"What movie should we watch next?" Harry asks after the movie finishes. They had been watching movies all day after talking with mum and Gem about how they've been and what they've been working on.

"Lets go back downstairs and see what Gemma and your mum are doing." Aaron suggest.

"Oh. Okay, yeah that's fine."

"Hey," Aaron walks up to Harry who is standing by the telly and kisses his cheek, "I would love staying up here with you the rest of the night but you came to visit your mum and Gemma, we should go see what they're doing okay?"

"Okay." Harry pouts and gives him a small smile. Aaron grabs his hand and they walk downstairs into the kitchen where the smell of pasta begins filling the house.

"You're making pasta?" Harry asks as he lets go of Aaron and stands next to his mum.

"Of course. For dinner. Unless you guys wanted to go out and eat dinner?"

"No, pasta is great!" Aaron says. He goes to sit at one of the high chairs at the small island in the middle of the kitchen. "Don't worry Anne, pasta is great."

"Harry?" mum turns to Harry and looks for his approval on the pasta.

"Yeah. Pasta will do." He kisses his mums cheek and goes to sit down next to Aaron. "Where's Gem?" Harry ask and looks around and makes his way into the living room to look for her and back to the kitchen.

"She went to go buy some juice and wine."

"White?"

"And red." mum responds. "Why don't you two start setting up the table? I'm sure Gem has some plates somewhere in this kitchen."

Harry and Aaron get up and start looking through the cabinets searching for plates.

"Found them." Aaron says and Harry walks towards him and grabs the plates from him to take it to the table. Harry begins placing the plates on the place mats and Aaron walks in with forks and napkins and places them in the middle of the table.

"You're supposed to put the forks with the plates Aaron." Harry says timidly.

"So then put them with the plates. Don't tell me, just. . . do it. Put the napkins with the plates too while your at it. I'll go get cups." Harry bites his bottom lip and thinks about what Aaron said and decides it's best to just nod and not respond at all. Harry nods and Aaron goes back into the kitchen and gets some cups and wine glasses.

"Did you find the cups?" Harry asks when Aaron walks back into the dining room.

"They're right here," Aaron lifts his hands and Harry nods. "Grab them. Go put them on the table. I need to go make a call." He quickly pecks Harrys forehead, hands him the cups and wine glasses and pushes past him and quickly goes into the bathroom across from the living room.

"Okay, I will." Harry whispers to himself and starts putting the cups and glasses next to the plates.

"Harry!" mum calls from the kitchen, "Can you help Gem with the juice and wine?"

"Yeah I'll help!" Harry yells back. He walks out of the house and towards Gem.

"Oh gosh. Here take the juices, they're heavy!" Gemma laughs when she spots Harry, he laughs along with her as he takes the juices from her and she grabs the wine bottles. "Alright lets go."

"I'm excited for dinner now." Harry laughs and looks at the wine bottles Gemma bought.

"Great right?" she asks and gives Harry a better look at the bottles. "They were on sale and they're great wine too!" She opens the door and lets Harry walk inside.
