The smell of homemade hotcakes, scrambled eggs, with a hint of bacon suddenly inhales through my nostrils as I fully wake up.

Turning my head to the right side of the king sized bed, I realize Adam still lays sound asleep.

Stretching out for a few minutes while I still lay inside the warm, thick blankets, my eyes wander all around the welcoming room.

After a few minutes of just noticing everything around the bedroom, I finally pull myself out from under the covers and walk into the restroom.

I sit on the toilet and take a quiet piss. Afterwards, I take my clothes off and step into the shower. While scrubbing myself with a very good smelling soap, I hum out my favorite Taylor Swift song.

The door creaks slowly as Adam walks in straight towards the toilet.

"Good morning honey." He turns to stare at me through the glass that separates the shower with the rest of the bathroom.

"Good morning darling." I smile over at him as I massage shampoo into my hair.

"How did you sleep last night?" Adam walks over to the sink and begins brushing his teeth.

"Like a baby, and you?" I giggle softly and focus back on rinsing off the soap.

"Same, that bed is very comfortable!" He stares at me through the mirror and points towards the bedroom.

"I know, I didn't want to get out of it earlier." I finally rinse myself and turn off the running water.

"We need to get one like that." He beams out while spitting the toothpaste.

"Oh my God yes!" I agree as I pull a fluffy towel from a rack beside the shower.

"Everything in this house is warm and welcoming!" I add as I feel the warm towel wrapped around my body.

"Mother sure knows how to make guests feel like at home." Adam turns to face me as I dry my hair with another towel.

"I seriously love her." I beam out as I step in front of the sink beside Adam.

"You'll love her more once you try breakfast." He kisses my lips.

"It does smell great." Beginning to brush my own teeth, I try to make out a smile while brushing them.

"Well get changed and we'll head downstairs." Adam playfully slaps my ass and leaves the restroom.

I change into black jeans with a black and white striped V neck shirt. Leaving my hair to dry loose, I pick up my white, furry boots from my luggage and put them on. Spraying myself a small tint of perfume, I then add a little deodorant.

"Let's go." Adam says and I follow him out of the door and down the flight of stairs.

He stands beside me and once we step into the kitchen, Gemma sits around the large kitchen table. A blonde girl sits beside her. Gemma then watches us and her face quickly lightens up.

"Hey good morning!" She smiles widely.

Harry and another boy sit across from Gemma and the blonde girl. The boy quickly looks up to examine us, but he quickly gets up once he recognizes Adam. Harry doesn't budge to even pick his head up.

"Adam it's so good to see you." The boy walks over to Adam and pulls him into an embrace.

"It's good to see you as well Louis, it's been quite a while." Adam replies as they finally pull back.

"It really has." He adds. Gemma gets up from her seat and pulls the blonde girl up with her.

They quickly make it to us and Gemma hugs me tightly.

"Louis, Lottie..this is my sister-in-law, Emma. Adam's wife!" She squeals in excitement while staring at me in amusement.

The boy Louis, stares at me a bit confused, meanwhile the blondie Lottie quickly pulls me into a hug.

"Gemma won't shut up about you!" She says, making me giggle and awe at Gemma.

"It's nice meeting you Emma, congratulations to the two of you." Louis politely pulls me into a hug, which leads me to have to stare over at Harry.

He's staring straight at me or at  Louis, I'm really not sure. I add a hint-full smile, but he only looks away.

"I'm Adam's, Gemma and Harry's cousin by the way, and this is my sister Lottie." He finally clears the family connection.

"It's a pleasure to meet you both." I smile at the two of them.

"Hello lovebirds! Feeling hungry at all?" Anne walks into the kitchen through the other entrance, which is connected to the larger living room.

"Yeah of course mom!" Adam replies. Gemma and her cousin Lottie, grab both of my arms and pull me to sit with them.

Meanwhile, Louis and Adam walk towards the other side. I am seated in between Lottie and Gemma, leaving me to face no other but Harry.

"Are you a stylist Emma?" Gemma asks as she turns over to face me.

"No." I smile over at her.

"I seriously thought you were when you arrived." She beams out, her eyes widening while a smile spreads from cheek to cheek.

"Oh no! The only thing I'm good at is being dumb." I blurt making them laugh, but the one to capture my attention is Harry.

He let's out a loud laugh, making me turn over to stare at him. His smile is wide and deep dimples carve into his cheeks. Quickly looking away, I turn back to Gemma.

"You'd do a great job in the department!" She suggests.

"Why is that?" I ask her a bit confused.

"Because you've got style. That type of stylist style." Anne then places a plate in front of each one of us.

"Thanks, I've never heard that one before. Thank you Anne." I add as she serves Gemma.

