Million Dollar Man [H.E.S]

Lights Up

Harry's POV

I look at the girl standing at the other side of the door and ask mum what the fuck she is doing here, i can see that Lana is a little bit uncomfortable and winces as i say her name quite harshly but i don't care right now beacuse now i know that both mum and Gemma picked her up at the airport yesterday and they all looked like a happy family without me.

Gemma walks over to Lana and throws her arm around her shoulder before saying,

"Eliza here is my bestfriend"

"Eliza?"

"yes Eliza, that's her name"

"what no? her name is Lana"

Lana looks at me before saying,

"my real name is Elizabeth Grant"

"oh, well i prefer Lana, i've got to say that Elizabeth sounds like a grandma's name"

Lana looks down at her feet and one second later i feel a slap at the back of my head, i turn my head to the left and see my mother giving me a harsh glare before walking inside with Lana and Gemma on either side of her.

I stand there and stare at the door for a few seconds and think about what the fuck just happend before i walk inside and set my bags by the stairs, i hang my coat up before walking around trying to find the others.
As i walk into the livingroom i notice two big dogs laying on the couch sleeping, i'm about to approach the dogs but Lana walks into the livingroom with two leashes for the dogs.

She puts the leashes on before she wakes the dogs up, she looks up at me before looking down again and making her way to the door and walk outside.

"what the fuck do you think you're doing?"

I turn around and see a fuming Gemma, to be honest i'm quite scared of her when she's mad.

"what?"

"why do you have to be so mean to Eliza?"

"i'm not mean, i'm just wondering why Lana is here"

"first of all don't call her Lana beacuse her parents called her that and they passed away a couple months ago, second of all she is my bestfriend so thats why she's here"

"oh"

"yeah, oh"

She turns around and walks towards the stairs again, i sigh before i decide to unpack my things before i take a walk.

After all my things are unpacked i go downstairs again and put on my coat and take my keys and wallet before i walk out of the door, walking around the streets of Homes Chapel brings back so many memories from when i was younger and from when Liam, Niall, Louis and Zayn came here for the first time.

As i'm walking i notice two big dogs outside of the bakery that i used to work in, maybe i should pay Barbara a visit and buy some bread or something for mum. Yeah, i should do that.

The closer i get to the bakery the more i notice that the dogs are quite familiar, walk up to the door and see Barbara talking to Lan- Eliza.

I walk inside and shout in a not so loud voice

"BARBARA"

Both Barbara and La- Eliza turn around.

"HARRY"

She says something to Eliza before walking around the counter and gives me a big hug, over her shoulder i see Eliza walking over to a table in the corner and watching the dogs from the window.

I talk to Barbara for about 10 minutes before i decide to buy something, i get some bread and pay but not before putting a hundred dollar bill into the tip jar without Barbara noticing.

"have a great day sweetheart"

"you too Barbara"

As i turn around i see Eliza still sitting at the table, i walk over to the table and pull out the chair opposite of Eliza. She turns her gaze from the dogs to me before looking at me like i have a bird on my head.

"i'm sorry"

She looks at me like she just heard me say that i'm pregnant.

"why?"

"i shouldn't have talked to you the way i did"

"it's okay"

"no, it's not okay"

I smile at her and she actually smiles back, i really think she has a beautiful smile but she'll never know.
