Recommended song: steal my girl

Hanna comes out of the bathroom, wearing a black dress and black heels. Her hair is tied back in a bun and she looks absolutely gorgeous.

"Wahoo if Louis doesn't throw himself on you when seeing you like that, I don't know what's wrong with him" I joke

"Charlotte !" She laughs, shocked.

"What ? You look amazing !" I say and mean it.

"Thanks babe ! You should get ready !"

I nod and grab my new dress before locking myself in the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, I reappear and look at myself in the mirror. I'm quite surprised of my reflection. I don't look like a 18 years old girl but more like an older woman. I'm wearing a bright red skin-tight dress, with golden dangling earrings. Some strands of my hair are tied by a hairgrip and others are falling on my forehead and my shoulders. My eyes are surrounded by a thin line of eyeliner and the mascara makes my eyes look bigger.

"Hot" Niall smirks from the doorstep and I roll my eyes, amused.
He takes a few steps in the room and helps me to fasten my necklace.

"Where's Harry ?" I ask

"Outside. I don't know what he's doing" he shrugs.

"I'll join him"

We go back downstairs and Niall goes to the kitchen to help Liam and Hanna to cook and prepare for the party while I join Harry in the garden.
I see him pacing up and down next to the pool.

"Hey" I put my hand on his shoulder and I notice that he's on the phone when he turns to face me.
His eyes widen when he sees me and he takes a few steps away.

"Fuck..." He mumbles staring at me and I look at him confused
"hm I'll call you back later" he says to the person on the phone before hanging up.

"What's wrong ?" I frown. He keeps staring at me with his wide eyes.

"Nothing... You're just... Stunning"

I smile and he takes my hand to pull me closer to him.

"I'm a very lucky guy" he smirks.

We stare at each other for a few seconds, without blinking and at this exact moment, they're nothing more important than his green gaze dropped into mine and his lips slowly moving to say I love you.
I grin and approach my lips to his, kissing him hard. He wraps his arms around my waist as I give him another kiss on the neck.

"We should go back and help the others" he whispers in my ear, releasing the hold he has on me.

"Okay..." I pout.

"Tonight will be fun"

"Yes ! I can't wait to meet your friends from LA"

He smiles and takes my hand to lead me to the kitchen where Louis and Zayn are opening the wine bottles while Han, Niall and Liam are cooking.

"Finally, you've decided to help us !" Zayn teases.

"Sorry we were in the garden" I apologise

Liam smiles at me and I join him to help peel the potatoes.

"Harold you have a print of lipstick on your neck" Louis points out and Niall sniggers.
Harry blushes and I bite the inside of my cheek to hide my smirk.

"It's fine, it's not like the day when Hanna and I caught you on the edge of the sink, pawing at each other"

"Louis !" I shout.
