Taylor

Harry got out of the hospital a week ago after Austin's concerns about Harry. Every time Austin would come. He and Harry were suddenly......close to each other. They were talking and laughing. Heck they even played soccer together. It was kind of a shock to me. Knowing my brother who once hated Harry then suddenly being close to him with a snap of a finger. I don't know what Harry said or did but I think they'd been good friends since then.

The sound of laughter and the door opening and closing brought me out of my reverie. Austin and Harry walked in the kitchen where I've been busy baking cookies for everyone who was coming before our last night of being a free woman and man which is tonight. The boys laughter died down as they both saw me looking at them with raised brows. They stifled a laugh before opening the fridge and pulling out two bottles of water for him and Harry after their intense soccer play at the backyard.

"Whats got you two so giggly like two teenage girls gossiping about a heartthrob in school, huh?" I asked, looking at them teasingly while mixing the ingredients of my chocolate cookies. "Oh. Nothing much. Just guy stuff." Harry said grinning at me and I smile back before rolling my eyes at them and continuing baking. Ever since the talk with Austin outside Harrys room last week made me think twice about forgiving and giving a second chance to Harry. So since then, we were close but theres still that awkward moment when were holding hands and giving pecks on cheeks with our family around. Dad was happy as well as Des even mom and Anne but Gemma not so much. She was still as awkward as Harry and I.

Arms circling around my waist and a body pressed from behind broke me once again from my thoughts. Giving me a peck on my cheek, I felt the sweaty hair on the side of my neck. "Harry!" I turned around and smack him with a rolling pin at his arm and glared at him as he mocked hurt and pouted while rubbing the part where I hit him. "Aww...is someone mad because I hit him with a rolling pin?" I said jokingly as Harry glared at me and still pouting before giving me another peck on the cheek. Rolling my eyes and shaking my head at his immature way with Austin rolling on the ground booming with laughter as Harry and I soon joined in with my hilarious of a brother.

After finishing up the bottles of water. Harry and Austin headed for a shower so they could head straight to the bar with Louis and their other mutual friends. Nodding at them as I finished baking the cookies.

Hours later. The cookies were done and the girls were here to help me get ready. Since this is the last night of being a free woman before getting married the next day. Yes, I'm getting married to the man having fun at a private club with my brother and cousin who's probably already having fun and partying like theres no tomorrow but knowing Harry, he would be busy with work and maintaing being my husband since we don't want anyone knowing that this is an arrange marriage. Selena, Gigi, Karlie, Abigail, Jamie, Lena, Hayley and Cara are chatting and sitting around me in the master bedroom. With Selena doing my hair and Abigail and Karlie picking out a dress for me. The rest were either helping out or gossiping about the new hottie in town who Selena says she had a met in a bar downtown. Smiling and laughing at my friends. I couldn't help but think that I wouldn't be me without them. That I wouldn't survived from heartache without this people who I call my unofficial sisters.

As Selena finished doing my hair. I started doing my make up while trying to catch up from the story of Karlie meeting a guy, James or Josh was the name I think but I was too caught up by doing my make up that I didn't listen to their conversations at hand.

Being the best friend she is, Abigail looked at me with questioning and concern eyes and said, "Are you alright, Tay?" Karlie stopped mid-way and all girls were looking at me and I just smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I'm fine. What made you think I'm not?" I laughed awkwardly and continued applying my lipstick. They looked at me for a second or two. Jamie was about to say something when Selena cut her off and cleared her throat and change the subject. Knowing that if I say anything about what I'm feeling right now, our last night wouldn't be as fun as we thought it would be. "So...ladies. We have to finish up and head up to the club to celebrate Taylor's last day of being a free woman." Selena said and everyone cheered, I looked at Selena and mouthed a silent 'thank you' as she smiled and nodded at me.

Soon we were off to the club. Partying and downing shots until something happened that mostly ruined our...well night.
