Aloha Aloha ✩ Harry Styles (Editing)

Chapter 12

Next to a Ross and a Target, we finally find a Walmart. Louis grabs a cart and gives it to me. I grab it and move toward the food section.

"Marshmallows are essential, search them!" Louis says with a rough voice.

I look in the shelves of the hallway, searching for them. In that time, I grab some Ritz, Cheerios and Oreos.

"Where are them?" Louis asks on his knees while he searches in the bottom shelves.
"Louis," I call him, pointing the very top shelf, where they are.
"Why did they put the marshmallows there?" he asks, standing in the tips of his feet to reach for them.
"There was maybe no space?" I guess.
"There is always space for them, even in a shelf or in a stomach," he says.

I shake my head and laugh.

"Like this one?" I ask to Louis, showing him a blue and white stripped shirt. We are now at the nearby Ross, looking at what I can wear tonight.
"I would have liked it in 2011," he says, laughing.
"And this one?" I show him a black and white plaid shirt.
"For you?" he asks and I nod. "The colors aren't cool."
"And... this?" I show him my last option; a plaid shirt with other mixed patterns.
"Ha, that's cool," he says. "Worried about tonight?"
"Well, I had more time to think the things that I could do wrong and right, so yeah," I say, grinning.
"Don't you worry!" he exclaims, relaxed. "It will be a normal campfire with normal people."
"And Keanna," I complete.
"And Madison, and their friends, and us," he replies. "Don't worry."
"Okay, okay," I say. "I won't."
"You won't be nervous at all, okay?" Louis asks, looking directly at my eyes. "Be yourself and she will fall to your feet."
"That's what happened with Eleanor?" I ask.
"Not exactly... but that's not what we were talking about!" he exclaims, laughing. "Just... promise you won't be nervous!"
"I promise," I say, noddong. "Pinkie promised!"
"What happens when you break a promise with me?" he exclaims.
"Nothing, because we never break a promise," I reply.
"That's right," he says, smiling.
"It's been a long time in which we haven't as this close," I say, smiling.
"Yeah," he says. "I missed you. But no tears now, man."

For getting to Coconut Island, we don't need to take a boat, or drive a car, or any kind of transportation. Our hotel is a few meters far from it! After we are all ready and dressed, we grab our snacks in recyclable bags and a cooler and start walking. This time, I carry the cooler. I was wearing the shirt I bought at Ross this early morning with Louis, black skinny jeans, and my typical brown boots.

We go to the back of the hotel, where there's a pool and some chairs to relax in, and cross beneath some trees. Those trees are still green, as if it was spring. It was 5:00 pm and the sky was darkening. After we cross, we can see a few people in the island. And there's Keanna.

"There are they," Niall says, smiling.

We start crossing the bridge which leads us to the small island. When we almost reach there, Keanna turns at us and gasps. She is wearing a baby blue dress and brown sandals. She was also using a transparent, orange framed glasses.

"You are here! Finally!" she exclaims. "You are the last ones."
"I see," Liam says as he watches around.
"Where I leave this?" I ask.
"Oh, let me help," a blonde guy says, coming toward me and grabbing the cooler. "You came walking with this? It's really heavy dude."

I grab the bags and follow him. After we leave them, we turn to see each other. His blonde hair is similar to Niall's, both in the color and the way it's combed. He has a few moles and freckles, and a warm smile.

"I am Ethan," he says, smiling. "You are Harry, right?"
"Yes," I say. "Nice to meet you."
"I mean the same," he says and shakes my hand. "You are popular around here."
"Really?" I ask. "We haven't created any big commotion by now."
"Well, but some of the girls here like you a lot," he says, grinning. "I sometimes get jealous."
"We are just like you man," I say, shrugging. "Normal, nice people."
"I know," he says, patting my back. "You seem like that."

I smile at him. We go back with the lads and Keanna, which were reunited with everybody else.

"And here is Harry!" a girl says, smiling widely. "Can I give you a hug?"
I laugh. "Of course!" I open my arms and she hugs me hardly.
"She's Josie," Madison says. "The greatest fan of you I know."
"Oh my gosh!" Josie says, stopping the hug and covering her mouth. "You are so lucky Keanna!"
"I know!" Keanna says, laughing.

Josie looks really excited and is on the edge of crying. But instead of crying, she laughs.

"Well, let me present you the rest of this people," Keanna says. "Formation!"

Everyone except the boys, Madison, and me, make a line, marching like soldiers. They get to their place perfectly aligned, looking towards us. At the same time, they do a soldier salute and then unfold their arms back again.

"Perfect!" Keanna shouts, laughing and clapping to them.
"Did you plan it?" Zayn asks, laughing.
"A few minutes ago, actually!" she exclaims.
"I am Carter!" a short and skinny guy with dark hair exclaims. "I am the clever."
"I am Tanya," a blonde girl says, laughing. "I don't know who am I."
"How deep quote Tanya," Madison says, making us laugh. "She's like the... artist."
"Oh yeah, I like those things," she says, laughing.
"She draws really good!" Madison exclaims.
"I am Ethan," Ethan says. "I am the quarterback."
"Wow Ethan," a brunette girl says, laughing. "I am Anna, the stylist."
"She has more than 100,000 followers on Polyvore!" Tanya exclaims.
"Wow!" Louis exclaims, making Anna blush a little.
"I am Josie," Josie says, smiling. "The fangirl."
"She also likes 5 Seconds of Summer, Panic! at The Disco, Imagine Dragons, Cher Lloyd, so many," Carter says.
"You already know me," Keanna says. "I am the funny one, right?"
"Yeah," Anna says, laughing.
"She makes my day everyday," Tanya says.
"And I am the... the what?" Madison asks.
"The caring one," Keanna says, smiling.
"Aw," Madison says, giving her friend a quick hug.
"Well 1D guys, these are my best friends," Keanna says.
"Nice to meet you all," Niall says, following the rest of us.
"Same!" Tanya exclaims.
"You seem cool," Carter says.
"They are really cool," Keanna says, grinning.
"That's enough about us," Liam says, laughing.
"Well, let's start the campfire," Zayn says, rubbing his hands.

✩ ✩ ✩

The bonfire starts burning from the wood. It isn't that big, but illuminates us. Barely, but it illuminates us. We had the permission of making it, just if we turn it off later and throw away all the trash. Blankets and pillows were distributed around the grass.

"This is our kind of campfire," Anna says. "Synonym to the best we could do!"
"It looks awesome," Carter says, shrugging.
"And comfortable!" Ethan says, laying in the ground with his head in a pillow.
"Hey, that was my pillow," Keanna teases Ethan.
"Get another one K," he says, closing his eye lids.
"Ugh," Keanna says, laughing. "Harry! May I sit besides you?"
"Yes," I say, smiling.

She smiles and sits at the right. In the left, Josie is talking with Niall. She is calmed now and looks like someone nice. I look at Keanna and she has already grabbed a bunch of marshmallows and two sticks. She makes a bubble out of the bubble gum she was biting and pops it. She laughs and keeps biting it.

"Want some marshmallows Haz?" she says, moving them around my face temptingly.
"I didn't, but now that you have tempted me, I may have some," I say, grabbing some and a stick. I place them carefully in it and point it to the fire as well as her.
"I have never tasted them," Keanna says.
"Really?" I ask.
"I was supposed to be allergic to them," she says, laughing. "A few weeks ago they told me I was not anymore! I was just searching a good moment to taste them."
"And this is a good moment?" I ask, furrowing my eyebrows. She laughs and looks at my eyes.
"Yes it is," she replies, biting a pink marshmallow with a bright smile.
