Sienna POV

It is the morning of Ezra's birthday and I am setting up breakfast for him.

He requested pancakes, eggs, and bacon with orange juice so that is what I am currently making. As I am in the kitchen, my parents are in the sun room with the party planner going over last minute details before the decorators come in, in an hour. 

I was told the Styles family will be joining breakfast too, which I expected so I am glad I am making a lot of food. 

Ellie covered my shift today so I could have the day off, which I was appreciative of. I really do like to spend Ezra's birthday home, because I try to make it as special as possible for him as his sister.

"It smells so yummy in here," I hear my brothers voice say from the doorway. 

I look over to where is small body is standing and smile. "Well thank you," I say. "Are you excited for your party?" I ask.

"Yeah, all my friends are gonna be here." He says with happiness. "When will Harry be over?" Ezra asks while sitting at the island.

"Um," I pause. I wasn't expecting his question. "I think he might be coming over for breakfast," I say with a polite smile.

After our hug yesterday I am uncertain how I am supposed to feel. We didn't talk on the car ride home, and all I said was thank you when he pulled into the driveway. I am not expecting much after it though, nothing can really come out of three meaningless words if neither party wants to change. 

"Maybe I should go next door and ask if he is coming over and to the party," Ezra says while hopping off of the bar stool. 

"Do you want me to text him?" I offer instead.

"Would you mind?" He asks, giving me his pouting eyes. I chuckle by his adorableness and wash my hands at the sink.

"You really like having him around huh?" I ask while grabbing my phone on the counter.

"Yeah," Ezra says with a giggle. "He's like an older brother I never had." I feel like he's said that to me before.

Me: Are u coming to breakfast? Ezra wants to know.

"I texted him bud," I say to my brother who smiles as his answer. "Why don't you say good morning to Mom and Dad? They are in the sun room," I offer.

"Okay. Thank you for cooking breakfast Anna," He says while hugging my waist. My heart warms at his actions and I hug him back. My brother soon walks out of the kitchen just when Harry responds to my message. 

Harry: I know u want to see me n all . u don't have to use ur brother as an excuse.

Me: ha ha

Harry: yes I will b at breakfast. I got coverage on my shift today

Me: okay I will let him know 

I suddenly remember who probably took his shift -- Michelle. She hasn't been obviously rude towards me in a while, but I am wondering what her possible motives are or if there is any. 

I snap back into reality and finish cooking breakfast.

The Styles Family arrive around ten minutes after I texted Harry. Anne was happy to see me, she stated she feels like I am not around as much, which is true. 

Our parents are outside gardening before the decorators come and transform out backyard. Harry, Ezra and I are in the dining room talking.

"Are you excited for your drive in movie, Ezra?" Harry asks. I see my brothers light up in excitement by the thought of their movie date.
