we're looking down on the clouds

Blaise wasn't really interested in going on this dinner if he was honest, he'd rather just take up Harry on his offer instead because nothing put Blaise off more than going places with someone he doesn't know, it just raises his anxiety. He texted Stella back telling her they could talk about this once she was home and then he turned his phone blank and smiled at Harry, "Thanks Haz, you're far too good to me" Blaise said, tucking his phone into his pocket before he unbuckled his seat belt. Leaning over Blaise pressed his lips against Harry's cheek and his hand on the lads thigh, "Bye gorgeous" he murmured against Harry's skin, playfully nipping his jaw because he was awful and liked teasing Harry.

Liam nearly choked on his own spit. "How are the two of you best friends, you're so different from one another" Liam says with a laugh, running a hand through his hair, wearing it slightly flat for a new look. Stella was sweet, she was a bit more quiet and well, not like Blaise who was very straight forward and well he tended to speak his mind very easily. He couldn't see the two matching so well but he wasn't stupid, he's seen the two in action and Liam now believes that opposites do attract because nothing works better than those two. "It's an Italian restaurant love and I won't tell you how big Harry is" He's been living with the other lad for far too long, he's seen everyone naked too many times to count. Liam shook his head at the offer of her come, "You eat it love and I could drive you, my cars just around the block"

@ sugarplum.

"No problem at all," Harry really didn't mind driving Blaise home as he'd much rather make sure he got home safely then making him walk home, he knew Blaise enjoyed teasing him and he was a little shit for it. Harry didn't have any time to tease the other back either, which in Harry's eyes wasn't fair. His eyes lingered on Blaise as he was making his way away from him, he had a desperate urge to pull Blaise back against his chest and kiss him hard on the lips. He couldn't so Harry was just going to enjoy thinking about what it'd be like to kiss Blaise, he thought about that a lot anyway but now he'd be constantly thinking about the other. "Bye sexy," He called out through the open window as Blaise was making his way towards the front door of the complex, Harry's eyes lingering on his ass as he walked.
-
Stella simply smiled at Liam as she knew he was right, her and Blaise were completely different but they still got along so well. "I don't even know, but we are." She couldn't think about not having Blaise in her life, he made her life funner and so much more exciting. She loved Liam and loved having him as her boyfriend, but having a best friend was even more important to her. Liam was her best friend as well, but Blaise has known her for longer and although they may disagree on a few things, they always made up quickly. She was glad that he wouldn't tell her about Harry as she didn't want to know that, she was much more interested in Liam's size. "That would be great, I still have to talk to Blaise and convince him and get changed." She always loved to dress up and now she could dress up for Liam, not that she had to but she liked to.

Blaise smirked as he got out of the car and gave Harry a short wave, turning around and heading to the front of the complex where he took out his keys and unlocked the door. Checking the time Blaise sighed contently, being home twenty five minutes earlier than usual really put him in a good mood, he'd have more time to just lay in bed and relax and it was always a bonus when he didn't have to walk a mile and a half just to get to work. Blaise quickly checked the mail box and got out all the messages before he took the steps up to the second floor of the three story complex. Opening the front door Blaise left the mail on the side table and went straight to his room, slipped his shoes off, threw his sweater to the corner and fell face first onto his bed, ready for a nap. No one could ever tell him he couldn't be tired, he worked two bloody jobs and took classes at the uni just off the metro.

---

"The strangest math ever mad, but I think you two fit better than me and the lads, it's kind of weird" Liam told her truthfully, he really liked how they worked though and he knew that if Stella was friends with someone then it was for the right reasons and the other person must be good because Stella didn't go around making friends with any sort of bad people. "Great, how about we meet up at the restaurant? It's just ten minutes from your place and then we could all go for a walk if the dinner goes well?" Liam asked as he lead her to the exit of the park, tugging on his shirt a bit to air his chest out. "Niall says the place has really good desserts, if that doesn't work on him you could try and guilt him into coming" Liam unlocks his car and opens the door for Stella, out of pure habit before he walks around and gets into the drivers seat, pulling on his seat belt and turning the car on.

