I've been at harrys for a few days and today is the day we go to his mum's house for dinner, as happy as I am that Harry is allowing me to this side that he hides. I am petrified.

I'm currently in his shower, I was up at five am due to my nerves. I've met his mum before but she just called me names so I'm not sure if she's a huge fan of mine.

As I lather up my hair with a conditioner, I hum to myself whilst I do it, I would usually play music but I don't want to wake him up. He kept tossing and turning in the night. I feel as if he had a bad night due to the dinner tonight.

I take deep breaths as I roll my head back and let the water stream down my body, I turn to face the shower head, washing all the suds off of my body. Trying to wash away the nerves.

I step out of the shower, wrapping a towel around my head and body, I lean over the sink and stare at myself in the mirror.

"Why are you up so early" I just notice Harry standing behind me by the door.

"Shit, Harry, how long have you been standing there?" he has just woken up, as he's rubbing his eyes and his movements are sloppy.

He comes up behind me caging me in, I turn to face him, his eyes are still puffy. I stroke his hair behind his ear.

"Long enough, again why are you up so early?"

"Couldn't sleep, why are you up early?" it can't be later than half five,

"Bed was empty" he nestles his face into the crook of my neck, when he says things like that it makes my heart flutter.

"Why don't we go back to bed, it's early and we don't have anything to do today" I know I don't, I run my hand over his shoulders as he cuddles into me.

"I have to go to the bar today, come with me?" He hasn't moved from the position he's in, his face still in my neck.

"Won't Liam be there, I don't want anymore unnecessary drama, especially since Eden doesn't know what he's said." I don't have the balls to tell Eden, purely because I know she'd back Liam.

"He will be there yes, but so will I" he moves his face to look at me, my guess is to analyse me.

"I get that but I don't know, I don't want you and Liam to argue over me" that earns me a scowl.

He stands up and crosses his arms in front of me, towering over me. Is this meant to be intimidating?

"Leave that to me, you're coming, I want you there" I'm not going to win this, so I give up and agree to going with him.

I walked straight past him, I took the towel off of my head and discarded it onto the floor. Harry surprises me by pulling the towel off of my body, so I'm standing here naked, I glare at him over my shoulder.

I don't bother to turn around, I carry on walking into his room and grabbing the t-shirt I left on the bed, I place it over my head and I can sense Harry behind me.

"Why are you getting dressed, I have other activities we could do that would occupy our time." he strokes his hands up my thighs, lifting the hem of the shirt exposing my bare ass.

"What kind of activities?" I'm playing into this.

He pushes my body down into the bed, arse in the air and face turns to the side. I look over at Harry who has a mischievous grin on his face.

"This sweet ass, look at you all bare for me." he grabs a handful of my ass, I arch my back slightly hoping to gain some relief.

I have no words for him, my mind has gone completely blank. He can go from sweet and caring back to the devil in a matter of seconds, he gives me whiplash,

"Why so quiet down there, not got anything to say now?" he's taunting me, trying to get a rise out of me.

"I thought you had something for us to do, maybe i'll go and grab my box and do it myself." I know I'm pushing my luck here.

"Ahh the little black box, don't tempt me."

"Little, don't insult my box." That sounds a little bit dirty.

I see him kneel down behind me, kissing the backs of my thighs. This is very intimate for me right now. I squirm at the way he nips and sucks at my skin.

"Your box is mesmerising," I can't help but chuckle at the way he calls my vagina a box.

"Please don't refer to me vagina as a box." I stand up and turn so I'm sitting in front of him, he places his hands on my thighs.

"Sorry, your pussy." he enunciates that word, which makes me cringe.

I cover my mouth and laugh, a bellowing laugh, throwing my head back. He starts to laugh with me, I like moments like this.

"Can we please get back into bed?" As much as I love his hands all over my body, it is way too early to be participating in cardio.

"Yes, come on." I don't bother putting on any underwear, as I crawl into his bed, he walks around and gets in his side.

I love the way he doesn't pressure me into being sexual with him, he understand my boundaries, which I know is the bare minimum but it still makes me happy.

He wraps his arm around me, pulling me closer to him. I wrap my arm around his torso, tracing over his fern tattoos.

It's comforting being able to lay here, in Harry's arms and not have to worry about conversation. The silence is comforting to him and me.

"So this dinner, anything I need to worry about?" I remind myself, I actually do not know much about harry when it comes to deep stuff, he keeps himself quite closed off in regards to family.

"Where to fucking start babe." well that sounds fantastic.

"How about from the beginning?" I try and be funny with my tone but I don't think he gets my humour as he stays looking up at the ceiling.

"I have twin half brothers, zac and Lucas. There both 17" how the fuck did I not know that.

"You have siblings, since uh when" I slightly sit up and face him.

"Since seventeen years ago"

"Okay smart ass" I roll my eyes but sit up, kneeling next to him.

