"Um a pocket knife, matches and a playboy" the room erupts with laughter as we all sit in various places around the music room playing desert island

"Honestly? Your stranded on an island and your bringing a dirty magazine with you?" Harry asks Louis having recovered from the fit of laughter

"Yeah of course! Gotta have something for entertainment if I'm gonna be stranded on an island alone" he shrugs casually

I laugh lightly shaking my head looking down at the guitar rested in my lap as I strum the new chord quietly trying to perfect it.

"What about you Ni?" Liam asks

"You three" I say as if it's not obvious

"Awwe Nialler getting all sentimental" Louis says sarcastically

I roll my eyes chuckling "no you guys are bringing all your survival equipment and I'm brining you three so you can do everything for me"

They all laugh "logical" Harry says laughing

"So Louis hows the bird?" Liam asks grinning

"Her names Eleanor and we're good" he smirks looking down

"What's that suppose to mean; 'good' " Liam pushes grinning

He shrugs "we're good" he repeats smiling

"What about you Niall?" Liam asks

I look up from my guitar "what about me?"

"Got a girlfriend?" He asks grinning at me deviously

I roll my eyes "no"

"Boyfriend?"

"No!" I laugh shaking my head

"Have you ever had a girlfriend?" Louis asks

I glare at him "What's that suppose to mean?"

"Oh nothing I just realized we never talked about it before! So have you?" He pushes me the same stupid smirk on his face

"Umm" I pause "no" I shake my head

"You hesitated though?" Harry says

I turn my head to him "you too? Seriously?" Even Harry is grilling me about this!?

"What?" He says innocently

I sigh "it was complicated" is all I say

"Who was she?"

"Her name was Sabrina" I put down my guitar knowing now that we opened this up I wouldn't get back to playing for a while

"What happened?" Harry asks

"We were in a few group homes together but never got much time together cause IFCA kept moving me and her from home to home so when we ended up together the third time we both tried to stay there. We didn't try to run away or get in trouble but after a week IFCA moved me for no reason." I sigh "we never made anything official but"

"But you both knew you were something more" Liam finishes for me

"Yeah" I nod picking back up my guitar "but whatever. It's just a girl. There'll be others"  I look down ignoring there annoying sympathetic looks
