She Was The One (A James McVey FanFic)

Chapter 20- Dinner pt 2.

James' p o v

"Anyone for desserts here?" The camp waiter asked. I looked around the table to see who wanted one, I didn't want to be the only one.
"Could we look at the menu's please?" Steve laughed as no one was answering. We were all handed a menu and started to graze through the options. They all looked so fancy!
"Made your mind up already?" Will asked Lou.
Ugh, can he just go away please.
"No, I'm not sure I can manage a whole one really." She replied.
"Are you feeling okay!?" Grace rushed in.
"Hey! I'm fine haha, just a little full, that's all." Lou laughed.
"Do you want to share one?" I offered, she looked into my eyes and smirked.
"And that's why you were invited!" She teased.
"I'll take that as a yes then!"
"Haha, what have you got your eye on?"
"All of them..." I said, Lou laughed and faced Grace.
"And you call me greedy!" Grace shook her head and laughed.
"What would you like then?" I grinned. She held her menu up so we could both see.
"Well I usually always go for this." She pointed to the Honeycomb Cheesecake.
"That was the one I would have gone for!" I said with surprise.
"No way! Haha, same jacket, same pudding! James McVey you were made for me." She said between laughs. And then stopped.
Wait what?...
Her cheeks shone a shade of pink and she took a sip from her drink. I think she realised what she just said....
James McVey you were made for me.
Maybe she does like me after all...

Lou's p o v

Did I really just say that! Oh god... He probably doesn't like me back and now thinks I'm just weird... Or maybe he didn't notice? Of course he noticed you cock block. Ugh. So embarrassing. I'll have to just carry on and hope he didn't notice.
The waiter came back, Will gave his order, then Grace, then Steve, then Kate and then james. I jumped in and asked for two spoons.
"So you're sharing one?" Steve asked looking smug.
"Yes, is that okay?"
"Fine, fine, fine." He stretched his arms and exchanged glances with Grace. Yup. They're thinking of their little 'bet'.

Our desserts arrived. Once the waiter placed ours down on the table, I swear I could have dribbled. I looked at the cheesecake, then at james, then back at the cheesecake, then back at james.
"Omg, you're really excited aren't you?" He said. I laughed and rested my head in my hands. I hope he doesn't judge me on how much I love my food. I felt someone's warm hands pull my hands from my face.
"I am too." I grinned as james released my hands and picked up his spoon. He took a spoonful of cheesecake and then pointed it in my direction. As he moved the spoon closer, I opened my mouth and then closed my lips around the spoon. He pulled the spoon out of my mouth and the took another spoonful, but this time for himself. Using the same spoon.
"Bloody hell that's delicious." He said enthusiastically making me giggle.

James' p o v

Mine and Lou's plate was scraped clean. There was no sign of any left over cheesecake on it. I looked to my side where she was sitting, she hand one hand on her belly and her head resting on the back of the chair. Even pulling that pose she still looked beautiful.
"I'm so full." She sighed.
"Tell me about it." Grace replied in the same tone. I hadn't realised before, but she was in the exact same pose as Lou. I couldn't help but laugh. The waiter that we've had all night waddled over and gave Steve the bill. He paid it and we all stood up. I grabbed Lou's jacket off the back of her chair before she could get it and helped her into it. Her hair was tucked in the back so I carefully lifted it out. It smelt so good. As I did, I grazed my hand along her neck and down her back. She turned her head and smiled into her shoulder. This felt right. Being this close to her. I wish she was mine. I wish that I could hug her, kiss her, cherish her. I want it more than anything now.

Yeah, more than anything.

I think I'm going to do it.

I'm going to ask her.

Yeah.
It's time.
I don't care anymore, this needs to happen now.
She will be my girlfriend by the end of the night.

That's if she says yes...

I looked to the figure that was standing across the table from Lou. His head was resting slightly to the side, with a shadow from his hair hiding his face. His expression froze on his darkened face. No smile. Narrowed eyes. Furrowed eyebrows. And he was staring right at me.
Nobody else had noticed the weird way Will was looking. I raised my eyebrows at him and mouthed 'what'. He simply straightened his head, smirked at me and then walked over to Lou. He slung his arm over her shoulder, pulling her in close to him, and then started walking out of the restaurant with her. I felt a lump in the back my throat and my heart sunk in my chest. How can people take away others happiness like that? I followed behind them like a lost puppy.
We reached the cars, it just so happened that will had parked in between my car and the Millers car. Brilliant. He still had his arm over her. It's stupid how pissed off I'm getting over this. I need to get her on her own so I can ask her. I want to do it now. But how? He's not even letting me walk next to her let alone talk to her.
I made my way over to Grace, I thanked her, hugged her and said goodbye. I did the same to Kate, and then shook Steve's hand.
Then I turned and faced Lou who was talking to Will. I caught her eye and she tried to walk over to me but will grabbed her wrist and turned her away from me. Why is he doing this? Why? He has a girlfriend. He apologised to me. I don't understand. I shook my head. I can't believe this. I gave up and walked off. I thought she was interested in me. I mean earlier she said I was made for her. Now she seems more interested in will. Frustrated, I shrugged to my car.
I yanked the keys from my pocket and unlocked my car. As I did I looked back. One final look at her before I left.
She looked so beautiful. She always manages to look so beautiful.
Will was still talking to her, but by the expression on her face, she kinda look tired of him. She was looking over his shoulders, like she was missing something, or trying to find something. Then she looked at me. She smiled, and then pushed past will. He grabbed hold of her again but this time she shook him off and jogged over to me. Well I say jog... She had heels on so it was like a fast walk. She reached me with a massive grin on her face.
"Thankyou for coming. See you soon?" She said before placing one hand on my cheek, and the other resting on my chest. She pulled close to me, slowly moving her hand back into my hair. Her face was millimetres from mine, our lips so close. I could feel her soft breath on my face causing shivers to take over my whole body. I was about to move in, press my lips against hers, but suddenly, she moved. Turned her head, and kissed my cheek. She lingered there for a few seconds and then pulled away.
"You tease." I said quietly. She giggled and grinned.
"See you later McVey."
