Irritated, I gave Niall a hundred bucks and stormed out of the room. I know, this isn't the type of behavior someone like me should act, but I reckon it's better than to stay inside and be alone with my irritated thoughts. I never agreed to wager yet, somehow, that seemed to be the only way for me to calm down, even just a bit. I didn't have to listen to Taylor's answers to Alison to know that she didn't agree. She wouldn't, that's already a fact, I needn't listen.

I took a minute to cool off, then I went back inside. Niall laughed, I tried not to look at his annoying face and sat the furthest away from him. But the about-to-be unlucky Irish moved beside me while grinning. He handed me a hundred bucks then said, "You won. Twin is coming with you."

"Words doesn't help right now, Niall. Better keep your mouth shut." I mumbled, then I remembered I was trying to cool myself. I looked at Alison and Taylor, that helped ease me off.

"What? You really did." He said and then looked at Taylor's direction, "Tay, Alice, you two are coming right?"

"Yep!" Alison answered cheerily while Taylor smiled.

I didn't get it at first, maybe my mind couldn't take it easily. That's when Niall looked at me, still with his annoying grin. "You won." He repeated.

"Lad, if I were you, I'd stop with these tricks for a while, I'm not exactly in the best moods." I told Niall and he nodded his head.

It was true, I haven't been in my best mood these past days. It adds up to the fact that Taylor will be leaving and she doesn't even want to talk about it. Heck, she doesn't even want to talk to me.

"Oh, we know. That's why you need to take the time off with twin." Niall patted my shoulder then focused on his phone.

I stayed quiet, mentally talking to Louis, and after a while, I decided it was time to go.

"Tay, princess, shall we?" I asked, standing up. I walked to the door and opened it wide. Taylor stood up with Alison holding her hand.

"I thought you weren't gonna buy another Range Rover." Taylor said, leaning on the wall with her arms crossed.

I smiled, finally I heard her say something voluntarily and not just that forced answer whenever I ask something. "Well, thank you for your concern, and finally speaking, might I add." I said in a teasing way and then looked at Alison who was currently smiling up at me.

Taylor laughed. I missed that laugh so much, and that usual glow that I haven't been able to see. "You said you weren't going to buy another Range Rover, Harry." She said.

"I said, I needed someone to stop me from buying another one." I replied, Alison then went towards Taylor.

Taylor pursed her lips together, then later raised an eyebrow, "Well, are you going to buy another one?"

"Same design, maybe."

"Okay, take your time then." Taylor said then her and Alison went to the corner where they sat and probably ignored why they were both here.

I just let them be while I do my business around the building. It took a bit yet eventually, the papers and the car were all prepped.

"Tay, Alison, hop on. Let's take it for a test drive." I said. Alison immediately went to the backseat since she was used to sitting there. I shut the door and opened the other one to the passenger seat. Again, I smiled at Taylor and said, "Inside, love."

Taylor scratched her arms and shakily stepped forward. She seemed hesitant and anxious about it. For a while, she stared at the passenger seat while biting her lower lip.
