"Happy birthday!" My mom shouted as I walked down the stairs in my pajama's.

"Thanks mom" I smiled as I saw her special waffles for me.

They had sprinkles in them and my favorite fruit on the side, along with a side of honey.

"There are presents for you in the living room, but eat breakfast first" She smiled before grabbing a cup of coffee and running upstairs.

I just chuckled, pouring my honey on my pancakes and eating them.

"Happy birthday honey" My dad smiled as I entered the living room.

It made my day ten times better that he talked to me and wished me a happy birthday.

For my birthday from my parents I got a bunch of new clothes, giftcards, and receipts incase I wanted to return anything.

"Emma! Kelly's here!" My mom shouted from down stairs.

I had just finished putting up my new clothes I had gotten.

"Hey girly!" Kelly smiled, handing me a gift bag.

Inside was a picture frame of us from my "birthday party" and new scrunchies.

"Thank you Kels" I smiled, hugging her tight.

"I love you Em, I'll be back later for your birthday dinner that your parents throw every year" She rambled on before walking out.

I chuckled, knowing exactly what she was talking about.

Every year since I could remember my parents threw a dinner party at my house for my birthday, it mostly consisted of their lawyer friends and their kids which were around my age.

Me and Kelly usually just stayed in my room and came down stairs for dinner and cake.

I stripped out of my pajama's I was still in and slipped on a new baby pink dress my parents bought me. It was simple and had spaghetti straps, and the color reminded me of Harry.

I slipped on my old white vans, grabbed my keys, and left to go get coffee.

I went to the coffee shop by Harry's house that he seen leaving, hoping that maybe I would see him.

I got my usual order, and waited at a table, looking at my phone.

There were no further pictures of him in LA, just that one.

I knew he was probably home but I couldn't intrude on him, and I was scared that he didn't want to see me yet.

My name was called and I grabbed my coffee, I took one last look and realized that Harry wasn't here.

"It took forever for me to park" Kelly laughed walking in my room.

"I don't know how many people they invited" I smiled, sitting up on my bed.

"There are some really cute boys though" She winked, nudging me.

"I'm already hooked on someone else" I sighed, looking down at my phone when it buzzed.

She stared at too once we saw the name that lit up on the screen.

"Emma don't" She breathed as I reached for it.

"I have to" I blurted, grabbing it and rushing to my bathroom.

"Hello?" I answered softly, leaning against my bathroom door.

"Emma" He breathed, his voice filling me with comfort.

"Hi" I mumbled, closing my eyes that were filling with tears.

"I- I'm at your house but there are so many cars here" He stuttered through the phone.

"Its my birthday" I told him softly, a tear falling down my cheek.

"I know, it says so in your twitter bio" He chuckled, causing me to chuckle also.

"Can you please come here?" He asked me with the softest tone.

I just hung up, opening my bathroom and looking at Kelly.

"I went on a walk" I told her, she just gave me a nod, she understood.

I snuck through the house, saying thank you to the adults that told me happy birthday before I walked out of the door.

I practically sprinted as I saw Harry's tall body leaning on his car and looking at his phone.

"Harry!" I shouted, his eyes looking up from his phone and too me.

He ran towards me too.

My arms wrapped around his neck as he lifted me up in the air, squeezing me tight.

"Oh my angel" He breathed into my hair, letting my legs wrap around his waist.

"I missed you" He whispered, setting me down gently.

"Please don't leave me again" I begged, gripping his arm as a tear slipped down my cheek.

"I won't Emma" He smiled at me, wiping the tear from my cheek.

"I love you" Harry smiled again, those honest green eyes boring into mine.

"And I'm okay with everyone knowing about us, let them say something, let them judge, if it means I have a girl who truly cares for me and loves me for who I am, then so be it" He rambled on, looking into my eyes.

"I love you Harry" I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Look at me" He smiled, grabbing my cheek with one hand when I did.

He just looked at me, his face getting closer and closer with each second.

With just one more second his lips touched mine, and the fireworks erupted again, our lips fit like puzzle pieces.

"Mine" He smiled as he pulled away.

"I got you a present" Harry chuckled, walking to his car.

The infamous baby pink wrapping paper was wrapped around a rectangular box.

"You need these" He smirked as I ripped the wrapping paper open and saw the classic red vans box.

"How did you know my size?" I chuckled, looking in the tongue if the brand new white slip on vans.

"You left a pair of shoes at my house" He shrugged, watching me admire the brand new white shoes.

"Thank you Harry" I smiled, wrapping for arms around his waist.

"Anything for you angel" He kissed my cheek, pulling away.

"I hate to do this, but your parents did throw you a party" He sighed, his green eyes looking at me.

"A party with all of their lawyer friends and kids" I scoffed, putting a hand on my hip.

"Its still in honor of you, and your dad doesn't like me very much" He pointed out.

"But I wanna stay with you" I frowned, grabbing his rough hand.

"I'll see you tomorrow my angel" He smiled brightly, squeezing my hand back.

"Come here" He said softly, pulling me in.

I rested my head on his chest, breathing in that familiar smell of vanilla.

I looked up to see his lips puckered up for a kiss.

I chuckled before pressing my lips to his.
