"Hey, Y/N? Oh. Sorry." Niall spoke, embarassed. Harry and I looked at each other, upset we were interrupted. "Hi Niall." I smiled at him. "We were just um hungry and we wanted to ask you if you were ready so we could, you know, get going." I smiled again at his nervousness. He felt bad for coming at that exact moment. "I think we're ready, aren't we Y/N?" Harry spoke up, placing his hand on the small of my back. I nodded, grabbing my purse from the bed and walking out with them. We met Esha in the living room, who waiting for us. She stood up and joined us. We had dinner at a restaurant and Niall suggested going to a pub for a drink. We all agreed and decided to go there walking to have some fresh air. I got in deep conversation with Esha about fashion. We were so immersed in our chat that we got startled when Niall came between us to tell us we had arrived. Just like at the restaurant, I sat between Esha and Harry. I decided to go get the drinks and Harry came along to help me. While we were waiting for our order, Harry and I stood at the bar, talking over the music. Suddenly, Harry's gaze moved somewhere else. He looked starstruck and looked back at me nervously. "Harry, what's wrong?" I said into his ear, trying to make my voice loud enough over the music. He shook his head in reply. "You sure?" I said, again. He nodded and pulled me closer. I looked over at the bar, where our drinks sat. We got two each and went back to our table. "Hey, Y/N I think I just saw-" "Here's your drink." Harry interrupted, glaring at Niall. "What were you saying Niall?" I asked. "Oh nothing, I think I just saw a girl that looks exactly like you." He chuckled. "Oh. That's funny. Maybe I'll look around later for her." I smiled. Harry let out a sigh. I looked at him. He looked back, smiling. "This place sure is busy." Esha said. "Yup." I knew something was wrong and Harry didn't want me to find out. "You okay?" Harry whispered in my ear, although our table was quieter. "Yes." I sighed. "I think I need to use the bathroom." Harry nodded and got out of the booth to let me pass. Just as I was about to walk away, a hand grabbed my arm. "I'll be waiting for you to come back." Harry whispered. I smiled and walked away. Once I got to the bathroom door, I turned around and saw Harry smiling at me. Had he been looking at me the whole time?
