Gotta be you... because nobody compares

hats, cold shoulders, and a phone call

---Adelaide's POV---

The boys and I went home soon after the fangirling incident at the zoo. One girl stole Harry's cap, so we had to get him another hat. It was a hat in the shape of a tiger's head. Of course, if one person had a tiger hat, everyone wanted an animal head shaped hat. Harry had his tiger hat, Louis had a giraffe hat, Zayn had a panda hat, Niall had a lion hat, Liam had a monkey hat. My brother said he wanted to match Liam, so he too got a monkey hat. I had to take a picture of THAT! haha I took a picture of the boys, then one of Liam with Matty. I laughed at how they looked. They were silly. 

Once home, everybody was tired from the heat. I guess the boys weren't really used to this hot weather. My brother fell asleep on the way home. Liam carried him to his bed. He placed the stuffed monkey he bought him by his pillow. 

"you're brother is an amazing person" Liam whispered. 

"Yeah, He really is" Liam looked into my eyes. He leaned in for a soft kiss. I kissed him back just as softly. "You are an amazing person as well" he said before kissing my forehead.

All five of the boys went to go take a nap. Me and my mom stayed up and chatted for a good hour.

"So Adelaide.."

"Yes mother?" I asked... I knew what she wanted to ask.

"Which one of the boys do you like?" she winked... I knew it.

"Well... I met Liam first, and we've kinda been close ever since. Harry and I got really close too... but he kinda got a girlfriend.. so it didn't escalate further." 

"Well sweety, we never know what might happen"

"I know mom. I just don't want to rush into anything."

"I know sweety. Well, I'm gonna go to the groceries, 5 extra growing boys in my house... I'm gonna have to do alot of cooking" I laughed as she walked out the door. I stayed in the living room watching television. My eyes were slowly drooping shut from how tired I was. I felt a tap on my shoulder. Looking up I saw that it was Harry. I smiled at him.

"Can we talk?" he looked so sad. I nodded my head. We stepped outside of my house, so that we wouldn't wake any of the boys. 

"What's wrong Harry?" I asked, sitting on the porch swing that was just outside the door.

"I can't stop thinking about you Kitten, I see you with Liam and it just drives me bananas!" He loudly whispered.

"Harry, you have Samantha. This isn't up for discussion."

"No... I don't.." I looked at him shocked. What was he trying to say?? "I broke it off with her, I told her I was in love with someone else. AND I know you hate that word but I can't help it Kitten, I love you. I love you, I love YOU!" He grabbed my face between his hands and pressed his lips against mine. I was too shocked to push away. His cologne was strong, but I liked it. His lips felt like silk, they were so soft. After what seemed like minutes, though it was only a few seconds, he pulled away. Staring straight into my eyes. He leaned his forehead against mine. 

"You don't have to say anything right now. Just promise me you'll think about it" his breath heavy against my neck as he hugged me. There was no way I could NOT think about this. Ugh this was so confusing. 

We walked into the house and I went to go check on Matty while Harry went to go take a quick shower. Matty wasn't in bed. Instead, him and Liam were in the living room, watching toy story. It was only seven in the afternoon, so there was no need for Matty to go back to sleep.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Addy, Me and Liam got bored so we're watching Toy Story" 

"Oh really? Liam, can I talk to you outside for a bit."
