Getting Them Together- Chapter 1
"Is this the hotel? It looks lovely guys, look" Miranda said looking amazed. The hotel in Thailand looked amazing, it had small buildings with typical Thailand decorations and furniture and there was also one big pool. Miranda couldn't enjoy her company more. She was with her best friends, Gary, Stevie, Clive and Tilly. Just the five of them, they had been dreaming of going on this trip to Thailand for so long and they were finally here.
"Yes, it looks amazing, oh my god, we're going to have so much fun here, can you believe it, we are finally here" Gary said.
"Yeah, it took us only 3 years, lovely." Clive said.
"Don't complain now Clive, you know it took some time to save" Stevie answered.
"I'm not complaining, just saying" Clive answered.
"Let me get the keys to our room" Gary said.
A few minutes later, they got their hotel room. It looked lovely, it was huge and had sea view. It had 3 bedrooms in it with 3 double beds, they had tried to book the room with 5 bedrooms but it was sold.
"So, who's sharing room with Miranda?" Gary asked.
"Not Me" Clive said.
"Me neither" Tilly said.
"Not Me, so I guess it'll be you Gary, congrats! You're getting Miss clapboobs." Stevie last said.
"WHAT? I DON'T DO THAT" Miranda said and looked away. "It happens all the time" she said to herself as she walked over to her bedroom and Gary followed her.
"So, this won't be that bad right? We're just friends who are going to share a bed, it's alright" Gary said and watched out of the sea awkwardly.
"Right, just friends. Just like always." Miranda said and leered on Gary.
"What?"
"No, nothing."
In the other room.
"So, do you think they know we're setting them up? I mean it's obvious that they are in love, so it's our job to get them together on this trip, alright guys?" Stevie said.
"Yes, how long have it taken them? 14 years? What a waste of time." Tilly said.
"So, we need a plan, Clive, you can talk to Gary about his feelings for Miranda and Tilly and I will talk to Miranda." Stevie said.
"Must I?, Alright, I'll do it, I'll talk to him after dinner"
They were paying their bill after sharing a delicious meal. They had made their selves comfortable at the hotel and it was finally time for their talks.
"So, what are we doing now?" Gary asked.
"Uhm why don't you guys go hang around in the bar while Miranda, Tilly and I is taking a walk on the beach and we'll join you later?" Stevie said. Miranda realized how Gary made a question look on his face.
"Don't you worry Gary, no one's making as amazing drinks as you" Miranda said winking to Gary.
"See you later girls" Clive said almost dragging Gary away from them. The girls started walking down to the beach.
"What was all that about? Why couldn't the guys join us on the walk?" Miranda asked curiously.
"Even if you want to spend as much time with Gary as you can, we have to talk to you. Don't worry, Clive will make sure there isn't hundreds of girls on him when you get back" Stevie teased.
"What? Gary and I are only friends, you know that.. Neither of us is having feelings for the other" Miranda said.
"Yeah sure, are you really sure about that Miranda?" Tilly asked.
"Ofcourse, I've moved on and I'm sure he has too." Miranda said.
"Miranda, look me in the eyes and swear you're not having feelings for Gary" Stevie said. Miranda looked Stevie in the eyes and said:
"I'm not having feelings for Gary"
"Alright, but don't be so sure he hasn't…" Stevie said.
"He hasn't" Miranda said.
"Alright" Stevie said.
They walked back to the bar and found Clive and Gary sitting there talking and laughing with two women. Stevie and Tilly could see how Miranda's smile went away as she saw them.
"Hey guys, what's happening? Who are these girls?" Stevie asked when they came up to them.
"Uhm, this is Rose, and this is Maria" Gary said.
Stevie and Tilly were shaking hands with them and telling them their names but Miranda just said hi. Both of the girls were beautiful, Rose had brown curly hair and was that type of a girl that many boys dreamed of. Maria was blonde, pretty and had straight long hair. The evening continued, Gary had laid eyes on Rose and they were flirting like crazy. Miranda was about to go mad, of course she still had feelings for Gary but it was always so confusing for them. She hated seeing Gary flirting with other women. Miranda just sat there beside Tilly and gazed down on her drink, until Gary asked Rose to dance and she had had enough.
"You know what guys, I'm very tired, I think I'm going to go up to our hotel room and I'll see you all in the morning" Miranda said watching Gary and Rose dancing as she left.
A half hour later, Miranda heard the door open to their apartment. She wondered whether to fake sleeping or not but decided not to.
"Miranda?" She heard Garys voice. Was he alone up here?
"I'm in here" Miranda said and wiped away her tears. She saw Gary at door as he sat down beside her on the bed.
"Have you been crying?" He asked.
"No, just tired and you know I'm always teary when I'm tired."
"Are you sure that's the thing?"
"Yeah, totally sure, what are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to check if you were alright, it's only 9 a clock, and won't you come down a little bit more?"
"No, I'm really tired and you seemed pretty busy down there anyway."
"So that's what this is about? Me and Rose? Why didn't you just say that? You know no one is more important than you, I could just have backed off."
"I don't know, I just wanted you to have fun"
"Really? But I'm having more fun with you than anyone, you silly, please come down with me so we can dance" Miranda got a big smile on her face and all that she thought about was that he couldn't be more adorable.
"Alright, is Rose still there? Because I really don't want to get in between the two of you, you never knows what could happen."
"Yes she is but forget her, tonight it's only about you and me" Gary said as he grabbed her hand and they walked down together.
