Walking downstairs, I see Niall and Louis setting up some balloons around the house. I walk over to Harry and wrap my arms around his torso, laying my head down in the crook of his neck. I kiss his shoulder and he just glances down at me, smiling.

*Harry's POV*

I don't know what's gotten into Liz today but I kind of like it............

"Well good morning to you too," I smile down at Liz.

I'll have to remember to thank Nathan later for this.........

I just hope it doesn't backfire like I think it will........

Although I'm still mad at him for basically making Liz act crazy..........

I begin to turn around to put my son's birthday cake in the fridge when I'm suddenly whipped around by Liz grabbing my shirt collar. 

"H-hi," I nervously smile.

"I love you," she grins.

"Babe not here in the middle of the house. But I do like how you're so anxious to kiss me."

"I'm not anxious..........I'm desperate," she whispers.

"For what?" I ask.

"Being loved........." she whimpers when I see a small tear trail down her face, but I quickly wipe it away with my thumb.

"Liz you know how much I love you. Go look in the mirror and look at what you see because the girl you will see in the mirror is the girl that I fell in love with. Don't you dare think that you're suddenly not good enough for me. I love you for you and playing desperate is not going to make me love you anymore because you just want to make sure that I love you but you don't see that I love you already so quit playing desperate and take a look at what you already have before you start treating yourself like the victim."

That feels so much better to say because the fact that she always acts like I don't love her just pushes me over the edge and pisses me off. I don't mean to sound rude but it's true. She plays desperate and I'm getting sick of it. It's not that I don't love her, I do, it's just I don't want her to have to act like I don't want her.

Liz just stares at me until I look behind her and see Eleanor carrying Dylan into the living room.

"There's the birthday boy!!!" I cheer.

Eleanor puts Dylan down and he immediately runs over to me into my arms, clearly hurting Liz's feelings, so I hand him over to her so I don't have to see her cry. I love Liz but she seriously needs to toughen up. I mean I understand that girls are fragile but I'm sure that they're not that fragile. I begin to give Liz a kiss when I suddenly hear the front door open followed by Zayn and Danielle walking into the kitchen with a bunch of wrapped presents in their arms. 

"This is gonna be the best birthday party ever," Liz smiles before tickling Dylan, causing him to erupt in a fit of laughter.

"Time for cake!!" Louis yells, seeming more thrilled than Dylan.

I quickly run upstairs to grab Daisy and Casey when I realize that Liam is nowhere to be found. 

"Liam?" I call numerous times, "Liam where are you?"

"In here," I hear his voice reply.

"Man what are you doing?!?" I ask when I take one step into his room to see him sitting on his bed paying X-Box.

"Playing video games. Dammit I died."

He should be downstairs, not up here wasting his life away on a TV screen. He's been acting so weird ever since he broke up with Danielle. Maybe it's because he knows that he can't live without her. I snatch the remote from his hands and toss it out the window, causing it to shatter into a million places when it hits the driveway. I look back at Liam after the crash and his face is bright red, full of anger.
