***Liam's P.O.V***

Breakfast the next morning was quiet and a tad boring without the girls here. There was nothing like Eleanor yelling at Louis in the morning or Karen jumping on Zayn's bed to wake him up. I didn't really suspect anything. Harry was silent and moody, which he always is in the morning. Zayn was being unusually quiet, but I diregarded that since it was so early in the morning. I started to get concerned when I noticed Louis picking at his food and not being his loud and crazy self. But what really triggered by nervous system was Niall. He was just sitting at the table, not even looking at his breakfast.

"Niall, what's wrong?"

"Nothing, Li. I'm just not hungry." Harry and I both choked on our food while Zayn did a spit take with water. Louis leaned over and started to feel Niall's head for a temperature.

"Liam, is he alright? Is he gonna die?" Louis asked me, hugging Niall tightly.

"Gerrof me, Lou! I'm just not hungry," Niall protested. "I'm thinking about next week," he murmured, staring at the table. Louis, Harry, and Zayn all stopped gaping at Niall and lowered their heads as well. I flash forwarded to next Tuesday. In exactly a week, the lads, Danielle, Perrie, Eleanor, and I were all scheduled to return to Doncaster in time for Louis' birthday on Saturday. We only had seven days left with Amanda, Izzy, Karen, Alex, and Lauren.

"It's alright, Niall. We just have to make this the best week ever," I assured him and everyone else. They all nodded and returned to their breakfast, this time Niall picking at his scrambled eggs.

The girls entered the cabin an hour later, fully dressed and already fed. "We're going to the campsite pool," Danielle told us.

"But it's like, super cold out," Harry said. His eyes were glued to Izzy. Louis told us what happened last night while Harry was in the shower. I wish Harry would just man up and kiss her already. Why was he suddenly so nervous aorund girls? It must seem to her like he was leading her on. I could tell that Izzy fancies Harry as well. If Harry doesn't kiss her soon of his own free will, I'm going to forcefully shove their faces together.

"The pool's heated," Eleanor argued. Louis stuck his tongue out at her playfully and she returned the gesture. Apparently Louis took that as his cue to stand up and wrap his arms around her waist, kissing her roughly. Everyone groaned and Karen picked up one of the sofa pillows and thre it at the lovesick couple.

Me and Danielle pecked lips while Zayn wrapped his arms around Perrie from behind and kissed her cheek repeatedly. "This is sad," Lauren stated, standing in a circle with Amanda, Karen, and Izzy.

"Yeah. Us four are all loners," Amanda agreed, laughing. Karen and Lauren joined in while Izzy looked at the ground, a little sadly. Niall and Harry chuckled and walked over to where the four girls were standing.

"We're joining the single people," Harry declared.

"Yeah, you couples make us sick," Niall joked. Louis and Zayn rolled their eyes and kissed their girlfriends' cheeks.

"Okay, c'mon, girls. It's pool time!" Danielle cheered.

"Boys, if you want, meet us at the pool. And bring food!!" Lauren called out whilst exiting with the rest of the girls. Yup, definately Niall's sister.

"So are we gonna go?" Niall asked.

"Of course we are!!! Liam and Zayn wouldn't miss out on a chance to see Danielle and Perrie in bikinis!!" Harry exclaimed.

"Shut up, Haz," I said. "And what about Louis?"

"Louis' got me," he said, smiling at Louis.

"Oh, I don't think Izzy's gonna be happy." Just as I anticipated, Harry's smile disappeared and his cheeks turned a faint shade of pink. "Admit it, Haz, you like her."
