Harry's POV

"I miss you too, baby," I say, smiling like an idiot. "I'll see you later, okay?"

"Okay." I hang up and put my phone down. Niall and Louis start laughing.

"Shut up you guys," I say, pulling into Niall's driveway.

"You look like an idiot, Haz. Look at the smile on your face," Niall says, poking my face. I swat his hand away and laugh. I can't help it.

"Get out of my car, Niall," I say as he and Louis continue to make fun of me. He laughs and opens the door.

"Thanks, Harry. I owe you one," he says before shutting the door. I wave as Louis crawls into the front seat.

"Watch it, Lou! New car here," I say, wiping the dirt off the furniture.

"Sorry, mom. Let's go, I want to watch a movie."

"Lana asked if I could go to her house later. She sounded upset. You know what, why don't you come back with me. El is with her." He nods and I pull out, heading back to my place. I wonder why Lana sounded so sad on the phone. That prick better not have touched her. When this thought occurs to me I speed up a little, anxious to get home.

"Harry, slow down. You're going to kill me and I'm too pretty to die."

"You're funny," I say sarcastically, turning onto my street. I'm disheartened when I see that Lana isn't back yet.

"You've really got it bad, don't you?" he says, laughing at the disappointment that is apparently written on my face.

"You've met Lana, right?"

"Once or twice, yes."

"Then you understand," I say simply, turning off the car and getting out. He laughs and does the same. "Let's get a pizza or something. I'm starving. Niall ate all the food we got earlier."

"I'm not surprised. I'll call them. I'll get a large in case the girls want some." He dials the pizza place as we go inside. My mum is pacing around in the living room.

"Hi mum."

"Harry Edward Styles! Where have you been!"

"What do you mean? It's like 9:30..."

"Harry don't be smart with me. I drove past the park earlier and I saw Zayn with Liam. I'm no idiot. I know they were here to see you. What the hell happened?"

I'm a little taken back by the yelling. My mother never yells. Or swears. She's really upset right now. "It's not a big deal, mum. We just needed to talk."

"Don't lie to me. Did you get in a fight? Did they hurt you?"

"Do I look like I got in a fight?" I ask, holding my arms out a little. "It wasn't a big deal, alright? Niall and I just wanted to talk to them. Nothing happened. I'm fine."

She stares at me for a minute before hugging me. "Don't scare me like that."

"I'm fine, mum." She releases me and pats me on the arm. I smile down at her before she goes upstairs.

"Woah, what was that about?" Louis asks, walking past me and sitting on the couch.

"She kind of knows some things about Zayn. Not a lot, but enough. She knows he's why I needed to leave. She's not stupid, she knows he's dangerous."

"Good to know you're mum isn't a psycho. Pizza should be here in twenty minutes."

"I wonder when the girls will be back," I say, going to the window and pulling the curtain back a little so I can look across the street. I could hear that Lana was upset on the phone. It's really bothering me for some reason. Plus we haven't really talked all day. That doesn't happen very often.

"A watched pot never boils, mate."

I turn and smirk at Louis. He shrugs and lays on his back.

"You're strange, you know that?" I say, flopping down on the recliner. I pull my phone out of my pocket. No texts.

Why am I being so needy right now?

The pizza comes fifteen minutes later. I go to the door and pay for it. When the delivery guy leaves I see Lana's dad's car pull in their driveway.

"Louis, they're back!" I yell, sliding my shoes on. He walks over and does the same. We walk across the street with the pizza. "Why hello, ladies. And Stanley. Pizza, anyone?"

They turn and look at us. Lana smiles at me and my heart starts to race. I haven't seen her smile today. El greets Lou and I walk up to my gorgeous girlfriend.

"I'm totally stuffed. But thank you. She's in heels, so it doesn't take much effort for her to reach my lips with hers softly. I missed that.

"More for me then." I smirk at her. "You look amazing, by the way."

"Thank you. Let's go inside."

