Getting Better (Sequel To Mute)

Chapter 7

The party was awesome, but neither Brooke nor Niall would make any moves, but you could see they were blushing. I grabbed Louis's hand and pulled him to the side. "Look at Brooke and Niall," I said. He looked over and groaned. "I though they'd be together by now!" he said. "I did too!" I said, "but they're both too shy," I muttered.

"Just like you were," Louis said with a smile. I blushed and nodded. "Yup, but you weren't shy at all," I said. Louis shrugged. "What can I say?" he said. I laughed. "We have to get them together though," I said. He nodded. "I think Keke and Harry are thinking the same thing," he said pointing towards them. They were whispering to each other and looking towards Brooke and Niall.

"Hey why is Zayn so said?" Louis asked changing the subject. "He misses that girl Melissa," I said. "he doesn't even know her!" Louis said. "I know, but you know what they say, love at first sight," I said. Louis sighed. "Well Liam seems to be thinking the same thing as me, you, Harry, and Keke," he said. Liam walked over and whispered something to Niall. Niall blushed a bright red and both he and Liam glanced over to Brooke who was talking with Josh.

"Niall, she likes you," I said. Niall pointed at the pair. "Then why is he flirting with him?!" he demanded.

"Aw come on mate don't do this," Louis said. Niall frowned. "Do what?" he asked. " Don't start getting jealous they're obviously just friends, you and Brooke are more than friends, or somewhere in-between," Louis said. Niall sighed and looked over at them. Jealousy was written all over his face. "What if she starts liking him?!" he asked nervously. "She won't if you go and talk to her," Liam said. Niall sighed and looked over at Brooke with a longing look on his face.

He shook his head and walked away. "Poor Ni," I said softly. "I don't understand why he won't go and talk to her!" Louis said. "He's nervous! He's probably afraid he'll get hurt again because of Natalie," I said. Louis and Liam sighed. I looked over to Brooke and saw her laughing and talking with Josh.

Oh great.
