"Harry!" Camely smacks his back, shaking her head in disapproval towards his attitude.

"Don't worry Harry, it's not like you make her scream much anyways." I decide to finally stand up to him and come up with a good comeback.

"I bet Adam can make me moan louder than you can make her." He suddenly turns his head to me.

"Wow Emma, didn't know you had so much spirit in you." He replies, full of sarcasm.

"I'm glad you can see it." Arching up a brow, he only winks and finally pulls Camely with him out of view.

Asshole! I am so glad I sort of stood up for myself. I was honestly really trying my hardest to be nice and respectful towards him, but he just seems to be begging for it.

"Good one!" Zayn's voice appears from behind.

"Oh, I'm sorry...I didn't think anyone was listening." My cheeks redden in embarrassment.

"Don't worry. He can be a dick, and you did good in telling him that." He takes a seat on the wooden trunk by the stairs.

"Isn't this your first time meeting him?" I decide to make conversation with the pretty eyed boy while I set up the other side of the stairs.

"Who Harry?" He frowns.

"Yeah." Twisting the christmas lights around the hand holder, I slightly turn to him.

"He's my best friend Emma. We've known each other since we were ten." He chuckles.

"Oh wow, wait but...didn't you arrive with Geoff and Liam?" Scrunching my brows together, I await for his response stopping my actions.

"Yeah, they gave me a ride here since I live near them." He explains.

"I used to live next door, but then my family decided to move." Zayn scratches his skull.

"So are you friends at all with Liam?" Continuing my occupation, I remain silent.

"Umm, yah...I guess you can call us that." He answers a bit uncertain.

"Okay.." I trail off.

"How's it being married to Adam?" Zayn questions, in a confusing tone.

"It's great, why?"

"Oh no, he just looks really happy! Don't think I'm judgmental or some shit like that. It's none of my business to be telling people how to live their life." Zayn gives me a bit of confidence. Even though he is very handsome, and you'd expect him to be a bitch; he's something I've never quite seen. Almost as if you can trust him.

"You're the first person I've met to be that honest." I reply in all honesty.

"Hah, thanks but I'm just saying what I really think."

"I think me and you will get along just fine Zayn." Finishing the last touches to the decorations, I take the empty box inside my hands.

"I'm glad to hear that Emma." He smiles. I notice his tongue stop right behind his teeth.

"I will let you do whatever you gotta do, I'm gonna shower." He dismisses himself and jogs up the stairs.

Didn't Anne say all the boys left to get a Christmas tree together? Why is Zayn here then, and the rest aren't?

Making my way back into the living room, my eyes widen. I begin to admire Lottie's work.

"I'll have to assume I did a great job from the look on your face." She speaks up after putting the music volume down.

"Wow, this place looks so beautiful Lottie." I carefully watch how she set up the red socks by the chimney.

Christmas lights around the window frame. The couches now covered with some christmas lining, giving them holiday spirit.

"Let's see yours!" She smiles widely and walks beside me.

"OMG! Dude, my auntie has been trying to set it up like this for two christmas' already. She's gonna love it!" Lottie high fives me.

"Let's get the kitchen done now." She pulls me by the arm with her.

Once we've fully accomplished what Anne left us to do, Lottie pulls out cookies and milk from the fridge. We sit face to face on the stools around the counter and begin eating cookies.

"I know this is a really weird question and awkward, but do you and Adam..do it?" A piece of cookie gets stuck in my throat and I quickly cough it out.

"Lottie!" I chuckle after taking a sip of the milk.

"What?! I'm curious." She jumps up and down on her seat.

"Do I have to answer that?" I frown, with a sly smile.

"Yes!" Lottie eyes me with some sort of curiosity.

"Yes we do." I look down at my cookie in embarrassment.

"Can he?" She frowns once again.

"Oh my God Lottie, well he's not a hundred years old." I chuckle shaking my head.

"I'm sorry, I'm weird." Lottie begins laughing and I quickly join her.

Footsteps down the stairs make us both shut our mouths. We try and not stare at each other or we'll end up laughing again.

Zayn then walks into the kitchen and sits beside me.

"What are you guys doing?" He stares at me, then over at Lottie.

"Just eating cookies." Lottie answers, stuffing her mouth.

"Malik, let's go." Harry steps into the kitchen, walking straight towards the fridge.

