All of us were drinking Starbucks frappes when my phone went off. It was Simon. Oh shittt.

"Hello?" I asked, taking another sip.

"Alli- I went to your mom's house."

"Oh...."

"She signed the papers."

"Really?!"

"Yes, you can go over there tomorrow to grab your belongings."

"Can I please bring Paul or Harry or Zayn? I'm afraid she is going to do something."

"Yes of course."

"Okay, thank you so much Si!"

"You are welcome, see you later."

I hung up the phone and looked at Harry. "My mom signed the papers," I said with a smile. He stood up and hugged me tightly. "Thank god," he said. "I can't imagine you going back to that house."

"I can't either..." I said.

***

"Is this it?" Harry asked, stopping in front of the house. "Yeah," I said, opening the car door. "Come with me. Please?" I asked Harry.

"Of course," he said, walking up to the front door.

I opened the door without knocking. Surprisingly, it wasn't locked.

"Mother! I came to get my stuff!" I said, running up the stairs to my room.

"Oh hey, bitch!" I hear my mother call from her room, slurring each word.

I walked into my room and smiled. It was exactly how I left it. Harry came behind me and hugged my waist, kissing my cheek.

I grabbed my old suitcase and piled my favorite clothes in. I noticed Harry looking around at the pictures and awards on my dresser.

"You play softball?" He asked, picking up a medal. "Yeah..." I said, walking over to him. "I played for high school. Third base."

Out of the corner of my eye I saw a picture of my whole family. Tears blurred my vision. Why does it have to be this way? I mean, I am glad I am a Tomlinsom, but why couldn't I have a normal family?

"A-Alli?" I heard a male voice say to me. I turned around and saw a tall teenager staring at me, his eyes were stained with tears.

"Ohmygosh, Jacob," I said.

"A-Are you leaving?" He sniffed and wiped his eyes.

"Yes," I said.

"Alli, I'm so sorry for everything, I meant to call you b-but...-"

At that very moment, my brother broke down in front of me. "I'm so sorry, Alli."

I ran over to him and hugged him. "It's okay Jake, really. You barely did any damage, it was all mom and dad," I said to him, wiping his tears away.

"I-I know," he stuttered. "Who are you?" He asked, looking up at Harry. "Wait, is that...?"

"Yeah Jake, it is."

"What are you doing in my house?" Jake said in anger.

"Hey, calm down!" I yelled at Jake. "Harry's my friend."

I felt Harry flinch at the word "friend".

"I'm leaving Jake," I tell him. "Mom signed adoption papers. I'm Louis Tomlinson's sister now. I'm moving to England."

"W-what?" He stutters, looking back and forth between me and Harry. "Alli, don't-"

"Jake! Enough, okay? Get out," I said, pointing at the door. Once he exits, i shut the door and put my forehead on it, sighing.

"Okay, what other clothes do I need?" I ask, trying to see if Harry won't bring up the subject.

But of course, being Harry, he does. He comes up to me and wraps his arms around me softly. I bite the inside of my cheek trying not to cry, but it doesn't work. A few tears go down my face, and he notices. "Alli, babe," He says calmly, wiping them off with his thumb.

"Can we please leave?" I ask. He nods and kisses me on the forehead before letting me go.

I go and grab some photos of me and my friends. I also grab a few books and my pillow.

"A pillow?" He chuckles. "Yeah," I say with a smile, "You don't understand how comfy it is."

"Niall! We're back!"

"Alli!" I hear him scream. Him and Natalie come running around the corner.

"Where is Linds?" I ask Natalie. "She had to go," Nat said.

"Oh," I said.

"Me and Nat are going out to the store, do you want anything?" Niall asked me and Harry.

"I'm good, thanks," I said, then looked at Harry. "I'm good too," he said.

Natalie and Niall walked out the door. When the door shut, Harry walked to me. "Well, i guess it's just the two of us?" He says, inches away from my face. He smirks and I smile. "Yeah," i said, wrapping my arms around his neck before he smashed his lips onto mine.
