Together [Sequel to Love Actually]

Chapter 7

               I woke up the next morning freezing cold. I had no blanket, and no one was even near me. I turned over to see Harry and Niall tangled up in the blankets, and holding each other. Niall’s head was rested on Harry’s chest, and Harry had his arms wrapped around Niall. Niall has his arms draped over Harry’s stomach, and they looked so adorable.

               I slowly got out of bed, and Harry began to wake up. He looked down at Niall.

“Oh God.” Harry mumbled.

               I laughed, and continued to leave the room.

“No wait.” Harry said.

               I stopped and turned to face him.

“Just let me get out of bed, I’ll take you out for breakfast, before we have to hit the road.” Harry said.

“Okay.” I answered with a smile.

               Harry slowly untangled himself from Niall, trying not to wake him. He failed.

“We snuggled all night didn’t we?” Niall said with a laugh.

“Yeah man.” Harry answered laughing.

               Niall shook his head laughing.

“We’re going to go for breakfast, want to come?” Harry asked.

“Nah, you need your time just the two of you. I’m going to go back to sleep. Wake me when it’s time to leave.” Niall said burying himself back in the covers.

“Alright.” Harry responded, and ushered me out of the room.

               We got dressed, and headed out. Brian was standing in the lobby, overseeing the bus getting packed.

“Can I talk to you?” Brian said to me.

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” I answered quietly.

“It’ll only be a second.” Brian said.

               I looked at Harry, who looked skeptical on the topic.

“I’ll be right back.” I said finally, leading Brian away.

               We walked across the lobby, and sat down on the couches.

“What?” I asked.

“I want to apologize for being so rude to you and Harry lately.” Brian said.

“Why? Because I almost died?” I asked tartly.

“Well that and…” Brian trailed off.

“I know that you have a little crush on me or whatever, but you’re twenty five, and I’m seventeen. You’re a jerk, and I’m in love with my boyfriend. We could have been friends, but you ruined that now didn’t you? You just had to try to break me and Harry up didn’t you?” I said.

“I just needed you for myself.” He answered quietly.

“Did you ever think about what that would do to me? If you cared about me at all you would have let me be happy. You were being selfish, and I don’t like selfish people.” I said.

“I’m sorry.” Was all Brian could say.

“Well, sorry doesn’t fix everything now does it?” I questioned.

“I guess not.” Brian replied.

“We done here?” I asked.

               Brian nodded, and I stood and walked back to Harry.
