Chapter Thirty Seven

Nothing is perfect. There's always going to be something that will prevent perfect. "Annie?" "huh? What?" "we're landing." Niall states. "oh sorry." "everything fine?" "uh yeah. I just hate landing." "oh. Okay." he takes my hand in his and I close my eyes to enjoy the moment. I open my eyes again when the plane comes to a stop. "Ready?" Louis asks. "uh yeah." "Are you alright babe?" I giggle a little. "What's so funny?" "babe." I say in a British accent. "now your just mocking me." "maybe." we stand and get off the plane. Big men with cameras are all around us. Niall holds my hand tightly. "Don't answer any questions." he whispers to me. I keep my head down and zone out the rest of the world. We get in the car and his grip loosens. "That was crazy." Zayn says. "Is it always like that?" "yeah most of the time." "Can we eat?" "really? We haven't even been here a whole thirty minutes and you already want to eat?" "yes! I'm starving!" "I'm hungry too." says Niall. "your always hungry mate." Zayn replies. "Can we just eat?" "fine." we drive over to a restaurant to eat. I sit down between Niall and Liam. I order chicken fingers. "When is your first concert?" "tomorrow." Harry answers. "So we have today to do whatever?" "yeah." "Anyone want to take me shopping?" "I'll go." Louis says. "Anyone else?" they all shake their heads. "looks like it's only us Lou." Niall tries took some of my chicken fingers. "nooo." "please." he begs. "maybe. If your nice." "but." "nope." "fine." I'm satisfied. I take another bite and hand my plate to Niall. "really?" "yes." "Annie you ready?" "I can't go shopping in this." "Fine. Okay catch up with you guts later. Were going to run to the hotel and change then shop." "okay see ya later." I give Niall a kiss on the cheek and me and Louis head out. We take a different car to the hotel and change. I put on some jeans and a crop top. "Louis are you ready!" "yeah!" I grab my phone and Louis and I head to the stores. "Where first?" "I don't know." "let's go get you some dresses." "ugh." "let's go." he pulls on my arm and into a dress store. He pulls a bunch of strapless dresses off the shelves and throws them at me. "go." "okay okay." I try a cream colored one on first. I walk out to show Louis who's sitting on a chair by a wall mirror. "I like it." he says standing. "nye." "go try on another." I turn to go and try on a knee length pink and black dress. "that ones pretty." "why am I trying on dresses?" "because." "okay." I try on a white dress that's short in the front and long in the back. "This is the one." "for what?!" "I can't tell you." "why not?" "because it's a secret." "fine then." "we need to get you shoes." "your not going to tell me for what are you?" "nope." "fine let's go." Louis pays for the dress and we walk down the street a little to the next store. Louis holds my hand so he doesn't 'lose me' whatever that means. "You have really small hands." he says lifting our hands up. "no your hands are just really big." we walk into the store and look at the shoes. "your going to try on these." he says holding up a pair of purple wedges. "what size are you?" I look down. "six." "small feet and small hands." "I'm a small person." "you don't say." "whatever." I try my shoes on and stand up for Louis to look at me. "Your going to be beautiful." "still not knowing what your talking about." "you'll know tomorrow." "okay." we buy the shoes and start heading back to the hotel. "How was shopping?" Harry asks. "it was good but Louis wouldn't tell me why we were shopping." "well it's only three let's head down to the pool." "okay sounds fun." "go change." "okay." I take my bags to my room and change into my bathing suit. I come out and see the boys are gone. "guys! Gu-!" Harry comes and picks me up and carries me out the door. "Harry! Put me down!" "can't do that." he carries me down to the pool and throws me in. "Harry! What the hell was that for!?" "I don't know." "well come help me out." "fine." he comes over to the edge of the pool and I pull him in. "Annie!" "yes." "what was that for?!" "I don't know." I say mocking him. He splashes water into my face. "hey!" "hay is for horses." I splash him back. We go back and forth splashing each other until the boys come down. "There you guys are." Liam says jumping in. "here we are. Wheres Niall and Zayn?" "back in the room." "Are they coming down?" "probably not." "why?" "can't tell you." "oh my gosh!" "sorry." "Harry stop staring at me." I say to a lost Harry. "oh uh sorry." I narrow my eyes at him. "What?" "nothing." "You want to kiss her. Don't you mate?" Louis says. "Annie plug your ears." "fine." Their words are muffled. I can make out a few of their words. "yes. Niall. Underwater. Annie. Annie!" i take my hands from my ears. "yeah?" "were done talking." "oh." "Would you kiss me underwater?" "Harry I have a boyfriend." "I knew you would say that." "sorry I want my first underwater kiss to be with my boyfriend." It's getting dark out. "Let's go get some drinks." Harry says. "I'm going up to bed." Liam says. "I'm with you Liam." Louis adds. "Annie?" "Um." "Go have fun Annie." Liam says. "okay come on Harry."
