Haven't Met You Yet

Chapter 21- London Eye

Chapter 21:

We spent the whole day at Anne's. She was such a doll, very cheeky, just like Harry.

During the car ride home, I get an incoming call. I grab my phone, now blasting, "You don't know you're beautiful, oh oh, that's what makes you beautiful!" It's El.

"Hello?" I ask into the mic, knowing it's her.

"El! Hey babe! Let's have a girls day tomorrow with me, you, and Dani!" She bursts out, obviously enthusiastically.

"Um, I don't know what we have planned-"

"Oh, no, the lads are in the studio tomorrow, so the girls are free and get to go out and play!"

I let out a laugh. "Alright, sounds like a plan."

"Yay! Ok, we'll pick you up at Harry's flat at 11!"

"Ok, see you then."

"Kisses!" She then makes loud 'mwah' sounds into the phone.

"Mwah, mwah, mwah..." I reply, kind of confused.

Harry bursts into laughter after I hang up.

"She made you send kisses, didn't she?"

"Yep," I say, popping the p.

"She does that to Lou whenever they end a call. Even on text."

I giggle. "She's too cute."

As we enter through his front door, I hear his phone start ringing from his pocket.

"Babe, your phone's ringing." I warn him.

"Oh," He quickly pulls out his phone. "Hello? Oh hey Niall. Dinner? Now? Alright, we'll be there in a bit." Click.

"Niall?" I ask walking over to the bathroom to fix my smudged eyeliner.

"Yeah, he wants us to meet him and the rest at Nandos for dinner." He responds, walking in beside me, fixing his curls.

I look at his reflection, "Now?"

He looks back at mine, "Um, yeah."

I grab my lipgloss from my purse, and swipe some on my lips. "Alright, let's go." I say, putting the gloss back into my bag. He does his 2 step hair fix, and sweeps his curls to the right. "Wait, just gotta fix one thing..." I fix his bangs a little, and run my fingers through the rest of his curls, making them look extra curly and fluffy. "There."

"My little perfectionist." He says, swiftly kissing me.

"Let's not keep them waiting." I say as he laces our fingers together and pulls me behind him to the door.

"More like, 'Let's get there before Niall eats all the chicken'." Harry jokes. I playfully slap his arm.

***************

"Gosh, Nialler, that's your 3 plate!" I exclaim in astonishment.

"Trust me, he's had way more." Liam informs me.

I just look at him with my eyebrows raised and jaw dropped. Everyone else, Dani, Liam, Lou, El, Zayn, Harry, and I, were too full to finish. As of Niall, he just kept eating, so we all just stayed and waited. It wasn't too much of a bother, I enjoy hanging out with everyone.

"Hey, um, I'm gonna go out to get some air." I say, excusing myself from the table.

I walk down the stairs and out the front door. I take in the fresh air and stare into awe at the lighted London Eye. I sit down on a lounging chair that's placed next to a fire and just take in everything, the atmosphere, the smell of mixtures of perfume, the bright lights surrounding me, everything's just perfected. I sit there for a while and just think, and realize, I miss Tommy, I miss my mom.