Harry had waited there until he saw Blaise disappear inside the complex, it made him feel like a boyfriend making sure his date got home safely. However he shook that thought from his mind before he pulled his car away from the curb, he drove through the streets so he could get home and just relax. It was Louis' turn to cook dinner and the other wolf loved to keep what he was cooking a secret, Harry never understood why but that was just how Louis was and it was always a nice surprise to sit at the dining table and have a delicious meal waiting there. Harry hadn't really been paying much attention as he drove, so he reached the large house in what felt like seconds although it wasn't. Once he had parked his car, he walked inside and took his shoes off. He could hear Louis singing in the kitchen, Zayn was upstairs in his room and Niall was watching the TV.
-
Stella smiled at Liam as she finished her ice cream cone and threw the napkin into a trash bin as they walked passed one, "That will be good. I really hope Blaise wants to come, I know he'll think I'm trying to set him up and I normally would be. But I really think he'll get on with Harry," She'd have to tell Blaise that and make sure he knew that this wasn't a set up, "We both love desserts." She was really looking forward to having dinner out with two friends, she smiled as she climbed into Liam's car and placed the seat belt across her body. She relaxed in the seat and stared out the window as Liam drove towards her apartment, the apartment that she knew Liam hated but it was home to Stella for now. "I'll let you know if I can convince Blaise to join us," She told her boyfriend when they reached the complex, she took her belt off and leaned over so she could press a kiss to his warm lips before she headed into the complex.

"Use that smile of yours yeah, those dimples should sucker him in to say yes" Liam calls out to her from the car, the window lowered so she could hear him. He really hoped that Blaise would agree, and Harry too, because he knew that if this worked than Stella would feel good about it and there's nothing more Liam wants that Liam feeling good. Liam waited till Stella stepped inside of the complex before he put his car into gear and drove home. He lived a bit away, in a much different area with houses being very separated from one another for privacy. Once he got home he parked his car and thanked the heavens that Harry's car was there since the other tended to always be out and no one really knew as to where. Entering the house Liam walked into the kitchen and greeted Louis with a nod and then took a bit of the popcorn the other lad had laying on the counter."Harry?" Liam calls out moving from the kitchen into the living room to greet Niall. "Got a question mate" he adds.

@ sugarplum.

Harry had already made himself comfortable on his stomach on the couch in the living room, by the time Liam had arrived home after spending the day with Stella again. "Am I going to like this question?" He asked as he was watching whatever show was playing on the TV screen, his eyes moved over to Liam once he had stepped into Harry's line of sight. He adored Stella, much like the rest of the guys because she made Liam happier than anyone else has before. He wasn't sure what Liam could possibly want to ask him, Niall had already tried to figure out where Harry went to during the days when he was out until around dinner time and then the times when he went out later in the day and didn't return home until late in the night. But he would still answer his friends question if he wanted to.
-
Stella let herself into the apartment she shared with Blaise, she placed her handbag down on the kitchen counter before she ran through the small apartment and into Blaise's bedroom. "Blaise baby!" She cheered out loudly knowing that he was probably trying to rest after his early shift at the cafe, she smiled widely as she let herself fall onto his bed but she mostly landed on Blaise's back. "I've missed you, please come to dinner tonight. It's Italian and the desserts are really good, please. I promise I'm not setting you up," She resting her chin on his shoulder and kissed the side of his head, "It means we don't have to cook." She slid off his body and laid beside him, she smiled at him widely so her dimples would form in her cheeks as she looked at him. "It will be so much fun," She looked at her best friend and cuddled into him like they normally do.