Camely follows behind, but stops at the edge of the counter.

"Where?" I watch Zayn glance over at Camely, who keeps her head down.

"Don't ask mate." Harry pulls out a gallon of orange juice and sips a lot.

"What's your name?" Zayn speaks up to Camely.

"Camely." Her cheeks redden, but she finally makes eye contact with him.

"Cool, I like it." I watch him wink at her.

"Thank you, I like your too. It's very unique." She quickly makes conversation.

"Lottie, tell Louis to meet me up at the green at twelve." Harry speaks in a low voice, but I can hear him.

"Harry!" She turns over to him, rolling her eyes.

"Just do it." He then steps away, completely avoiding me.

"Let's go Zayn!" Harry screams back as he pulls Camely out of the kitchen.

"I'll see you ladies later." Zayn dismisses himself once again.

"What's the green?" I waste no time in asking Lottie once I hear the front door close.

"Umm...okay I'll tell you only if you promise me not to tell anyone." Lottie's expression changes from fun to serious quick.

"I promise." I admit.

"The green is sort of like a strip club up this forestry hill." She explains.

"Oh is there something wrong with that place?" I quickly ask my next question.

"No, why?" Lottie frowns.

"Well you seem sort of unsure when Harry told you to tell Louis to go there."

"I just don't like how Harry changes Louis and Zayn. I mean, I can care less about what Zayn does or stops doing, but Louis is my brother. You get me?" She seems very concerned of her brother.

"I don't have any siblings, but I understand." Giving her a little assurance, she quickly smiles.

--

The men arrive much later and fifteen minutes later, Anne and Gemma arrive with an older woman. She is very nice to me and congratulates Adam and I. Lottie decides to go to bed before everyone.

I help Gemma set up the the christmas tree after dinner, meanwhile Anne and her mother clean up the kitchen.

Anne did give me like fifty kisses for creating the Christmas stair style she had been craving to see for a while.

Harry and Zayn haven't showed up yet since this afternoon.

Late at night, when we plan what to cook for tomorrow since it'll be Christmas Eve, everyone heads off to bed.

"Did you have a good day babe?" Adam wraps his arms around me, making me feel warmer under the covers.

"Yes, it was really fun decorating the house, and you?" Shifting my body a bit sideways, I stare at him as the moonlight shines through the large window.

"We cut off the best tree we found. Louis hurt his hands pretty bad." He chuckles under his breath.

"I saw that." Giving his hands a light squeeze, he smiles.

"I'm glad you're happy to be here love." He pecks my lips.

"I'm so happy you brought me here Adam." Squeezing myself more into his arms, he does the same.

"I love you Emma." His voice becomes low as he grows tired.

"I love you too." I whisper and plant a small kiss on his forehead.

Adam quickly falls asleep. His hold gets a little loose once he's fully asleep. I watch the glowing clock by the bed. I can't seem to fall asleep. Closing my eyes, I imagine drifting off to sleep, but suddenly open them again.

I realize it's already two in the morning. Groaning at myself, I hop off of the bed and walk out of the room. If I want to go to sleep, I need a cup of water.

Stepping softly, trying not to wake anyone up, I walk down the stairs and into the kitchen.

I search for a cup in the dark and finally find one. Filling it up, I then open the fridge, which gladly lights up at least something.

"What's with you and water?" Harry's deep voice startles me that I have to cover my mouth so I don't scream.

"You scared me!" I whisper/yell at him.

"You didn't see me sitting here?" He points at the stool beside his legs.

"No." I turn my back on him and pull out two pieces of ice.

"First time you're not stalking me." He answers.

"I never do." I admit, picking up my cup full of water and throwing the ice in it.

"You thinking you're that important is a difference from me actually doing something like that." I giggle softly.

Harry moves towards me quite fast, making me bump into the cabinet.

"You're quite feisty today Emma." He whispers, bringing his face near mine.

"I like it." His breath hits my face because of how close he is to me. It smells like cigarette and a hint of mint gum.

"Move!" I turn my head sideways, because it couldn't be more intimidating how close he is.

"Harry, please! What do you want?" I try to push him away, but I'm not strong enough to make him move. Not even an inch.

"You wanna know what I want Emma?" He smirks and I finally meet my eyes with his.
