Faith's POV

I try and swallow down the rest of my drink as I hear the screeching voice pouring out of the speakers. The sound hurting my ears and making me grimace, but making me laugh nonetheless. I set my now empty glass down on the table and fall back into the arms of Harry.

He is uncontrollably laughing at the sight of Eddie drunkenly screaming the lyrics to 'Jingle Bells' through the bars karaoke system.

It was Eddie's idea to go out downtown tonight. The old bar that was up and running in High School has grown even more popular over the years. I have only been to this bar a hand full of times but Harry said him and Eddie come every week.

Tonight for Karaoke it is Harry, myself, Eddie, Anna, and Bailey. No Maddie tonight- thank God. Apparently Maddie regularly joins on nights like this, but Anna let it slip that she decided to ditch on everyone tonight. Harry just rolled his eyes at the news, but I smiled smugly to myself.

Maddie probably only ever went for Harry, and now that he has no interest in her she didn't want to be involved.

I don't have a problem with Maddie. She could have joined us if she wanted to. What I did have a problem with was her purposely trying to make me upset over Harry. Her sick and twisted mind game definitely worked but everything was good now. Harry and I were good.

Harry and I were great.

Harry and I sit side by side in the booth so close that our thighs are touching. His arm is thrown up onto the top of the booth and around me. His fingers lightly twirling some strands of my hair, while his other hand holds his half drank beer.

The sound of his laugh makes me smile as I glance up at him, slightly turning my head to rest my chin against his shoulder. His eyes are scrunched up due to his smile and his dimples are on full display. His bunny teeth popping out as he laughs loudly.

The sight of him so relaxed and enjoying himself makes my heart warm. I want him to always feel like this. I want him to always feel happy, carefree, and relaxed.

By the time Eddie ends the song and the room breaks out into thunderous claps and yells from the drunk patrons, Harry is now looking down at me with a warm smile.

"That was awful" I say through a giggle causing Harry to laugh even harder.

He ducks his head down to place a kiss to my forehead before pulling back with a smirk. "Just wait until he starts singing Carol of the bells. Your ears definitely might bleed."

I laugh at his words and he smiles down at me.

Warm feelings over take my body as I quickly lean up and press a quick kiss to his cheek right over the indent of his dimple. I feel Harry intake a sharp breath over the feeling of my lips. I am quick to pull back just enough to look him into his eyes.

"Thank you for brining me out tonight." I whisper into the space between our lips.

"Of course, baby." He says back. "I'll take you anywhere."

Soft smiles stay on our lips as we stare into each others eyes. My hand now resting firmly on his chest as his arm drops down off the top of the booth to hold me around my waist. My body now turned so my full chest rests into his side. We both are leaning on each other for warmth, and just for the desire to be close.

I watch as Harry's eyes flicker down to my lips for a quick glance. His tongue sneaks out past his lips to wet his own as he stares. My lips part in anticipation of what's to come.

But we are soon pulling back from the close proximity as Eddie bounds his way up to the table.

"Take that bitches!" He yells out. "I had a standing ovation."