@ weapon

Liam put on a casual smile as he made his way over to the couch and sat beside of Harry, placing his hand on top of the others curls and running his fingers through Harry's hair in a casual and calming way. "Going to that sick place Niall recommended, Italian, with Stell and her friend, want to come with?" He asks, knowing he was doing a good job of keeping it casual because it wasn't weird for him to invite one of the lads out with him and Stella, usually Stella never had a friend come with but yeah, it was easy to look past and not suspicious. Leaning back into the comfortable couch Liam glanced down at Harry with a hopeful look, giving the other one of his best smiles because he was really hoping that Harry would agree to this. He knew it would do Harry some good too, maybe Harry might not turn out to like Blaise but at least he'd go out with his friends for a bit and meet someone new. None of the lads knew where the fuck Harry went disappearing off too and it was suspicious and he smelled like either ink of baked treats but no on but Niall really asked.

---

The second that he heard the door slam shut he knew that he wasn't going to get the nap he had been hoping for. And just to prove him right Stella came running into his room and them her small body plastered to his back, making his laugh as he reached over and patted her head, not knowing how in the world that the other had so much energy after her shift but he figured it was Liam who gave her a bit of a boost. "You know Stella, the way you try and convince me that you're not setting me up is how I know you sneaky little shit that you are" Blaise said as he turned onto his side and wrapped his arm around her waist, hugging her close to his body so that they could cuddle. He knew that she only meant well but he really didn't like the whole dating scene and he didn't even know if this person she was trying to set him with was cute or not! "If I don't end up getting laid tonight then you owe me big time Stell," Blaise warns her and in other words agrees to this 'friendly dinner'. "When is it?"

@ sugarplum.

Harry listened to what Liam wanted to ask him, he did take notice of the 'friend' that was going to be at dinner. He did love eating Italian food and by the smell that was coming from the kitchen, Louis wasn't cooking Italian but he also knew how Stella could get so he was a little suspicious. But he never could pass up dinner and he had heard Niall going on about this place, so he was eager to check it out himself. "Alright, but I'm not changing my clothes." He told his friend as he couldn't be bothered in changing, although he was dressed up nicely like he always did. "What time?" He asked as his eyes went back to focus on the show that Niall was watching, this wasn't uncommon for them. Stella invited the lads out often, even though it was obvious most of the time that Liam wanted the girl all to himself and the lads laughed about it a lot.
-
Stella made herself comfortable against Blaise's body which wasn't hard for her to do, "Okay. So I was to begin with, but Liam talked to me and I realised that I should stop trying to set you up. But this really is just a friendly dinner, I think you'll like him as a friend." She was honest with him as she couldn't lie to anyone, "If you don't get laid tonight than I'll take you out somewhere nice so you can find someone." She smiled at him and pressed a kiss to his cheek, "He's really cute. Not as cute as Liam, but no one can beat him." She said rather dreamily as she thought about her boyfriend again, "It's for six and it's not far from here." She informed him as she stayed there a little bit longer, "I need to change and freshen up." She wanted to get out of her work clothes, sitting up she left Blaise's room so she could change in her's. She pulled on a nice floral skirt that flowed around her legs and hit just above her knees, a nice navy blouse with a pair of ballet flats and she threw her locks up into a messy bun.

@ weapon

Liam clasped his hands together when Harry agreed."No problem mate, you look fancy anyways, and it's at six" He informs Harry, glancing down at his watch and seeing they had an hour to go. Even though Harry wasn't going to change Liam sure was, just into something a little lighter and more comfortable for him to wear. He knew it was going to get a little more chilly inside of the restaurant and then outside as night drew closer. "Thanks mate, it'll be fun. Good food" Liam tells the other before he gets up and ruffles Niall's hair before walking up the steps. He refrained from telling Harry too much, he doesn't want the other to feel pressured or like there was an ulterior motive. Going to his drawers Liam picked out some clothes for himself before he got undressed and pulled the fresh clothes his body. He grabbed some of his cologne and spritz a little over himself before he felt like he was satisfied and comfortable with what he was in. Checking the time again Liam went back down stairs and and into the living room,"So mate, where do you disappear too usually?" he asks casually.

