"yo, i'll tell ya what i want, what i really, really want," i say into the microphone.

"so tell me what you want, what you really, really want," anne continues.

"i wanna, i wanna, i wanna, i wanna, i wanna, really, really, really wanna zigzag aye," gemma finishes.

"woo!" anne and i applaud her.

"if you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends," we sing in unison.

"gotta get with my FRIENDS!" desmond sings the echo.

"make it last forever, friendship never-" we point our microphones towards the maid who had just walked in.

"ENDS!" the maid sings in her latin accent.

yes, we are singing "wannabe" by the spice girls.

anne suggested we do a little karaoke after dinner.

and who was i to say no?

"what are you guys doing?" a confused voice interrupts our singing.

we all stop and turn towards the doorway.

harry stands at the entrance staring at us...judging us.

"h-harry," anne breathes in embarrassment.

"yo," i say holding up a peace sign, tying to play it cool and normal.

"how long were you standing there?"

"long enough"

"harry, this is a perfectly normal situation," desmond says.

"is it dad? is it?"

"yes," we all say in unison nodding our heads.

he rolls his eyes and walks away.

"well then," i say.

"all in favor of going out for dessert say, i," desmond says.

"i!" everyone yells including the maid.

Harry

"harry?" a voice interrupts my thoughts.

i turn towards the voice only to find who i wouldn't have expected.

shit.

"hey, how are you-"

"don't fucking "hey, how are you" me! jake told me what you said about me," she says.

"what ever he said is a lie," i say.

"fuck you harry, fuck you," she says and flips me off as she heads off to jake's door.

"ah fuck," i whisper as she slams the door.

i replayed the memory in my head.

why am i such a fucking idiot?

i roll over on my bed and breathe in my scent from the pillow.
