Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Feeling 22 Or How I Had A Conversation With James Corden

Hi guys, I hope you enjoy this chapter. I put a major cliffhanger at the end because I am an evil person deep down in my soul and enjoy torturing my amazing readers. ;) All the love, Summer xxx

We happily ate our frozen yogurt, making the other one try something from time to time, before we finally drove back to his house. The others had had nearly an hour now and I was very excited how the surprise party would turn out. Harry still didn't have a clue and I was trying really hard to hide the fact that I was silently freaking out. He parked his car in front of his house and quickly walked around to my side to open the car door for me. "Such a gentleman." I teased him and he did a mock bow, before we both burst out laughing. "Only for you, Miss Winters, only for you." I laughed and shook my head. "Liar, I know that you treat all women with respect." I saw a hint of a blush on his cheeks, not entirely sure though as it was difficult to see anything in the dark.

We walked up the stairs to his house and Harry unlocked his door, holding it open for me. The moment we stepped inside, the lights went on and everyone jumped into the hallway, yelling "Surprise!" Harry jumped at least a foot into the air, automatically pulling me behind him and even I jumped a little bit. "Jesus, guys, you scared the shit out of me!" The others laughed and Anne and Gemma made their way to the front. Harry's whole face lit up when he saw them and he pulled both of them into a hug. "Mum, Gemma! What are you all doing here?" He pulled away and everyone else congratulated him as well. 

"Claire thought you deserved a nice birthday party, mate." Liam piped in from the stairs and Harry turned around to face me. "You organised this?" he asked me and I nodded with a wide smile. With two big steps he was in front of me and pulled me into a tight hug. "Thank you." he whispered in my ear. "This is the best birthday present anyone could have made me." I smiled and pulled away, grinning up at him. "Even better than the record?" A grin spread across his face. "Even better than that."

Harry was ushered into the living room where the others had prepared food and drinks and Anne went back into the kitchen to light the candles on the birthday cake she had made. After I had taken my shoes off, I followed her. "Thank you so much for doing this for him, love." She thanked me when she noticed that I had entered the kitchen. "You are very welcome. He really deserves this." I told her and squeaked when two arms wrapped themselves around my waist from behind me. "Louis!" He chuckled and pressed a kiss to my cheek. "Claire!" he mocked me and tickled me a bit, making me squirm in his grip. "Stop it!" Anne cleared her throat and I blushed and tried to get out of Louis' grip again, this time successfully. 

"Louis, would you mind lighting the candles? I need to use the bathroom really quickly before we bring out the cake." She held out the lighter towards him and he nodded and gave her a mildly embarrassed smile. "Of course, Anne." She gave him a thankful smile and shot me an amused look, before she left us alone in the kitchen. I silently watched, as Louis carefully lit one candle after another. There was a silence until he was finished and stepped back to admire the cake. "I feel like we need to take a photo of this. Anne did such a good job." I said from behind him and he jumped a little bit, making me smile. "Absolutely. Great idea!" Stepping forward, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and took a photo of the cake, before Anne entered the room again. "Oh thank you, Louis, that looks wonderful." He smiled at her and stepped back so that she could admire the cake as well. "I just lit the candles, you did the rest of the work." he complimented her. She nodded absentmindedly and counted the candles one more time.

"Louis, would you mind helping me carry the cake while Claire films the whole thing?" She asked us. "Sure." He stepped forward while I opened the camera app on my phone again and started filming when they stepped out of the kitchen. Everyone started to sing 'Happy Birthday' when we entered the living room, well everyone apart from me because I didn't want my voice to be heard on the recording later on. Harry's eyes widened at the beautiful cake. Anne and Louis walked up to him and when the others had finished singing, he blew out the candles and made a wish. When he looked up, he caught my eyes and gave me a wide smile, which I returned. I stopped the video and put my phone back into my pocket, before I joined the others who were now sprawling out across the sofas and the floor, waiting for Harry to open his presents.
