The next morning I wake up to the smell of coffee. I look over to Niall's side, but he's not there. He must have beat me. What a surprise that he woke up this early. I look around for my oversized sweater and slipped it on. The sound of giggling kids fills my ears. What a great way to wake up.

"Good morning Sleeping Beauty" Niall turns to look at me. I smile weakly at him. Jessica and Tyler are watching the cartoons on TV. I pour a cup of coffee for me.

"Morning" I say. My legs start to move towards him and I place the cup on the counter. My arms wrap around his neck and his hands grip my waist. I suck on his neck and a small groan leaves his lips. I smile at the small mark I leave on his neck.

"Screw you Ana" he groans.

"What? Did I make you hard?" I smirk knowing I did. So I decided teasing him a bit.

"Yep, and if you continue to talk like that I might take you here on the counter with the kids watching" Niall walks closer to me. His hot breath hitting my neck making me hot. But I'm brought back to reality when there's a knock on the door.

"I'll get it" I walk back when Niall is about to kiss me making him tip over and almost fall to the ground. "Oh hey Liam c'mon in" I wave him in closing the door when he's in. Liam walks over to the kids to greet them, then walks into the kitchen. I following.

"Hey mate! How are ya?" Niall asks. Liam pours a cup of coffee and sits down sipping from it. Oh shit I just remembered, Sophia. Crap. A creek is heard from above and foot steps follow. Crap she woke up. I look over to the stairs and sure enough, Sophia is walking down yawning.

"Morning" she says. Liam brings his attention to her and he choked on his coffee.

"Morning cheater" he scoffs. I gasp at his words and Niall's eyes widen.

"Liam?!" Sophia looks at him surprised. Maybe not expecting him to be here. "Liam please I am so sorry, I was really really drunk. I wasn't thinking" Sophia rushes her words.

"Save it" Liam holds up a hand to silence her.

"Liam can I talk to you for a sec" I finally speak up. He nods and stands up. I look at Niall and he smiles at me.

"Yeah?"

"Look, I know you're hurt about what Sophia did to you but, she wasn't thinking. She was drunk anyone could have done that mistake in that state. Even you. Please forgive her. I know it might not be easy for you to do so but, she loves you and I know you love her. The way you look at her and the way you smile when you talk about her. You can't be over her like that."

"I know I know. But she hurt me. I do love her with my whole being but what she did was not okay" he pulls on the ends of his hair.

"Please" I push him.

"Fine" he huffs. I smile in victory as we walk in.

Liam scratches the back of his head and walks in front of Sophia.

"Sophia, I'm sorry I said all those things I was just hurt okay. I love you so much that when I saw you kiss that guy at the club I was really hurt. I thought you were the right person and then this happens. But you know what? I love you and that's never gonna change because I love you with all my being. Could you ever forgive me for what I said to you?" My heart melts at his words. Sophia throws her arms around his neck and Liam wraps his around her waist.

"Yeah Liam. I will but, it should be me saying sorry to you for how I made you feel and that I cheated on you" she smiles. I stand next to Niall. We exchange looks and know exactly what to do.
