September 8th was Jordan's Birthday. I was a week through school but luckily his birthday was on a Saturday. Although I was excited to see him, I had no idea what to get him. What do you get for some who is rich? I can't afford anything fancy because I'm a student, it can't be something he already has, obviously. But he already has everything.

I just thought "screw it" and decided to just cook for him since that was the only thing I could think of. Other than something else but I always thought they were like a cop out.

I drove to the house on Friday after class since I wanted to spend as much time with everyone as I could before I had to go back. When I arrived, I was greeted by someone i didn't know.

"Hi, can I help you?" The girl looking about my age with long blonde hair piercing blue eyes said as she looked at me confused.

"Yeah, umm..." I have no idea what to say. Help me! Luckily, Harry saw me and saved me from this awkward situation.

"MADDIE!" He shouted as he rushed down the stairs. He pulled me into the hose and instantly enveloped me into a hug. The blonde girl looked really jealous. "How are you little sis?"
The blonde girls expression relaxed.

"I'm good, I have a lot of work to do but I'm ok. For now." I wasn't that worried but I wanted to do my best and try to get the best grades I could get. If I could get all of these boys to pass their GCSE's then I could do anything, let's be honest. "How are you? Where are the others? And who is this?" I said pointing at the girl behind him.

"Oh, sorry. This is Erin. My girlfriend"

"Wait, I'm gone for less than a week and you get a girlfriend?"

"Kinda. But not really. We've been seeing each other for about six weeks now?" He said turning his head to look at her and then turning back to me. "Sorry I didn't tell you sooner. It's just you were dealing with important stuff"

"Your important too" I said then pushed past him. "Hi. I'm Maddie, Harry's twin sister. It's nice to meet you"

"It's nice to meet you too"

———————————————

I got to know Erin and we quickly became friends. She was at Uni too and she was studying Drama whereas I'm studying Sport and Exercise Science. She was so nice and funny.

The time was 6:00 but some of the guys weren't back yet, including Jordan. We ordered pizzas anyway assuming they would be home soon. We were right and they arrived just before the delivery guy dropped the pizzas off.

Jordan gave me a hug. After that, he kept contact with me in some way. When we were eating dinner, he had his arm draped over my shoulders. When we were watching an movie, we were cuddled up together. I rested my head on his chest and he pulled me closer to him.

We did watch a horror movie though which I was thrilled about. The others, not so much. There all pussies anyway. We watch The Bad Seed which was the least scary horror movie I knew. It's still a great movie though.

"Wait so, this girl is burning her nanny alive in her garage?" Caitlyn asked me.

"Yeah"

"Why" Harry asked discussed.

"Because she didn't want to be put in the pink little electric chair" I said. In my head it made sense. They just looked at me even more confused so I paused it.

"Basically, she "accidentally" killed her friend and her favourite teacher because she wanted the award that her favourite teacher gave her friend instead of her. She killed her old nanny because she grabbed her arm so she pushed her down the stairs and she died. She killed the new nanny by burning her alive because she threatened her with the pink electric chair and kept telling her that she would get caught for killing her friend. She also said she was sleeping with her dad soooo.... Any more questions cuz I'm favourite scene is coming up we're she confesses to her dad?" They all just shook there heads.

"This isn't the worst of it" I reached up to whisper in Jordan's ear. "She tries to kill her dad in the end and then he tries to kill her but he dies."

"For such a small person, you are really scary" he said quite loudly, but I ignored him and I just pressed play, rested my head back on his chest and watched my favourite scene come up on the TV screen.

When the movie finished, we just all headed to to kitchen to clear up and get more food.

"How can you like that?" Harry asked me.

"What do you mean? It's a good movie"

"How are we related" he muttered under his breath but I heard him.

"Well, when a man and a women love each other very much..." I started but was soon cut off.

"No. I know how it works"

"Oh, so dad did give you 'the talk'. I didn't think he had it in him." This made everyone start laughing. Soon everyone calm down.

"We're gonna go to bed" Jordan said pulling my arm towards the stairs.

"So that's what you think of when we've just had that conversation" Dom said still laughing.

"MATE, THAT MY SISTER"

"We'll be sleeping" Jordan shouted back already half way up the stairs.

"We won't really will we?" I whispered to him.

"As long as you're here, neither of us are sleeping."

I did actually get sleep last night. I woke up in a bed that I missed dearly with someone I missed even more. I rolled over to face him but he was still asleep. I stared at him for a bit thinking about how cute he looked.

"Stop staring at me, Mads" he said with is deep morning voice. In my head I was panicking and he could tell. He smirked at me.

"I'm kidding" he said and pulled me close to him. I enjoyed his presence for a minute while inhaling his scent.

"Happy Birthday" I said softly still tired from lack of sleep.

"I just what to stay here forever" he said deeply.

"Well not forever but for a few more minutes"

We finally made it downstairs and everyone was actually awake. Everyone kept looking at us weird but I just shook it off.

Today, we were all going around London and doing lots of different fun things. We went to the Natural History Museum because other than Harry, none of the boys had been. It didn't take long before we left and somehow ended up in Hamley's. Don't ask.

Finally, we surprised him with a tour of the Emirates Stadium. I wasn't proud to be dating an Arsenal fan but it's always fun to watch Liverpool beat them so I can shove it in Jordan's face.

When we got back home, I cooked dinner for everyone but only me and Jordan ate in the kitchen. Everyone else ate in the living room. I made Chicken and potatoes in a tomato sauce. It's an old family recipe that my Nona taught me how to make while Harry was trying to burn down the kitchen.

After dinner, we all watch a movie. (We watched Focus.)

"I love this movie

"I love this movie. It has Will Smith and Margot Robbie in it. What more could you ask for?" I stated.

"You just love every Will Smith film" Harry said from across the room. He wasn't wrong. I even thought Wild Wild West wasn't that bad.

After a while we all decided to go to bed. Some of which went to sleep but others didn't. You can decide who was who.
