Way Of Life - H.S & N.H

Free Pass & The Riff Raff

Sienna gurgled away in her high chair as Heather and Shay sat eating lunch.

They managed to get a booth seat which is always a winner. Shay sat on one side while Heather sat opposite. Sienna sat at the side of either of them.

In between mouthfuls of food they caught each other up on events and any gossip. Including the fact that Shay and Harry were taking a trip back up to Cheshire.

"If you had to choose a free pass, someone who you are allowed to sleep with and Harry can't get mad, who would it be?"

Shay choked on her drink.

"Where did that come from?!" She managed to reply through coughs.

"I saw someone mention it on Twitter this morning. Was just curious who you'd pick? You okay?" Heather chuckled.

"Yeah... jeez I almost died just then. Uhhm..."

Shay pondered who she would choose. She had it pretty good with Harry but couldn't help but wonder if the what ifs. What if life was swapped around.

"Would it be weird if I said Ni?" Shay mumbled. She worried what Heather might say.

Heather began to laugh.

"That's so funny because I was gonna say Harry for mine!"

Both girls continued to laugh until Heather spoke again.

"Actually I'd probably say Gordon Ramsay in truth."

"Still? You really like him don't you?" Shay smirked before taking another sip of her drink. She also leant over with the other hand to give Sienna a piece of bread to eat.

"I don't know what it is. He's just got something."

"I hope you're talking about me?" Niall's voice chimed as he made his way over to the table.

He stopped behind Sienna. Waiting for her to turn and look up at him.

"Niwul! Niwul!" She babbled excitedly.

"Hey little one!" He brushed his hand over her head soothingly.

"Hey Shay."

Shay got up from her seat to give him a hug.

"Hey you." Niall spoke to Heather now.

"Hey." She giggled as she scooted over for him to sit down. Just as he did, he stole some of Heather's food from her fork.

"Oi!" She shoved him.

"What?" He mumbled through a mouthful.

Shay laughed at the two of them before answering his earlier question.

"We we're talking about you actually. I was just saying how you'd be my free pass and Harry wouldn't be able to say anything about it."

"Is that so? Knew you fancied me!" Niall pointed a finger towards her teasingly.

"Can you blame me?" Shay blushed.

"Nah I am hot stuff. However, even if free passes were a thing, I'm sure Harry would murder me if I even thought about it. We know he's of the jealous kind. He even wrote lyrics about it. And anyway, you're like a sister to me." Niall confessed.

"Is that you trying to say you don't fancy me? You could just say that Ni instead of waffling on forever." Shay whined.

"Shay... you are gorgeous. But you're someone else's gorgeous. I've got mine right here." He wrapped an arm around Heather.

Heather pretended to vomit before quickly smiling when Niall looked at her face.

"I saw that!" He cried.