---

"I knew Liam was good for something" Blaise joked as he shook his head, thanking Liam in his head for keeping Stella sane and out of his damn personal business in that matter. Slowly bringing himself to sit up Blaise ran a hand through his messy hair and grinned, liking the sound of Stella taking him out somewhere nice to eat, he really does love going to eat out because then he doesn't have to cook and deal with dirty dishes. Don't get him wrong, Blaise is an amazing cook, but nothing puts him off more than dirty dishes. "I believe that you are a hundred percent biased on that because Liam is your boyfriend" he points out before he looks down at what he is wearing, just his casual clothing, a normal boring tee and blue jeans. If he was planning on seducing whoever this guy was he ought to get a little dressed up but then again should he really put effort on a stranger that might not be cute? "Alright go dance in some flowers and freshen up Stell" he tells the other before he gets out of bed and undress, he pulled out a pair of snug black jeans that were ripped at the knee and then a beige long sleeve with a wide cut collar and burgundy vans. He felt like he looked okay, cute and comfortable. "Are you done Stell?"

@ sugarplum.

"I'm sure it will be fun," Harry murmured to himself as he didn't really want to go out again but he knew Stella would get upset if he didn't, there must have been a reason why Liam only invited him out for dinner and not all the lads. "I just go out," He replied simply as he did go out, "I do have other mates you know." He teased but he kind of did, he'd call Blaise a friend and he liked all the wolves that work in the tattoo studio. But he left it at that, "I need to piss before we go." He stated as he rolled himself off the couch and walked to the bathroom, once he had finished and washed his hands he stepped into his room. He decided to only freshen up a little, he changed his shirt and pulled on a pair of black boots. However he left the hat off and went back into the living room, "Just tell me when we need to go." He told Liam as he sat back down on the couch, he crossed his leg over his knee. Really the sooner he left with Liam to head over to the restaurant, the sooner he could order some food and eat.
-
Stella sprayed a little bit of her favourite perfume onto her skin before she was done, "I'm ready." She walked out and saw Blaise had also changed, "Aren't you looking all cute." She smiled widely as Blaise did look really nice, she grabbed her bag and her keys. "Let's go," She left the apartment, locking it on her way out. She walked over to where her crappy car was and climbed inside, she was saving up to buy a better car but it was taking her a long time. Starting the engine, Stella pulled out and drove towards where the restaurant was. They listened to some music on the drive and it wasn't long before she was parking her car and climbing out, she didn't see Liam's car yet but she knew she wouldn't be far away. "Let's go inside and get a table," She told Blaise before stepping through the front door, she told the waiter that there would be four people and they were given a table off to the side. Stella quickly sent Liam a message to let him know where they were sitting, "This is nice." She looked at Blaise and hoped he would behave nicely.

@ weapon

Liam rolled his eyes affectionately, of course Harry had other friends. Liam wasn't even sure what he had been thinking! It had just been weird, one day Harry spent most of his time at home or with the lads and the next he was gone for the weirdest hours of the day, sometimes leaving in the mornings and coming home at the afternoon, other times he came home and then left, and sometimes he'd leave at night and come home ridiculous hours. He was probably hanging with Taylor or something. Getting off of the couch Liam checked his phone to see the time before he whistled, "Time to go mate" he tells the other before he gives Niall a wave and a promise to bring back some pasta. Walking out to the cars he decides that they could go with his since he knew he still had gas. "Nice blouse Harry, is it a new one?" Liam asks, amused by the pattern and color. Liam would never be brave enough for that sort of out there patterns and clothing. Turning the engine on Liam backed out his spot and got onto the road. It didn't take long at all for them to arrive, he could see Stella's car parked and decided to park close to it. Checking his phone he smile and didn't reply,seeing as he was right outside. "Thanks for coming Mate, to be honest this is a set up, but I think Stella is right, you'll like this guy, give him a try Ha, please"

