After catching up at the Café, Liam and I mount our bikes and ride to Nando's, which, luckily, is just down the street. When we walk through the door, Liam instantly goes to the cashier, and I follow, listening to everything he orders.

"Um... I'll have... One extra hot, one hot, one medium, and one lemon and herb Peri-Peri Chicken, please. And can I also get some Peri-Peri Sauce to go with it? And how about...some Peri-Peri nuts, an altogether now, A superbrock beer, a Chocolate and a Vanilla Gelado, Chips, Spicy Rice, Garlic Bread, and Corn on the Cob. Thanks, that'll be all."

(A/N: Sorry if this isn't right, I've never been to Nando's, I just looked up their menu online XD)

"Whoa, Liam," I exclaim when he finishes. "You just ordered half the menu!" Liam smirks. "I ordered just the right amount, you'll see." I raise my eyebrows at him, but he just walks out the door, as if ordering a meal that seemed fit for 8 people was normal for him.

When we get home I start to realize what Liam meant.

"We're home!" I shout. "We've brought half of the Nando's menu for Niall!"

Niall's head pops up almost instantly.

"You have Nando's?!" he questions excitedly. "Give it to me!" Laughing, Liam and I toss him the bag stuffed with food.

"You might not be able to eat it all, Nialler." I say, seeing him start on the food. Liam just chuckles. Am I missing something, or is it just me?

~.~

Half an hour later, Niall has finished the entire bag of Nando's. Maybe Liam was right, we did order just the right amount.

Oh, wait!

I remember reading somewhere that Nando's is Niall's favorite restaurant! What a coincidence, I just wanted to stop by and get something for Niall because I thought he'd be hungry.

Liam looks at me, the look in his eyes saying "What did I tell you?"

I stick my tongue out at him, and laugh when Niall asks, "You got any more, Rach?"

"No, Niall!" I answer, still giggling. "You should be getting to bed, anyways, its 10 o'clock!" Niall groans in response to this, but heads upstairs.

I start cleaning up the remains of his meal when Mum walks in.

"Hey, honey!" she cooes, sugar sweetness oozing from her words. She wants something from me. I waste no time getting to the point.

"Okay Mum, you obviously want something. What is it?" I chuckle.

The woman groans, realizing I'm onto her.

"Sweetheart, you know my friend Melanie who is about to have a baby?" Mom asks

"Yeah...?" My voice trails of into a question. I don't like where this is going.

"Well, I promised her I'd come to stay with her and help her around the house before the baby arrives. She's due in two weeks, you know."

"So, let me get this straight," I start. "You're leaving me with four boys I hardly even know, and my brother, who I haven't seen in six months? What a safe choice, Mum!" My eyes can't help but instinctively roll.

"Oh, Rachel," Mum sighs, ruffling my hair. "Don't say it like that! You make it sound like these boys are completely untrustworthy, which just isn't true. You'll be left with your brother, and you're 19! You should be able to take care of yourself, and if not, Liam will take care of you."

"Why can't I just stay at Miley's house?" I whine.

"You and your brother need to get to know each other better, and you need to get to know the boys, too." My mother lifts an eyebrow, and her tone softens. "This is important to Liam, Rachel. We need to support him."

"Fine." I mutter.

"Good." Mum nods approvingly. It's clear that she's won this argument. "I'm leaving tomorrow, and I'll probably be gone for about a week or two."

An idea forms in my head. "Mum, can Miley stay over while you're gone, too? We haven't spent any real time together in ages. Plus, I'd feel more comfortable around all these boys with another girl in the house." Mum sighs. "

"Of course she can come over, what with all that extra room we have in this house." She mutters sarcastically, sighing. I roll my eyes. No matter what, my mother and I just can't seem to see eye to eye.

*Later that night*

*Harry's POV *

I lie in my bed, facing the ceiling. I think about Rachel, with her long, wavy, hair, and brown eyes. I can't believe I tried to kiss her! What was I thinking? I hope she doesn't tell Liam, he'll kill me for sure.

Louis is a problem, too. He'd probably be super mad if he found out. He seems to really like Rachel, and he has dibs. Now that I think of it, she seems to like him, too. He'd probably just curl up his fists, wait until Rachel wasn't around, and then proceed to beat the crap out of me while yelling some pretty colorful stuff.

Both of them will kill me if they find out I tried to kiss her! They'll wait until I'm at my weakest, then team up on me. Crap, I should not have tried to kiss her, but I was so certain that she liked me!

I just hope she doesn't tell Liam.

Uh-Oh.

What if Rachel tells Liam?

dun Dun DUN!
