Maria's POV

  I divert my eyes away from Niall's to find Louis Tomlinson kissing Bhumi! They break apart and I see both of them have a surprised look plastered on their faces. Bhumi changes her look by applying a small smile. She leans in, eyes half closed. Louis closes his eyes and leans in too. Bhumi's eyes flash open, she grabs Louis cereal bowl and runs off yelling maniaclly.

  "MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! THIS IS MINE NOWW!!"  Bhumi runs down the hallway and into the bathroom, I think.

   "NOOOOO! MY CEREAL! GIVE IT BACK I WASN'T DONE!" Louis runs after her, pouting.

   From the corner of my eye I see Niall still looking at me. I look back at him and he lends me a hand to climb out of the cupboard. I stand, stretch my legs, and go back to staring at Niall. He has his back to me and is heating something in the microwave. I continue to stare and Niall turns around holding two plates of pasta with meatballs.

   "Follow me." Niall walks past me toward the table Bhumi and Louis just left from.

  I follow him and he nods to the chair across from him. I sit and he pushes one of the plates to me. I stare at it dumbly and he clears his throught. I look up and see that Niall is holding a fork at me. I take it and reply in the quietest whisper I ever made,

   "Thank you."

   "Er, um, so your name is Maria?" Niall stutters. I nod my head and twirl the fork in the middle of the pasta plate.

   "Um, do you have siblings?" I shake my head and eat the pasta off the fork.

Niall : "It's okay. I have an awesome older brother named Greg."

   I nod my head, and lick the sauce that is on my lips.

Niall : "So, um, do you own any pets?"

  I pause and drop the fork.

     Shit.

   I get up from the chair quickly and run to one of the rooms in a hallway. I jog into the first room and pull my purple dufflebag out from underneath. I open it and a white furball attacks me. I giggle and hug the furball tightly to my chest. The furball is my Pomerainian puppy, Snowflake. I look into the bag and see that the food I put in a special bowl was eaten. I hear footsteps and look up. Niall is standing in the doorway. He has an eyebrow up, I look down and hug Snowflake. Snowflake jumps out of my arms and scurries to Niall.

  She yipps at him and he laughs. I turn around and whistle. Snowflake comes back to me and settles down in my lap.

    "That is one adorable puppy. What is its name?" Niall comes and sits next to me.

   "Her name is Snowflake. She is the only pup that survived with me." I mumble, a tear rolling down my cheek. Niall swips the tear away, making me look at him.

   "What do you mean the only pup that survived?" he asks concern in his eyes.

    "Well, one night I wake up to the smell of smoke and burning. I wake up in an instant and run into the kitchen. I find the stove, some cabinets, and some flowers on fire. I call for my 3 dogs so we can all leave the house. My two older dogs, Shephie my German Shephard and Goldie my Golden Retriever, were the only ones that came. I didn't see my Snowflake anywhere. I bought her 2 days before the fire so I don't think she responded to me that well." I feel tears forming in my eyes.

   "So Shephie being the caring dog out of all runs upstairs to find Snowflake. In a few seconds she comes bounding down the stairs with Snowflake in her mouth motherly. She gently placed Snowflake down on the ground and I scooped her up." This time more than one tear fell down my cheek.

   "We were soo close to safety outside. I open the door and run outside. I hear a howl and turn around to find that Shephie wasn't with me. Goldie couldn't leave her best friend behind so she bounded back to the burning house. I called and called for her to come back but she didn't listen to me. There was and small explosion and I knew that the stove exploaded. I lost my two dogs that I practically grew up with. They were so nice and helped me with stress and stuff. I miss them soo much."

   I can't help it anymore. I start bawling and bawling. Arms envelope me and I don't care who it is I just lean against them and hug Snowflake tightly.

   "Shhhhh. It's okay. It's okay." Niall rubs my back, calming me down. I stop crying, only sniffles now, and glance and Niall's adorable face. He smiles down at me, showing his braces. I smile back a closed-mouth smile and let go of Snowflake. She licks my face and bounds away through the door and down the hall.

   "Snowflake? Come back!" I yell. I get up and both me and Niall walk to a room where we hear Snowflake's yipps.

   "Heyy! Snowflake! Long time no see!" A familiar voice coos. I enter the room to find Layla giggling and Snowflake sitting in the lap of a boy with curly brown hair.

     Hold on it can't be!

   "Harry?" I ask stepping slowlly into the bedroom.

   The boy looks up and I find myself staring into the familiar green eyes.

   "Maria? Is that really you?"
