Hey guys! So I have some bad news...I won't be updating until Sunday. I am going on vacation and I won't be able to write. Enjoy this last chapter until Sunday! Thank you!
Stella's POV:
When Harry left to go get ready for the day, I did the same. I put on a pair of black leggings with a white tank top and an oversized plaid shirt. I leave the first few buttons undone and I put a delicate gold necklace around my neck. Then I braid my messy curls to the side and put on a light layer of makeup. I grab a black oversized purse and slip my feet into black ankle booties. I shrug on a heavy gray sweater and wrap a crème coloured scarf around my neck. It is cold out here and I want to be warm. When I walk out into the kitchen Harry is already standing there. "Well hello." I say to him and he smiles. "Hello love." he says. He is wearing black skinny jeans with a white t-shirt and a black jacket on top. He has on black boots. His hair is pushed back under a dark beanie. He looks so good with his hair pushed off his forehead. Lately he has been wearing it like that more and more. I have to thank Lou for teaching him that hairstyle. "Ready to go?" I ask. He nods and asks me, "Which car are we taking?" "Mine, I have missed my baby." I say referring to my shiny black Range Rover. Harry rolls his eyes and laughs at me.
When we get in the car Harry and I head to the grocery store. "I have an idea." I tell him. "And what is that?" he asks. "Let's have dinner all of us tonight! Text the boys and see if they are available! I'll ask the girls." I say to Harry. "That's a nice idea." he tells me and pulls out his phone. "Alright, everyone is good to come." he tells me. "Perfect. Do me a favour and get my phone and text Perrie, Eleanor and Danielle. I know Cristina will be at the house anyways." I tell him. He does as he is told and the girls all agree. They will be there. "Okay perfect. Now we just need to figure out what to make." I tell Harry pulling into a parking spot outside the grocery store. "We?" he says raising an eyebrow. "Yes we, you are going to help me cook." I tell him smiling. "Alllllllright." he says dragging the word. "You have issues." I tell him and we walk into the store. We fill our cart and pay the cashier. We have just about every food group in the car now and we head home.
Harry and I put all the groceries away and I begin cooking. "Okay, so you have to marinate the chicken. I have the recipe written down in the book beside the fridge." I tell Harry. "Mind if I do my own recipe?" he asks. "Uh, Harry I don't think it's a good idea to be playing with the food when we are having guests." I tell him grabbing the recipe book for him. "Just trust me okay?" he says taking the chicken out of the packaging. He starts putting all kinds of ingredients together and the smell is wonderful. "So you cook then." I say watching Harry do his thing. "Just a little." he says smirking at me. "Perfect, from now on you can do all the cooking then." I say smiling and he slaps my bum playfully. I squeal and return to chopping the lettuce for the salad. We have a few hours until everyone arrives and I need to make a few more sides. I have salad prepared and Harry is working on the chicken. I decide to make potatoes, corn, carrots and a few other veggies. When all the food is finally cooked, Harry and I set the table and the collapse on the couch. I put my legs over Harry's and we relax for about ten minutes until there is a knock at the door. "Come in!" I call out. Zayn, Perrie, Louis and Eleanor walk in together. "Hey guys!" I say and Harry gets up from the couch and follows me to the door. I wrap both girls in a tight hug. "How have you guys been? I've missed you!" I tell them motioning for them to come in. Harry grabs everyone a drink and Louis compliments on our cooking. "It smells delicious!" he says high fiving me. I giggle. "So Stel, you excited for your first tour?" Zayn asks. I clap my hands together and squeal. "Oh my God, I can't wait!" I say. They laugh and there is another knock at the door, Niall, Cristina, Liam and Danielle walk in and I run to Danielle and pull her into a hug. "Hi Dani!" I say squeezing her. She laughs and the four of them join us in the kitchen. "We were just talking about the tour." I fill them in. Danielle's face falls and her eyes stare at the floor. That's strange. "Yay! I can't wait!" Cristina says and Niall wraps his arm around her waist. They are so cute. "Is everyone ready to eat?" I ask and everyone heads to the table. I guess they are.
After we eat the girls help me clean up while the boys sit on the couch and try to pick out a movie. "Niall no one wants to watch Step Brothers." Louis says pulling the remote away from Niall. "Why don't we watch Love Actually?" Harry suggest. I smile because I know that that is his favourite movie. "No, it's not even Christmas." Zayn points out. "What about Batman?" Liam says. The four boys turn to him and all at the same time they shout "NO!" "Fine, it was just a suggestion." Liam says raising his hands in defeat. "Okay, give me the remote." Eleanor says taking charge. "We are watching Crazy Stupid Love and that's final." she says turning the channel to start the movie. The girls and I all clap at Eleanor and she bows in front of us. Louis tosses a pillow at her and she runs over to him and hits him playfully. I bring a tray full of cookies and chocolates to the table in front of the couch and we start the movie. I scan the room to see Niall and Cristina snuggled into each other. Zayn is sitting on the floor with Perrie's head rested on his shoulder. Louis and Eleanor are wrapped in each others arms and I am sitting between Harry's legs with his arm draping my shoulder. I notice that Liam and Danielle are sitting quite far apart. That is so strange, Danielle has been especially quiet today. I hope they didn't have a fight.
When the movie ends every gets up slowly and heads out. They all thank Harry and I before leaving. Cristina is staying with Niall obviously and we both agree to do something together tomorrow. I have to run to the studio for a few hours tomorrow and she has to come with me. Once everyone has left Harry and I sit at the table facing each other. "Did you notice Liam and Danielle?" I ask him. "Yeah, that was strange, she almost seemed pissed at him." Harry said agreeing with me. "I hope they resolve it!" I say and he smiles. "Me too." he says. "Ready for bed?" I ask Harry and he nods. We walk to my room and I watch Harry pull his shirt off his body. He slides his pants down his legs and he is left standing in nothing but his boxers. He smirks at me and I change into my black silk nighty. I wink at him. "You just love playing games with me don't you Stel." he says smirking. I giggle and climb into the bed beside him. "Just wait till you see the tiny bed we have on the tour bus. We are going to have to squish in that every night." Harry says turning onto his side to face me. "Really?" I ask. "Yeah, but I don't care, as long as you're there with me, I don't care how small the bed is." he says smiling at me. My heart melts. "You're such a softy." I tell his running my thumb over his dimple. "You love it." he jokes and I laugh. "I do, very much." I admit. "So what's going on tomorrow?" he asks me. "Well I need to go to the studio for a few hours and Cristina is coming with me. Lou will be there too, I have to try on a few outfits for her. You can come if you aren't doing anything." I tell him. "Alright, yeah maybe I will." he says. "Have you met Lux?" he asks me. "Lou's daughter? No I haven't but I have heard so much about her." I tell him. "Would you like to babysit her with me tomorrow night then? Lou asked me earlier today and I thought I would see if you would like to join me." he asks pushing a strand of hair away from my face. "I would love to!" I tell him and he leans in and places a soft kiss on my lips. "Okay." he says. "I love you Stella." he says pulling me close to his chest. "I love you Harry." I respond. He kisses my forehead and then my lips again and I fall asleep the biggest smile on my face. Being with Harry has brought so much joy to my life. He has changed me for the better and I can't imagine what I would do if I lost him. I drift off in my thought just remembering what my life was like before I lived in London. Before I met Harry. I have been so fortunate and it still feels very surreal to me that I am going to be on tour with One Direction, the band that I was in love with. Now those four crazy, wild boys are like brothers to me and I am in love with the fifth one. I never imagined that this is what my life would be like and I couldn't be more grateful.
