The Girl In The Crowd [One Direction: Liam Payne]

Café

-Charity's P.O.V-

"Look, there are the other lads." Danielle pointed to a table. And the other boys and the two girlfrind were indeed there. My eyes widened a bit, but I quickly went back to normal. Liam and I were still holding hands and I hope they will understand what we're going.

We have told Danielle we're dating and have been for a month, but didn't feel like telling the world, they didn't have to know.

We walked over there and I saw them all looking kinda pissed with Danielle.

"Hi, do you mind if we join you?" Danielle asked them and gestured to me, Liam, herself and Samuel. They looked at me in surprise.

"What is Ritty doing here?" Harry asked and I smiled.

"We decided on going on some kind of double date, since she was already at Liam's flat." Danielle explained and their eyes widened a bit.

"Yeah. Liam had just made me breakfast." I said and gave them the look that said just play with. They then plastered smile on their faces.

"Yeah, come on. We haven't ordered yet." Zayn said and we slid into the big booth. There wasn't more room when Liam had sat down, so I was left. Danielle was watching us like a hawk, so Liam smoothly moved me to his lap.

"So you knew about Liam and Charity?" Danielle asked everyone else and they looked kinda surprised by my name, but I nodded only for them to see.

"Yeah. We've hung out with Charity a lot. She's a total sweetheart." Eleanor said and leaned on Louis.

"So they have really been dating for a month?" Samuel asked and everyone nodded. Niall is a horrible liar, I hope she doesn't ask him anything.

"Yeah. They are really happy together." Harry lied very smoothly. I would've believed him if I didn't know.

"Mhm... We get along really well with Charity and Liam is always day dreaming about her." Louis smirked and I bit the inside of my cheek to not burst out laughing. I just smiled and turned to see a blushing Liam. Hahah, I like Louis now.

"Aww... Baby," I coo'ed and kissed his cheek, to make it believable. Liam only blushed more, I have to admit it was kinda cute. And it wasn't until the waitress came that I noticed where I was.

"Hello, I'm Lana, I'll be your waitress today. May I help you?" She then looked up and her eyes widened. She looked over them and then stopped on me and raised her eyebrows. I smoothly stood up and hugged her.

"Lana!" I said excitedly. "Don't blow my cover. I'm helping Liam out with with his ex. I promise to pay you back." I whispered to her, then pulled back and smiled. "Thanks for helping me and Li Li out last night." I winked for her to play along, then I sat down on Liam's lap again.

"Oh, yeah. What don't you do for your bestfriend and her.. Boyfriend?" She asked and played along perfectly. "Now may I take your drink orders?" We then told what we wanted to her and she left quickly.

"Your friend works at a café?" Danielle asked me with a cocky tone. I raised my eyebrow now.

"Yeah, what wrong with that? Someone has to work here to, you know? Besides, it's a family business." My tone was daring her to say something bad about Lana. No one says something bad about Lana, I swear to God, I'm gonna humiliate her.

"Oh... How cute." She said in fake sweetness and her glare was cold.

"So Samuel, how are you and Danielle?" I asked the boy and he smirked to me. I know he has been checking my out since he saw me in the kitchen.

"Good. We're okay." He nodded and I acted a bit surprised.

"Only okay? Me and Liam are great. He's so sweet. I wouldn't treat him for the prince." I gushed and then leaned back on him, his arms were around my stomach. All of Liam's friends were smiling now and Liam was blushing again. "Come on, look at that face. You can't resist that." I put my hand on his cheek and then kissed his other cheek, then put my hands over his. Danielle looked beyond pissed now and Samuel looked jealous. Wow, lovely couple...

"You're awfully quiet Liam." Danielle changed the subject.

"He's never this quiet unless he got some last night." Harry commented and now my eyes widened and I felt my face heat up. He made that sound bad! We did not do anything last night. All of them were now snickering, while Danielle looked even more pissed and Samuel was shooting daggers at Liam.

"Okay... Change subject please." Liam said and he was really red now. Truth is, he actually got some last night, but not from me..

"Here you have your drinks, do you know what you want to eat?" Lana put everything out to the right person, then put the tray under her arm and pulled out a note pad and took out orders.

"I want a Charity." I smirked, cause they do have a dish named after me. Lana smirked as well, but went quickly.

"That isn't anything." Niall said and turned the menu upside down, scanning it over and over.

"Yeah, it is. I know her family like they are mine. So they made a dish only for me. It has... Never mind, you can wait and see." I said proudly and then Liam kissed my cheek nad pulled me closer to him.

"I think Samuel has the hots for you." He whispered in my ear. I glanced up he was indeed jealous like I thought earlier.

"Mhm... What do we do about that?" I whispered back and he bit his lip to think. "Make him even more jealous, idiot." I whispered again and he let go of his lip and slowly nodded.

"And how do we do that?" He whispered again and looked at me.

"Dunno, be couply or whatever. What makes guys jealous?" I asked him now. We were still whispering.

"What are you two lovebirds whispering about?" Perrie asked up with a smirk.

"We're planning out our wedding." I said sarcastically, making them crack up a bit. Liam even chuckled.

"Don't hate me for this." Liam whispered and I turned my head and raised my eyebrows in confusion. He then cupped my cheek and kissed me. Yeah, that was definitely not expected. He pulled back quickly though and swept his thumb over my lips. I gave him a sweet smile and then turned back to the rest, his friends looked really stunned now, while the other two were ready to blow up.

"Charity, Lana told me your were here. Who are your friends?" Georgina, Lana's mum, I call her Gina, came with her motherly smile.

"Gina." I stood up again and hugged her. "I'm helping a friend out. The tan one is his ex and I'm playing the one with brown eyes' girlfriend of a month, please don't blow it up?" I explained in a whispere and then pulled away. "Now this is Danielle and Samuel. Then you have Liam's band. Niall, Harry, Louis with his girlfriend Eleanor and Zayn with his girlfriend Perrie. And you know Liam." I pointed to the last boy and then sat down on his lap.

"Of course I know Liam. How are you, dare?" She played along perfectly.

"I'm good." He nodded and looked thankful for her playing along. "What about you, Gina?"

"I am perfect. It's good to see you two here again. You are always together, you have to come by here more often." She smiled warmly.

"Will do." He nodded and then Gina had to go again. This is actually going well. I honestly thought it would be a disaster....
