*Harry's POV*

We arrived back at the campfire. Everyone's heads shot up. Louis had a smirk on his face.

"Where did you two go off to?" His bright blue green eyes flicked between Claudia and I.

I looked down at Claudia who's cheeks were blossoming pink. She quickly looked down with a small smile on her face.

I chuckled. "We just went for a walk Lou."

He rolled his eyes with a grin plastered across his face.

I took Claudia's hand and flopped down onto a beanbag, pulling her onto my lap.

Claudia looked around. "Where's Niall and Maisy?" Perrie grinned.

"They went down to the lakeside together. They've been down there for a while." Everyone giggled.

We then heard crunching leaves. We all looked up to see Maisy and Niall walking towards us. My eyes immediately shot down to their hands and a grin found its way to my face.

Eleanor gasped and a beaming smile spread across her face. "They're holding hands!!!!" Everyone gasped.

Maisy shyly looked down and Niall tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear before leaving a lingering kiss on her cheek.

All the girls, 'awwwwed," and all the boys wolf whistled.

Niall wrapped his arm around Maisy's small waist. "Guys this is my beautiful girlfriend Maisy." He chuckled lightly at the end.

All the girls squealed. Dani piped up.

"Kiss!!! Kiss!!! Kiss!!!"

Niall smirked before turning around to face Maisy. She grinned before standing on her tip toes and joining her lips with Niall. There lips moved in sync for about 4 seconds before they broke apart.

We all cheered. Claudia jumped up along with the other girls to wrap Maisy in a group hug while the lads and I ran up to Niall doing the same.

Zayn sighed. "About time you got a girlfriend mate." Niall chuckled.

"I just knew she was the one." The lads all patted Niall's back.

"The girlfriend club is complete!!!" Yelled Eleanor. She is so random and hyper. No wonder her and Lou are such a matching, cute couple.

We all went back to our previous positions except this time Maisy was snuggled into Niall's chest as he stroked her strawberry blonde hair. I could tell Niall really liked her.

I wrapped my arm around Claudia pulling her into my side. She leaned her head into my shoulder.

Louis spoke up. "Who wants a drink?"

Niall and Zayn nodded. "Yip sure," Zayn said. He took two and tossed one over to Niall.

Liam rejected a drink wanting to stay healthy and surprisingly so did I.

Louis looked shocked that I'd said No.

Drinking alcohol brought back to many bad memories about when I was hurting from missing Claudia when she got kidnapped and drowning my emotions in alcohol. I never wanted the boys to know about that. It was just between Liam and me. Claudia didn't need to know that. It's over with and it's not important for her to know.

Eleanor rolled her eyes.

"Louis did you bring drinks for the girls or just beer?"

Louis chuckled before rummaging around in the chilly bin and pulled out a can of vodka and berry. He tossed it to Eleanor.

He looked to Dani. "You want one Dani?" She smiled and nodded.

"Yup, sure."

He tossed one to Dani.

"What about Perrie, Maisy and Claudia?"

Perrie shook her head. "No I'll just have a bottle of water."

Maisy nodded. "Yeah,sure, I guess I'll have one."

Then Louis looked at Claudia and raised his eyebrow.

Claudia sighed. "Um I don't really drink. Actually I've never really drank alcohol before."

Louis's jaw dropped then a smirk appeared on his face. "Well there's always a first for everything isn't there."

Claudia sighed. "Okay. I'll try one."

Louis chuckled and tossed a bottle of water to Perrie and a can of vodka and berry to Maisy and Claudia.

Claudia popped the tab on the can and sniffed it hesitantly. Maisy chuckled and took a small sip of hers.

Claudia brought the can to her lips and took a sip of the alcohol. She gulped it down and slightly crinkled her nose.

I chuckled. "You don't like it?" She shrugged.

"It's okay. But I think I'll just have one and that's it for me. I don't want to get wasted and get a massive hangover in the morning." Everyone chuckled.

She brought the can back to her lip and took small sips.

I kissed her cheek gently. I pressed my lips to her ear.

"I remember you telling me something in your bedroom today I recall you saying that we would do something, 'later.'" I chuckled.

She looked to me with a smirk. She came close to my face. "And you'll just have to wait until later."

I sighed. The little tease.
