CHAPTER XXVIII

December (continuation of the last moment in the last chapter)

"I know." I whispered and before I could say anything more, Louis emerged with a massive rectangular box in his hands.

"This is gift number one." He mumbled as he kissed my forehead.

I unwrapped the present, my family's eyes were burning into the gift as I unwrap it giddily while Louis' eyes were on me the whole time, I could tell. I gasped loudly as I opened the case and lifted it up.

"You got me a guitar!" I gushed as I got it out. I loudly shrieked when I looked at my name that was carved in the curve of the body with glittery silver paint covering it. The guitar was dark purple with stars and the planet Venus. "Thank you! Oh my god!"

"It's for your gigs. I noticed your guitar is chipped in the back and rusty. I had it custom made just for you." Louis stated with pink cheeks.

"Gigs?" Harry questioned with a confused face.

"I, um, I sing at the bar on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, sometimes Saturdays when I'm not busy. It's just a hobby. It doesn't interfere with my grades." I spoke the last sentence while looking at my parents.

"Wow, who are you and what have you done with my sister who's almost too afraid to sing at family parties let alone in front of strangers?!" Gemma gushed as she ruffled my hair.

"As long as you're happy and it does not interfere with your grades as you said, we're more than okay with it." My dad grinned at me.

"Wait, you said gift number one, so you got me more gifts?" I asked as I set my guitar down in its case. Louis chuckled and nodded as he brought out a smaller box.

"It's really from me and the whole gang. We all chipped in for it." Louis said as I opened it.

It was a Pandora charm bracelet with a lot of charms on it. I lifted it up from the box and nudged my wrist towards Louis to help me put it on.

"Thank you, this is too much." I shook my head with a smile.

"You deserve everything, love." He looked at me abruptly before clasping the bracelet. "The clover is from Niall, because he's Irish, so is the mug because he said you met at Starbucks. The lipstick is from Perrie because she said you'll have a lot of makeovers that's going to happen, so is the violet gem because it's a friendship stone, it's for Danielle as well, the flower is from Dani as well because she said you are going to blossom into a great woman someday. The water is from Zayn because you both can't swim and he said that you are vital in the gang, like water in the body. Liam is the book because you share with him your love for books and also the bacon because he knows you love his marinated bacon. And the crown, the planet, the star and the soccer ball are from me."

He blushed and looked down abruptly before continuing to speak while looking into my eyes. I suddenly forgot about my family being the same room as me as I got lost in the blue of his eyes. "I am going to treat you like a princess in everything I do. You are my galaxy, my star, my planet. I revolve around you, you guide me and without you, I don't know who I am."

"Harry, open up!" I said as I bang on his door.

"Leave us alone, Vee!" He shouted back.

"Give me back my boyfriend!" I said louder. "When I told you to get to know him, I meant talking and other things not stealing him from me from the past five days!"

"Oh shut up, you'll have him for yourself when you get back to Manchester!" He screamed, still not opening the door. I can hear my boyfriend, laughing with him inside, traitor, and the sound of the television rumbling as they played FIFA, from what I can hear, inside.
