"Hi Lilah" Charlie greets me and gives me a hug "Hi Zayn" he says.

"Hi" Zayn replies "Lilah, I have to go but I'll see you around yeah?"

"Okay, bye" I wave to him as he crosses the street, I turn back around to face Charlie "What are you doing here?" I'm glad to see him.

"I was just coming down to have buy a cup of coffee and head down to my house to get my guitar. I really wasn't expecting he see you" he beams.

"Does everyone buy coffee here? I swear to god I've been living here for over a month and I've never seen any of you there" I say and he laughs.

"Well I guess you're not very observant. Shall we go inside?" he opens the door in the most gentleman fashion. I walk in and he follows right behind me, luckily my coffee is still warm so I sit down and wait for him to buy his. All my life I've never really liked coffee, I usually settled foor tea or hot chocolate but when I moved here I just bought one here for some reason and loved it. Either all the coffees I've tasted throughout my life were crap or this coffee is holy. It would explain why so many people come here. When Charlie's done paying he sits down in the chair across me. "So, how's life?". I shrug at his question.

"So so, It's been better, could be worst" I say and take a sip from my cup.

"That's doesn't sound very exciting. How about you make it more exciting by coming to my show tonight hm?" he smiles and arches his eyebrows waiting for my response. 

"Where and what time?"

"At around 9pm where we hung out the other night" Oh right. I'd love to hear him play and sing. "It's gonna be really fun, just come for an hour please" he pulls a puppy dog face and I try not to giggle but it's no use.

"Oh okay, but I don't wanna stay there too late. My mom's coming tomorrow and I don't want her coming home and seeing I'm not there"

"Where is she?" he asks

"She's with her boyfriend. Has been all week" I sigh and tuck my hair behind my ears. I should change the subject, I don't really feel like talking about my relationship with my mother right now. "Are you going to sing, play guitar or the piano or what?"

"I'm going to sing with my brother but he's gonna do a few solos and then I'll do one or two" he pours sugar in his drink and lightly stirs it.

"Sounds like fun" I take one last sip of my coffee before finishing it.

-HARRY POV-

I decided to go back in bed after Lilah left. I heard Louis come in about an hour or two ago but I really can't be arsed to even say hiI stretch my arms and rub my eyes, What time is it? I lean up and look at the ugly ass clock on the wall. Two in the afternoon... fuck. I should get up but I really don't want to. I bury my head in the pillows and finally sit up to remove myself from my bed. Louis barges in the room.

"Ever heard of knocking?" I say. He rolls his eyes at me and throws the 20 bucks he owes me on the bed. "Shit, thanks. Where were you last night?"

"Busy, I suppose you were too. It smells like girl in here" I sniffs the air, I honestly hadn't noticed. "Who is she? Your little blonde girlfriend?" He grins at me.

"Lilah's not my girlfriend you div" I shoot him a dirty look. He jokingly puts his hands up in defense.

"Wow man, I meant Natalie. But I guess the fact that you referred to Lilah suggests something else"

"Piss off" I snap "And shut the door on your way out" and thank God he does. I check my phone to see a text from mum, Charlie and Robbie.

Hey dude, playing tonight wanna come? - Charlie