We all follow her dad inside the house. I put the pizza on the island and take some plates out. I turn to see Louis already devouring a piece right over the box. I shake my head at him and put the plate down in front of him while I take a piece for myself. The girls both sit on the couch. Lana removes her shoes, but El puts her feet up on the coffee table with them still on.

"El, those shoes are the highest pair I own. Your feet must be dying right now," Lana says.

"They're too pretty to take off. I want to wear them forever," El responds.

I walk in and sit on the other side of Lana. She leans against me a little while I eat. "What's the big deal with the shoes?"

Eleanor gasps. "These are the most amazing shoes on the planet."

"They're Louboutin's. Eleanor's dad refuses to let her get some. My dad got these for me for my birthday over the summer," she explains. I laugh and shake my head.

"Why you girls feel so strongly about your shoes I will never understand."

"Alright everyone, scoot over!" Lou says loudly, waving us down the couch so he can sit down. Lana slides closer to me and I set my plate down so I can wrap my arm around her. Louis squeezes in between the armrest and Eleanor. "This is cozy," he says, putting an arm around El.

"Are we okay?" I whisper quietly in Lana's ear. She looks up at me and puts a hand against my cheek.

"Of course. I'm sorry I got so crazy today."

"You were upset, it's fine. I was an ass. I'm sorry too." I lean down to kiss her.

"Alright, you two, that's enough. Break it up." Lana laughs and pulls back, rubbing her nose against mine.

"Louis, why are you such a pain in my ass tonight?" I ask, pulling Lana against me tighter.

"You're just so fun to bug, Styles."

"I'm getting some pizza," El says, struggling to get up from the couch.

"How are you hungry? We ate so much food tonight," Lana says, swivelling to look at her. El just shrugs and picks up a piece. Lana looks at me and shrugs as well. "Screw it. I'm having one." She kisses me and goes into the kitchen, standing next to Eleanor to eat some pizza.

"You know," Louis says to me, "it's quite impressive that our girlfriends can eat so much and stay so hot."

"Are you referring to mine as well?" I ask, turning to face him. "The one you also claim is like a sister to you? That's just a little weird, Lou."

He scrunches his face and the girls laugh as they sit back down on the couch. "Don't be creepy, Louis," Lana says, taking a bite of her slice. We all talk and joke for a while. We end up finishing the pizza, which really surprises me. Those girls really can eat.

"Okay, Louis. I think you're going to have to roll me to my car," El says, leaning against him. He laughs and stands up. "I'll text you tomorrow, Lan." She puts her hands in Louis's and he pulls her into a standing position.

"See you two later. Don't have too much fun," Lou says before he walks out the door. Lana lays down on her back and puts her head on my lap. She closes her eyes as I stroke her hair for a while.

"Aren't you going to ask me what I did tonight?"

She looks up at me. "No."

"Why not?"

"I trust you. And I know you're okay. That's enough for me."

"Are you sure?"

She nods and sits up. She turns and leans against me again, laying her legs over mine and putting her arms around me. "I'm sure."

"What happened with you tonight? It sounded like you were crying on the phone."

"I was." I look down at her and wait for an explanation. She sighs. "Aaron was just being himself. Eleanor helped me out, it was fine. Then I was alone and I just started missing you. I got sad."

I chuckle and kiss the top of her head. "That's adorable."

"Shut up," she says, laughing a little. We stay like that for a while. I love that we can just sit in silence without being uncomfortable. It makes me feel so...peaceful.

"I love you," I say after a while, hugging her tighter to me. She looks up at me.

"Do you want to stay here tonight?" she asks, reaching up to brush her fingers through my curls.

"You're dad is here, isn't he?"

"Yea, you'd have to sneak in later. I don't want to be alone tonight. Plus I missed you today. We have some time to make up for." I smile and lean down to kiss her.

"I'll be here. I'll have to wait for my mum and Robin to fall asleep, though."

"That's fine. I'll leave the back door open for you." She kisses me again. I get up and go to the door with her following. "I'll see you later?" she asks, wrapping her arms around my torso. I cup her face in my hands.

"You will. I'll text you when I'm coming." I kiss her forehead and go back to my house.
