Haven't Met You Yet

Chapter 26- Cutie Pie

Chapter 26:

"Guys, I'm starvin!" Niall whined, still laid back in his chair.

I heard my stomach growl. I looked over at Harry, "Me too." I shot him a pouty face.

He set his phone back on to the table, and looked around at Lou, Liam, and Zayn. "I could go for that pizzeria around the corner. I heard they have the best bread nubs in town."

"Sure, that sounds good." The other three chorused.

"I'm up for whatever," Niall says, standing up and already headed for the door.

Louis and Liam exchanged a look with a little laughter, while Zayn followed after Niall. Harry got up from his chair and walked over to me.

"Shall we?" He asked, extending his hand out to me.

I gracefully placed mine on to his, "Yes we shall."

I began to giggle as we interlocked our fingers and walked out the door. As we entered the elevator with Liam and Louis, we couldn't even see Niall and Zayn on the ground. They probably already left.. Figures, when Niall's hungry, he'll be moving faster than a leprechaun does to protect his gold. Yes, I just compared Niall to a leprechaun and I am not ashamed.

The elevator doors soon opened, revealing a small group waiting for us to extract. We scattered out, moving past the group and to the front. When I was following behind Harry, we passed by this girl who looked about my age, maybe a little older, but she looked at Harry lovingly and gave me this evil look. I tugged my hand, which tugged Harry's, pulling him back.

"Something wrong?" He turned back and asked me.

I looked back at the girl in the elevator now. "Who is she?"

He looked into the elevator as well, "That's just Sara Calvnere. SYCO's head managers daughter. Why?"

"She looked at me funny, like I was some competition to her."

"Oh, well, let's continue on. Here, hop on my back."

I looked at him funny, "But Harry-"

"It's a free ride?" He interrupted me.

I just shrugged and jumped on to his back, right then and there in the high class building of SYCO records. I wrapped my arms firmly around his neck, and pressed my head on his shoulder. He continued walking and began to run when we got closer to the door, causing me to laugh and squeal. I tucked my head into his shoulder, grinning like a Cheshire cat. He ran most of the way to the pizzeria, passing Louis and Liam on the way. He began to slow down as we approached the cozy building, pizza and other Italian pastries' aromas mingling around my nose.

He gently placed my feet back on the ground. As soon as my feet were grounded, I immediately ran into the pizzeria. Pushing open the door, making the little bell above it jingle. I looked over at the tables and saw Zayn and Niall seated at one, Zayn was texting on his phone while Niall didn't hesitate to dig right in. I fast walked over to them and sat down on a chair in between the two of them. I grabbed two slices of chicken and onion pizza, stuffing half of one in my mouth.

Right as Harry approaches the table, I hear Niall banter, "You know, I sometimes think you're girlfriend would be better with me."

I chuckled and looked up at the now evil-eying Harry. "Oh come on, Haz. Lighten up!" I mumble through my full mouth. He smiled and took a seat next to Zayn, Liam and Louis following after.

After we'd finish our bread nubs, 4 trays of pizza, and chicken alfredo, we were stuffed like turkeys on Thanksgiving.

"I don't think I can get up.." I say, staring at my plate.

"I think I could go for another round of bottomless bread nubs," Niall says, looking at the waiter. "Oh waiter!" He calls out to the young man who passed him.

We all groan, "Niall, you goof. Can we get out of here and actually do something fun?" Zayn asks, taking a sip of his drink.

"But.. Eating is fun." Niall looks down.

"Yeah, it's fun. But, I think Zayn means do something more active. Like a walk in Battersea park." Liam kindly explains.

"That sounds fun." I add.

"So, Battersea it is?" Louis asks, looking at all of us.

We all nod, "Alright, I'm going to call Dani and see if she and Eleanor want to meet us there." Liam insures us, while standing up and pulling out his phone.

While Liam went outside to call up the girls, Louis, Niall, Zayn, and Harry all pulled out their phones. I just sat there, not sure what to say, or do. I'm just casually sitting here, fiddling with my napkin. A few seconds later, I feel my phone vibrate. I pull it out of my pocket.

New Message from Harold ♥:

"You look like a loner ...xx"

I looked up from my phone, rolled my head to look at him, leaning my head on my shoulder and stuck my tongue out at him. He stuck his right back at me. I giggled, and started typing in my response.

"And you sir, look like a monkey. Xoxoxo"

Message sent. I put my phone down on the table and looked over at him until he went to grab his phone. I watched his facials turn from happy to an oh-its-on expression. I pressed my hand on my lips, as if saying 'oops'.

"Ok lads," I gave him a look, "and El.. Dani and Eleanor are gonna meet us there in 10. Let's get going?" Liam asks, rushing back in.

"Ok." We all chorused, standing up and pushing our chairs in.

We all walked along the sidewalk, just talking about random topics. One was if it's possible for a man to give birth, another was how many chucks could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck had no wood, and the other was what it's like to have a period.... Yeah... Talk about worst time to be around.

As we reached our car, we all had to squish into Harry's since the rest were picked up by the limo. Liam sat shotgun, Harry drove, Zayn was on the far right side, I was beside Zayn, Niall was beside me, and Louis was on the far left side.

"But Harry, I could perfectly fit in the trunk!" Niall protested.

"No, Niall. That's very dangerous and illegal." Liam informed him.

"But Liam-"

"No buts Niall."

Niall let out a sigh, while I sat there laughing to myself. This was way too cute.

"What?" Niall asked me.

I looked at him and smiled, "You're just so darn cute." I say in a baby voice, placing my hand under his chin and pressing his cheeks together, making him look like a fish.

He cheekily smiled but waved my hand away.