"You should consider it." Gemma studies my face with wonder. I notice her smile has quite something that connects with Harry's smile.

"..and you should consider allowing Emma to eat her breakfast peacefully!" Anne speaks up, making me laugh.

"You're right mum, I'm sorry." She turns over to her plate and begins eating.

--

After breakfast, I help Anne wash the dishes. Gemma and Lottie pick up the trash and put away what's still useful.

Adam disappears into the living room with Louis, while Harry goes the opposite way.

Once we're done cleaning up, I step into the living room in search of Adam, but he's nowhere in sight.

Deciding to check upstairs, I climb up the large stairs. Reaching the last step, I bump into someone's hard chest.

"Oh, I'm sorry I wasn't looking up." I apologize once it meet eyes with Harry.

"It's what you're good at anyways." He bluntly states.

He steps aside and jogs down the stairs. I turn my head back to stare at him in shock for him being so bitchy. What is his problem?

He pulls his jacket off of the hanger on the side and walks out.

What does he mean? It's what you're good at anyways. Bumping into him? If that's what he meant, well it's pretty obvious since we are staying under the same roof. Besides, last night I didn't really bump into him.

Making my way towards the bedroom we're sleeping in, I step inside, but still no sign of Adam. I check the whole room and the restroom, but nothing.

Walking back out, I bump into Lottie.

"Hey, are you looking for someone? You look lost." She giggles.

"Yeah, I can't find Adam." I chuckle under my breath.

"Oh, he and Louis left to pick up his dad." She explains.

"Okay thanks." I turn back and re-enter the bedroom.

"Emma, I was wondering if you'd like to help us prepare the cookies for Christmas Eve tonight?" She stops me.

"Yeah sure, I'd love to!" I turn back to her and accept the invitation.

"Great, I'll see you at 7 sharp inside the kitchen. Gemma, you and I will be very busy." Lottie squeals in excitement.

"I'm sure of it." I giggle at her bubbly and lovely persona.

"Lottie, there you are! Hello girls...have either one of you seen Gemma?" Anne takes a deep breath as she pushes herself up the last stair.

"No, I just bumped into Emma, who was in search of Adam, but I told her he went to pick up his dad." Lottie is very quick to explain herself.

"Oh that girl, wonder where she's at!" Anne walks over to us.

"Can you do me a huge favor Emma?" She smiles at me.

"Yes, what do you need?" I glance at her shyly.

"Do you drive?"

"Mmhmm." I shake my head yes.

"Oh great! Can you please drive to the store quickly and pick up a few groceries for me?" Anne pulls out a piece of paper from the front, right hand pocket of her dark blue jeans.

"Of course.....just a small problem..where's the store?" I chuckle nervously under my breath.

"I know where it is, I'll go with you!" Lottie quickly wraps her fingers around my arm and gestures for me to start walking.

"Thank you sweetheart!" Anne speaks up as Lottie pulls me down the stairs.

"No problem Anne." I beam back, before Lottie already has Adam's car keys in her hold and pushes the door open.

"You're fast." I laugh as she hands me the keys once we reach the car.

"Fast is my middle name." She screams it out as she steps funny towards the passenger side.

"I like it." I joke around as we hop inside. Turning on the engine, I pull out of the driveway and get out the same way we came in yesterday.

"Can I?" Lottie points at the radio.

"Go ahead, I don't know where the good stations are here anyways." Saying nothing but the truth, she laughs.

"You're lucky to have me here then, because I do."

We find out that we both have the same taste in music. She gives me directions to the store and finally, we arrive after five minutes.

Hopping out of the car, I check out the small store that doesn't even have a name. It seems like a family dollar to me, but maybe it's not.

Lottie walks in before me. I notice the cashier quickly glance over at me with a wide smile. Pulling out the folded paper, I search for the things in order.

"Two gallons of milk." I whisper under my breath as I walk towards the freezers in the back of the store.

Lottie stands by an employee door besides the fridges. Her ear connected to the door. Once I place the milk gallons in the grocery car, I make my way towards her.

"What are you doing?" I ask her, scrunching my brows. She suddenly jumps in freight and turns to me.

"Shhh, look listen closely!" She whisper/yells while grabbing my face and bringing it to the door.

A few moans are heard from behind the door.

"Eww, why are you listening to that Lottie?" I chuckle and push myself away.

"Who fucks in a store?" She gags and finally moves to stand beside the cart, which is parked a foot away to the left side of the employees door.

"Who casually listens to that?" I retort back, making Lottie stick her tongue out at me.

"Anywayssss! Do you need help?" She changes the subject.

"Yes I really do in fact." I smirk at her, but suddenly feel a hard smack on my skull, making me fall forward.