---

Blaise was tempted to change into a burgundy short sleeve in case he felt a little too hot but decided not too when grabbed her bag and keys, signalling she was done and ready to go. The ride to the restaurant was chill, he spent most of it thinking of the food that could possible be sold at the restaurant, and how good it could be. Once inside Blaise took a seat and sighed, hoping that they wouldn't have to wait too long because he is starving and a little annoyed because he just got out of work and although he had fun with Harry the morning had been dreadful. "Yeah, and it smells like baked bread" Blaise said with a sigh, it smelled so good inside of the restaurant. His back was turned to the front entrance as he leaned forward and rest one of his elbows on the table and then placed his chin in his hand,"I hope they have some really good Pizza here, " he mumbles more to himself.

Harry rolled his eyes, "It is a new shirt actually and I love it." He defended his style in fashion, which could be a little strange which he would willingly admit. But he loved all his clothing and that is what mattered, once at the restaurant he followed Liam inside. "I knew Stella was up to something," He knew it, she was trying to set him up yet again but he couldn't be mad at her. She was just trying and it was sweet of her, but it could be annoying at times. "Fine I'll give it a go, but I'm not promising anything." He told Liam as he followed his mate through the restaurant, he spotted Stella and her friend sitting at the table. So he took a seat at the table while Stella was introducing them, looking up his breath got caught in his throat when his eyes landed on Blaise. This was Stella's friend? Blaise was the guy that she was trying to set him up with, Harry couldn't believe it and honestly knew he was staring but he couldn't help it.
-
Stella did love the smell of freshly baked bread, "It does smell amazing in here." She smiled widely when her eyes landed on Liam and Harry, she leaned up slightly when Liam leaned down to kiss her lips. "Hi" She looked at him before she remembered they weren't alone, "Blaise this is Harry. Harry this is my bestie Blaise," She smiled as she watched Harry sit down on a chair at the table, she looked at Blaise to make sure he was still okay with this. Not much was said between the two which did really worry Stella, that was until the waiter stepped over with menus and handed one to each other them. Stella decided to order a diet coke for a drink to start off, before she opened the menu and begun to look through what was on offer. "They have so much to chose from," She stated as she glanced between Blaise and Harry when Harry finally spoke, although he just said a quiet 'hi' which wasn't at all like him. Usually he wouldn't shut up once he got talking.

@ weapon

Blaise was actually getting a little irritated of waiting, he was known for having very little patience if they were to be honest. When Liam walked over Blaise spared him a short smile before his eyes landed on Harry? Quirking a brow up Blaise gave Harry a curious look before shifting in his sit a bit, feeling uncomfortable. He couldn't believe Stella thought Harry of all people in this town, in this world would be a good match for him. If this could even get more awful, it wouldn't feel right batting his lashes at Harry and calling him gorgeous right now, in front of Stella and Liam and it was because it was a personal only Harry and Blaise thing, it was their private way of communicating with one another and it just didn't sit well with Blaise if he did it in front of the other two because he fucking knows it would sound like he and Harry have a thing with one another, something more than the usual quick fuck because one, they haven't fucked yet, and two, they're domesticated in the strangest way. Blaise instead opens his menu and looks at the pizza options as he ordered a lemonade.
-
Liam smiles into the gentle kiss before he takes a seat by Stella and smiles, waiting for the connection between the two to spark but clearly nothing was sparking between the fucking two because Harry was sat still with his deep voice oddly quiet and Blaise wasn't even trying to eye up Harry. Liam frowned as he glanced from those two faces to Stella, wondering how nothing is happening? Liam had really thought Stella was going to be right about the two, but it seemed that something wasn't clicking. Clearing his throat Liam opened up his new and ordered himself a coke soda to drink. "Pretty nice restaurant right? Niall always raves about it" Liam days trying to cut through the air because it just felt weird between all of them and he really didn't like it. Maybe it was just that the two didn't know each other and it could be weird coming into a dinner and not knowing someone very well. It will pass, Liam's sure o it, mostly, well somewhat. "Thinking about the Alfredo spaghetti, sounds really good "

