Road Trip

35- Hands Off The Nugs

"Niall, wake you Irish arse up!" Harry yelled, shaking Niall.
Groaning, Niall swatted his hand away. "Lemme alone."
"Niall wake the fuck up!"
"5 more minutes."
"TJ professed her love for you."
Niall shot straight up, eyes wide open. "WHAT?"
Harry smirked. "I knew that would work."
"You prick." Niall glared at him before rolling over. "I'm going back t sleep."
"No! She did admit that she liked you, I wasn't lying exactly." Harry said, grabbing his arm.
"Really?" Niall asked, eyes filled with hope.
Harry grinned. "Yeah mate, she fancies you quite a bit."
"That's great! I mean, I never figured a beautiful girl like her would fancy me but, wow." Niall thought for a moment. "How did you find out?"
Harry grinned. "They thought I was sleeping, but I was actually wide awake. I heard their entire conversation."
"Really? Did they mention you?"
"Yeah. TJ kept asking about whether Jessica has feelings for me and Jessica would keep denying it. But eventually, she admitted that she finds me attractive and thinks my next girlfriend will be the luckiest girl in the world and TJ said that that girl will be Jessica."
"Mate, that's great! That means she fancied you too!"
Harry grinned wryly. "I dunno. She didn't specifically say that she fancied me."
"Yeah but she didn't deny it either! This is good!" Niall exclaimed excitedly.
"But she just got out of a bad relationship. I doubt she wants to jump into another one. She's probably afraid." Harry said sadly.
"Well you could just be there for her the way you've been doing. I'm sure that she appreciates you being there. And that should definitely win you brownie points. And besides, TJ made it obvious that Jessica does like you. And TJ wouldn't be lying about that." Niall pointed out.
Harry gave Niall a small, hopeful smile. "I sure hope you're right."

****

"All that driving made me hungry." TJ complained.
Jessica rolled her eyes. "Everything makes you hungry. Eating makes you hungry!"
TJ laughed. "I can't help that I have a high metabolism. I need to eat every three hours. Don't hate."
"Hello, welcome to McDonald's. May I take your order?" The cashier droned monotonously.
"Yeah can I get a 20-piece McNugget, large fries, and a medium pink lemonade please?" TJ asked.
"Any sauces?" The lady asked.
"Yeah sweet and sour sauce please."
"Okay, that'll be $10.56."
"You sure that's enough food, TJ?" Jessica asked skeptically.
TJ shrugged. "If it's not, we're a have to stop again so I can eat more."
Jessica rolled her eyes. "Can I have a southern style chicken sandwich meal please?"
"Okay, that will be $6.49."

