling me without words that he was extremely supportive of both Crystal's and my actions. Rolling my eyes at him, my cheeks remained stubbornly red. Crystal coughed awkwardly before turning to an amused looking Louis.

"So...uh, Lou...do you know what the heck im supposed to do here?" she questioned. Louis shrugged, pointing quickly to Paul. Paul was standing in the doorway, grinning with the last of Crystal's luggage in hand.

"Crystal...youll be spending a day out with Harry tomorrow. Make sure to act loved up, we want all the fans to think your falling hard for Harry. Haz, the same goes for you." Paul lectured. Harry smirked cheekily, his eyes twinkling with mischief as he said,

"You want the fans to think im falling hard for myself? Im not as vain as Zayn." He smirked, drawing a fast "HA." from Louis, a smile from Liam and I, a chuckle from Crystal and a disapproving glare from Zayn.

"Im serious Harry. Tomorrow, your taking Crystal out on your second official fake date." he smiled, before disappearing from my room. Harry shrugged before disappearing, probably off to his bedroom to mark the calender or do god knows what. He could be doing anything...he IS Harry, after all. Zayn and Liam evacuated the room quickly, leaving only me, Crystal and Louis.

"Wellp...im off to pretend to do something useful, so Niall can win you back. K byyyyeeee...." Louis smiled at me innocently before running out of the kitchen. Oh yeah, way to make things awkward Louis. That left me alone in the room with a blushing Crystal. I need some supernatural help for me to find words to explain my feelings towards her at the moent. So when my explanation abandoned me...i did the next best thing.

"Um, want help carrying that luggage?" I asked hesitantly, gesturing towards her suitcase. Slowly, Crystal nodded, letting me pick up one of her bags and lead the way to Harry's guest room. Lets only hope that by the time I get there, ill have found the nerve to say something reasonably emotional to her. Hopefully involving the fact that I can barely sleep knowing shes not mine anymore.

Urg..stupid brain, you think to much.
