"You're Liam? Oh, uh okay. Hi." I awkwardly say. He chuckles. "Can I help you with something?" Okay how am I going to say this... Ugh, this is so much harder than I thought.

"What are you looking at?" I quickly realize I was staring off into space. Oops. "Huh? Oh nothing. So... Um, Liam I need to talk to tyou about something and it's kind of important and I really don't know how you're going to react." I say quite quickly.

"You seem scared... What could it possibly be? Oh where are my manners would you like to come in, love?" "Okay, sure," I say smiling.

I walk into his huge, beautiful house and he leads me into the living room on the couch. I hear screams and yells and arguing coming from the other room, so me being the nosey person I am decided to ask. "What's going on over there?" "Hahaha, just my mates. They're kinda crazy." "Okay... Well before I say it, can I just tell you a bit about myself, Liam?" "Course."

"My name is Grace... Grace Payne. I'm from New York City and just yesterday I found out I have a brother named Liam and my mom lives here as well." His eyes widen and his mouth hangs open.

"S-So you're saying..."

"I'm your sister Liam. Here's my birth certificate." He took it and read it. Yeah, that's my mums- our mums name... Wait here."

He jogged up the stairs and came back about a minute later with a picture in his hands. He handed to me.

"No way. I have that picture too!" I actually did. I took it out of my bag and showed him.

"I always knew I had a sister and a dad. Now I know my sister. Are you just gonna sit there or give your big brother a hug?"

I sprung up from the couch and hugged him. We both laughed.

"So what's the deal with dad?"

I swallowed a lump in my throat. I knew this question would come.

"Well uh, dad... He um, isn't the greatest..." I say on the verge of tears.

"What do you mean?"

"U-Um, our dad has been an alcoholic for as long as I can remember. He was never really around much-" I had to stop myself. I was about to cry to I took a few deep breathes.

"As I got older, like maybe 5 or 6, he started to verbally abuse my mother and I. Telling us how stupid and useless we were. Once I turned around 8, it started getting more physical. He-" The tears flooded my eyes but I refused to let them fall. Liam sat down next to me.

"That's all I want to hear right now. I get how thats hard for you to talk about... I'm sorry I didn't know," "Don't be sorry obviously you were going to talk about your dad."

"Yeah," he smiled. I didn't really know what to say...

"So maybe I should get going," "Haha, no." Liam laughed. "Your my little sister that I just met for the first time! You're staying here. Oh by the way where are you saying?

"At a hotel about 15 minutes away." I reply. "How long are you here for?" "Until I call my mom telling her I want to come home! Haha." "Good. Because we have a lot of catching up to do." I laugh, "We sure do!" Liam laughs, "By the way, were you serious when you said you didn't know who I was?"

"Uh. Yeah, I mean should I know you besides the fact that you're my brother?" he smirks. "Nevermind, come on." He gets up and gestures me to join him. We walk into a room across the house and I see four other boys there watching tv and eating junk food. There backs are facing us. Liam clears his throat, "Whaaaaaaaaaat," they all groan at the sametime. Liam sighs. "We have company." They still don't seem amused. I giggle a bit and then they all turn around.

"Guys, remember when I told you I had a sister but we got separated?" they all nod while starting at me...bringing out my self consciousness. "Well here she is. Meet Grace Payne." Liam smiles. All four boys jump up to meet me.

"Why hello beautiful, I'm Harry Styles and people tell me I a lot like your next boyfriend." he winks at me... Then Liam punches him. But Harry is attactive. "Haha, hello, Harry." I reach out my and he pulls me into a hug instead. Hahahahahahha.

"Hi, I'm Niall... Wanna be best friends?" Aw I like him. He's cute. I giggles, "I would love to be best friends with you!" He opens his arms for a hug and I gladly accept. Then he picks me up and twirls me. I laugh. "Niall. No." Liam says. Niall pouts. Whatta cutie.

"Hi I'm Zayn." Hmm.. He's mysterious. And hot. Very very hot. "Haha hi I'm Grace!" I reach out my hand and he takes it and kisses it. Girl boner...

"ANNNNND IM LOUIS!" Louis yells out of nowhere. I scream, "Jesus! You scared me! Hahaha" Oh hey you're attractive Mr. Louis. But whoa nelly... He's really something. "It's nice to meet you. You're very pretty!" he says and hugs me. I feel myself blushing. I smile at him.

"Alright, what do you guys wanna do?" Liam asks. "Wheres the bathroom? Sorry I haven't been since New York..." they all laughed but little did they know I was serious. "Upstairs 3rd door on the right." "Alright thanks." I make my way up the stairs and as soon as the boys are out of sight I hear various voice's yell, "DIBS!!' Hahhahha what...

-Liam's POV-

"DIBS!!" All the boys scream while fighting with each other. I stand there in disbelief. "Guys!" They ignore me... "Guys!!!" Still ignoring. "GUYS!" They stop and look at me.

"Yes?" Niall says.

"None of you have 'dibs' on my sister!" I say putting air quotes around the word "dibs."

"But why not?!" Harry whines.

"Dude... It's my sister that's weird."

"So?" Zayn says.

I slap my forehead. "Grace is off limits. Am I clear?"

They all groan and say fine.

"But I have a question." Louis says,

"Yes?"

"She didn't seem affected when she saw us. Does she not know who we are?"

"I don't think she does..." I reply.

"Or maybe shes heard of us but doesn't realize who we are.."

-Graces POV-

Whoa. That bathroom was cool! It was so fancy-like. I prance down the hall and make my way down the stairs.

"Or maybe shes heard of us but doesn't realize who we are.." I hear who I think was Harry say.

I jump down the last step and make my way back to the other room to see them all talking. They notice me and quickly stop and look at me.

"Hey Grace want us to show you around London?" Niall asks.

"Yeah! That would be fun!" I say grinning.

"Alright let's go." Louis says with that adorable accent of his. Oh gosh, Grace! Shut up!

We all got our coats and shoes and such and headed out the door. Occasionally I would sneak glances at Louis and I think he did the same. That boy is really something... I can't wait to spend the day with him.
