(Scarlet's POV)

"So, Louis, how is tour going?" I ask him nonchalantly.

"Fine. Though, I think this was my favorite show yet." he says, blushing slightly.

"Mine too," Niall mumbles, his mouth full of spaghetti. Mikayla laughs and wipes the corners of his mouth with her napkin. They are really into each other!

'Good for them!' I think to myself, 'now if only Louis would feel that way about me!' I think despairingly. For a while, we make small talk about tour and songs, until the topic, thanks to Mikayla's mom, got onto relationships.

"So Louis, are you in a relationship?" Mikayla's mom asks.

"No, not at the moment," he responds, as his finger's interlace with mine.

'Maybe he does have feeling for me!' I think to myself. We continue talking until dessert arrives. When that happens, Louis let'g go of my hand, so he can eat his cake. Him and I decide to split a peice fo double chocolate cake. It was really good!

"So, " Niall begins, once we finished dessert. "Do you girls want to hang for a few hours? We can go to your house, if your mom is worried!" he says, agknowleding the concerned look on Mikayla's mom's face.

"Well, I guess that would be alright with me," her mom says after a few tense moments.

"Yay! Thanks mom!" Mikayla says, getting up and hugging her mom.

"So we're off!" Harry says, and we all stand.

(Mikayla's POV)

My mom allows us to take the limo with the guys as she takes the lead with her mini van. We all sat in the surprisingly comfortable leather seats. There was a small TV in the back along with a radio in the corner. Harry turned the TV on to Entertainment Tonight and of course, guess who they were talking about.

"One Direction were last sighted at their concert in Ohio with two teenage girls. Who are these girls? And will we be seeing more of them?" The blond reporter said. The guys just laughed.

They showed a bunch of pictures from the concert. They even somehow got a picture of us at the restaurant. It was when I was cleaning Niall's face of spaghetti sauce. I felt my cheeks burn. Niall leaned in toward my ear and whispered, "You know, you are really cute when you blush."

My cheeks grew even redder, and he laughed. "Shut up," I muttered, hiding a smile with my drooping curls.

After a few minutes, the TV was turned off and Niall got out his guitar. I became mesmerized as he strummed a soft melody.

He looked up at me again. "Do you know how to play?" He asks. I bite my lip and slowly shake my head no. "Here, I'll teach you!"

He scooted closer, and grabbed my hand, placing it on the neck of the guitar. "Ok, now just move your fingers back and forth from this position," he paused, showing me the finger placements, "to this position."

I did as told and he strummed strings to the familiar beat. Then, he began singing. ( Btw, this song is called Lucky:) )

"Do you hear me? I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying"

I start the girl part, singing more confidently then I felt.

"Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard"

He joined in for the chorus, our voices mixing together beautifully.

"I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooh ooh ooh

They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will

I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday"

(Niall) "And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair"

(Me) "Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning 'round
You hold me right here, right now"

(Both) "I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again

I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh"

"And, now you how to play the guitar."
