Cabin in the woods

Chapter 12

I breathed out. He didn't seem to have heard me, and Liam didn't seem to feel awkward at all. I don't think he sees this the same way I do. Danny is getting in the way for a bad reason I won't let him. But I'm hoping he's just being friendly and ignorant, not able to see what was going on just some few seconds ago. Danny didn't left our side, I decided to walk over to Therese and the girls as Harry stopped and said.

«We're here»

It was a big open space with the lake next to it, there was a space a little further away from us with some sand, a volleyball net was up on the sand. It is so beautiful, I was surprised this spot was empty. I stood next to Therese, she smiled at me and I smiled back. Harry was talking so we gave him our attention.

« I'm a terrible fisher, so I have no idea how to fix these fishing rods, I'll put them down and who ever wants to try it is welcome to.»

He said, putting the fishing rods down by the lake with some boxes next to them. There were only 5 of them, but I guess some of us could share them.

Gio, Izzy and Georgia walked to a spot where there was shade and pulled out a huge picnic blanket, it didnt have red and white squares, it was all red with some flowers here and there. They continued pulling out food and more. Some of the guys decided to try and fix the fishing rods, Therese was watching them excited, she knew exactly what to do, but she didn't seem like she was going to give them a hand, she seemed to enjoy watching them try it out.

Harry J. looked around and then turned to us.

«Maybe we should go and find some wood, we'll be needing it later on.»

He said. I nodded, though I wasn't sure why, I didn't want to walk around and try to find wood. Perrie seemed happy she right away put her bag down by the blanket and sang something with marhmallows as she faded away from our sight. Louis walked away slowly, he was standing next some trees pretending to be doing something. Harry J and Harry S faded into the woods as well.

«Lets go then, lets grab two or three and come back.»

Niall said, pulling Therese and me with him. I felt like a little kid being forced to do our chores and I didn't seem to be the only one, Therese and I seemed to be on the same page.

«Oh look Niall.»

Therese pointed at something on the grass.

«Would you look at that, wood.»

Niall said in a funny voice. I had to laugh a little, his humour was always to make different voices with accents. Crazy kid.

«More over here!»

I pointed this time. I felt sorry for him, he was the only one actually doing something, while we just pointed at whatever we saw. After being away from the others for 5 minutes we decided to go back, by we I mean Therese and I, Niall wanted to continue because he had seen something further away and he was sure it was a hare, Therese was suspicious and thought it could be the monster in the woods, so this time we pulled him with us.

«Did you guys do this?»

We heard Perrie ask, we walked out of the woods and saw the campfire sat up, it wasn't burning yet, too early for that, but it was well put together and with some beach chairs around it and some small blankets here and there. I assume there werent chairs enough for us all.

«Yea, Harry and I.»

Harry S. responded.

«Ey, I did some too.»

Louis argued behind them.

«Yea, great job mate, pulling out your chair, grabbing some juice and sitting down, cheers.»

Harry J. said with sarcasm in his voice. Louis puts his cup in the air agreeing with him.

«It looks really good, I agree.»

Therese said.

«Great job boys.»

I said. I noticed the other girls were standing by the other guys watching them with the fishing rods.

«So how is it going over there?»

Therese asks, she had noticed it as well.

«Not well, ey weren't you good at this kind of things? I think you should give them a hand.»

Harry J. said, he was sharpening some sticks with a pocket knife. Therese gave him a cheeky smile, I nodded to answer his question. Harry S. didn't seem to believe what Harry had just said.

«You?»

Harry S. asked surprised.
