Hi everyone, I hope you have had a good week so far. A beautiful photo of Louis at the top for you. :) All the love, Summer xxx

"You look beautiful." Harry told me quietly, as we walked up the path to Ed's house which was already buzzing with the sound of laughter and conversation, while music played in the background. I felt my cheeks heat up and looked up. I loved the fact that he could still make me blush with little compliments like that. His kind words and small gestured kept reassuring me that our relationship was always worth fighting for. Harry was already looking down at me with a fond smile on his beautiful face, while the setting sun was illuminating his hair from the back, making it look like he had some sort of halo. "Thanks, you don't look to shabby yourself." I replied with a wink and he gave my hand a light squeeze, before he rang the door bell for us. 

No one answered, so we rang it again and knocked on the front door a couple of times, before the door was finally opened. But to my surprise, it wasn't Ed who opened the door, but a beautiful blonde girl around our age who gave us a wide smile. "Hi, come on in!" She opened the door a bit wider and after a moment of hesitation, we both stepped inside. "Hi, I'm Bella, Ed's girlfriend." she held out her hand for me to shake, but I spontaneously pulled her into a hug which she immediately returned. "It's so good to meet you, Ed's told me loads about you." I smiled at her and thought back to the time where Ed had showed me photos of her for half an hour. "I'm Claire." I introduced myself and saw a look of recognition cross her face. "THE Claire? The song writer?" she asked me and I felt myself blush again.

"Yes, that's her. And my girlfriend." Harry piped in from next to me and Bella's eyes wandered over to Harry who was grinning down at her. "And you are Harry, I presume. Nice to meet you." she said with a chuckle and they shook hands, before Bella tugged me away to introduce me to some people. I threw a half-amused, half-helpless look over my shoulder at Harry who was trailing behind us with an amused grin. He laughed at me, but then was attacked by Cara Delevigne who had jumped him from behind.

Now it was my turn to laugh and I happily waved at Cara, who responded with a wink, before I bumped into someone. "Oh shit, I'm so sorry, I didn't watch where I was going." I instantly apologised and looked up to see Louis grinning down at me. "I'm getting a kind of déja-vue feeling here, love. Haven't I told you that you just have to ask if you want to feel me up?" he joked and I rolled my eyes and pulled him into a quick hug, while Bella patiently waited next to us. "Oh shut up, Tomlinson." I lightly pushed him away and he pouted. "We'll talk later, okay?" he asked me with a small smile and when I nodded his face split into a wide grin.

"Louis get your ass over here, I need someone to help me with my bottle!" Milena called over from the buffet Ed had set up in his living room. "I better go before I don't get sex for another week or whatever she'll come up with next." he apologised himself with a worried look on his face and Bella and I continued our way through the crowd, both lightly snickering at Louis' words. "Men, I swear... They're all the same." Bella complained with a shake of her head and finally came to a hold in front of a group of girls. 

"Oi, listen up!" she shouted over the music and they all turned around. "This is Claire who I just met. She's a friend of Ed's and she seems super nice so be kind, alright?" she introduced me to the group. I was greeted with a lot of smiles and "hellos" and they all introduced themselves, before one of them, Kelly, scooted over a bit so that I could sat down next to her. "Wow, you have gorgeous eyes." a pretty girl with sun-kissed skin and dark brown eyes complimented me with a kind smile. "Thank you, I love your hair. I never get my curls to stay this beautiful for longer than five minutes." I quickly tried to take the attention off me and she laughed and then started to give me tips.

Harry's POV:

"Sooooo... how are you and Claire?" Cara questioned me after we had both gotten us a bottle of beer and a little bit of food. I let my eyes wander over the crowd and finally found my girlfriend sitting with Bella in a small group of girls who were all chatting among each other. "Harry? Hello?" Cara waved her hand in front of my face. Jumping a little bit, I looked back down at her and let out an embarrassed chuckle. "Eh..." I trailed off and watched Claire throw her head back in laughter, her eyes squinted together and her hair falling over her shoulder. 

