"Tessa.. No" Someone said silently as Tessa used Joan and I as a launchpad. "I'm so sorry Y/N... oh.. And Joan.."

"It's fine.." I said rolling over to see Tom sitting on his bed with Tessa all over him.

"What time is it..." Joan grumpily stated.

"10am actually.." Tom said finally giving Tessa attention after she calmed down.

"Last I checked it was 5am! When Harrison stumbled in!" I stated.

"Well congratulations.." Tom said with a higher pitched funny tone. "You slept 5 extra hours!"

"Joan do you mind..?" I asked Joan.

"It's ok Y/NN I'll just go sleep in my room.." Joan said dragging my comforter along with him.

"Nice Pajamas.." Tom stated judging my Harry Potter sweat pants.

"Thanks... I would say you too but yours never have anything on them.." I said looking down at the ground.

"Heh yeah.." He chuckled.

"Now if you don't mind as well I'm going to get ready.." I stated.

"Oh! Uhm.. yes of course..." Tom stuttered leaving the room.

I crept forward to the door and locked it just to be safe.. I slipped on a peculiar magenta sweater and some dull teal pants and called it an outfit. I unlocked the door and tried to open it but someone was in front of it.

"Uhm.. Hello?" I asked through the crack of the door.

Tessa immediately jumped up from the front of the door in shock.

"Oh poor Tess.. Sorry..." I said giving her a pat on the head as I left the room.

I headed downstairs and entered the front room and sat on the couch. I picked up my phone and scrolled through Instagram. Nothing really new other than a few pics from this morning from Tom. He had tagged Harrison in one of his photos and I went over to his page and checked him out. There was mostly just modeling like me but one from today stuck out.

"What the.." I said looking at a picture of myself.

It was me just walking down the stairs from like 2 minutes ago. Below he commented, 'Guess staying at the Hollands/L/N's isn't all that bad..'

"HARRISON OSTERFEILD!" I yelled and ran into the kitchen.

"..yeah?" He said looking innocent.

"Explain!" I said showing him the picture.

"When did she get an Instagram.. and why didn't you tell me..." He muttered to Tom.

I didn't say another word and just continued on to the kitchen I grabbed three leftover scones from yesterday and walked up to my room.

"Tessa why are boys so weird.." I said to the dog hoping she would respond.

I shoved a scone in my mouth and looked over the two pictures The one that Harry posted, and the one that Harrison posted. There were multiple comments that kinda drove me nuts.. Like 'So Harry has a girlfriend now?' 'Why is she at the Hollands?' 'Who is she!' 'Who are the L/N's?' 'The Hollands have some explaining to do!'

"That's it.. I'm done..." I stuttered.

I took a picture of myself with Tessa and layed back down in bed. I began typing a sort of rant..

'My name is Y/N L/N! Me and my brother Joan were orphaned when we were with the Hollands and we have stayed with them since! I am not Harry, Sam, Tom, or Harrison's girlfriend! I am a friend who stays with them because I have nowhere else to go!'

I posted the picture and the rant tagging all of the Hollands and Harrison.

"Mrs.. Holland!" I stuttered as she came into the room a few minutes later.

"Come on.." She ushered.

We both came downstairs and I came face to face with everyone.

"Y/N..." Sam stated. "We're sorry.."

"Thanks..." I said. "I'm gonna take a walk..."

"Why not a drive?" Tom said picking his keys up.

"Sure.."

I grabbed my phone from my room and came out to the front yard.

"Is Harrison coming?" I asked. "Not that I mind! I'm just wondering.."

"Harrison's staying.." Tom said unlocking the car.

"Just.. Us..." I said.

"Are you ok with that?" He stuttered.

"Yeah your like a... brother to me..." I said with a slight pause.

"Oh.." He said.

"Let's go!" I said with a nervous laugh.

We both hopped in the car and he started to back up and into the road.

"Is there something wrong with me thinking your my brother..?" I said playfully trying to mess with him.

Tom slammed on the breaks.

"N-NO!" He stuttered.

"Mother of.. Hey don't do that!" I said reacting to the sudden stop.

"Sorry.." He said.

"Harry did the same thing a few nights ago.. When I said your like brothers.." I stated when we started to drive off.

"D-Did he now.." Tom stated.

"Mhm he was all certain about me absolutely not being related to you guys.." I said looking down at the floorboards.

"Well your not.. Your a L/N.. not a Holland.." Tom said trying not to look at me.

"Maybe I should get officially adopted then.. Me and Joan both.." I said sticking my tongue out.

"NO!" Tom stated.

I kinda sat in shock and silence.

"Why not..?" I asked.

"Can.. We start over Y/N..." Tom said.

"What do you mean..?" I asked.

"Just forget about me ignoring you and forget about everything bad between us.." Tom said.

"That would be... Nice...." I stated.

"Look I don't wanna be your brother ok... Brothers are bothers.. I want to be your friend... For now.." Tom stuttered.

"Then friends it is... Family Friends.." I said looking him straight in the eye once we hit a light.

"Yeah.." Tom said leaning forward.

"W-What are you doing?" I said confused as he was getting closer to my face.

"Nothing! I just.. Saw something behind you..."

I giggled and looked back out the window. He was watching me again. I didn't mind...
