Summer Love

part thirtysix

Emily’s POV

I woke up at my usual time and had only one thing on my mind, stealing Lauren’s phone. She had gone out for her usual drink so I impatiently waited for her return. When she finally did get home she went straight for a shower, she was one of the few people that didn’t actually take too long in the shower so I didn’t have that much time. When I was 100% sure she was in there I ran into her room and grabbed her phone off of her bed, it only took a few rings until Lisa picked up, “Hi Lisa, it’s Emily, Lauren’s flatmate, we have met a few times, I was just calling to let you know Lauren is really ill and she won’t be able to work tonight, she says she is really sorry”

“That’s fine, tell her I hope she feels better soon!” She ended the phone call instantly; I deleted the call history and threw her phone back to where it was before. I ran out the room and pretended like nothing had just happened. A few minutes later she came out in her sweats, “Lisa left a message and said you didn’t need to work tonight, she didn’t say why but she said don’t call her because she’s busy today.” I did well keeping my cool I thought.

Lauren’s POV

Lisa, letting me have the day off? Is she okay? As I went into the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea, I felt Emily following behind me. “We’re going out tonight.” I honestly wasn’t in the mood tonight. “Nahhh Emily.”

“Yes. I’m not taking no for answer,” This was weird. Emily was weird. Usually I’m the one dragging her out. “Fine then, whatever you say.”

Harry’s POV

I spoke to the manager of the place, Michael and he agreed to let me ‘hire’ the place out for a few hours, he took a lot of convincing but he did agree, he said he trusted Lauren at least to take care of the place as he knew her pretty well. We had it from eight till twelve. I was so excited to surprise her; hopefully this would win her over.

Emily’s POV

“I need you to walk past Refoveos at about half eight, so you two need to start getting ready, knowing Lauren she will take forever.” I chuckled at his text, he was right Lauren probably would take a while.  “Lauren!”

“Yeah,” I heard a faint call back “We’re going out at like 8:20 so start getting ready now!”

“Okay!”  To make the whole thing seem real it meant I had to get dressed up myself, for no reason. I didn’t make much of an effort, wore some high waisted jeans, a sheer blouse and just straightended my hair with simple makeup. When Lauren came out into the living room she was in a black dress http://www.missguided.co.uk/hania-long-sleeve-mesh-bodycon-dress  with a gold chunky necklace.

Lauren’s POV

“Right, let’s make a move,” Emily looked very excited normally she didn’t see going out for drinks as anything special. The cold wind hit me like a bitch slap in the face, we walked through the horrible weather, we were going a different way to our normal route. We were walking down the street talking about her and Niall when out the corner of my eye I saw something odd, Refoveo wasn’t blacked out, I did a double take and then saw the whole place was covered in candles. And there he was standing in the doorway smiling down at me. What the hell was going on?
