Fix Me

18.

Greece.

My home.

My safe haven.

This is where I felt most comfortable. I could still speak the language fluently as could Zeva, and I've noticed the way Liam looks at her whenever she speaks to a native. It's a look full of affection, and adoration. And I've noticed the slight smile on Zeva's face because she obviously noticed Liam staring at her.

Zeva and I both thanked the lovely maid for straightening up the room while we were gone and I gave her a tip. We had just come back from taking a quick tour of the place, and all I wanted to do was lay down and take a nap. Jet lag was killer. I walked straight into my room, took a quick shower, changed, and then laid out on my bed. This hotel was absolutely amazing, and gorgeous, and so was the view. I was dying for the chance to get to go and walk around and go on the beach. And of course, spending time with Niall.

"Love?"

Speak of the devil. "You can come in."

Niall opened the door, and smiled when his eyes met mine. He came to lay beside me and closed his eyes. "This place is beautiful, Liv. I don't know how we'll be able to go back in a couple weeks."

"I know. Who knows when I'll be able to come back here again..."

"You can always stay here Liv."

I shook my head. "I can't afford it right now."

He nodded with understanding and opened his eyes to look at me. "Greece suits you."

"Yeah?"

"Yes. Your eyes are bluer, your cheeks are a little more pink, your skin a little darker, your hair is lighter. You're gorgeous."

My stomach was filled with butterflies. I don't know if he can ever tell the impact his words have on me, but it's huge. "No," I softly said.

"It's true. It's like you're finally home."

"You just want me to move here because it's closer to you," I said, trying my best to keep the blush away.

"Maybe, but you know I'm right."

I just shook my head and turned myself so I could look out the window. It wasn't long before I could feel Niall's arm drape over my waist and the desire for sleep take over.

I slowly made my way out of my bedroom the next morning, and stopped when I saw the amount of food in the kitchen and Niall standing behind it. His smile was huge as he looked up from the food and at me.

"Do you think we have enough food?" He laughed.

"Um, definitely." I laughed along with him and he handed me a plate. I started filling it with the pastries and fruit that was there, and then took a seat at the table. Niall followed soon after and sat next to me. "So what'd you want to do today?"

"Anything. You're the one that's familiar with the area."

"That's true. I'll think of something."

"Oh damn." I turned to see Zeva walking out of her bedroom hand in hand with Liam. "That sure is a lot of food. You know there's only four of us, right?" she asked Niall.

"Well..."

I looked at him, and he was smirking. "What?"

"Beautiful Livana!" My excitement level rose to a million as I heard the voice of the only person in the world that consistently calls me Livana.

"Ashton!" I shrieked and went to hug him.

"Hey now, let the girl see everyone," Luke said. I quickly let go of Ash and went down the line to hug all of them.

"I can't believe you're all here!" I looked at Niall, and he was smiling. "You are absolutely amazing."

"What kind of trip would this be if everyone wasn't here? Which reminds me, there should be about three more people coming."

"You didn't..."

"Love, he did."

My smile grew even more as Louis's arms went around me. Then Harry's, and then Zayn's. "Niall you are absolutely amazing."

He shrugged. "I just thought that it would be even better if we were all here."

I went over to him and wrapped my arms tightly around him. "Thank you, so much."

"You're welcome, babe."

My heart started racing just from the nickname, and I pulled away. "I should go get ready so we can go out and find something to do. I'll be right back."

Niall's POV

"So how's the 'best friend' thing going?" Louis asked me quietly.

I glanced ahead and saw that Liv was in the middle of a conversation with Luke, pointing out a building to him. "It's going okay.. I'm just waiting for the moment when I actually start sharing things about myself."

"I think she'll be in love with you by the end of this trip."

"That's the plan. For now though, I'm kind of just ignoring all of the plans I wanted to do and focusing on how happy she is."

Louis smiled and looked at her, and I did the same. "She really is amazing. I pray for a girl like that, and yet you manage to just bump into her."

I laughed. "Technically she ran into me."

Louis laughed and put a hand on my shoulder.

"You know what the crazy thing is?"

"What?"

"As soon as I looked into her eyes that day, I knew she was it for me. She was the girl I needed to be mine, and I would rather die than live without her."

"Wow, Niall. Is that really how you feel?"

"Yeah. Is that bad?"

"No, I just didn't know your feelings for her are that intense. You know, as her older brother, I have to warn you that if you hurt her, I'll kill you."

"As her brother?" I smirked.

"I'm just that close with her."

"I know. She was hooked on you the day she met you."

He shrugged, and smiled while looking at her. "I don't know man, I just really love her."

"Me too," I sighed.

"Liv, speak English please," Michael groaned.

"Oh calm down," Zeva laughed, her arm wrapped around Liam's waist. "All she said was that something smells good."

"I hate the both of you," Calum said, arms crossed.

I laughed. "She's right though, something does smell good."

"And I think I know what it is," she smirked and lead us farther into town and then into a small bakery. "ότι μυρίζει καλά , τι είναι αυτό?" she asked the hostess.

I glanced at Zeva. "That smells good, what is it?" She translated.

"αρτοσκευάσματα," he responded. "θέλετε να δοκιμάσετε μερικά?"

"Pastries, do you want to try some," she said. I didn't even have to ask that time.

"Oh so, not all of you can speak Greek, Livana?" he said with a smirk.

"No just me and- Xavier?"

Xavier?
