London Love
Chapter 22
Niall, Mia, Harry and I left the restaurant and headed out to the cars waiting outside. Harry still hadn’t let go on my hand and I moved closer to him and rested my head on his shoulder.
He gave me a sweet kiss on the top of my head and rubbed circles on the back of my hand. It was so nice to be with Harry again. It’d been a month since we’d seen each other, but him surprising me in Times Square for New Years was so sweet and reminded me why I loved him so much.
Our first stop was the empire state building, which was really cool to finally visit. The view of New York was incredible and we took lots of pictures! We went to the Statue of Liberty, even though the boat ride over to it was FREEZING. I wanted to stand near the railing of the boat and Harry wrapped his arms around me from behind to keep me warm.
We did some shopping and people watching in Time Square, but the boys were starting to get recognized more and more and we finally decided to go back to the hotel.
Harry and I walked into the room and I put my bags down next to my suitcase.
“You really don’t have to buy me every single thing that I say is cute.” I said laughing and flopping down on the bed.
“I know I don’t, but I love you and want to buy you everything you could ever want.” He said laying down next to me and pulling me close to him.
“I have everything that I want Harry. I have amazing friends, good grades, my family and of course my incredible sexy boyfriend.” I said laughing and kissing Harry’s nose.
“I’m glad I got to see New York with you today.” He said, “I’ve been going mad without you.”
“Me too Harry.” I said softly trying not to let my tears fall.
He pulled me closer to him and just rubbed his hand on my back. We didn’t even have to say it, but we both missed being with each other. We just wanted to stay like this forever. I gave him quick kiss and we drifted off to sleep.
We were woken up by a loud banging on our door.
“LINDSAY! HARRY! OPEN UP!” Mia screamed from the other side of the door.
I looked over at Harry and laughed before getting up and opening it.
“It’s 7:30! Are you ready?” She said looking at her new Michael Kors watch. (nice touch Niall)
“Uhhh ya! Sorry we must have fallen asleep. Give me like 5 minutes and we’ll meet you downstairs!” I told Mia and she nodded, Niall following her down the hall with his guitar.
I rushed into the bathroom and fixed my hair. I took a deep breath and starred at my reflection in the mirror. Harry came up behind me and rested his head on my shoulder.
“You’re going to do great love. They’ll love you, just like I do.” He said squeezing me.
I was next to preform. There was a good size crowd in the pub and I was really really nervous.
“Hey! I used to get really nervous before gigs. You just have to remember that they’re all rooting for you out there and they want to see you do well.” Niall said to me giving me a hug.
“You’re right. Thanks Niall.” I said letting out a sigh of relief.
I walked on stage and Niall followed behind me. I sat on the stool and pulled my mic stand to my mouth.
“Hi everyone. My name’s Lindsay Shaw. I’m going to be singing ‘I Found A Boy’ by Adele. I’m dedicating it to a special someone in the audience.” I said and the crowd hooted and hollered.
Niall played the first opening chords and I opened my mouth, my hands still shaking.
I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
Couldn't help myself, you're too good to be true
I fall short each time
Everytime he ain't here
I was looking at Harry and he was just smiling back at me. It made me less nervous seeing him in the crowd. I continued…
You and your charm get closer, closer in here
Like a fool for fire I fall, with my pride and all
Like a bomb before explosion
Ticking by your call
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed
And I'm just a child who belongs on her knees
I got some courage and stood up now. Taking the mic stand with one hand and gesturing with my other hand.
But I found a boy who I love more
Than I ever did you before
So stand beside the river I cried
And let yourself down
Look how you want me now that I don't need you
The song continued and I got more and more comfortable. It was fun just being up there with Niall pretending I was back in my room singing my heart out without a care in the world.
When I finished the crowd went crazy with applause. I blushed and waved.
“Thank you so much!” I said and put the microphone back before walking offstage with Niall.
“LINDSAY!!! THAT WAS INCREDIBLE MATE!!!” He said really excited. “I had no idea you could sing like that!!!”
“Thanks Niall. Not really sure where that came from, but it was really fun.”
“LINDSAY!!!” Harry and Mia yelled coming to me and pulling me into a huge hug.
“Thank was awesome!!!” Mia said giving Niall a hug now.
“You were bloody amazing!” Harry said pulling me in for a kiss. “Really babe, I… wow. So incredible.” He said hugging me again.
“Thanks guys. Look I’m really hungry! Think we could grab some dinner?” I said.
“YES!!! I’M STARVING!!!” Niall said and we all laughed and left in search of somewhere to eat.
The next morning, I woke up to Harry’s alarm going off. I playfully shoved him and said, “Make it stop!!”
He laughed and shut it off. “Babe we have to get up. We go on Ellen today. The boys are meeting us there too!”
I groaned and got out of bed and dragged myself into the shower. I was by no means a morning person and Harry new this. When I got out of the shower I came into the room to see Starbucks waiting on the table.
“STARBUCKS! I love you.” I said rushing and gulping some down.
“Umm.. Ouch.” Harry said sitting on the bed.
“Oh I love you too.” I said sticking my tongue out at him and giving him a deep kiss.
“Go take a shower, we have to leave soon.” I said playfully smacking his bum as he walked away.
He looked back and winked at me before shutting the door. Now this is when I had my real dilemma… What was I going to wear?!
