They Don't Know About Us

Nobody Loves You, Baby The Way I Do - Chapter 89

*CHLOE'S POV*

It was kind of embarrassing, being the last "couple" to put up our tent. I spent most of the time laughing at Harry as he awkwardly fumbled around inside of the tent, laying the bottom sheet down. And the other half, flustered over the instructions-which really didn't help at all. Even Though Harry gave me a lot of time to actually put up the tent, with a sulk on, I couldn't help but not glance in Louis' direction. All I could think about was what he said. I knew the answer, it was just putting it to him without seriously hurting him that was bothering me. 

Finally, after what seemed too many long hours constructing and re-constructing the tent, we finished. By then, it was almost dark. The sun hid behind the shelter of the large Oak and Pine trees, as night crept ever closer. Soon, a fire was made; (mostly leaving Louis to do most of the heavy lifting.) We all gathered around the burning embers, as they danced up into the night sky. Harry sat, comphortably besides me, keeping his arm firmly over my shoulder, pulling me close. I smiled: glancing around the small circle we all made. It was nice to see us all laughing, actually enjoying the time we have together. Even now, I can see the old, crazy personalities of One Direction, slowly emerging again. Louis, always making the sarcastic one-liners, Niall and Harry uplifting and making the jokes,then Liam and Zayn, adding their own crazy twist. Put all of that together with mine, Paige's, Shelby's and Ellie's personalities, you would think anarchy and chaos would be caused. But it wasn't. It was quiet, slightly awkward. I could almost hear everyone's brains wiring in their thought processes.. But a lot has happened to us. And was going to take time to recover. 

I couldn't stand the silence, almost any longer. Rising up and clapping my hands together like some enthusiastic fitness coach, I spurred everyone into action. "Right guys, time to actually socialise with each other. How about a Ghost hunt?" It was the first thing that came into my head. And usually, I would freak at even the thought of anything Ghost related. But with everyone together, and Harry by my side, what's the worst that can happen?

So we all set off, huddled together, with flashlights flicking around. "Are you sure there's no foxes in this forest?" Liam called out, we all shook her heads. "Mate." Louis responded, laughing. "What's a fox gonna do? Lick you to death?" We all chuckled. "No, im serious! Those furry things have a hell of a bite.." Shelby was almost in fits, linking arms with Liam. "We're meant to be scared by Ghosts, not foxes!" As I continued walking, I noticed that Harry had suddenly disappeared. Confusingly looking around, I quickly appeared by Paige's side. "Where's Harry gone?" Everyone, confusedly looked around. "No sign of him here!" Shelby called. "It's okay, Clo. He probably went back to camp to get something!" Biting my lip, I nodded. Suddenly, twigs snapped somewhere outside of our little group, Louis faked screamed, and Zayn, in is exaggerated "bradford bad boi" accent "Oh noes! What was that?" We all laughed, yet secretly huddled together. I found myself squished behind Paige and Niall. A sudden tap of my shoulder makes me squeal. "Relax!" Louis chuckles beside me, Elllie soon beside him. I glare at him, smirking and slapping his arm. "You made me jump!" "Well it was your idea to go Ghost hunting, genious!" He mimicked my high-pitched voice. I smiled. Then lowered my tone. "I need to talk to you.. When you have a moment alone?" He nodded, smiling slightly. But before he could reply, a sudden large sound emerged. "RAAAAAH!" Before I could find out who exactly it was, we all screamed, gripping each others' arms, even Paige squealed, almost jumping into Niall's arms. The hooded figure who made the noise was almost in fits of laughter on the floor. I could recognise that laugh anywhere. "Harry!" Shrieking, I quickly lifted up what seemed to be a bed cover, to reveal Harry almost in tears. All the others sighed with relief. "I thought i'd add some.. Spice to this dull Ghost hunt!" I sighed, shaking my head as he stood up, slapping him on the arm. He stuck his bottom lip out, rubbing his arm. "Owe.. What was that for?" "You know what." Annoyed, I started walking back to the others, who began to make their way back to camp. "I'm going to pay for this later, aren't I?" Harry's voice was suddenly right behind me, as he wrapped his arms around me and pecking my cheek. Smiling, I squirmed out of his hold. "Yep!"
