Our Memories Together 2

3.5

"Hads!" Ethan and Harry toppled over Hadiyeh as she opened the door of the Ibiza mansion, she, JJ and Jannah had arrived at the mansion a few hours before the boys to prepare everything for her birthday. 

"Nice to see you too." She beamed childishly from underneath them.

"I need to talk to you later about something," Ethan whispered in her ear as they pulled away from the hug.

"Always available." She grinned.

"Happy birthday!" Harry cheered handing Hadiyeh a pink and blue bag before moving to awe at the massive house that JJ had rented out.

"How much did he spend on this thing?" 

"He won't tell me," She chuckled. 

~~~

An hour later, Hadiyeh and Ethan were in the kitchen, Ethan busy editing his main channel video. 

"Behz?" 

"Hm?"

"What did you want to talk about?"

"Gimme a minute." He shut down his laptop before swivelling on the counter stools to face her, she was busy making herself and the boys smoothies.

"So Behzinga, talk to me." She grinned, what was there not to smile about, her life was going perfectly, she and JJ had made up, Jannah was making the healthy growth an infant her size should and she was on holiday with her friends and loving husband, what was there not to love about the life she was living?

"I think I might have fallen in love."

"First sight?"

"Tinder."

"Oh, wow." Hadiyeh's eyes raised in surprise, she was never a believer in dating apps, but maybe they actually work, "You met her?"

Just as Ethan was about to answer Jannah's cries were heard from behind him. They had put Jannah's carrier on top of the dining table not wanting to disturb the sleepy child. 

"Here," Hadiyeh slid the milk bottle over to Ethan who took it with wide eyes.

"Don't look at me like that, go feed her." Hadiyeh blatantly raised her eyebrows at him, "Move."

Ethan nodded nervously shifting to go get Jannah. 

"Hads, do you know where my glass-"

"On the dining table," Hadiyeh replied before JJ had finished his sentence, "I told you to pick up earlier,"

"Yes, I know, I'm sorry." He grinned boyishly at her, flashing his pearly whites at her. He picked up his sunglasses and gave a kiss to Jannah who was being held by Ethan, happily drinking her milk from the bottle.

"Thanks, bro." JJ gave Ethan one of those bro-nods before moving to behind the counter where Hadiyeh was sat sipping on her smoothie. 

"Hey gorgeous," He kissed her cheek gently, receiving a mouthy one in return.

"Where are you going?" She asked JJ who was standing between her legs a wide smile on his lips. 

"Harry lost FIFA so he owes us all drinks, we're going out to buy them, so we'll have drinks for when the lads finally arrive." He beamed as Hadiyeh held his hips, swaying him gently.

"Go on, take care," She kissed him softly. 

"Will do, love you, bye." He took Hadiyeh's smoothie out of her hand, drinking it on the way to the front door.

"Oi!" She laughed playfully. 

"It tastes great!" He yelled back from the other side of the house earing a laugh from Hadiyeh in return.

"Hads?" 

"Yeah?" She turned back to Ethan who had been studying the couple in silence for the past few minutes as he fed Jannah.

"How did you know JJ was the one, you could have fallen for any of us, why JJ?" 

She shrugged.

"Something just seemed to click but not in the same way me and the rest of you did, we had been  friends for too long for me to see any of you as anything more than that, but because JJ and I had absolutely hated each other after getting to know each other, I don't know what happened but we just fell in love I guess?" 

"So how do I know Faith is the one?" 

"Her name's Faith?" 

He nodded. 

"We met on Tinder and talked for a while, then when my mum was in the hospital, it turned out she was the nurse for that ward and we kept meeting up after her shift and stuff." He said poking Jannah's nose, the child was now fed and happily giggling in his arms, "Behz, yeah, say behz,"

"So what is there to discuss with me, you've literally been put on each other's path, there is defiantly something there, go for it." She stated, taking Jannah back into her arms, allowing him to take the smoothie from the countertop drinking from it. 

"I wanted to ask about how I should ask her out." 

"You've invited her right?" Hadiyeh turned to him. 

"Yeah, but just as friends." 

"Well, then I don't know, what is she into?" 

"Horses," He replied, "her whole profile is pictures of her with horses, but a date to a horse farm isn't exactly romantic, is it Hads?"

"She's into animals and nature, take her on a picnic date, she's from around Blackpool, isn't she? Go on a beach picnic date," Hadiyeh suggests, sitting Jannah up on the counter as she crawls back onto Ethan's lap. 

"Biz!" The child claps her hands happily plopping herself down onto Ethan's lap.

"Did she just say Behz?" Ethan turns to Hadiyeh in shock. 

"Biz!" Janah repeated beaming happily. 

"She said Behz!" Ethan cheered taking Jannah into his arms lifting her.
