Tao: me and Elle are

He turns his head to look at her and they smile at eachother

Tao: together

Everyone starts saying various things along the lines of 'omg what' and 'I never would've thought'

Me and Charlie however both shout: WE KNEW IT

Tao and Elle laugh and put their heads against eachother.

Me and nick smile at eachother from across the table and then me and Charlie finally sit back down in our seats

Nick: everything ok with Charlie?

Y/N: yeah, everything's fine

I smile at him and he seems to be satisfied enough with my answer and he puts his arm around me

The night continues, and the air of happiness doesn't damper at all, Charlie messages me from across the table and says

*instagram*

Charlie: he replied.

*charlie sent a screenshot*

*on the ss*

Ben: are you kidding?! I've treated you better than you deserve

Charlie: no, you've treated me like crap and I'm done standing for it

Ben: fine. Talk to you when you come crawling back

Charlie: don't delude yourself Ben

Ben: don't delude yourself into thinking you can be without me

Charlie: no delusion required, just common sense

Ben: you'll regret this

*close screenshot*

Y/N: Im so proud of you char

Charlie: I'm proud of me too, thank you for helping me stand up to him, don't know where I'd be without you.

Just then the deserts come out, but before I eat mine I decide an actual trip to the bathroom is necessary, so, as it turns out, does tao, as we end up walking to the toilets together

Y/N: Im really happy for you and Elle

Tao: and I GUESS I'm happy for you and nick as well

Y/N: thanks tao

Tao: I've denied it as long as I could but he's a nice guy, I can't believe I'm trusting him with you

Y/N: he's a great guy, you don't need to worry about him

Tao: even so, you're my friend y/n, and part of me still sees nick as a rugby lad like Harry, I know he's not but you just get used to seeing people in a certain way

Y/N: yeah i get that, and if Nick ever gives you reason to, I give you my permission to give him a full telling off

Nick: well I'm hoping I don't ever give him reason to

I jump a little, I hadn't noticed Nick catch us up on route to the bathrooms

Nick: hey congrats man, I'm happy for you and Elle

Tao: thanks... I'm happy for you and y/n too

To my surprise they exchange a not all that awkward hug

Tao: but If you ever hurt I swear to god-

Nick: she's in safe hands

Tao: she better be

Y/N: I am
