It Only Takes One

Twenty One

Angie:

I gave Harley a gentle shake, waking him up. He opened his eyes to see me staring at him with a cheeky smile. 

"Morning," I said, voice clear, like I'd been up and watching him for awhile. Which I had - admiring just how good looking he was and the fact I was in a bed with him, yet again. "Come on, let's go get some breakfast." I picked his hand up off the bed and pulled him to his feet. Harley laughed at me, I'd used all my strength to get him up. We walked downstairs, holding hands,  we braced ourselves to enter the kitchen. I hadn't seen anyone for over a week, I was excited and nervous at the same time. Harley didn't know them at all - I could tell how nervous he was. Before we left his room he said he was worried they wouldn't like him.

Harley:

As we strolled in, five girls ran towards us, all crashing into Angie. Our hands parted as she hugged the girls back. They were all talking at once, so it got very loud. After they had finished hugging, Angie turned to me and re-took my hand.

"This is Harley," She said, grinning. Then she introduced me to each of the girls individually. 

First there was Liberty. Long, dark blonde curls, green eyes and pale skin. She was 13, now the third eldest.

Then it was Zoe, 10. Tall for her age, brown eyes and skin, a short black bob haircut.

Next there was Ashley, a petit 8 year old. Her hair was mid-length and dark brown, her eyes dark blue.

Fourth was Izzy, she had pale green eyes and ginger platts. Her face was freckly, she was 7.

Finally, there was Tori, the youngest, 6. She had sky blue eyes and light brown, long hair. Her skin was fairly tanned and she hugged me when Angie introduced us. The girls were all giggly and chatted away through breakfast.

"I told you they'd like you," Angie said, nudging me with a smug look on her face.

Angie:

That day we took a basket full of, sandwhiches, crisps, fruit and chocolate bars to the park for a picnic. Harley took Tori, Izzy and Ashley over to the swings and pushed them for a while. When they returned to the picnic area, the rest of us had sorted out the food. We ate and then had conversations about everything and anything. 

I told him that Tori seemed to have taken quite a liking to him, as she's normally shy, but wasn't with him.

Harley:

The girls were all extreamly nice, loud, rather funny and really friendly. It was easy to get on with them. They were as Angie had described them - a bunch of morons, who it was great to know.
