It's Time

Chapter 18

Lara’s POV

“I love your smile and the sound of your laugh. I care about you Lara, you are different from the other girls. I think about you a lot and I bet the boys are sick of me talking about how beautiful you are” I smile and giggle lightly and Harry does the same, I look down embarrassed about all the sweet things Harry had said.

Harry connects his long fingers with my chin he lifts it gently so I am now facing him. He bites his lip slowly a small smirk appearing on his face. Harry leans in, my back now up against the hall way wall. Harry inches closer his lips lightly brushing against mine. I connect my lips with his, our lips move slowly in sync, Harry places his hand gently around my waist and I run my hands gently through his curly locks.

“Let’s start over” I whisper into Harry's ear pulling away from the kiss our foreheads touching.

“I’m Harry” he says quietly so only I could hear, his hand still wrapped around my waist comfortingly.

“and I’m Lara” I replying giggling. I step away from Harry and bite my lip teasingly

“See you later” I say sweetly and walk away with a smile on my face. I haven’t completely forgotten about what Harry did but I need him to make it up to me somehow. I’m not really sure what stage Harry and I are at the moment.

I decide to head to the rehearsal room knowing that the girls should be ready to practise soon. I grab my guitar and sit down. I brush the hair out of my face and begin strumming my guitar.

“I should ink my skin, with your name.

And take my passport out again,

and just replace it.” I sing softly to Wake me up by Ed Sheeran. The door swings open and the girls pile in chatting amogst themselves. I place my guitar on the ground and stand up in front of them.

“Sorry for snapping at you guys earlier this morning” I say asking for forgiveness

“It’s fine” the girls reply understandingly I smile happy that my friends didn’t take my burst of anger too seriously.

“We saw Harry chase after you, What did he say?” Tealiah asks curiously as they all take a seat in a circle facing each other.

“Well it’s a long story but last night at the club, after I came upstairs to talk to you guys I went downstairs and Harry was snogging some bimbo. Anyway he explained his side of the story and we kind of kissed but the kiss was so meaningful” I say giddily to the girls, my cheeks flushing red.

“So are you guys a couple now?” Beth asks excitedly

“Nah, I still haven’t completely forgiven him for what he did but I guess we will just have to play it out” I reply seriously the girls all nod.

“Alright on from that…” Hannah begins

“The finale is in 3 days and we still haven’t chosen the songs we are going to sing?” Hannah says asking if we have any suggestions for our song choice. We are all silent clearly thinking about the possible songs we could sing.

“I was thinking about Adore You by Miley Cyrus” Beth suggests we all nod smiling at each other I pick up my guitar and begin strumming the intro. Tealiah taps her foot on the floor giving us a steady beat.

“When you say you love me

Know I love you more” Emily begins singing along to the music of my guitar

“And when you say you need me

Know I need you more” Beth sings sweetly

“Boy, I adore you

I adore you” We all sing in unison, our voices harmonizing perfectly. I can’t wait to the finale; I just hope all our hard work has paid off.
