Summer Love

part thirtyfive

Emily’s POV

I left Lauren with Harry, might not have been the best idea with her being drunk but they needed time alone. Niall was so excitable, I went into the bathroom to change, when I came out Niall was in my bed. “We should make brownies!” He almost screamed “No, Niall, tomorrow we can.” It was almost four in the morning and of course he wanted to make brownies. “Finnnne!” I sunk down lower in the covers and Niall pushed his body closer to mine, I was completely worn out after tonight and I’m sure Niall probably was too. As I was finally drifting off to sleep Niall broke the silence, “Emily I think you’re really beautiful,” He whispered straight into my ear “Thanks Niall.” I mumbled back.

Harry’s POV

One minute Lauren and I were talking about all this shit and next thing I know I am waking up to the sun shining through the window. Lauren started groaning and turning in her sleep, her eyes quickly flickered open and when she saw me her eyes went wide. “We didn’t... did we?” pointing to both of us “No Lauren don’t worry, we didn’t” I laughed. “I’m guessing you don’t remember our chat last night then?” She sat up “No, that I do remember and I meant what I said, I don’t want to lose you Harry but don’t think that everything is okay now, I am still mad.” I nodded, I thought we would be okay now, least I know she still does like me. Lauren’s phone started buzzing; she reached down over the bed to pick it up. I sat in silence so I didn’t disturb her conversation, “Oh hey Sam!” She got up and went into the living room to talk. Of course Sam was still in the equation.

Lauren’s POV

As I was on the phone with Sam I saw Niall and Emily in the kitchen, baking something, bless them. “Babe I was wondering if you wanted to meet me and get a drink.” I kind of needed to talk to him about everything and explain that now wasn’t the best time for us. “Yeah sure, okay meet me in starbucks in 20 minutes?” He agreed and I went back into my room to get ready. I changed in the bathroom and put on a little makeup and redid my messy bun, “Hey I’m going out for a bit, Emily and Niall are in the kitchen so you’re welcome to stay if you want.” I grabbed my phone ad keys and Harry walked out my room with me and joined Emily and Niall. “Bye guys!” I called to them as I left the apartment.

Harry’s POV

Lauren was obviously meeting Sam, so now I stand no chance of being with her. I needed a big romantic gesture, I had no idea what I would do but I had to do something to win her back.

Emily’s POV

Niall and I had spent the last few hours making brownies and cakes. It was weird having him in our apartment. He kept complaining about his head pounding, sounded exactly like Lauren. Harry came and joined us after Lauren left, which was nice. We asked him what happened with them two last night he told us all about their chat and how he is planning to win her back somehow but he has no clue how yet. By the end of our baking session all three of us were covered in flour and our kitchen was a complete mess.

Lauren’s POV

“I need to talk to you about something Sam,”

“Okay talk,” he gave me a warm smile

“Basically I don’t really know where my head is at right now, I have a lot going on and with this stuff with Harry I don’t think now is the best time for us to start anything, you are such a lovely guy and a great friend but I don’t think anything with us would be great, right now anyway.” He reached across the table and took my hand in his, which was a surprise “Lauren I understand if you go with Harry or you stay single but just know when things mess up then I will be here, I will wait for you, you are the most beautiful girl I know and even if we just stay friends, I don’t want to lose you,” He was saying all the right things, he just wasn’t the right person.

Harry’s POV

Emily said Niall and I could stay for dinner with the girls so we just ordered take away, Lauren was back now. I still didn’t know what to do, take her out for dinner? Too cliché, Take her to Paris? Too much. Do her favourite thing? Take her to her favourite place? Oh my god! I got it! I knew what I needed to do.

Emily’s POV

Niall and Harry left by nine so it was just me and Lauren, she said she was pretty tired so she left me out in the living room by myself. I was just watching Teen Wolf when my phone started buzzing, “Hey Emily, I have a plan, I need you too somehow get Lauren’s phone and tell her boss she can’t go to work tomorrow night, I need you to pretend you are taking her out as well, I will text you tomorrow where you need to be and what time.”

“Are you gonna tell me what you’ve planned,”

“As much as I want too and I trust you won’t tell her I think I will keep it too myself for now, anyway night Emily, text you tomorrow.”

“Night Harry!” Finally it was happening; finally I wouldn’t be dealing with grumpy Lauren. Hopefully Harry’s plan would work, whatever it was. As I got into bed my phone went off again it was a text from Niall, “Night beautiful, thank you for a great day, see you soon x”
