Crazy Love - Chapter 2

Harry looked across the table at me and looked curious and Louis frowned, not saying a word after that. Well... Awkward. After everyone, besides Louis because he wasn't hungry, ate we all began walking down to the pier a few blocks away. I had a nice time talking with Niall about random things on the way. I could already see us being good friends.

Behind me I could feel both Louis's and Liam's stare. Harry was talking with Zayn and Stella in front of me so I was grateful for that. I glanced behind me and the two boys grinned at me. "Fake." I heard Niall mumble. I turned to him, "What?" I asked quietly. He shook his head, "Them... Ah never mind I'll talk to you later."

I was about to press him for more but suddenly I was grabbed and pulled behind one of the shops. "Hey!" I protested but then looked up into Liam's eyes. Big brown eyes. I thought but stopped myself. "I said I needed to talk to you." He smiled shyly. "Yeah, but you don't have to give me a heart attack!" I laughed leaning up against the wall. He bit his lip and smiled gently.

"Listen, I know you aren't the dating type and all... But I think Harry likes you... a lot." He looked up expecting me to look shocked. I bit my lip. "I don't think so." I shook my head in disagreement. "I can't blame him. You're a gorgeous young lady, Harry would be lucky to have you." He smiled. I raised my eyebrows suddenly feeling a bit sad Liam was saying this.

I blew out a breath of air dramatically. "If my parents agree... I'll be going on tour with you guys. I can't see myself with Harry... He's like a brother-" "He likes you, Clair." Liam closed his eyes for a second. "I'm just warning you, he's gonna ask you out most likely. What are you gonna say?" He asked with an edge of bitterness and anger but hid it very well.

I shrugged not able to think at this moment. Harry Styles and Clair Knight... Liam Payne and Clair Knight... Louis Tomlinson and Clair Knight............ Was I really sure which one was right? Harry is so sweet. Louis is an angel to me. Liam gives me some pretty weird feelings. Deep down I liked all three, but I'm not gonna just chase two boys who may not even like me like that. "What should I say?" I asked.

Urgh! Really Clair?! How pathetic to cling on to that hope! Liam sighed looking off out of the pier, and looking beyond the waters. "I think... If you really like him...Say yes." He said sadly and looked back at me. I smiled feeling a bit disappointed at the same time glad I'd now have an answer. "Then I'll say yes."

"Good." He responded. The air was awkward after that so I smiled and started catching up with the group. "So um... Are we friends?" Liam asked quietly behind me. I turned and smiled. "Of course!" I gave him a side hug and he grinned. We ran to catch the group and everyone seemed oblivious but Louis. He glared at Liam with anger and looked away not even speaking a word. Well... Awkward again.

After a while of just walking and stuff, I caught up with Harry. "Hey Harry!" I smiled friendly. He grinned. "Hey Clair! Do you wanna go in there with me?" He pointed to a little shop and I nodded eagerly. We walked inside and it was a cute little gift shop. "Should I get this?" I asked holding up a charm bracelet that had charms with Florida on them. He nodded. "It's cute." I paid for it and put it on.

We walked out and he grabbed my hand as we strode around looking at shops. "So I was thinking..." Harry trailed off and I nodded for him to continue. "Would you wanna go out with me, tomorrow night?" He asked and I bit my lip. "Sure, I'd love to!" I said smiling and he looked relieved. "Great! How's 6?" I nodded. "6 is good." I smiled, "Can we go back now? These sandals are killing my feet." I laughed and Harry nodded.

we headed back to the restaurant and called the boys. We left in the car Zayn and Stella took because they could ride with Louis and got to the hotel. We said goodnight, no kiss, and went to our separate rooms. I called my parents about the tour and they said if I wanted to go. I should go. So I would be telling the boys tomorrow...

I took a shower, slipped on pjs and climbed into bed drifting off to sleep easily tonight.

But before I did, a thought came to mind. What about Big Time Rush who will be touring with One Direction? What will they be like? I tried to shrug off my nerves on meeting them and fell in a deep dreamless sleep. The next day began normally. Stella and I had a great time hanging out as usual at the beach. The boys were at some rehearsal thing so we weren't seeing them today. But I did have my date with Harry so I'm glad for that.

The day passed and soon I went on my date with Harry. It went great! So the rest of the week was filled with dates with Harry and hanging out with the guys some. I think I'm ready for the tour fully now. My mother helped me by going to my Apartment and sending my clothes to me and now I had them, so that was good. Stella's going with me, as it appears Zayn and her are dating too. I'm happy for them and can't wait!

Another week passes and it's finally time to leave on tour. I rush to the door in the morning after I had gotten ready. It was 9 am sharp and I was ready. I dragged Stella's and my bags out to the door ready to go and fixed breakfast. The boys knocked and I opened the door for them. They all came in loudly and fixed themselves breakfast. They do this every day now... They turned on the tv and ate on the couch.

A man came up and took their bags and I thanked him. I plopped on the couch and felt arms wrap around me, Looking to see Louis put his head on my shoulder. Harry looked at him weird. "Mmmm your hair smells nice." Louis commented and I laughed. "Thanks." "Louis..." Harry warned and Louis looked confused then released his arms around me. "Sorry, almost forgot about..." He paused. "That."

He finished and stood up, walking to the kitchen and doing whatever. I bit my lip and moved to sit next to Niall because he's not awkward. "So, We leave in a few minutes..." Niall said smiling. "Yep! I'm ready... I'm a bit nervous but at least I'm ready." I said chuckling still a bit nervous. Liam smiled and scooted himself over. "Your gonna have to share..." He said biting his lip. I raised my eyebrows. "What?"

I asked and Liam chuckled. "We all have bunk beds in the bus... But at the hotel we only get 3 rooms. 1 is Harry and Louis's. 2 is Niall and Zayn's. They usually give me a room to myself... But your gonna have to share it with me. Don't worry about bed arrangements, I'm sleeping on the couch." I shook my head. "I'll sleep on the couch." I tried but he shook his head. "Your back would hurt." I groaned. "Yours would too!"

he raised his eyebrows. "It's the gentlemen like thing to do." I scoffed. "It's the lady like thing to do." we glared at each other and I stared him down. "You can't stare me down." He said without blinking. "I so can." I said not even flinching. We kept on until finally he blinked and I cheered. "YES!" he groaned. "I'm still sleeping on the couch." He mumbled getting up and walking out the door, headed down the hall.

I rolled my eyes and stood up as well as Niall and Harry. We headed out the door but I stopped at the doorway. Harry turned and gave me a confused look. "What are you doing?" He asked. I smiled shrugging, "Waiting on Louis." He smiled nodding and walking down the hall with Niall, started humming a tune. They disappeared out of sight and I bit my lip walking into the room.

I went to the kitchen and saw Louis leaning over it with a pained expression. "Hey Louis." I greeted smiling. "We gotta go." I stated. He looked up and nodded but only leaned his back against the counter. "Your so pretty." He sighed crossing his arms. I walked over to him and stood in front of him. "an old thing like me? Pfft." I smirked crossing my arms as well.

He laughed unfolding his arms and wrapped them around me. He kissed my cheek quickly and before I had time to think... He was out the door. I groaned running after him. This will be one heck of an interesting summer.
