Liam Payne's Step Sister

46: My Birthday!

Ellie's P.O.V

I woke up in a big, colorful bed and start to panic.

Where am I?

Was I kidnapped?

Am I dead?

The questions sabotage my thoughts.

I remember that I'm in my new house with Niall and calm down. Then begins my panic to find Niall.

"Niall?!" I scream.

Silence...

"Niall!?" I repeat, louder.

Still silent...

Of course he forgot! They all did! What kind of idiot am I to believe a bunch of famous people would actually care it was my birthday.

I stumble into the kitchen to find a simple note that seems to have been written hastily.

Be back soon. Just had to do some stuff. See you later :)

Yeah... They obviously forgot about my birthday. What kind of friend would remember each other's birthday?

A good one...

I slap myself and decide to actually act like Niall and just forget it's my birthday.

A few hours later, I'm still home alone but I've moved to the couch in the living room and am watching Netflix.

A black Range Rover pulls into the driveway and I pray it's anyone but one of the boys.

Lucky me. I think to myself as Louis gets out of the car.

"Hey you." He grins and ruffles my hair.

"Quit." I reply in an annoyed tone as I use my arms to block him from messing up my hair.

"Why so sad?" He pouts.

"No reason." I mumble as I walk back to my room.

"Can you come over to our house? Liam, Zayn and I miss you." He dumbly asks as I stomp up the stairs.

"Leave me alone." I groan.

"Please just come with me. And go change into something nice. Liam would hate to see you walking around in spandex and a sports bra. Even if Niall might enjoy it." He smirks.

I reluctantly change into a sweater and a skirt then get in the car and Louis and I drive to the house we used to live in together.

The drive there was silent due to my previous annoyance.

I step out of the car and I catch a light switch off down in the living room.

I turn around to see that Louis has disappeared.

Not again...

I shrug it off, walk towards the doorway and slowly turn the door knob.

"Surprise!" Loads of people, some I don't even know, jumped out from behind couches and the smallest hiding places.

I frowned for a second because I didn't see Niall anywhere but brushed it off because he was probably elsewhere and I didn't want anyone to get the idea I was unhappy about the surprise.

Maura, Niall's mom, came up to me and gave me a big squeeze.

"You have no idea how happy he is to have you. I had to leave the two of you alone the whole time you were in Ireland because Niall was afraid I'd spill his secret." She sheepishly grins.

Greg comes over to me with Theo in his arms.

"That little lad couldn't have picked a better girl. He planned this whole thing." He grins.

"Where is he?" I ask, trying to lessen the huge smile on my face.

"Look outside." Greg gestures to the door and I see a black Range Rover's front door opening.

"Niall!" I happily scream as I wrap my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck.

"So much for being crippled." He chuckles as he hugs me back.

"I thought you forgot my birthday." I change subjects.

"I would never forget your birthday." He smirks.

"Ellie... You can let go now. I'm not going anywhere." He slightly laughs.

"He's mine!" Louis sprints out the door and tightly squeezes Niall.

"Sorry Loui. I love Ellie more." Niall says as he hugs me tighter and tries to push him off.

I stick my tongue out at Louis and Niall starts to walk towards the door with me still attached.

"Aye! You've gotta share Nialler!" Liam says as he walks over to me and hugs me once I'm off Niall.

Zayn walks over with three teenage girls and a middle-aged woman.

"Ellie, this is my family. Everyone invited theirs but I'm the best because I introduced mine first." He proudly smirks.

"These are my sisters, Safaa, Waliyha and Doniya. And my mum and dad, Trisha and Yaser." He proudly smiles.

"It's so nice to finally meet you!" Doniya squeezes me.

"He talks about you all the time." Safaa smirks.

I suddenly feel a tiny pair of arms wrap around my legs and I look down.

"Auntie Ellie!" Sophie shrieks.

"Hey!" I happily shout as I lift her up.

I peek over at Zayn to see him talking to his family. Actually, it seems like everyone here is talking to their families.

I sneak over to Niall and Maura and give Niall a quick peck on the cheek.

"You missed." He smirks.

"I never miss." I return a smirk.
