another stupid hate song

Chapter 28

Today, they were free to do whatever they pleased. They were leaving in two days and James said they had a big thing planned for tomorrow, so they could enjoy their day.

Harry had left the room early, being woken up by the sun peeking through the window. He had been careful not to wake Louis up and he closed the curtains so he could sleep a tad longer. Yesterday night had been quite shitty for him and more sleep couldn't hurt.

Harry was still fucking mad about that. He couldn't believe people would do that, but his mum and sister always told him he had too much faith in people, and they might have been right about that.

It was still quite early, around 8 a.m, but while he strolled through the hallway to grab breakfast, he saw Eden going out from her room as well. She turned to him almost immediately, they had probably heard him walk toward them. They flashed him a smile and waved.

"Why're you up so already?" she asked

Harry smiled back as he reached her, walking by their side toward the lobby.

"Sun's bright today" he answered

"Yeah, that woke me up as well. Heading for breakfast?"

"Tup. I think I may be going downtown to eat, though. I'm kind of tired of the hotel food" he shrugged as they reached the lift.

Eden nodded next to him, pressing the elevator button.

"Do you mind if I come along? It sounds more tempting"

Harry nodded "You can come, I don't mind. You seem to be great company" he smiled at them

"Cool, thanks" she grinned back at him, stepping into the lift and pressing the button to go down to the reception.

They leave the hotel together, talking about what they liked so far about the trip as they walked along the beach.

"I had so much fun yesterday night. Georgia and I were dead drunk, sure, but we danced and sang and I felt so good. Couldn't dream of a better night"

"I'm glad someone had a good time yesterday at least" he said "How long have-"

Eden cut him off, frowning "What do you mean?"

Harry stuffed his hands in his pockets and shrugged, scrunching his nose. He wasn't really proud of having punched someone, but he was glad he punched that guy. He deserved it and it would have dawned upon him one day anyway.

"A guy had been a dick with Louis and it didn't end that well"

Their brows knitted tighter together "What happened?"

"He was being way too insistent and touchy, and Louis was drunk and clearly uncomfortable"

Her mouth turned downward and she sighed "I hate this kind of person. I'm happy you were here for him. We were way too caught up in whatever. we should have, I don't know, done something"

"Don't blame yourself"

"Yeah" she nodded, but she still looked like she blamed herself for not being with him.

Harry slung his arm around their shoulder and squeezed "Let's go in there" he said, going toward a little café "It seems good what they have in their plates. Look at those giant sausages!" he pointed to a plate

Eden let out a laugh next to him "I'm not really into sausages but whatever you like"

"I'll send Lou a pic and make a stupid joke about it. Best way to wake up"

"I highly doubt that but I can't stop you" she said, pushing the door open.

They sat around a table near the window and a waitress came to them a second later, smiling brightly.
