No Matter How Hard I Try

~Ali's POV~

I woke up with a pounding headache. I slowly opened my eyes, letting them adjust to the light shining in through the large glass doors. This isn't my new house... Where am I? I felt arms around my waist so I looked over to see a sleeping Liam, snoring lightly and mouth slightly agape. The events from the previous night came rushing back. We went clubbing, I got drunk and Liam brought me home and we passed out on the bed. Nothing bad happened, and I let out a sigh of relief.

I carefully untangled myself from Liam's arms and stood up, stretching my stiff muscles. I was still in my party dress so I walked to Liam's closet and pulled out a pair of sweats and a t-shirt. Going into the bath room and changing, i looked at myself in the mirror. I was a mess. My hair was everywhere and my makeup was majorly smudged. So I washed off all my makeup and threw my hair into a messy bun. Just as I was about to crawl back into the bed my stomach growled and I realized I was hungry.

when I got into the kitchen I admired how clean Liam kept it. The counters were clean and the marble was shiny. The sink was free of dishes and everything was neat and tidy. Rummaging through his cupboard I found sugar and cinnamon. In the fridge I found the eggs and milk. Grabbing the bread, I started making some French toast. I cracked the eggs and added milk, whipping them together. I then added cinnamon and sugar to it to give it a sweet flavor. I turned the stove too on and started cooking.

I was just finishing when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Liam walked into the kitchen as I set out a plate for him. "I made breakfast," I told him with a smile.

"this looks delicious Ali, you didn't have to do that!" He looked at the food on his plate. I made scrambled eggs and bacon to go along with the French toast, and the coffee was just finishing. He walked to the fridge and brought out a bottle. It said syrup on it and he put it on his French toast. I grabbed some food and sat down with him. Taking a bite out of my French toast I made a weird face. Liam burst out laughing. I just sat there and looked at him. This syrup was so weird!

"What's the matter, do you not like your own cooking?" He asked with a laugh.

"No, it's not that, it's this syrup! It's so weird!" He looked at me weird this time.

"It's normal syrup, what are you talking about?" This time I laughed.

"Don't forget I'm not from here! Where I'm from the syrup is so much better! We make it ourselves, it's maple!" I told him.

"Better than this? Now that's something I need to try!"

"I'll get you all some next time I go home. Vermont maple syrup is the best in the America." Just then there was a knock in the door. Liam got up to go answer it. And I continued eating. I heard Liam talking but I couldn't make out what he was saying. Just then I heard a shout.

"I SMELL SOMETHING DELICIOUS!" And Harry came bursting into the kitchen. He looked at me quizzically then Liam walked in and harry gave him a confused look.

"Get some food Harold, then we can talk over breakfast," Liam told him. Harry's eyes brightened And he loaded a plate up. He sat down next to me. And started eating. Then he really looked at me.

"umm why are you wearing Liam's clothes?? He asked kind of skeptically. "And wait, did you make this? Cause it's delicious and Liam can't cook for shit!"

"Take it easy there killer," I told him with a smirk on my face. "Yes I made breakfast, and thank you, even though your syrup taste like shit. And I crashed here last night cause I was so drunk so I'm wearing them so I'm not sitting here in my club dress.

"Oh, okay, as long as you didn't have sex with Liam," he stated and I choked on my eggs a bit. "I'll take that as a no you didn't," he laughed. Liam was just sitting there looking at me and eating his food as harry and I talked. I finished and then washed my plate. Harry did the same and then Liam.

"Ooh let's watch Toy Story!" Liam shouted like a little kid.

"YES! I LOVE THAT MOVIE!" I yelled back, jumping excitedly. They laughed at me and we went into the living room,,popping the movie in. We enjoyed a nice relaxing day at Liam's house chatting and watching movies.
