A Twisted Way to Save Someone (L.s)✔

Chapter 28 End

Harry's Pov

My heart pounded heavily as Louis went to get the door. I stood in the kitchen with everyone while we waited for my mum and sister to enter.

Everyone was so nice and welcoming to me and Louis. I honestly felt at ease and at home with these people. We've all came close already in such a few short hours. It was amazing.

Currently I was talking with Fizzy and Lottie when I heard her voice call out to me.

"Harry," I broke off from what I was talking about with Lottie and Fizzy, feeling myself tense at the sight of her voice. Everyone's conversation simmered down to low whispers and I didn't mind if they listened.

They have the right to.

I turned to be met with my older sister who's eyes widened as she took me in. From when I remembered her, she didn't change much except for her style and hair.

She eyed my chest and tattoos which shown through my sheer black long sleeve shirt. Her eyes trailed over me, eyeing from my hair to my feet.

"Gemma," I matched her tone in which she greeted me; emotionless. She hummed but didn't say anything else with the cross of her arms.

I felt anger build up inside of me but I shoved it away as my mum walked inside followed by Louis.

"Hey, Harry," She greeted me with a smile but I could she could feel the tension because it seemed forced. I gave her a nod and a small smile before she went over and greeted everyone else.

Louis was immediately by my side. "Are you alright?"

I sighed, keeping my voice low as his. "I am. I just... she doesn't seem very excited to be here. Or to see me."

He hummed in agreement. "We could always ask them to leave or we could leave?"

I shook my head at his offer. "I don't want to ruin this visit just because of them. I'm going to try and make it civil. But if anything does break out then, yeah we'll leave."

"I could tell my mum to ask them to if they start anything. She doesn't know everything that had happened but she knows that you guys aren't on good terms," Louis muttered, taking my hand. "She understands."

"I don't want to be much-" I started but I was cut off by Jay who overheard.

"You're not to much of a trouble, honey. If Gemma or even Anne start something, they can leave," Jay smiled at me sympathetically. "She is my friend but if she doesn't accept my son's husband then well."

She clicked her tongue. "You both have nothing to worry about."

She smiled at the both of us and we returned it before she walked towards the table.

"Ok, let's eat," she clapped her hands, picking her seat by Mark. Louis kissed me quickly on the cheek, pulling us to sit next to Lottie and Fizzy who sat next to Mark. Fizzy smiled as I sat down before quickly turning to finish her conversation with Lottie.

We all started to dig in as everyone sat around the big table. Immediately, many conversations filled the room of many different topics. The air was comforting and not at all tense.

I welcomed it and turned to Louis to include him in on a conversation about everything, even welcoming Fizzy and Lottie to listen to them about how they're interested in fashion.

Everyone was starting to finish all of their food and some conversations were dying down.

"The food was wonderful, Jay," my mum said suddenly, placing her napkin on her plate with a smile.
