TASH'S POV 

The lunch had gone well and to be honest, at first I was worried the lunch would be so awkward but it wasn't but I felt so comfortable around him. I didn't have to think of what to say next or fake a laugh. He made me feel so relaxed. When Eleanor thought Harry and I were dating, I thought I was going to die! But I couldn't blaming her, I could see where she got the idea from as we were going to lunch together. I thought after that things were sure to go pear shaped  but once our food  had been delivered it felt like I was talking to a long lost best friend, we joked around and talked about life in general. I hated to think to think this but Romeo would never talk about life, he would always say that partying and drinking was much more important to him. I can't remember the last time I had a proper conversation with him about us and our life together it's feels like its all fun and games! Sometimes I struggled to see our future together. If he carried on like this I don't see how our relationship could progress to the next level. Yes I did stay over at his apartment every now and then and his desperation for me to move in permanently was adorable but soon we would need something much more stable. 

I trusted him so much but without this secure feeling it felt like there was nothing to stop him repeating his mistakes. I don't think I could handle it if he cheated again. 

The first time he did it we hadn't been together for very long, only three months. And he was my first boyfriend so when I caught him with another girl I didn't know what to do. I forgave him and he swore that this would never happen again. Sure he had kissed plenty of other girls after that but he was trying to be a better person for me. He's still trying. He loved me so he couldn't possibly have done it again.

In a few hours I would see everyone else again for tonight's concert, including Harry. I don't know but I really want to see if the lunch we had together made us closer because I don't want us to have any more awkward conversations. 

My mind started wondering to what would happen if Romeo knew we were hanging out. He would use this as an excuse to kiss another girl for revenge and knowing him probably threaten Harry. I couldn't handle these thoughts so decided to text Phoebe my only close friend here. 

PHOEBE'S POV 

"Ahhh! Finally! Tash texted! She's saying if I want to meet up with her before the concert" I sat up from the bed. Why did it take her so long to text! I know she had probably just gotten to her hotel but I seriously can't do the whole 'patience' thing. I want to know everything about their date, I could hear them laughing and talking in the Harry's room when she was here.

"Hello Earth to Phoebe, am I invisible here?" Ash waved his hand to break my thoughts and get my attention 

"Sorry I was just thinking about Tash" I texted Tash back telling her I would come to her hotel.

"Oh thanks, here's me talking about us and how I enjoyed spending time with you these few hours and there's you obsessing over Tash and Harry!" Ash groaned as got out of the bed and slipped into his boxers. 

"Come on Ash are you seriously going to get angry, don't spoil this we just got over one argument yesterday I don't want us to have another one today" I stood from the bed and grabbed my silk dressing gown.

"Are you serious? You blaming this on me! Well I'm not surprised and this is not an argument Phoebs I'm just saying I would like to have some time with my girlfriend, is that too much to ask?" I could tell he was making an effort to keep his voice calm.

"I know, I know I'm sorry we can spend more time with each other later, right now I need to get ready to meet Tash" I apologised.  His face eventually softened and he placed a kiss on my lips. I wrapped my arms around his shirtless body and smiled up at him, hoping to win him over.

"Okay but were going out to eat dinner" he laughed and lifted the strand of hair from my face before pushing it back behind my ear.

"It's a date" I rewarded him with another kiss then broke away to get dressed.

...

"So how was your little date with Harold then?" I asked Tash as I sat on her bed. Karen looked over at the two of us, a puzzled look on her face.

"That's where you were then" She laughed. Karen was always trying to pair people up so I knew she would have fun with this.

"First of all it was not a date, we were just hanging out" Tash rolled her eyes at both of us.

"Yeah hanging out in his room!" I cut her off. 

She glared at me then continued to speak," Secondly, all we did was eat fish and chips and watch a movie nothing else." 

"Alright we believe you" Karen teased and out both of her hands up, "I'll leave you girls to talk, I'll just be in the shower"

As soon as she slipped into the bathroom Tash jumped to my side and swatted my arm.

"You know she's probably gonna go and tell my mum about all of this thanks to you" I couldn't take her seriously with that scowl on her face.

"Okay I'm sorry and I will not mention it again" I laughed and gave her a hug, "We're going to have so much fun on the road!"

I watched her as she fiddled with some new brushes that Karen had bought for the tour. The way she focused on the tiny bristles with her fingers. She was so down to Earth and I couldn't think of anyone more perfect for Harry. The two of them were meant to be I just knew it.

"It's the last show today right?" She looked up from her hands.

"Yeah after tonight everyone's getting back to the hotel to pack all their stuff then we've got a flight at five in the morning to Scotland" I groaned at the thought of our early morning flight. There would be another show a couple of hours after we landed and a forty-five minute flight would not give me enough sleep. I don't how the boys travelled constantly from city to city yet still put on an amazing show. 

"Well I won't be sleeping tonight" Tash sighed, if only she knew how much we had to stay up. That's why we depended on people like her, to cover the bags under our eyes with makeup.

Karen came out of the shower and we helped her gather things and headed over to the arena. There had been another set change which meant I would be performing in between the boys so I had to get over to the stadium. I texted Ash, telling him that I wouldn't be able to come for dinner. As we drove to the stadium my phone buzzed, I pulled it out and read a text from Ash.

Heard about the set list, I'm having you all to myself on the plane then

I smiled at his response. Words couldn't describe how much I loved this man.
