Harry huffs as he sends Louis a final heart emoji before Louis has to go start his next concert. His concert is in London. Harry tried to fly out to London to catch the concert, but Simon said that Harry's album is too close to dropping for him to be leaving the country. 

'Harry Styles' the album drops on October 1, in six days. He's already sent a few of the CDs to his close family members and has kept a few for himself. Overall, it's been a pretty stressful job for him. He's nervous to see what the reaction will be from his audience. 

He's tried to get a wide range of musical styles and types, while also trying to maintain a certain sound. Harry's had loads of help from Simon throughout the album process.

"I ordered some Chinese," Eleanor calls. Harry puts his phone down and smiles as she joins him in the living room. Eleanor climbs into the spot on the sofa next to Harry and sets a bowl of popcorn in between them. 

"Thought you said you ordered Chinese," Harry teases. He grabs a handful of popcorn and eats it anyway. She rolls her eyes and turns the TV on.

"We can't have movie night without popcorn," Eleanor argues. Harry shrugs and continues to eat the popcorn. Eleanor slaps his hand away and takes the bowl away from him. "Don't eat it all before the movie starts," She snaps. Harry pouts and then takes his phone back out to play a game while he waits for the movie to start. 

A knock at the door interrupts the second movie preview. Harry raises an eyebrow in confusion. It seems way to fast for the Chinese to be there already, but he figures they could just be fast delivery. He's also not sure how many people are ordering Chinese at half past eight. 

Eleanor smirks as she gets up and opens the door. "Harry, it's for you," She calls. Harry huffs in annoyance and stands to join Eleanor at the door. He nearly drops his phone as he sees the person standing in the door way. 

They stand at nearly 5'6 with brown hair. Harry recognises them immediately after spending hours together at a time. Their eyes are large and very brown, a shade that compliments their paler skin. They stand tall, something Harry's still trying to master, giving off an aura of confidence. She's older than Harry, but not by a lot and just barely older than Louis. The girl wears a familiar smirk across her lips showcasing her full lips.

"Hi baby brother," Gemma announces. She opens her arms wide and takes a step into the home to bring Harry into a hug. After a moment of shock he returns the gesture and wraps his arms around his sister's neck. 

Honestly, it had been too long since he's seen Gemma. He figures the last time they saw each other was at Christmas. They send each other random texts sometimes, but they are admittedly not as close as they used to be. Harry blames himself since he lives in the States now. 

"How's it been," She asks. Eleanor steps aside so Gemma can drag her suitcase inside. After seeing her struggle, Harry helps her and pulls it the rest of the way in. 

"Why did you pack so heavy? Intend on staying long," He laughs. Gemma rolls her eyes and smacks him playfully. 

"The week at least. I intend on being here when your album drops. I figured I'd be a supportive big sister since it's your first," She answers nonchalantly. Harry knows that she'd still come if it was his second or third album too. They may not meet up much, but they come together when things count. 

"Well I'm going to go pick up the Chinese and let you two catch up," Eleanor announces. She sends Harry a smile before picking up her car keys and leaving the two Styles' alone. Harry gestures for Gemma to sit. 

It's been a while since they've had the opportunity to sit down and talk to one another about their lives. Harry always finds it relaxing after telling everything to Gemma since they used to be so close. She used to be the only person Harry confided in, but now he has Louis and his other friends to talk to about things. 

"So tell me, what's Simon Cowell like," Gemma asks. She tucks a strand of brown hair behind her ear and makes herself comfortable. 

"He's... interesting. Very different than how he appears on the telly. He's more relaxed in real life and very professional. It's different, for sure," Harry explains. He doesn't know how else to describe Simon Cowell. 

"He seems like he'd be very professional. How's Louis doing? I don't get to see any photos of you two, so I forget half the time," Gemma complains. She hits Harry playfully. Harry blushes and looks down. 

"He's great. I think everything's going amazing considering all the time we don't get to spend together," Harry says. Gemma nods understandingly. She rests a hand on Harry's shoulder and gives him a sad smile. 

"How's Taylor Swift in real life? I have seen photos of you two a lot. It's strange to see you standing next to her and on these big time magazines. Tons of people follow me just to see if I'll post something about you, so I guess I have to thank you for the follower boost," Gemma laughs. 

A few months after Taylor and Harry had to go public, someone linked Harry and Gemma together. So, they're long-kept secret had been pried out. Neither minded too much in all honest. The only thing that angers Harry about being connected to his sister is the increased spam and hate Gemma gets on her page now. People flood Gemma's comment sections with questions about One Direction and other things that aren't related to her. He figures that must get annoying after a while. 

Eleanor returns a while later with a bag filled with warm Chinese. They split it evenly (Eleanor bought extra, knowing Gemma would be showing up). They relaxed together and watched a movie Eleanor found on Netflix. 

A calming night with two of Harry's favorite women.

Hey guys! I had to update early because I don't be able to update tomorrow, Friday, or Saturday and I figured you'd rather have a two day early update than a two day late update. You're welcome. I finally finished planning everything out for this book and I'm really excited for the ending! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed! ~B
