Riptide (A One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 11: Does anyone else see him shirtless?

We pull away from the hug and he looks into my eyes. He jerks away from my stare and turns to look at the ground. Praying for something to break the awkward silence, his phone beeps and he pulls it out of his tight jean pocket.

*Harold! Where are you? You and Alice have been gone for two hours!!!! Come home we miss you ;)*

Harry smiles at the text and shows the bright screen to me. Shocked that we have been out this long I check the time to see that it is 9:30. I look at Harry and ask him if we should head to the hotel. He nods and we head in the direction that Harry had parked his car. As we drive an uncomfortable  silence takes us over and I decide to turn on some music. When I turn on the radio "Stay" by Rihanna featuring Mikky Ekko starts to play. As soon as I hear the song my face lightens up. I trully love this song and know practically all the lyrics. I hum along to the opening and then start to softly sing the lyrics

All along it was a fever

A cold sweat hot-headed believer

I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something,"

He said, "If you dare come a little closer."

Round and around and around and around we go

Oh now tell me now tell me now tell me now you know

Then out of the blue I hear the most angelic voice start to sing along with me. I look over at Harry and see him focusing on the road and singing to the tune coming from the radio. I continue to sing, this time a little louder, and soon feel a pair of eyes watching me.

"Harry watch the road!! I am only singing along to my favorite song..." I tell him.

"You have an amazing voice, you know that." Looking into my eyes again as he compliments me.

"Umm accroding to Kat I have an "okay" voice but, coming from that girl, who sounds like a couple of dying cats, I can never tell if she is telling me the truth." I tell Harry and he smiles. We continue to sing along to the song as a duet.

Not really sure how to feel about it.

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you.

It takes me all the way.

I want you to stay.

Ooh the reason I hold on

Ooh cause I need this hole gone

Funny you're the broken one but I'm the only one who needed saving

Cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving

Not really sure how to feel about it.

Something in the way you move

Makes me feel like I can't live without you.

It takes me all the way.

I want you to stay, stay.

I want you to stay, oh.

By the time the song is over, Harry and I are out of breath from practically yelling the song. We had continuously tried to one up each other in singing volume. He looks at me and we smile.

"I am really glad that we can start over and be friends again." I tell Harry. He smiles at me again and is dimples appear. I reach over and poke one. He chuckles and and grabs my hand.