Harry was having a tough time getting his mind wrapped around the idea that Blaise, his Blaise that he flirted with all the time and spend most of his time with, was sitting right there and he was friends with Stella. The world could really be small when things like this happened, but he knew they couldn't act like they normally did with each other. If they had been alone, then yes, Harry would be right back at flirting with him. But Liam and Stella were there and he didn't want them to think there was anything between himself and Blaise, there wasn't as all they have done if talk and flirt. A little touch or wink here and there, but that was as far as it has gone. Harry ordered himself a coke soda as well before looking at the menu, "Alfredo sounds good." He murmured to Liam but his eyes were drawn to the pizzas, he could go for some comfort food right now and the Meat Lover pizza was calling out to him. Things seemed to be dragging on already for Harry as he waited for the waiter to bring their drinks over, but when he did they all ordered the food they wanted.
-
Stella had been certain that Blaise and Harry would at least make a friendship over dinner, but nothing was happening. They weren't talking and they certainly weren't even looking at each other, it deflated Stella a lot more than she had been expecting. The look that she sent Liam was one of sadness, like she had just witnessed someone kick a puppy. She knew she couldn't do anymore but she still didn't want the night to be ruined, when waiter took their orders she ordered the Beef Lasagna. Sipping her diet soda she reached under the table for Liam's hand, finding his fingers she held them in her own in hopes that she would feel better. It only helped a little bit but he was still there with her in all of this, "So... Harry you have some tattoos, Blaise works in a tattoo shop." She started off in hopes she could help them out, she looked at Blaise and gave him the same look that she had given Liam. It was beginning to feel awkward which Stella wouldn't let happen, they all deserved to have a nice dinner out with friends even if Blaise refused to talk to Harry.

This really wasn't going to work out, he couldn't' see it happening, nor did he want too? Honestly Blaise wasn't too sure but this feeling in his gut wasn't good and it was terrifying him. They weren't suppose to meet in these sort of circumstances. They were suppose to see each other at the cafe as usual, Blaise was suppose to smile secretively at Harry and the other would have flirted with him shamelessly. This here, them together, it felt too personal, being together at table, 'dinner' with their friends-Stella thinking that they would be a match. Blaise really hated it because he knew they could be cute together, that they would fit and that was his biggest fear, finding that perfect someone and it was this big, goofy, adorable guy who wore the stupidest shirts and had the most gorgeous smile. Blaise ordered himself a six cheese pizza before he got up ad excused himself quickly, heading out to the back and around the corner and into the bathroom which was for one person. Inside Blaise groaned and kicked the wall angrily. Taking out his phone he sent Harry a text, long ago having stored the others number there but only texted him once and that was months ago. Come to the bathroom, don't be bloody suspicious.

---

Liam lightened up when Stella's hand reached for his under the table, something so gentle and intimate between the two. Stella always had such a good effect on him, before they even were dating she cheered him up and made his insides tingle. He trusted that the dinner would go better than the way it started because Stella was dedicated and devoted and he knew she wasn't going to let it end like this, and neither was Liam, they were gonna do this together."Oh yeah! Didn't you get a tat a little while back Haz? Maybe you've gone to that shop before, they're really nice there, they've done the words on my wrist" Liam informs the other, ordering himself some lasagna instead and then some spaghetti for on the go so he could give it to Niall. When Blaise excused himself Liam squeezed Stella's small hand,"Sorry Haz, I promise he isn't like this normally right Stell?" Liam urges, turning over to Stella and nudging her cheek with his nose,"Stella has great taste in friends"

@ sugarplum.

