Chapter 11:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been here in London for about a week now, Liam still doesn't know about my tattoo or piercing. I finally got to show Louis and Zayn them. Louis was absolutely excited for me and was saying how cute they are. Zayn on the other hand was very questionable about them. He was asking me the same question everyone else has asked, "Did you tell Liam?". Of course I will, but I just never got around to it. Zayn finally looked passed the whole "Liam" thing and he likes them quite a bit. Apparently we're tattoo buddies now.
Then Niall. I still haven't talked to him about the incident the first night I came here. Talking to another was lessened, which was new for us because we would talk every night and day. It pains me when he comes over to play Fifa with Liam. The sadness on his face when his eyes find mine. Sometimes it's too much, I have to excuse myself from the room. Liam has questioned me about it and I told him it was nothing.
Then Harry. He has been extremely close to me this past week. Since I basically talked to Niall about everything, but now we are distant, Harry was there with a cup of tea and a shoulder to lie on. Of course I told him about what happened with me and Niall, he squeezed it out if me. He was noticing the awkward and uneasiness between me and Niall, and I'm surprised nobody else caught on.
I sigh quietly as I straighten one last strip of hair as it falls past my shoulder. My phone buzzes from on the vanity beside me. I set down the straighter and pick it up, a text message from Eleanor pops up on the screen,
El<3
'Hey babe just texting you and letting you know I'm about 5 minutes away from Liam's! Omg girls day out. Soo excited!! See you in a bit xx'
I giggle at her quirkiness and that's something I've always loved about her.
'Alright love I'll be waiting!!'
I send the text and I grab my shoulder bag that hung off the closet door, slipping it over my shoulder. I examine my reflection, straightening my over sized peach sweater that hung midway on my thighs. I pick a few fuzzy off my black legging and slip grey Uggs on, stopping at the corner of my vanity mirror grabbing an owl necklace and slipping it over my head. One last look and I'm out the bedroom door.
I was greeted by Liam in the living room with a kiss on the forehead, "Well don't you look dapper! Where you headin'?" he scooches over a bit on the couch, making room for me. I giggle and sit down facing him, bringing my legs up and crossing them, he mimics my movement.
"El is coming in a bit to pick me up and we're meeting Dani and Perrie at Starbucks, then head out to the shops." I gush, Liam smiles,
"Well I'm glad you're going out with the girls and getting out of the house."
The door bell ringing took our attention to the door. I look back at Liam and he engulfs me into a hug,
"Have fun, but not too much fun." he giggles into my neck. We part and I give him a smile while getting up from the couch,
"Don't worry," I start making my way over to the foyer, "I'll keep an eye on your Dani." I wink at him and pink rushes across his cheek bone as he coughs awkwardly. I burst out laughing and head to the door, opening it.
"Oh my god Claire!" she brings me into a bone crushing hug and I giggle. I step back looking at her, she was wearing a cream long sleeve flowy top with black skinny jeans, silver sparkly TOMS hug her feet. Her makeup was simple but perfect, her hair cascades down her shoulder in ringlets.
"You look absolutely incredible!" I gush. She slaps me on the arm playfully,
"Stop!." she puts a hand on her chest and a small smile inches across her glossed lips,
