Twist of Fate

Nearing the End

About a week later
Liam
We are nearing June's last week and a half, and we couldn't be more heartbroken to say goodbye in 10 days. I actually caught Louis crying because she has to leave and it'll be so long before we'll see her again. She's been getting a lot more secretive around her sketchbook, only drawing on the porch and in her room. She's complained of ruining several drawings, and when I look over her shoulder, I see it's because of tears. So we've decided to take her to dinner. Us 6, and no one else. We've planned to take her to Garden Palace, a small hole in the wall place, where we've got it all to ourselves. It's really fancy though. We told June to wear her nicest. We leave in about an hour. June has also finally told us a little more about herself. We actually didn't know any of this:
1. Her birthday is August 5
2. Her favorite color is light blue
3. Her favorite song is a tie between Rock Me and What Makes You Beautiful
4. She was class valedictorian
5. Louis has always been her favorite(we all pretended to get a little offended here)
6. She used to streak her hair a different color every school year. This year, she's doing red, to remind her of us(we were all acting over emotional, but really, it's touching)
7. The straight hair is not natural. Only Louis knew that.
Louis has it all written down, and in a small book he has of things about her. Pictures, small pieces of art drawn on napkins. It's adorable.
"Louis! Get June and get your arse down here!" I yelled. There was a loud gasp from upstairs. We soon saw why. June and Louis made it to the stairs, and June looked stunning. She was wearing a floor length dress with a slit on one side up to her knee. Sleeves down to her elbows, and v neck. She had on her white strappy flip flop things. She held her clutch from the premiere, and her hair was in huge curls that reached her shoulder blades. She looked amazing. We were all in suits. Perfect.
"Is it too much?" June asks, seeing our faces.
"It's absolutely perfect. This is a really fancy place." Niall says. She nods, and we are on our way. June also brings her purse with a spare outfit. We all smile when she says how much she hates this dress and how much she wants to change. She said she might spill on it on purpose. We laugh.
"Here we are!" Zayn says. He's smiling his head off. We're surprising June tomorrow, and he can't wait. It's really funny actually. We head inside, and are immediately led outside to the garden table. We have 3 courses set. They immediately bring out champagne, garlic bread, and tomato bisque.
"Guys, this is wonderful! How long have you known this place?" She asks.
"Since it opened. My cousins own it." Harry grins.
"Hazza!" We hear.
"Speak of the devils!" He mutters, smiling wide. "Eddy, Sallie, Genie, this is Niall, Liam, Zayn, Louis, and June." He says, pointing to a man with curly brown hair, and his daughters, a blonde teen and brunette 8 or 9 year old girl.
"Hi." Niall says.
"Hi, everyone." Zayn says.
"Hello." I say.
"Hey, guys." Louis grins.
"Nice to meet you all." June says, shyly.
"Hey, where's Artemis?" Harry asks. Eddy chuckles.
"I heard my name?" A woman, obviously Artemis, asks. Harry's face lights up when he sees what she holds.
"Who? When? Why haven't I been told?" He stammers.
"This is Xander. He's 6 months. We wanted to surprise you at Christmas!" Artemis says. We make introductions and Harry holds Xander.
"Hey guys, I'm Artemis, but call me Arty." She smiles. We all chat for a while and eat appetizers.
"And here's the entrée, chicken Parmesan with shrimp. Home made." A young man said.
"Leo?" Harry asks.
"Harry?" The boy asks.
"Dude, it's been years! Last time I saw you was like 4 years ago! How's everyone?" Harry asks. We all look at him.
"Oh hey guys, I'm Harry's cousin Leonard." He says, smiling.
"Leo, this is Juniper, Niall, Liam, Zayn, and Louis." Harry says. My god, we've met so many people. Crazy. We eat, and June 'accidentally' spills on her dress.
"Good thing I brought a change of clothes!" She grins. "Where's the restroom, Sallie?" She asks.
"Oh, it's, um, down that way and to the right." Sallie said. June headed down that way, and we finished our food.
"I'm ba-a-ack!" June sing songed. She was wearing a navy blue button down and light pink jeans. Louis smiled and pulled her closer. Niall and I couldn't be closer in our own chairs. And I really didn't want to seem rude and sit together, so... we were kinda stuck.
"And dessert, home made chocolate mousse, caramel and vanilla drizzle, and white chocolate shell." Arty says.
"Oh my goodness, guys, this looks amazing!" June says. I don't think she's said anything so far, so I'm surprised. We eat in silence, before we pay, and hug everyone goodbye. June pulls on a gray knee length hooded jacket and sunglasses from the limo, and we all changed out of our jackets and left on our t shirts and pulled on our extra jackets and glasses and hats from the back.
"Now let's go! We have a city to see!" Niall cheers. He's on a sugar high from the dessert. Great. Oh well. I love him anyway. We head to Big Ben, and we also go to the palace. One the ride home, we get to talking.
"This has been an amazing night. I can't believe I only have 9 days..." she trails off. Louis tears up, and pulls her closer.
"Hey Juneberry, we have a surprise for you!" I say, trying to keep it upbeat.
"What?" She asks.
"We're going to LegoLand!!!" Zayn says. Wow, he's either really hyper or really excited.
"Oh my gosh! Seriously? When?" She is practically bouncing.
"We go tomorrow! It's an all day adventure pass!" Niall says. We all cheer, and when we get home, it's Harry's movie pick.
A movie time later