It was obvious to Harry that Blaise was uncomfortable with being there, it was much to personal and Harry wouldn't it admit it but he wasn't comfortable with this either. He really enjoyed the time he spent with Blaise, it was the reason he never told the lads where he went all the time. He wanted to keep Blaise to himself, this was another part of his life that no one needed to know about and he'd rather keep it that way. "Yeah, I've been there for a tat but it was during the day." He didn't want to completely lie to Stella and Liam, but he still didn't want them finding out that he did indeed know Blaise. He would have normally watched the other walk away but not this time, it honestly felt a little strange to him but then his phone buzzed. He read the message and waited a few moments, "I'll be right back. I need another piss," He told Liam mainly as he stood up and walked towards the bathroom, he checked the hallway before he stepped into the bathroom. "I wouldn't have come tonight, if I knew you were Stella's friend." He looked at Blaise, everything seemed to formal and just plain weird and Harry wasn't used to this.
-
Stella looked at Harry, "He's never usually like this. I thought you two would hit it off," She watched Harry left for the bathroom and turned to look at Liam, "They hate each other. Liam, this isn't meant to be happening like this. How do I fix it?" She looked at him with her big eyes, she was overreacting a little bit but that is how she felt. She felt like this dinner was going to be a horrible night, she had been so excited and so sure of herself that tonight was going to work but it was going to be a failure. She continued to hold onto Liam's hand as it was keeping her together, she just wanted to give up and let the boys go home. They weren't even trying to talk or start a conversation, "There's no point in them even staying. You were right, I shouldn't play match maker. I was wrong, they won't be friends." She looked down as she did feel sad, she also felt bad that she put Blaise and Harry through this as it had been all her idea.

@ weapon

Blaise waited a little anxiously in the bathroom, hoping that Harry would read the text and listen. When the door opened Blaise felt the air get thinner, warmer even and it felt better when he looked up at Harry, his heart pattering harshly in his chest. "That's a bit rude, sounds like would don't really want to take me out like you've offered before" Blaise teases, automatically falling back into the habit and he couldn't stop himself from smiling, small and bashful. In front of Liam and Stella it had been horrible, but here in private made him feels tons more comfortable. "Sorry Haz, it just feels weird. Like if I'd known this was going to happen I would have just taken you up on your previous offer" Blaise told the other, stepping forward and into Harry's personal space,"Stella's wrong yeah? We're not a good match, it doesn't mean anything" he murmurs, pressing his lips against Harry's and feeling a shudder down his spine. Stella's right and Blaise is completely indenial but he isn't going to admit it.

---

"Stella don't think so badly of it alright, maybe it's just weird for them" Liam encourages him, cupping her cheek with his other hand and brushing his lips against her with gentle, feather like motions. He felt bad that Stella's plan didn't go so well, but they weren't able to read other peoples minds and something what they thought would happen didn't and that's fine. Things happen and they'll learn from this. "It'll be okay love, maybe it'll take them some time? I kinda suspect Harry already has someone, he's always going out for the longest hours in the day and he never tells anyone of the lads where too, and you know how Blaise is, he isn't interested in committed relationships babe, he's probably just taken back. You've done a really good thing here, you had the best interest in your heart" And it counts for something, he knows Stella just wanted her best friend to be happy. Liam caresses her cheek, sighing as he gives her another kiss,"We could offer them an out, if they really don't want to be here" he offers.

@ sugarplum.

Harry felt his body relax once the bathroom door was shut behind him, he rolled his eyes at Blaise. "You know what I mean, Liam only told me that this was a set up when we got here." He explained before sending the other a charming smirk, "I still want to take you out. But I'd much rather have you all to myself when I do," This cheekiness quickly shone in his green eyes as he looked at Blaise, "My offer will always be there for you." He softened his deep voice as he watched Blaise, his eyes closed when warm soft lips were placed over his. He had been imagining how it would feel to kiss Blaise, but now that it was actually happening the feeling were far more intense than what Harry had expected. "Yeah, Stella's right." He murmured as he rested his hands on Blaise's hips and gently pulled his body even closer to his, his lips finding his for another kiss that he was desperate to have again. He wasn't expecting to feel this way, to feel like that is where he belonged and where he needed to be. However he didn't want to believe it so he pushed all of those feelings and thoughts to the back of his head, "How about we at least try? I'm sure the food will be great and it'll make Stell happy," He breathed out heavily as he felt like he was floating on the clouds.

