"This place is so good I swear I'm addicted to froyo." Christine laughs and we make our way into the ever-so-framiliar froyo shop. We come here all the time, so much the workers know our names.

"I wonder if they have new flavors." I squeal as I make my way over to the machines. I honestly don't know what's so thrilling about fake ice cream, but all I know is that I overreact about it way too much.

"The only flavor you want is Niall's lips." Christine says with a smirk as she walk over to me and gives me a small hip bump. This girl really knows how to get to me.

"Shut uppppp." I say, blushing because I know it's true. I would die to be with him right now. I wonder what he's up to. Ill text him. Hopefully not being too clingy considering we just parted ways a couple hours ago.

To: Niall<3

Heyyyyy :) what's up?

After I hit the send button, I begin to pile up my froyo with every candy, sauce, and cereal imaginable. This is my splurge, in money and calories. We walk up to the register, pay for our froyo, which Christine insists on paying for which I hate. I've always been the person to pay for things myself. It's not because "I'm a independent woman and I can pay for things for myself" when it comes to guys, and even my girl friends, I just feel bad spending other people's money. Now that I'm grow up, I can see why parents always used to argue over money related things. I think it's because everyone is so strung for money these days that people don't like spending other people's. But anyways, I'm really upset that Christine paid, mostly because she knows I like to.

"So, now I need to hear literally everything about the trip. Every detail, every word spoken." She demands as I dig into my heaping mound of heavenly froyo.

"Everything? What if I want it to be special?" I question.

"Nothing's special enough for you not to tell me." She says, half joking half not. It's kind of true, no matter what it is, were extremely open with each other, even if it's embarrassing. Some of the stories I've shared with her I've not even wanted to admit were true to myself, let alone her.

"Fine." I huff, taking a breath and then spilling out every single moment from when I stepped into the car with Eleanor and out with Niall. It honestly was kind of weird telling her about Niall and I like kissing and stuff but other than that it was fine. She seemed extremely intrigued, seeing as she never took her eyes off of me.

"Wow." She says as I finish my extremely long story.

"Yup, and the rest is history."

"You and Niall are so damn cute together. I wish I had someone like that." She pouted and she returned to eating her froyo.

"You know, I could try to set you up with Harry if you want." I said in all seriousness, because Harry is such a cutie and I know they would grow on each other.

"But isn't he Louis best friend?" She asked.

"Yeah. They're like brothers." I tell her.

"Is he like him?"

"Yeah I mean they're best friends." I explain, not knowing where she's going with this.

"Then no thanks. I don't want Harry to leave me like Louis left you. And me, but more you." She says, leaving me speechless. I can't believe she just said that, I thought she was okay with Louis now.

"First, Louis had reasons for not being able to contact me that often. Second, I thought you were okay with him. And third, Harry would never do that." I say everything I want at once.

"I am okay with him but I can't excuse what he did." She states simply, like it was no big deal.

"Think what you want, but he didn't. And you should really give Harry a chance. I'm gonna ask Niall if Harry would be up for it." I said truthfully. I really think they would be good for each other. They're both extremely loyal, and I think that would be great for both of them.

Just as I was about to see if Niall texted me back, my phone buzzing indicating a new message from him.

From: Niall<3

Hey love! I'm just chilling at home with the boys, you? Xx

I reply in no time, wanting so badly to talk to him.

To: Niall<3

At froyo with Christine. Hey, do you think maybe Harry would be interested in going on a date with Christine?

I really hope he asks and he says yes, even though Harry doesn't know her.

From: Niall<3

He said he'd be up for it. Do you guys wanna go on a double date tomorrow?

YES! This is a perfect idea and oh my god I'm freaking out with excitement. I'll get to see Niall and she can be with Harry! I'm making this so much more exciting than it is but whatever I'm still really excited.

To: Niall<3

Sounds great!! Pick us up at 7?

From: Niall<3

Sounds like a date ;)

To: Niall<3

See ya then :)

"Hey Chris?" I say to get her attention.

"We have a date tomorrow." I say with a grin.

"With WHO?" She ask, fuming but at the same time, I can tell she's excited to have a date.

"A double date with Niall and Harry." I happily tell her, trying to contain my excitement.

"I DON'T EVEN KNOW HARRY!" She says in a stern tone, but I can see the smirk on her face.

"But you will. You'll love Harry he's such a sweetie. And plus, don't act like you're not excited, I know you think he's hot." I smirk, remembering all the times I've forced her to watch their performances on TV and she'd repeatedly call him "the hot one".

"I'- well I'm not gonna like I am excited." She smiles shyly, always being shy about relationships.

"I knew it!! It's gonna be great. Plus I think you two would be such a cute couple." I tell her. And it's true, they would make an adorable couple. They're personalities are so similar, both fun loving and childish, but at the same time serious. And even their looks would make them appear as a nice couple. They both have darker brown hair, with light eyes. Even though Christine's appear light brown, a majority of the are green just like Harry's. This is honestly going to be perfect.

"Do you want to head home? It's getting kinda late and I need to shower." Christine snaps me out of my thoughts as she says this. I look down to see a ton of froyo left, which I quickly eat. We both throw our cups away and walk back to the car.

Once we turn the radio on, of course, what's on? What Makes You Beautiful. I look over to Christine, who's on the drivers side, and I can already see the smirk on her face.

I crank the music up to full volume and we belt my five new favorite boys' song down the road into the summer nights air.
