Sophia's P.O.V.

Me and Louis sat at the couch staring at the house phone, right in front of us.

"I'll call the funeral director, you call your family's close friends and invite them to the ceremony." Louis ordered.

I nodded and reached for my phone. I called my aunt Mary.

"Why, Hello Sophia Darling! I haven't heard from you in a while." She answered.

"Hi Aunt Mary, um... I have some really terrible news." I choked out, tears threatening to fall.

"What happened Sophia?" She asked in a worried tone.

"My parents got in a car crash, and... they didn't make it." I softly replied.

"Oh my..." Were the only words I heard from my mother's sister.

"That's why I'm inviting you to the funeral." I said.

"W-when is it?" She stuttered.

"When is the funeral?" I mouthed to Louis.

"On Saturday." He whispered, covering the cellphone's mic.

I nodded, "It's on Saturday Aunt Mary"

"Okay sweetheart, I'll see you there. Good Night, and sorry for your loss. " I heard her whimper.

"Okay. " After that, the call ended.

Good Night? Ha! It almost was...

I dialed Uncle Martin's phone number.

"Hello?" He answered.

"Hi Uncle Martin." I responded.

"Oh! Sophia! What made you call me at this time?" He asked.

"I have some terrible news."

"Oh Sophia! Your parents arguing with you aren't terrible news." He chuckled

I frowned. I'd rather argue with them, instead of finding out they died.

"My parents got in a car accident and died. Terrible news now, huh?" I retorted.

He didn't answer. He ended the call.

I sighed. I dialed my other 2 uncle's and 4 aunties. They were all shocked, and agreed to attend the ceremony. As soon as I ended the last call, Louis nudged my side.

"What?" I asked.

"Do you want to cremate them?" He asked.

I froze in shock. I didn't know. I really didn't want flames burning my parents dead skin...

I shook my head, "No" I responded.

He nodded and told him 'No'. He continued answering the funeral directors questions. At some point He would ask me, just to make sure with the decisions He was making. I slowly laid down on the couch, staring at the ceiling. Louis placed my legs on his lap, to make me feel more comfortable. I sighed and let the tears fall. My phone started ringing. It was my uncle Martin.

"When is the funeral?" He asked me.

"Saturday" I responded.

The line went dead after my response. I placed my phone on the counter and went back to the couch, laying my legs on Louis' lap.

"Everything will be alright." He told me, carefully placing me on his lap.

He rested his chin on my shoulder, while I soaked his striped shirt with my tears. He ran his fingers through my hair. I felt safe in his arms. I felt like if we belonged together. I'm pretty sure I was just imagining things, especially since I just lost my parents.

"Are we still gonna get married?" He asked.

I was shocked. I'm guessing since my parents died, the arranged marriage can be cancelled.

"I don't know." I responded, "Do you want to?" I asked him, pulling away from the hug.

"We have 3 months to fall in love. Why not give it a shot?" He asked with a big smile.

I smiled back, "Okay." I answered.

He looked at me with his beautiful blue eyes. He was leaning closer to me. Our lips were now inches apart.

Knock! Knock!

I jerked back. The knocking continued. I sighed and stood up. I heard Louis groan, which made me smile. I looked through the small little peep hole and saw Niall, Harry, Zayn, and Liam patiently waiting for the door to open. I twisted the door knob, opened the door, and welcomed them inside. They took a seat at the couch, staring at me.

"Have you planned the funeral yet?" Harry asked.

I nodded, "Louis helped me."

They softly smiled.

"Well, we also came here because we were hungry." Niall added.

I giggled, "What do you guys want to eat?" I asked, heading over to the kitchen. Preparing my cooking utensils to make dinner to 5 boys that will be with me for the rest of my life.