After the girls paid and received their food, they went to a window booth and sat down.
"So," TJ started before taking a bite of a nugget. "You and Harold would be cute together."
Jessica groaned. "Will you drop it already? I don't want Harry Styles."
"I'll drop it when you stop lying through your teeth. One does not simply state that they 'don't want Harry Styles.' He 50 shades of attractive."
Jessica glowered at her over her sandwich. "Shut up. You have Niall, so leave Harry alone."
TJ cackled. "Why does it matter to you anyway? It's not like you like him remember?"
"I don't like him." Jessica huffed.
"Mhmm." TJ mumbled grinning mischievously. "So you wouldn't get jealous or angry if say, another girl was flirting with him?"
"No, of course not. Why would I? It's not like I like him or anything." Jessica mumbled, looking anywhere but at TJ.
"Oh really?" TJ raised an eyebrow at her. "So you're telling me that you didn't get jealous when the girl at the mall back in Tennessee was flirting with Harry?"
"No, of course not. Why would I? It's not like I like him or anything." Jessica mumbled, eyes trained on her tray of half eaten food. "And besides, that hoe got arrested anyway. She couldn't get Harry if she tried." Jessica added smugly.
"And we all know that you don't have to try when it comes to Harry." TJ added slyly.
Jessica glared at TJ and just as she was about to fire back, the boys walked in.
"Well well well. We were just talking about you Harold! Please, do join us." TJ exclaimed.
Niall and Harry shared a look before Harry spoke up. "Funny, because we were just talking about the both of you ladies too."
Niall slid into the booth beside TJ. "Mmm, those nuggets look good." Niall said before reaching to grab one.
TJ grabbed his hand. "Last time someone tried to steal my nugs, I had to cut a bitch." She warned.
Niall laughed nervously. "Say no more. I think I rather get fresh ones for meself."
"TJ why didn't you just share?" Jessica scolded.
"I don't share very well, you know that." TJ pouted.
"It doesn't matter, you need to be more giving." Jessica said sternly.
Minutes later, Niall came back with a fresh batch of McNuggets.
"They didn't have anymore fries." Niall poured. He eyed TJ's before tentatively grabbing a few from her tray.
TJ immediately made a move to stop him before hesitating. She smiled at him and shrugged sheepishly. "Sorry, old habits die hard I guess." Instead, she grabbed some more off her tray and fed them to Niall.
"Aww." Harry cooed.
"Wow." Jessica said surprised. "Y'all just reached a whole new level in y'all's relationship. Things must be getting pretty serious."
TJ sighed. "Yeah, if only Hessica would become as serious as Tiall is, we would be making some real progress."
Jessica gasped and shot TJ a withering glare.
Harry coughed and turned a delicate shade of pink before smiling uncomfortably.
"You bitch." Jessica growled before dumping a packet of barbecue sauce all over the remainder of TJ's nuggets.
"No!" TJ gasped in horror.
Jessica smiled smugly. "That's what you get. Don't mess with me again."
TJ glowered at her. "You ruined perfectly good nuggets. I'm gonna kill you, you skinny bitch!"
"Oh shit." Jessica gasped in between peals of laughter. She quickly scrambled over Harry's lap and clambered into the booth behind them. TJ raced after her, climbing over the table and chased after Jessica. The two girls raced around the restaurant as TJ tried to catch Jessica.
"You're dead to me." TJ growled.
"You deserved it bitch." Jessica cackled as she dodged TJ between chairs. She faked left before scrambling right screeching, "Harold save me!" TJ made a desperate grab at her shirt, missing her by mere centimeters.
"Maybe we should break them up..." Harry said, trying to hide a smile.
Niall laughed. "Are you kidding? This is brilliant!"
"GET BACK HERE!" TJ roared as she chased Jessica around a table.
"Neverrrr!" Jessica yelled back.
"Excuse me," a large lady interjected. "are those two girls friends of yours?" She asked Niall and Harry. The boys nodded. "I'm going to need you all to immediately exit the building. And take them with you."
"Right. I'm sorry about that." Harry immediately apologized. "C'mon Niall, let's go break them apart." Harry slid out of the booth and headed toward TJ and Jessica.
"But I'm not even done with me nuggets!" Niall whined. He quickly shoved them into his mouth along with TJ's fries before hurrying after Harry.
"TJ please stop chasing Jessica around. She's sorry for ruining your nuggets." Harry pleaded.
"Hell no she's not sorry. The bitch did it on purpose." TJ glowered at Jessica as they circled each other.
"Please, we have to go. We've been asked to leave." Harry said desperately.
"Hey TJ, if you stop chasing her around, I'll give you the rest of my nuggets." Niall offered. TJ's head whipped around.
"Really?" She asked, licking her lips in anticipation. Niall nodded enthusiastically. He held out the nuggets to her.
TJ glanced back at Jessica before looking back at Niall and the nuggets. "Fine, I'll take the nuggets."
Jessica laughed before grabbing Harry's hand and dragging him out the restaurant. "You'll do anything for food."
TJ shot her a glare. "Shut up before I change my mind." She grumbled as she stuffed the nuggets in her mouth and followed a laughing Niall out the restaurant.
