I'm Nialls cousin. No big deal. Right?

10. No stacks on the Rory

I was dreaming. It was a very nice dream. I think there was zombies. And I think me and the boys were hiding in my old school. And I'm pretty sure that me and Harry were kissing. WAIT. WHAT?! Stupid subconscious. I would NEVER kiss Harry. Haha...eew?

A sudden noise startled me straight out of my trance like sleeping state. I reached out for the phone on my table and answered the call.

"Hellaoh" I managed to force out a greeting. Who the hell calls at two thirty... In the afternoon. Okay maybe I should let them live.

"Hey Aurora!" a cheery voice that I recognized as Harriets chirped thorugh the phone. "Just called to ask if you could come in tomorrow. Annaleise and Tawni have caught something and are quarentining themselves, Jaz is at a wedding and tommorrow it's Wednesday so it's one of out busy days and I KNOW you have been saving all of your vacation time from the past year for these couple of weeks but could you PLEASE come in today!" She rambled. I should probably mention that Harriet Is my boss at the daycare I work at. I had saved up all vacation days and time off so I could spend time with the boys this year. I had been called in a couple of times in these few weeks. But I loved my job so I wasn't complaining. (I was however complaining about attending Uni a couple of times for lectures. Bleh.) I especially loved the little family of three that went every day. They were in the foster system and their carer dumped them whenever she could. It was so sad seeing three gorgeous kids o through such a rough time. But oh well. I can't do anything about it.

"Sure thing Harry-girl. I'll be there at seven. Deal?"

"Deal. See you there babe.". I never got why girls call ech other babe.

"Seeya HG.". I hung up and put my phone back. Well I might as well wake up now. I grabbed my glasses and stumbled onto the floor.

And stepped on something squishy.

"Oooww" The USO moaned. (Unidentified squishy object).

I saw the mop of curly hair and jumped back in surprise. Knocking Mr Bleepy off the table. Stupid clumsiness.

"Sorry Haz. But may I ask why you are asleep on my floor...Again?"

He dragged himself up and tried to explain himself.

"So basically the boys were teasing me and I hid. And may have fallen asleep." he mumbled.

"Harry youre hopeless!" I teased. "Now lets go face those mean boys. And after that I'll face my mother and tell her I need to work tommorrow."

So, telling mum went easier than expected. I thought that since this is our second last day together she would have flipped. But she didn't. There is definitely something up with dad. Why ISN'T he here?

I pushed those thoughts aside as I pulled into my usual park at the daycare center. I checked the car clock and saw that it was only 6:56. Four minutes early. That should earn me brownie points.

"Morning Harry!" I called out as the bell announced my appearance.

"Hey Hun. Thanks so much for coming in again." Harriet materialized in front of me. I know that she was older an slightyly taller than me but she was the cutesy thing ever. She was twenty four with naturally curly orangey red hair an she always wore little old school dresses and was the sweetest girl ever. "You are probably the only person I know who could handle all the kids by yourself. You are AMAZING!"

"Naw shucks. You're making me blush. Have you set up yet?" I asked.

She looked guiltily at the ground. "No. I got here about five minutes ago, and well, Jojo called me so..." She trailed off awkwardly and tugged on her dark brown dress. Naww, Jojo was her boyfriend of three years and the were the cutest couple out there.
