Harry's arm untangles from my body, leaving me with a wide mouth and large, shocked eyes.

He steps aside, revealing a confused Louis. I, myself probably look just like him. My cheeks redden in complete embarrassment.

"Dirty minded." Harry snorts out.

I turn to him completely confused as to what he just said. He chuckles while staring into his cousin's eyes.

"She's so good at being dumb, that she almost slipped. My sister in law was very luck to have me walking right behind her." Harry comes up with a lie, I think. He rolls his eyes at me, before pulling Louis inside with him.

What was that? I wasn't about to slip. Why did he pull me into his hold that way? What is wrong with him? I have so many questions at the moment.

Before Louis can actually think otherwise from Harry's lie, I step inside. Fixing my clothes up a bit, I then take a deep breath and step into the main living room.

Adam sits on the large couch. Two younger looking men sit beside him. The skinny one with his hands full of tattoos quickly makes eye contact with me and a smile suddenly appears.

Anne sits beside an older man, who is probably Adam's dad. I'm sure he's the one in the pictures that Adam has. I notice the other guy beside my husband is Liam, his half brother.

"Emma, come here love!" Adam quickly stands up, stretching his hand out to reach for me.

"I'm so glad to see you Adam." I whisper in his ear as he pulls me into a hug. I feel safe around his arms.

Harry's attitude and character is very uncomfortable and as much as I'm trying, everyone seems to be okay with me but him.

"Aww babe." He chuckles before pulling himself away and pulling me further into the living room.

"Dad, Liam..this is my wife Emma." He turns to me with a confident smile.

I look over to stare at Geoff, who suddenly smiles and stands. He steps close to me and pulls me into a tight hug.

"Welcome to the family Emma. It's great meeting you." He greets me, feeling much more comfortable to be here.

"Thank you Mr. Payne, I'm so happy to be able to finally meet you." He pulls back.

"Please call me Geoff." He insists.

"Sure." I smile at him.

"I'm Liam, I don't know if you've heard of me." Liam stands beside Geoff with a huge smile plastered.

"Of course I have, it's my pleasure to meet you." I giggle as I admire his nice demeanor.

"Oh..this is a friend of the family! Zayn." He introduces the tatted boy, who jolts up from the couch and extends his arm out to politely greet me.

"That's me." He chuckles. His eyes capture my attention. I notice he has really long eyelashes, which honestly makes him look very handsome.

"Nice to meet you Zayn." I reply as we still shake hands.

"I'm sorry to ruin the meeting time, but we need her in the kitchen." Gemma speaks up as she stands by the door frame dividing the kitchen and living room.

"For what?" Adam frowns.

"We are gonna bake cookies." Gemma smiles proudly.

"Oh okay." He turns back to me.

"Excuse me." I excuse myself as I turn to stare at everyone. Harry is nowhere in sight. Is he seriously always missing out?

Wait, why should I even care?
It's not like I really want to see him without knowing why he did what he did back there.