"You're so whipped, dude." Cara snickered beside me and I cleared my throat and finally tore my eyes away from my beautiful girlfriend. "After watching you drool over her from the opposite end of the garden, I am assuming that you're doing well." Cara interrupted my thoughts and smirked up at me. Almost automatically, I felt my lips tug into a smile and I nodded. "She's everything I always wanted, Car. I don't know how I got so lucky." I admitted to her and she smiled up at me and gave me a light nudge into the side. "I'm happy for you, Harry. You deserve it." she said quietly, before she added "She's quite attractive, eh?" I let out a laugh and pulled her into my side and pressed a light kiss to her hair. 

"Are you happy, too, little one?" I teased her and she pulled away from me and gave me an indignant look. She was a little bit taller than Claire, but still over a head smaller than me and looked anything but scary. "I'm not THAT small." she defended herself and placed both of  her hands on her hips. I only hummed in response and she let out a little huff, before she muttered something which sounded like "that's why I'm not dating boys at the moment" and vanished in the direction of the drinks. Chuckling to myself, I let my eyes wander of the crowd again and did a double take, when I spotted Louis and Claire sitting together on a bench in a quiet corner of Ed's garden. Hadn't she been sitting with the girls until a minute ago?

I watched the two of them and fought a wave of jealousy, which was starting to make itself known. "He is your best friend and he is happy with Milena and Claire is happy with you. You have nothing to worry about." I told myself in my head and took another sip from my beer. My stomach twisted when I saw Louis throw an arm around his shoulder and press a kiss to her hair, as she rested her head on his chest. Then he must have said something funny, because she burst out laughing and gave him a light shove which made him fall backwards off the bench into Ed's flowers.

Seeing that Louis was struggling to get up, I made my way over to the bench and walked up to Claire who wasn't helping at all. "God, no wonder you're not getting any at the moment! Milena is lucky that you can kiss her once in a while without falling over." she joked, before she noticed me. Her whole face lit up, making the lion in my chest purr in content. "Can you stop laughing and help me get up?" Louis' annoyed voice came from the end of the little slope he had fallen down. After a halfheartedly apology from Claire for the laughter, we both helped to pull Louis up who hissed as soon as we had pulled him to his feet. 

Almost automatically, I wrapped an arm around his waist and Claire helped me pull him up to the bench where he sat up and immediately held his foot. "Shit, I am sorry for laughing, Lou. Are you alright?" Claire asked concerned and crouched down in front of him to inspect his foot. "Do you need some ice, mate?" I asked him with a worried look at his quickly swelling joint and when he nodded I disappeared into the kitchen and even managed to talk to Milena, as well, who followed me. 

"You clumsy noodle." she said with a fond smile and smoothed down his hair while he leaned his head against her shoulder. "Oi, it wasn't really my fault. Claire shoved me." he protested weakly and hissed again when Claire gently started to apply some pressure to different points of his foot. "I am so sorry, Lou. You know I didn't mean to hurt you." she apologised again and stood up. "'s fine, luv, don't worry about." he assured her with a weak smile and continued to press the ice to his ankle. 

"What do you reckon?" I asked him and carefully placed a hand on his shoulder. "Do you think you need to get this checked out?" I asked him and after a moment or two he nodded. "But I don't want an ambulance. Maybe you can drive?" he asked hopefully and when I nodded, he sighed and placed the ice next to him on the bench. "Alright, let's do this." I handed Claire my car keys and then Milena and I both heaved Louis onto our shoulders and he literally hopped through the house to my car, earning some stares from the other party guests.

"Not a word." he mumbled angrily when he caught Claire's amused grin and his anything but elegant hopping. "Wouldn't dream of it, honey." she replied with a smirk, before she closed the door behind him and handed me the keys. "I'll just pop back upstairs to tell Ed or Bella that we're off." she explained, before she run back inside, while I sat down in the driver's seat, with Louis next to me who was already complaining to Milena about the pain. It was gonna be a long drive.
