Leah's POV
The girls come out of the hotel room and they look a bit blushy. Their hands are almost touching. I smirk at them, and Gabrielle goes red again.
"Tasha. Gabs. ", Lucy says slowly.
Tasha lights up like a Christmas tree. She then links her hands with Gabrielle's, and she seems to ease a bit and smiles. We smile too.
"Happy days, kids.", I say. I think I'm picking up on all this Irish talk. "Let's go."

We knock on the door, and we notice Gabrielle and Tasha haven't stopped holding hands ever since we left. They're great "friends". Just friendly, non romantic friends.
The door swings open to reveal a smiling Matty.
"Hi, girls!", he says, and he hugs me. He then looks at Gabrielle and Tasha. "Who are you two then?"
I can tell they're about to burst with excitement.
"Gabrielle."
"Tasha."
They're smiling like idiots. I have to smile as well.
"I said they could meet you for a few minutes before Gabrielle's mother comes back. Is that OK?", I ask.
"That's perfectly fine. Come in, I'm loving these little hotel teas."
Oh, Matty. How much more British can you get?
"I love them too.", says Gabrielle.
So we go in, and we have the hotel tea. I gotta admit, it is rather nice. I'm usually a massive hot chocolate geek but I think I would live in this hotel my whole life just for this. Also, I need to go for a proper swim here tomorrow.
When 15 minutes pass, Gabrielle gets a text from her mother telling her to go back because she wanted her to be asleep before she returned. Its adorable, considering she'll be 15 in February.
We say goodbye, and before they leave, I pull Tasha aside.
"So," I say with a smirk, "when did it happen?"
Tasha rolls her eyes. "Around 45 minutes ago. We're quite happy. See you sometime tomorrow."
"See you then."
And I shut the door. I lie on the bed with Abby, and without even changing into my pyjamas, I fall fast asleep.

The next day, after breakfast, we head down to the pool. Matty and Gabby go into their own corner, and the boys hang out in the jacuzzi. They're adorable. Abby and I are talking with our feet dangling over the edge. Lucy is off swimming laps.
"So,", Abby says, "do you miss home?"
"A bit. Like, I'm loving this but this is the longest I've ever been away from home. Embarrassing, right?"
"No, I get it. I'm a bit homesick today. But I'm loving it here. The girls last night were adorable."
I chuckle. "They really were. Just 2 teenagers in love."
"Yup. Just like us two."
I stare at her for a few moments, and then, she pushes me into the pool. I am going to murder this girl.
She laughs and jumps in after me. Its such a cliché but to be honest, Abby could make any cliché cool.
We float around for a while, splashing each other and kissing each other every once in a while. I feel nothing but happiness, and I catch Matty smiling at me, as he touches Gabby's growing bump. Everything is nothing less than perfect.
You win, Ireland. You win.
