Louis' POV

"Guys, come down to the lounge!" Emily screamed to the house. Harry, Niall and I were sitting in the lounge room upstairs, and we looked at each other our eyes wide with alarm. We all sprinted downstairs to see what was wrong.

We sprinted down the stairs and into the lounge, only to find Emily in the middle of the lounge, tapping her foot. She had her camera at the ready, and she laughed when she saw all our confused faces and took a picture. Zayn came running out next, and he looked terrified at what he might find. Em burst out laughing and took a picture of him, and he shot her a confused look. Danielle and Liam came running out from doing god knows what, both looking terrified, and Em took a picture of them as well, and they looked at each other and then at Niall, Harry and I in confusion.

"What's going on, Em?" I asked her, my voice shaky with the fear that had gone through me, and she started to laugh.

"I need a picture of all of us," she said simply, and started to laugh again.

"Oh my god, Emi, you scared the shit out of us," Danielle said and started laughing. The rest of us started laughing shakily as well, and then we all couldn't stop.

"No but seriously, get your butts here and help me take this picture," she laughed, and dragged everyone to a spot in front of the couch. Harry, Niall and I sat down, Zayn sat next to us, and Liam and Danielle stood behind the couch.

"What do you need it for?" I asked her, as she fiddled around with the camera.

"You'll see," she said simply, her back turned.

"I'd better, before I die of the heart attack you just gave me," I said shortly, and everyone burst out laughing.

"Okay! Everyone get ready, and smile!" she shouted and ran and jumped on my lap, waiting for the camera to flash.

We all smiled widely, and I was so glad to see that Em's was genuine. We were all so happy at that time, it was brilliant. The camera flashed, but Harry said he blinked, and we all thumped his back and took another one.

She ran off with her camera and plugged it into her laptop, leaving us in the lounge, looking at each other with dumbfounded looks on our faces.

"That was so weird," Harry laughed, and we all joined in again.

"Its good to see her happy though, finally!" Liam said, and we all nodded.

"It wouldn't have anything to do with the hand holding I saw earlier today?" Niall asked, wiggling his eyebrows, receiving a high five off Haz. I didn't say anything, but I could feel my cheeks becoming redder.

"Ah, what's this?" Zayn asked, suddenly aware of the conversation, and he too started wiggling his eyebrows at me, a big smile on his face.

"Lou and Em walked into the house today holding hands, all cutesy," Harry laughed.

"That is pretty cute, boo bear," Danielle laughed, and I shot her a look for using that name.

"So is that all that happened?" Liam asked, and I didn't say anything. I looked over at Em who was in the dining room, furrowing her brow at her laptop, and I couldn't help but smile.

"OHHHH! Look at that smile!" all the boys yelled, and I hit them all, one by one, still not saying anything.

"Come on, Louis. Spill," Niall demanded, and I couldn't stop myself from smiling.

"I really like her, it's crazy. I think she likes me as well," I began.

"Yeah?" they all egged me on.
