Chapter 26

Stand Up

Em stared at the boys as if they were snakes (Em was terrified of snakes). She seemed frightened, to be honest, and that's what made me laugh. Em didn't seem to notice though and started backing away from the open door with hurried steps.

"I'm not going in there, Jess," she said and shook her head.

"C'mon, Em! They're not dangerous!" I laughed at her and grabbed her wrist before she could back away any further. Em didn't answer me. "Just trust me, okay?"

Em swallowed hard before she nodded.

"Just imagine Asking Alexandria is sitting in the sofa and playing Fifa."

"Okay... I could do that..."

"Great. C'mon now!" I dragged her with me through the open door and interrupted the Fifa game. "Hello, guys! I'm home!" I said and smiled widely at my babies.

"Thank God, you're home! Niall screamed and got himself up from the sofa.

"Hallelujah, hallelujah!" Zayn sung and the other boys joined him, somehow managing to nail five different harmonies. It was like melted chocolate for your ears - it sounded like heaven. Before I could tell them how good it sounded, I was embraced by Niall and all the air in my lungs disappeared.

"Sorry," Niall said when he finally released my and I took a deep breath.

"It's okay, Nialler. Okay, I want everyone to meet Em," I continued and still held her arm in a tight grip. I felt like she would try to run away if I let go of it, especially since all the boys were approaching.

"Hi, Em. I'm Niall," Niall said with his adorable Irish accent and flashed Em a big smiled.

"Hi, Niall," Em answered and forced him a smile.

"I'm Liam. Nice to meet you."

"Zayn," Zayn nodded and smiled.

"I'm Harry."

"LOUIS AT YOU SERVICE!" Louis screamed behind us and we both jumped high.

"Hi...," Em said, her voice still a little shaky from the tiny chock we both had gotten from Louis scream. "I'm Em. It's nice to meet you all..."

After ten minutes, it felt like Em had been living with the boys just as long as I had. They worked excellent together and everything Em had ever though about the lads seemed to have escaped from her head, flown through the room and jumped our the window. And the boys loved her. The wanted to know everything about her; everything from civil status and music taste to favourite Ben and Jerry taste and favourite number was asked during the next few hours before dinner. We even joined them for a video game, where I was the first one to die and Em won. Lets just say that I was really pleased with myself when we finally decided to go to bed for the night.
