Who ever said running a café was easy!

Chapter 26 – So near to those words…

"Thank you…" She trailed off as the gap between them became smaller. Their breaths mingled together, their arms curled around each other, before their gazes locked and their lips touched. It was mind blowing, the raw emotion and heated passion that flowed between them, as their kisses became more urgent. Harmony shuddered as cold air ran up her spine; before she pressed closer to Tala, which was soon followed by a feral growl.

"OI LOVE BIRDS!" Ian's voice carried to their ears. Harmony pulled back gently but not out of his arms.

"What's wrong?" Tala asked, panting slightly, as his grip around her tightened.

"Ian's calling." Harmony replied softly, after she had licked her lips, which earned a laugh from Tala.

"We had better get moving then." Tala answered smoothly, not bothering to move his arm from her waist, as he started walking. Harmony had made no movement though.

"Don't make me drag you." Tala stated loudly, spurring her into movement.

'Oh my god…' She thought, her heart was still pounding against her chest and her thoughts were completely mixed up. 'I don't like him in that way… did I?' Was thought that dominated her mind the most.

"Earth to Harmony." Tala voice spoke into her ear, earning a small shiver from her.

"Harmony is not available at the moment, if you'd like to leave a message she'll get back to you." Harmony replied; her eyes shone with amused. Tala gave her an unamused look before he shook his head.

"Glad to see you regained your warped sense of humour." Tala replied drolly, only to receive a slight glare from her.

"I'm not WARPED!" Harmony whined, sounding like a defiant ten-year-old.

"You're right…" Tala answered, "You're mental." He added cheekily, sprinting forward to avoid her half-hearted slaps.

"I AM NOT!" She shrieked, chasing a laughing Tala down the road, as he remained just out of her reach. Lengthening his stride, he put more a safer distance between them, so:

He wouldn't lose his face.

Just to piss her off.

They finally reached the café, panting, leaning heavily against the doorframe. Tala looked up to her gaze, and then they started laughing. Tala leant against the wall, clutching his ribs, while Harmony doubled up, in a silent fit of laughter. Bryan and Spencer just swapped confused looks before trying to stop them laughing, but to no avail.

"I… can't… breathe!" Harmony cried, between laughs, wiping away the tears of laughter, taking a deep breath she managed to stop laughing, until her gaze fell on Tala, and then she burst into laughter. Bryan raised an eyebrow, earning a fresh zeal of laughter from the two teens. After another few minutes of laughing, Tala and Harmony finally stopped, but it took another few hours to stop the two from sniggering. Bryan slammed the living room, making the house rattle, in an attempt to stop the sniggers. Ian entered smirking broadly, which only earned a risen eyebrow from Harmony and Tala. Ian's smirk broadened if that was possible, as he showed them a little digital picture… of them making out! Tala's cheeks nearly turned as red as his hair, while Harmony stood there, god-smacked.

"And I'm gonna post it on the Internet too." Ian cackled, making a break for the door.

"DIE YOU LITTLE MAGGOT!" Tala bellowed, chasing Ian out of the living room.

"SAVE ME SOME!" Harmony yelled, dashing out of the door after Tala and the-to-be-dead Ian. Spencer and Bryan deadpanned,

"How did Ian get a picture?" Bryan asked Spencer, who merely shrugged.

"No idea." Spencer replied, shifting on the sofa as the yells, insults and threats echoed.

"I've gotta see this…" Bryan smirked, disappearing out of the door.
