I pull up to our favorite restaurant in town, Heavenly Aroma, and park in the nearest open spot.
Everyone jumps out of the car and we head inside to see that it isn't too busy. The host leads us to an empty booth and hands us all menus.
Me and the guys have been here several times, but I'm excited to bring Liam for the first time. I hope this isn't the last time I bring him either. Just like how the flower shop is his special place, the diner is ours and I don't mind sharing it.
The worst thing about this place is that the booths aren't meant for four buff football players. And now with Liam joining the mix, he is squished between Harry and me.
Niall and Shawn are sitting across from us and laugh at the hidden Liam between me and Harry's shoulders.
"What do you think I should get?" Liam asks quietly.
"I'm getting the steak and you can share some with me," I lean down to tell Liam.
"Hey, I want to share too! Sharing is caring" Niall cries out.
"I don't know what you guys are talking about," Shawn says. "Liam is sharing the Shrimp Scampi Pasta with me.”
"Or maybe Liam wants a burger and fries. Did you ever think of that?" Harry adds on.
"Okay, okay, okay," Liam chuckles. "You all can pick a fifth dish and we can share everything"
"Hmm...yeah, that's smart," Shawn says with a nod of approval.
Everyone else nods as well and we start looking at the menu together to see what we will get.
We unanimously decide to get the BBQ Chicken Pizza, and just in time because the waitress approaches our table.
She is still looking at her notepad by the time she finally reaches us, but the second she looks up, she stares at me.
It's definitely not a look of awe but more of a flirtatious look with a wink. I already know where this is going.
"What can I get you boys today" she says with her honey-sweet tone. She says it to the majority of the table, but she is still looking at me with a flirty smile and is now curling her finger around a piece of hair.
Harry starts telling the her everything we want and I feel Liam wrap his arms around my bicep. I look down at him in question, but he just gives me a shy smile as his cheeks go red. He leans his head on my shoulder, closing his eyes and hugging my arm tighter.
I look up at Niall and Shawn; they are doing nothing to hide their smirking.
Harry finishes the order and I look back at the waiteress. She looks between Liam and me with an annoyed expression but quickly switches back to a flirty one when she realizes I am looking at her.