"There my stepdads, if you could even call him that. He's been in and out of my mums life for years he left when the twins where born. Only you and Niall know about them"

"Why?" I'm confused why don't more people know, how don't people know.

"It's not something I like to announce, need to keep my family safe as much as they hate me." Safe?

"Why safe?"

"I'm just protective over my family, as much as I hate being linked to them I only want them to be safe." Okay there's more to that but I'll curb that for now.

"Okay tell me more, what are the twins like?"

"Noisy, they play rugby so we are the complete opposite, I hated sport." I can't imagine him playing rugby.

"Is that all?" He isn't giving me much to go on.

"Pretty much, I was 10 when they were born so I stayed out of the way for the most part and Dave hated me so....but be wary of Dave, you need to stay by my side the whole night okay!"

"Yes boss" I salute him, he starts to tickle me.

"Don't get all sassy now, I'll have you over my knee"

"Uh empty promises" we fall into a loud laughter, the happiness I feel when I'm with Harry is unmatched.

A few hours later and I sit in Harry's office, sat in his chair as he sorts through the filing cabinet, he looks very serious.

I can hear him huff and puff as he pulls out files and chucks them into the floor. I open his laptop and scroll through Pinterest, looking for holiday inspiration.

I want to take Harry away, away from all of this stress even if it is only for a week, I can tell he is beyond stressed about tonight.

"Whatcha looking at?" He comes and hovers over me.

"Holidays, I think we should take a trip." He nods, fixating his gaze back onto the board I've created with a variety of resorts.

"Spain looks nice" wow calm down with the enthusiasm.

"Jheee you sound so enthusiastic babe" I roll my eyes and he just stares at me.

"What now?"

"Nothing, I just like you calling me babe" I forgot I'm not one for pet names often.

"Oh" he turns back to the cabinet.

Liam hasn't turned up, I'm ecstatic about that. I do not need an awkward reunion with a bloke who thinks we had something.

I just hope he doesn't tell Eden, I keep searching through Pinterest, I miss working really, but I know the new staff have it covered so me and Z are silent.

"Hey, can we do a dinner date with Z and Lou soon or at least go clubbing." I miss them and now me and Harry are stable, we can do it.

"We can go clubbing, I'm not one for dinner parties babe, the one tonight will be enough." Thats a valid point.

"Goodie, when because I seem to spend most of my time with you and not Zayn, I'm starting to feel like a bad friend" the insecurity is deep in my tone.

"You can invite him over, or go to him I'm not gunna be upset if you don't want to spend time with me, I'm a big boy I can handle myself" I stand up and walk in front of him, closing the drawer as I move.

"Oh I know your a big boy" I wrap my arm around his neck pulling down towards me.

I pull him closer and kiss him, kissing him feels the same every time. Fireworks and butterflies.

Our tongues clash together, he wraps his arms around my body and slams our bodies together against the filing cabinet.

I hear a cough sound behind us, I pull my lips from harry and peak over his shoulder, low and behold it's  Liam.

I rest my head against Harry's shoulder, fuck.

"Can you two not find somewhere else to fuck, it's disgusting"  can he be less annoying.

"Get over it Liam, she's my girlfriend and this is also my office, so back down." Oh that assertive tone, I clamp my thighs together.

"Well can both of you fuck off, I've got a girl coming over now, so I need the office not you and newest slut" that enrages Harry.

He strides over and pushes Liam against the door, I do nothing but flinch, I've not seen Harry lose his shit in this way before.

"Say that again Liam, I fucking dare you" He has ahold of Liams collar, pinning him against the door.

"Harry come on, let's just go." I'm not scared In a sense but I'm not a major fan of violence.

"No he needs to fucking apologise, say your sorry" Liam pushes Harry, sending him stumbling back.

"No because I'm not fucking sorry. Now you" he points over to me.

"I thought me and you where on a steady path" how?

"Liam you felt me up, in what world does that say fucking stable, I never liked you. It's always been Harry" he scoffs at me.

"Of fucking course, it's always fucking Harry, you know what both of you fuck off"

"Harry let's just leave, come on" I grab his hand and pull him with me, "Fuck sake Harry let's just go"

"This ain't over Liam, I swear to fucking god" I have to borderline yank Harry out of this office.

I finally got him out and Into his car, I get in the drivers side. I place my hands on the steering wheel, letting out a deep and shaky breath.

He tried to touch my hand but I just flinched away. Not giving him a glance.

"What was that?"  I don't even look over at him.

"What?" He wants to play that game.

"In there Harry, that fucking anger. Where did it come from"

"In me, what do you think. I've told you multiple times, I'm not one of the good guys" yes and I've overlooked every sketchy thing you've said because stupid me has to love you.

"Okay and what does that mean then, you've said it multiple times, so fucking spit it out" he rolls his eyes.

