Chapter 3 ~ Somebody's Crushing

At midday, the guys have a break, and I get a chance to tell them how awesome it all is. We sit and sip soda, and Harry keeps looking at me and Liam gives him looks, but that doesn’t stop him. So I stop looking at him. Liam and I have a bit of a conversation. “It should have been this way to begin with” I smile and he smiles to. “I have to go” Harry says, and he marches off “Somebodies crushing” Yells Niall after him “Its no big one Harrys been crushing on you” Niall says turning to me “he’s having a tough time not telling you but I helped him out” he laughs, I sit In silence “He’s pushing it, I mean how dare he crush on you” Liam says turning back to me, I don’t give anything away. Should I mention he saw me to my granny flat last night, or he was there as I opened the door this morning. I know I shouldn’t so I don’t. I keep quiet and hushed up.

But it does affect me, Harry crushing on me, Niall corners me at the end of the day, “Hey MJ, I know what I said your thinking about, Harry told me he liked you, and there some stuff I can’t mention, it would stuff a lot of things up, maybe if you give some time to Harry he can tell you” he takes a breath “You see MJ, were not just a band we are best mates, we live in each other pockets, we keep secrets, we talk to one another, Harry said things he’s made me swear not to mention them again, and I won’t but if he does he does, alright, listen, if he see’s me speaking with you he’ll get suspicious, so yea got to go”  he rushes off, and as I stand there wondering Liam comes up.

“Everything alright?” he asks “did you see a ghost?” I shake myself out of it “No, I’m just fine, are we all ready to go?” “We sure are just looking for Niall, has he been lurking around?” I think carefully about my answer “Yea, he dashed past just forgot something I think” Liam nods “here he comes now, lets get out of here” I sit in between Harry and Liam. Which isn’t comfortable, Harry tries to give flirty smiles, while Liam is giving him looks, sour, keep your manners looks! Niall also suits glances at me, and I know what he’s thinking, will I slip up and tell Liam that he spoke to me. Louis and Zayn give me looks to, wondering looks. I try to ignore it.

When we get back, I find myself wandering around the beautiful gardens, admiring, the tress, and flowers. That’s until I hear someone behind me, I turn round to see Liam “Heya” he says he holds out two beautiful red roses “Oh Liam” I say taking them from him, I sniff them “there beautiful” “I thought you’d like them, listen MJ, I was wondering would you go out on a date with me, well not a date, would you come to tea with me?” I look at the roses more before answering. “Will it be just you and me?” I ask Liam nods “that be okay won’t it?” I nod “Yes, of course, I’d love to” “Oh beauty, I’ll get it organised and we will, head off” he dashes off, while I stand and hole the red roses stunned. A smile spreads across my face.

The date it seems like romantic, it doesn’t seem like something two friends would do. And the way Liam is looking in my eyes is making me blush, he leans in closer to me, I know what’s coming, he wants to kiss me, but I don’t want to kiss him back, we are friends. I don’t feel romantic towards Liam “Liam” I say softly “I’m tired can we go?” he blinks a few times, and then it sinks in, he pretends not to look hurt, and that’s make me half guilty, half feeling bad. He wraps an arm around me, and we leave. On the way, back he doesn’t say anything, so I don’t dare to either.

When we arrive back, the first person I notice is Harry, lurking around. I wonder why. Liam hugs me goodnight, and I know, I just know he wants me to kiss him, but I know I can’t, and something about how I pull back, tells Liam he shouldn’t try to kiss me. He lets me go, to the granny flat alone. Harry steps out, just as I reach the door. “Have a good date?” he asks, I hear bitter in his voice, I ignore it “It wasn’t a date” I simply state “Oh” is all he says “Goodnight Harry, see you in the morning” I open the door and step inside “wait” I turn around “will, you consider, going on a date with me sometime?” I look at him half stunned “I…I don’t think so” I stammer “I mean, no Harry” I say, Harry looks hurt, but I don’t feel bad, because I’m not meant to fall in love with him, I’m suppose to get to know Liam as a friend, and that’s it. My hearts closed to love. “Good night Harry” I close the door, and change for bed.
