Where It's Sunny

Chapter 4

Jesy and I arrive to the restaurant. It was decorated so nice. I loved the sea shells everywhere.

We arrived at the large table set up for our group. I got really nervous when I saw Liam. He was waving for me take a seat next to him.

"Go on." Jesy nudged my arm.

I smiled wide at her and went over to Liam. He pulled the chair out wide for me to sit. He was a real gentlemen.

"You look lovely." Liam said taking his seat next to mine.

"You do too." I said admiring his brown eyes.

The table quickly filled up. It was getting loud. I did notice there was one empty seat at the end of the table. The only person that hasn't arrived was Harry.

Liam kept making conversation with me as everyone was being really loud and obnoxious. We were getting our drinks served as everyone looked up to the chair pulling out from the table. Harry had arrived. He looked a bit disturbed. His eyes scanned the table and then they stopped on me. I gave him a smile and he looked away annoyed.

"Harry, finally you show up." Niall broke the silence.

Everyone began talking again. Liam kept touching my arm, and then my lap. It was a little uncomfortable but I didn't mind it. I did have to kiss him in order to get Harry's journal back. Louis was telling a story, so all of our attention was on him. I starred him and then from the corner of my eye I see Harry, his arms on the table looking at me.

He had a stern look on his face. I tried not to stare as I darted my eyes back and fourth bewteen him and Louis. He gave me one mean glance before he turned to give Louis his un-divided attention.

I didn't notice, but I had just ignored everything Louis has just said. Everyone was in laughter, even Harry. I tried faking my laugh, and I turned to Liam as he was still laughing. He reached for my hand while he was calming down and held it, leaving small chuckles. I didn't expect him to do this. Not in front of everyone. I caressed his hand as I slowly slipped mine away from him. He noticed and put his arm around my chair. Thankfully it didn't draw in any attention to me. Only I looked to the end of the table and Harry's eyes were right on Liam and I.

Finally when our food came Liam was too busy eating to pay me any attention. I wish he did though, because I was wondering my eyes over the table. Louis was sitting by Jesy and she kept feeding him popcorn shrimp. It was cute. I watched her flirt as Louis jokingly tried to feed her a whole crab. Everyone giggled at there action. Except for Harry who was starring at me again.

After we finished dinner I excused my self to use the restroom. Leigh-Ann came along with me to my surprise. She held onto my arm as we walked, she was in some really high heels. I didn't mind her at all.

"What is up with you and Liam?" she asked as we entered the bathroom.

"I don't know actually." I admit. I have to kiss him, to get a private journal back for Harry. I guess people were noticing now.

"He seems into you Jade." She said entering the bathroom stall. I stood in front of my mirror checking my teeth. I re-applied some lip gloss I had in my bag and waited for Leigh-Ann.

"And so does Harry." She said washing her hands.

I had no response to her. I guess she noticed him starring at me all through dinner? Or maybe Jesy told her about the airplane ride.

We walked back out to the table. After all the guys spilt the bill we all decided to walk back to our hotel room and take the long way on the beach. All the girls took off there heels, and me my wedges as We felt the sand on our feet.

"Jade." Harry said walking next to me. I froze a little as I noticed Liam was walking towards me. I saw him sort of pause as I continued to walk slowly with Harry.

"What is it?" I ask him.

"You have something of mine don't you?"

"I think." How did he know?

"Please, don't tell anyone about it, Just give it back to me." He begged

"I am working on that Harry." I stop walking. His eyes look wide.

"What do you mean you are working on it?" He almost raised his voice but caught himself.

"I'm sorry, Jesy took it thinking it was mine, She hid it playfully and said I couldn't get it back until I kissed-" I stopped and made sure no one was hearing our conversation. I noticed them a couple feet ahead of us as they kept on walking.

"Kiss who?" He snapped. His hands were on his head in frustration.

I stopped talking as I saw Jesy come towards us.

"Oh hello, Jade why aren't you two joining us?" She said smiling at both us. Harry was fuming as he stuck his hands into his khaki shorts.

"We were just chatting." I say quickly.

"Harry, I didn't recognize you on the plane, I've seen you at parties all the time" She said patting his arm. He moved away and nodded.

"You were always passed out drunk, I didn't think you would remember any party you went to." He said shaking his head. His tone came off rude, but joking at the same time.

"True." Jesy said smiling as she skipped away to the group.

"Fuck!" Harry mumbled. I quickly looked to him as he kicked sand.

"I'll give you your journal back, I promise." I said as the rest of the group was waiting for us. All eyes were on us. Harry walked fast going towards Louis.

I would feel awful if my private thoughts were missing. Especially if some stranger had them. I hope Jesy doesn't look through it. She's not much of a reader so I'm sure she won't look through it.

"Liam!" I said skipping to catch up to him. He smiled warmly.

"Everything OK?" He asked walking closer.

"Yes." I assured him. I glanced over to my left and saw Harry and Louis both starring at me. Can the staring stop? It is making me nervous.

"Are you cold?" Liam asks as he watches me rub my arms together

"A little" I say.

"i wish I had a jacket to offer you." He says kindly.

I really enjoyed Liam's company. He is always sweet. It's hard not to like him. I can't use Liam for just a kiss? I would feel awful if he found out why I was kissing him. He is too good of a guy to use.

We are all separated from the group. Liam and I took out sweet time, conversing and admiring the water. He was such a good listener. I felt myself lost in his eyes as he told me random stories. I've got to admit I love his company. I never allowed myself to know him personally back on campus. I was too focused on school work. I should have gone out more jesy, she passed her classes, maybe not with straight A's but still.

Liam walked me all the way to my hotel room. I didn't want to ruin this by kissing him. I hope he would avoid it. Liam smiled watching me dig through my bag for the hotel key.

"Thank you for walking me" I said unlocking the door.

"No problem babe, see you tomorrow." He said hugging me, and I was relived he didn't go in for a kiss. I was honestly looking forward to seeing him again.

I watched him turn away as I stepped into the room.

"Ahhh!" I squealed really loud when I saw someone run and hide on the side of my queen bed.
