I screwed my eyes shut, and knocked loudly. No one be home, please, no one be home. I chanted to myself.

“Lia?” Dana’s timid voice echoed through my mind, and I slightly pried open one eye.

“Hi.” I simply stated, and I cursed at myself for not saying something more heartfelt, but her arms wrapped around my neck, and she tightly hugged me.

“I’ve missed you so much, and you totally deserted me the day I saw you a few months back, and now you’re here, and …” She paused holding me at arms length. “I’m glad you’re back” She smiled, hugging me lightly again.

“ZAI LOOK WHO’S HERE.” She yelled, and the thump of feet, I knew I was in for an encounter. Sliding from one side of the door, to the center, her eyes widened and she practically sprinted on top of me.

“YOU BITCH YOU CAME BACK!” She screeched, and as I thought the encounter couldn’t get any worse, two heads popped out of a room. Zayn, and Harry.







Dana’s quick glance, and Harry’s bulged out eyes, made my hopeful forgiveness, that much more awkward.

“Come.” She held my hand, guiding me into the room next to the kitchen.

“I had hope, and ordered a dress in your size, just in case you decided to come to the wedding.” She handed over the dress, and looked at me with big puppy dog eyes.

“I wouldn’t miss it for the world.” I smile, and hold my index finger up before she speaks. Laying down the dress on a nearby chair, I hold up the bags of items I had bought.

“You bought a shit load of bags.” Zai remarks, and I simply smile.

“This bag.” I hold up. “ Is for your wedding day. Don’t you dare open it, or I swear I will kick you, but remember to open it the day after your wedding…This is for Zayn… and I already dropped off the boys and the girls presents beforehand. This is for Harry, since he moved, and I had no idea where he moved too. This is for you Zai, and this is the present I meant to give you before the fame happened. I hope you accept.” I offer the last bag over to Dana.

Hesitantly, Zai eyes down the bag, and its reminants. Her eyes glaze over her gift, and she shoots up to hug me in a air constricting embrace.

“I’VE WANTED THESE, BUT WANG TOLD ME HE DIDN’T HAVE ANY MORE LEFT. OH I LOVE YOU SOME MUCH” She kissed my cheek, and sat down admiring her one of a kind Wang L.E. bag. Dana eagerly opened her bag, and found a Balenciaga bag she had wanted awhile back, but never got it due to it’s high price.

“You! You! Didn’t” She clapped her hands excitedly, as I motioned for her to open the reminants. Zai unknowingly opened hers to find cute items they’ve always wanted tucked away in every possible nook and cranny of the bag. Alas, Dana spotted the white envelope, and opened it to reveal her two front row, VIP passes to see One Direction in NYC in a few weeks.

“YOU TOLD ME YOU NEVER GOT THESE! Of course I’ll go!” She jumped up and down, running over to hug me tightly.

“This is like the birthday presents I’ve never received all in one day.” Zai remarked.

“Mhmm…before I forget, try on the dress, and see if it fits. Just in case there’s some last minute tailoring.” She motioned towards the dress, and I quickly slipped it on, hooking the top of the dress, before doing a slight swirl for both of them.

“Looks okay?” BRIDESMAID DRESS

“Lookin gooooood.” Zai smirked.

“Hey babe, we were wondering if you’d like to come out, and stop hiding out in that room. Yeah?”

“Zayn’s presents!” I quickly grab Zayn, and add Harry’s present alongside his, while running into the living room. Picking up the ends of the dress, I make it in without tripping, and hug Zayn in a tight embrace.

“Sorry for acting like a bitch” I pressed, while he hugged me back.

“I know it was a hard time, we all have em. Right?” He smiled, but I knew that he directed that to the looming figure behind me. I could feel his eyes behind me, but I continued my apology.

“I got you this.” I held up the bag, and in it held the new Nike release that I knew Zayn had made a tweet about wanting, a new sketch pad, and a $200 Visa gift card with a message say ‘hope this is enough for some more supplies x.”. His eyes light up at all the presents, as well as the gift card, and he hugged me tightly with one arm, admiring the new Nike’s with the next.

“This is amazing Lia, can’t believe you spent the time, and knew what I wanted. This is wow, wicked, I needed more supplies too. Thanks so much.” He smiled back.

My heart began to race, as I knew the last big bag I was holding was Harry’s. Afraid of what he would think of me buying him a present, I was debating whether to give it to him or not…but as soon as I turned around, his glare wasn’t one you could miss. Propped against he wall, he watched me from afar, as I walked over to him. His expression very confused as to what I was doing. Just hold up the bag, and say I got this for you.

“I..I got these for you.” I spoke timidly, holding up the large bag.

For him of course, I got Black Timberlands, along with a Saint Laurent Jacket, and a few mid-length scarves for his bandana obsession. His lips once pressed into a hard line, slightly faltered as he noticed, I remembered some of the things I either promised him, or he wanted. Still searching he had found the letter, I had hand written to him. I had thought that writing a letter, would be far simpler than going through the struggle of having to personally say it to his face.

His brows furrowed together as he tried to open it. My hand immediately flew to his.

“Y-you..um. I think it’s b-better if you um read this when you’re alone.” His eyes automatically shot from my face to my hands that were placed on his, and so did mine. Withdrawing my hand faster than lightening, I muster up a small laugh, before scurrying off to the girls who’s eyes were fixated on our whole encounter. Even Zayn had stopped what he was doing.

“I-I uh. I’m gonna change. Call me for fitting’s and stuff, and yea I have a lot of stuff to do you know, LOADS. Missed a lot while gone. Okay.” I blurted out, and nervously laughed before jolting into the room where my clothes laid. Faster than a quick change artist, I wiggled myself out of my dress, and into my outfit, before jetting out of the room.

“Bye, see you whenever.” I waved back at the three sitting on the island, while they all shot me confused looks. Three? Wonder if Harry left. I thought to myself before colliding into a strong chest.

“Shit.” I curse falling backwards, as the figure tumbles down with me. Looking up into their face, I notice it’s the one and only. Harry. My eyes glued onto his, I gulp loudly before realizing, we were having a staring contest. But it wasn’t the staring contest that was awkward it was him still laying on top of me, while having a staring contest. Waking myself from the daze, I quickly slide myself from beneath him, and bolt out of the apartment, feverishly pressing the elevator button to escape.

Realizing that I had made it, safely into my car, I let out a sigh of relief as my head fell back onto the seat. No more seeing them until the wedding. I smiled to myself at the thought of being alone with my merry self for two more days, until I would have to endure biting my tongue throughout a ceremony.
