Kally's P.O.V
Sadly, I couldn't stay for Gemma's birthday dinner because my aunt's birthday is today. I still managed to see her before I left for California, though. I've been in Los Angeles for about an hour now, and I was completely alone. Well, not really, my cousin Ashley was here with me. It felt kind of weird to be here without Harry, but I'm used to being away from him. I'll go back to London on Friday, I'd rather go back tomorrow, but Ashley insisted on me staying just a little bit longer. "So, how are you and your husband?" She smirks at me. "We're fine, Ashley." I giggle. "Well that's good. Can't wait to see my little cousin." She smiles, and rubs my bump. "Same. I'm excited to be a mom, yet very nervous." I say. "It won't be that bad." She shrugs. "Are you serious? There's so much responsibility, Ashley! And besides, I don't want to make the same mistakes my mom did." I say. "Don't worry! You'll be a great mom I know it!" She smiles. "I sure hope so..." I say. "You will." She says. "I just realized that I can't have any wine. Boo." I pout. "Don't worry, I'll drink some fruit punch with you." She giggles. "Thanks." I giggle.
~Later on that night~
I was sitting at the dinner table with my family. I was sitting next to Ashley and my mom. My mother and I have been talking a lot more lately which she liked, and to be honest, I liked it, too. "We should take a selfie." I say to Ashley. "We really should." She says. "Well, let's pull out the phone shall we?" I smirk. We take a picture together, and then post it on Instagram with the caption:
"Celebrating my aunt's birthday with this chick! xx"
I laughed to myself as Ashley stuck her tongue out, and I just looked at her with wide eyes. "Can we take a picture, Kally?" My mom asks. "Sure." I smile. We take a picture, and then I post that one on Instagram, too with the caption:
"Me and my mommmm! Love you! xx"
And I meant. My mom has changed, and she changed just for me which made me feel like I meant something to her. And now I know that I do.
Harry's P.O.V
I smile down at my phone as I see Kally's picture with her mother. It was good to see them getting along. "What are smiling at?" Gemma asks. "Just a picture of Kally and her mom." I say. "Can I see?" She asks. I show her the picture, and she smiles. I like it, and then like the picture of her and her cousin. I decide to shoot her a quick message saying:
"Glad to see you and your mom getting along! xx -H"
I wait, but not for very long, and she replies with:
"Good! Because I know that's what you've always wanted! xx -K"
I smile, and turn my phone off, and continue the rest of the dinner.
Kally's P.O.V
I sip the grape juice that was in my wine glass, pretending it was wine. I decided to post a pic of that, too with the caption:
"It's grape juice, I promise! 😂"
I eat my dinner. For some reason, I was really hungry. Maybe it's because I haven't eaten since yesterday. "So, do you know that guy I was talking to you about earlier?" Ashley asks me. "Yeah, why?" I ask. Ashley points over to the tall guy with a wine glass in his hand, talking to my mother. "Oh, not bad!" I say. "Yep! He asked me out on a date!" She smirks. "Nice!" I smirk. He sees us staring at him, and we both turn our heads quickly, and try our hardest not to laugh. "Here he comes! Act normal!" I whisper. "Hello ladies." He smiles. "Hello Jason." Ashley says, with a smile. Jason. Of course that's his name. "How are you two?" He asks. "I'm fine." Ashley and I say in sync. We both giggle at ourselves. "I never seen twin cousins before." He chuckles, and so do we. "What do you mean?" I ask. "Well, you two dress alike, look alike, and you sometimes finish each others sentences and say things at the same time." He says. "Ooh." Ashley and I say together. "See!" He chuckles. We do, too. "We see!" Ashley laughs. After we get done laughing, he says, "Well, I'll talk to you girls later!" We both smile. "Okay! Bye!" I say. "Bye!" Ashley says.
Harry's P.O.V
I arrive home, and decide to call Kally. "Hello?" She says. "Hey babe!" I smile to the sound of her voice. "Hey Bear!" She says. "So, how was dinner?" I ask. "It was good, did you like my grape juice in a wine glass trick?" She giggles. "Yeah, you almost gave me a heart attack!" I laugh. "OW! YOU'RE GIVING ME A HEART ATTACK!" She says. And I laugh. "Silly girl." I chuckle. "YOU'RE GIVING ME A HEART ATAAAAACK!" She sings. "Stop!" I laugh. "You know you like it." She giggles, and so do I. "Whatever." I chuckle. "So, how was dinner?" She asks. "It was good. Everyone asked where you were." I say. "Oh." She says. "Yeah, everyone said hi by the way." I say. "That's nice." She giggles. "Yep. So, who was that guy you were with?" I ask. Her cousin, Ashley, posted a picture of her and Kally with a guy. "Oh, just some guy Ashley likes." She says. "Oh." I say. "Yeah, did you think I was cheating on you or something?" She giggles. "Well, I got to say you scared me for a second." I chuckle. "Sorry, Haz." She giggles. "It's fine." I say. "I don't think I can wait until Friday.." I trail off. "It'll come faster than you'll know it." She says. "I sure hope so because I miss you like crazy." I say. "I feel the same." She whispers. "I mean, I really do miss you, it feels like I've been away from you for months. I haven't been able to sleep properly without you here. You know how it gets." I say. "I understand, Haz, but one more day and that's it. After tomorrow, we'll be reunited again." She says, and I smile to myself. "Okay." I whisper. "Listen, you get some rest, and we'll talk tomorrow, okay?" She says. "Okay." I say. "Okay, Haz. Goodnight! Bye!" I stop her. "Wait!" I say. "What?" She asks. "I love you.." I smile. "I love you, too, Haz. Now get some sleep." She says. "Okay." I say. And with that, I fall asleep.
