The Girl Next Door ( H.S ) (Postponed)

5. Are You Like, Deaf Or Something?

"So why are we going to lunch with that hot chick?" Niall asks me as I grab my car keys and we head out the door.

"Because if you didn't notice, the whole house was clean. She did it. Whilst everyone was asleep. Including myself."

"So your basically saying she's wife material? I might ask her out. I mean if that's ok with you?"

I look at him. "Why are you asking my permission? She's not my girlfriend. I'm not her dad. Why are you asking me?"

"Because you like her."

"I don't like her."

Do I?

No I don't like her.

I don't.

I knock on the door.

No answer.

I knock again a bit louder.

All of a sudden the door opens.

"Oh good afternoon Harry." Audrey says.

"Hello. Are Riley and Megan in? We are all going out for lunch."

"Oh that's nice. Let me go get them I think they are in their rooms upstairs. Would you like to come in?"

"That's ok. We will just wait out here. Thank you."

She shuts the door whilst we wait outside.

"What a Milf. Good looks must run in the family. What's Megan like?"

I let out a little laugh.

"What's so funny?"

"Oh you will see."

He looks at me in confusion.

Suddenly the door opens and Riley walks out, followed by Megan.

"Oh hey Niall. I didn't know you was joining us. This is my little sister Megan."

Megan lets out a shy wave.

Niall glances at me and I laugh.

"Nice to meet you Megan."

"Harry it's nice to see you own at least one t-shirt." she jokes.

I shake my head in amusement.

"Are we ready to go?" I ask. "I'll drive. Does anyone want to go anywhere in particular? I know a burger place with an arcade. We could go there."

"Sounds great Harry." Riley says politely.

We all walk to my Range Rover. Niall calls shot gun so he rides in the front seat while Riley and Megan take a seat in the back.

"I'll pick the music." Niall sticks his iPhone into the music dock.

Maroon 5 start to play softly in the background.

"You have a nice car Harry."

I look at her from the rear view mirror. "Thank you. I got it for my 18th birthday."

She smiles at me.

I'm not quite sure if she could even hear what I said.

I need to stop doing that.

After about a 20 minute drive we pull up to a restaurant called Ruby's.

"This place do the best burgers." I state as we walk inside.

"Pick a table. Anywhere is fine."

Niall walks over to the booth in the corner and everyone follows after him.