"Oww!" I whine, while Lottie pulls me up.

"Oh my Goodness! I'm am so sorry, I didn't mean to hit you." A girl my height that has dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes quickly stands in front of me.

"Are you okay?" She examines my face carefully.

"Wow, I should've expected that." Lottie quickly captures my attention as she points behind me.

Turning my head back, I find Harry standing there.

"Shut the fuck up Lottie, what are you doing here?" He ignores the fact that I stand right in front of him and walks over to Lottie.

"What's your name?" I notice the girl in front of me ask.

"Emma." I reply as I massage my sore head.

"Okay Emma, I'm Camely. I work here with my brother and I'm so sorry for hitting you like that! Do you want some ice?" She asks with concern.

"Yes please, and don't worry. I shouldn't have stood there." I giggle, but then stop because my head starts pounding.

"Okay okay! Veronica!!!" Camely screams right beside my ear, making a worse headache.

"Sit here." She pulls a chair out through the employees door.

"Are you okay Emma?" Lottie walks over to me as Camely hurriedly makes her way to the front of the store.

"Yeah, my head is just pounding really hard." I scrunch my eyes.

"Next time, move out of the way. It'll prevent you from getting a headache." Harry stares at me closely, while being a blunt bitch.

"It's not her fault your hoes don't know how to open a fucking door properly." Lottie replies in an angry tone.

"Look who's talking!" He smirks.

"Fuck you Harry!" She screams back.

"F.."

"That's enough!" I interrupt him and they both quickly turn to me.

My whole world starts spinning fast and then everything darkens.

"How hard did you hit her?" I hear a man's voice speak closely to my face. My eyes fly open, finding myself already laid down flat on the hard floor.

The blonde cashier sits on his knees beside me and quickly smiles once he sees my eyes open. Another girl with dark hair and a perfect tan sits on the other side.

Lottie carefully holds my head on her lap and my eyes catch Harry's tall frame standing by her. Camely stands right beside him.

"Hey, how are you feeling?" The blonde boy asks me.

"Better, I think." I smile up at him.

"You're such an idiot Cam!" The girl with the perfect tan blurts out at Camely.

"I know, I'm so sorry Emma!" Her eyes look glossy with water. She looks like she's on the verge of crying.

"It's okay, I'm better now. It was also my fault for standing so close to the door." I try to get up on my own, but the blonde boy and the tan girl quickly hold my hands and pull me up carefully.

"I'm Niall, the store owner. This is my co-worker Veronica and the face slammer is my sister." He introduces himself and the two girls, but I already met Camely.

"Nice to meet you all." I smile at them.

"We should go, it's late already." Lottie quickly speaks up.

"I still need to get the groceries." I look over at her.

"Oh you don't have to worry about that, we got it all set." Veronica smiles as she speaks.

"What time is it?" I ask any of them.

"It's almost six." Niall checks his phone.

"What? How long was I unconscious for?" My eyes widen in shock.

"Two hours." Lottie confirms.

"Let's get going now! Adam must be worried." I blurt.

"Okay, give me the keys." Lottie stops me as I try to walk away.

"You can't drive." I state firmly.

"I'm not, he is." She hands Harry the keys and he quickly walks out.

"Oh okay. Thank you for your help!" I turn over to thank Niall, Veronica and Camely.

"Sorry about that, I hope you want to come back again." Niall replies hopefully.

"She's married!" I hear Harry's voice scream from the door before he steps out.

"Umm yeah of course. Bye!" I turn away embarrassed.

I'm not trying to pretend to be single, or feel ashamed of being a married woman, but Harry didn't have to do that. What is his problem?

Sadly, I have to sit beside him in the car because Lottie thinks it's safer for me to be in the front.

I watch him from the corner of my eye as he drives focused. He glances a few times over to my side, but I decide to ignore him.

We arrive in ten minutes. Lottie gets off of the car, taking all the grocery bags with her. There's not a lot, but I would've needed help if I was the one carrying them.

I walk right behind Harry and he suddenly stops. Bumping into him, I quickly take a step back.

"Why were you stalking me?" He stares into my eyes intently.

"What?" I frown in confusion.

"I know you were standing behind the employees door listening." He states.

"I wasn't." I half lie, feeling very intimidated by his presence.

"I won't tell Adam you were stalking me, if you don't tell him about your accident." He threatens me.

"Why would I do that?" I reply, taking another step back.

"So you can avoid getting him to scream at me and have him not trust you for being unfaithful and stalking his brother." He beams out.

I walk around him, but his hand quickly snakes around my waist. He pulls me towards him, while his hand tightens around the small of my back.

"Emma, Harry?" Suddenly, a males voice speaks from behind Harry.