Stella looked at Liam and nodded her head lightly, "Okay. I guess if Harry is already interested in someone, then this would be awkward for him." She admitted but smiled as she kissed Liam's lips each time, "I'll let them leave if that's what they feel comfortable doing." She agreed with him as she only wanted Blaise and Harry to be comfortable, she also wanted them both to be happy but they could find happiness on their own. "I just wanted them to have what we do," She smiled at him warmly as she moved to kiss the palm of his hand, "I hope the food doesn't take much longer. I'm getting hungry," She easily changed the subject as she was feeling a little better about the dinner now, Liam always did know the right things to say to her no matter how she was feeling. "We'll have to bring all the guys here next time," She knew they would all love that as no one had to cook and clean up, she leaned closer and kissed his lips again as she couldn't get enough of his lips.

Blaise sighed against Harry's lips, infatuated with the taste as he pressed his body against the others and slid one of his hands into Harry's long curly hair. He could definitely kiss Harry for an hour straight, or two or even three hours, god, he felt like he couldn't get tired of Harry's lips even if he wanted too. They fit against one another so easily, Blaise filling in the space with his body and pushing up on his toes to kiss Harry heatedly, feverish and filled with want. Harry had a good idea, going back to eat the food and please both of their friends but Blaise couldn't help but desire something else. Pulling back from the kiss Blaise started to suck on Harry's neck, gently nipping his skin as he slotted his thigh between Harry's legs ,"Wish we could just head to mines, you could fuck me into the mattress" Blaise whispers lewdly, wishing this was at least the bathroom in his apartment rather than the one in the restaurant.

"It'll be alright Stell, who knows, maybe they'll fall in love by the end of the date" Liam jokes, trying to make light of the situation even though he was it was a bit of a downer, he couldn't do anything about it though. He couldn't force those two to fall in love just to please Stella's inner match maker. "I think they'll stay, who wants to miss out on really good food anyways? I don't think it'll hurt to have at least one awkward date or dinner in your lifetime" Liam frowned as he glanced over to the back of the restaurant, he couldn't see the actual doors to the restrooms because they were blocked by a corridor but it'd been like three minutes. Turning back Liam focuses on Stella instead, "I think Niall would love that the very most" Liam quips up with a nod,"This place better be as good as he had been talking about,"

A deep groan sounded in Harry's throat when Blaise's lips moved to his neck, "Get outside. I'll deal with them," He whispered hotly as he didn't need to be asked again, he used a hand to bring Blaise's chin closer to him once again. He kissed him deeply and let his teeth drag over Blaise's bottom lip before he pulled back, otherwise he would turn him around and take him right there instead of going home with him. He knew how to quickly make an exit from the 'friendly' dinner, he held the door open for Blaise before he walked back over to the table where Liam and Stella were waiting. "I pissed him off and now I have to fucking take him home, like I even want to." He rolled his eyes in hopes his friends would believe him and not ask any questions, he felt relief wash over him when Stella handed him the keys to her car. "Thanks Stell, I'll see you two later." He quickly walked off before anything else could be said, he walked over to where Blaise was waiting and didn't waste any time in driving them to the apartment.

Stella smiled at Liam, "They might. We never know," She chuckled softly and nodded lightly, "I hope they stay but I never know with Blaise. I won't be surprised if he did want to go home," It had happened before and she was sure it would happen again, "He would and I'm sure the food will be amazing. It smells so good in here," She looked at Liam but suddenly she noticed Blaise, but he was heading towards the front door. She watched as Harry walked over to them and she sighed as she handed her keys over to him, "I knew Blaise wasn't in the mood for this. He had the early shift this morning and that always makes him grumpy afterwards," She watched Harry leave the restaurant, "I guess we can take their food home." She suggested as she looked at Liam, "But this could be a date now. We might as well enjoy this night," She wasn't going to leave just because Blaise didn't want to be there.
