"Oh look I'm Harley and I stomp when I'm mad" Adam says from behind me in a deep voice. Stomping behind me.

"Go away Adam" I smirk and give a little smirk, I make sure not to stomp as I go down the last few steps.

"There it is" he says ceasing stomping as he walks down behind me, we get to the bottom and he quickly dashes past me and walks in front of me backwards.

"There's what?" I ask unfolding my arms and raising an eyebrow, he shrugs and smiles. Oh how I've missed that smile "Your laugh" he says before turning around and walking into the dining room.

"That was not a laugh that was a smirk" I state, desperately trying to defend myself.

"I'm pretty sure I know the difference and that was a smirk" he states, pulling his signature smirk.

A smile etches its way onto mums face as she looks between Adam and I, I roll my eyes and take a seat next to Adam and all eyes flick to us, including the very confused ones of Tyler.

"Mr Jones is just up in the bathroom" I say awkwardly and Adam sniggers from beside me, I look at him and raise an eyebrow a slight smile on my face "What?"

"Nothing, I just find it cute when your shy" he says quietly and I go bright red, shoulder barging him, he goes sideways and falls off the chair and I burst out laughing, before shoving his feet off the chair and shuffling into his chair.

Then I realise I could've almost dislocated his shoulder, but wait it doesn't really matter, Mr Jones is a Doctor.

"Friends?" I raise my eyebrow looking down at him and laughing, he holds up a hand as if to shake on it. I hold my hand out and grab his, and Adam being Adam, pulls me down and I go flying over the chair and landing smack on his chest.

"Now we can be friends. Because we're even" he smirks and we both burst out laughing for a good five minutes with everybody looking at us.

"You guys done?" I hear for the second time tonight as Mr Jones comes down the stairs, I look up and Adam and I both say at the same time "Of course" we look at each other and share a look, before laughing again.

"Dinners ready- what are you doing on the ground. Don't hurt the poor boy please" mum say setting the lasagne and Shepard's pie on the table. I turn to look at her as if to say 'what me? Never'.

"Do you guys plan on eating tonight?" she ask taking a seat at the head of the table and I see Mr and Mrs Jones sitting next to each other on the other side.

"Why wouldn't we?" I ask mum and turn back to Adam confused, he smiles and gestures at the both of us and the position we're in "Your kind of straddling me" he says smirking.

I leap off Adam and look at everybody, blushing profusely "Well this is awkward..." I mutter and slowly take a seat, looking down at Adam. He's leaning back on his elbows, smirk on his face as he looks up at me.

"Get up you idiot" I say down at him and his smirk turns into a fully-fledged grin "No I think I like it down here, girls keep falling on me" he nods and pats the ground.

"You know you're coming of as slightly insane right?" I smirk and he nods "Well I'm not the only one, you look like you're talking to the ground" he pushes himself up off the floor and I laugh as his face goes red, from a blood rush.

"Oookaayy" mum says looking at me concerned, I ignore the stares I'm getting from The Joneses and glare at Adam. He holds his hands up in surrender "What? If I look like an idiot then you have to, too" he states, tearing his gaze from mine and looking around the table expectantly.

"Well, now that's sorted, let's eat!" mum says handing out dishes and conversation starts up among all of the people at the table with Sarah and Mum arguing over which bakery makes the best cream puffs, Tyler and his dad talking about whether or not he should play le cross instead of football, and then there's me and Adam, just chilling.