"Nothing Luna, just drive home" he leans against the window. I don't have time to sit and argue, I begin to drive back to his.

Tonight should go great.

*************************************************

We are sat outside his mums house, I'm in a black dress with a long grey coat and Harry has on one of his signature black suits.

Not much was said this afternoon. We had some rough sex but that was more because both of us Where angry, I mean the sex was great.

"You ready for this, we don't have to go in" I grab his hand and stroke his knuckles.

"I think that's meant to be my line" we both chuckle, but still get out of the car.

"We can do this, it's dinner right, nothing can go wrong."  Famous last words baby.

Oh how this is the worst night of my life, okay maybe that's me being dramatic but the twins are nice but his mother hate any guts.

She has barely said two words to me, yet has had heaps to say to the precious son, if I wanted to get ignored I'd have dinner with my own parents.

I excuse myself to go the the bathrooms but bump into the twins on the way.

"Hey, so how did you bag Harry I mean he's not exactly a nice guy" I think zac says that, I can't quite make out.

"He's nice enough to me, what do you know?" I try and quiz these two as Harry speaks to his mum.

"Well nothing but, he was always getting into trouble when he was a teen, getting arrested, I heard mum say he was pretty deep into the drug scene" why does none of this surprise me.

"Well...umm...he's nice now, so surely that counts" what else do I say.

"He's alright, he sends money so I guess he's kinda a cool brother, but you on the other hand, why don't you call me when I'm 18" I stifle back a laugh.

"I'll think about it" I rush off into the bathroom, doing my business, then I walk back into the kitchen and can hear Harry talking.

"Just leave him mum, he's a deadbeat anyway" guessing that's about Dave.

I stand in the hallway, not wanting to interrupt.

"Oh shush, he's here these days, he's also going to be here in a minute so please be nice and get that thing of yours to be nice"

"I swear to god mum, stop being a cunt, her names Luna and she's pretty permanent in my life so just get over it" I hear his mum gasp.

"Hey so the twins are lovely" I step into the kitchen and make my presence known.

"When did you meet them?" He seems shocked.

"I bumped into them on the way to the bathroom, I think it was mainly zac who spoke." I try and laugh but his mum just walks straight past me to set the table.

"She hates me babe, the twins on the other hand did try to hit on me"

"She doesn't hate you cherry, and of course they did" he strokes a hair out of my face, tucking it behind my ear.

I just glare at him, but his mum walks back in before I can say anything.

"Dinners ready" Harry links our hands together, as we walk to the table.

His mum has got a nice house. I wonder if Harry brought it for them, I eat the steak pie she made, I still think it's shop brought but who am I to judge a women who hates my guts.

"So Luna was it?" Dave, the elusive Dave.

"Yes, I didn't quite catch your name" I definitely did.

"It's Dave love, so what do you do apart from badger my son" do these people really think I'm using or harassing Harry.

"Not his dad, but I digress" that earns me a pinch on the thigh and a glare from Harry, but I got the twins to laugh.

"I own a book store. I do very well for myself so Harry doesn't actually fund me" was that a dig? Maybe.

"I see, so a book store, how retro" I can hear the disdain drip from his mouth.

"That was the plan"

He moves on from me and starts making conversation with Maggie, the twins are talking to each other.

Harry shuffles closer to me. "Be nice, please"nice? Coming from the man who hates his step dad.

"I'm trying my hardest, the least you could do is back me"

"I am but I don't need this to blow up" oh poor you.

"Calling your mum a cunt, is hardly backing me that's just saying it how it is" his eyes Widen in shock, not knowing I heard him.

"Oh whatever Luna" he turns back to his food, just fucking peachy.

Dinner is awkward, with the odd conversation about Harry's bar or the twins secondary school experience, I stay quiet like the good little girlfriend I am.

I help Maggie carry the plates out to the kitchen as Harry stay with Dave, they seem to be in a heated discussion.

"So Luna, what's your end goal with my son"'okay, start off with a loaded question.

"What do you mean?" I place some plates into the dishwasher.

"Cut the shit with me, do you expect him to fund your lifestyle like Courtney, if so then you can leave my son alone" what a twist.

"Cut the shit with me Maggie, your son is old enough to make his own choices, I'm nothing like Courtney, I've made my own money so I can survive without him." I'm done being nice.

She stands there arms crossed, glaring at me. I don't have time for mother's. Mines bad enough.

"Maybe I should go" I would argue with her but I don't have the energy or man power to also argue with Harry.

"Maybe you should, but leave Harry here" that's a big no.

"I won't be doing that" I walk off, into the dining room.

"I'll be in the car, don't be long" I walk away and leave Harry to stew in why I want to leave.

I grab my coat and then the keys out of Harry's coat, getting into the car, I get into the drivers side.

I wait about twenty minutes and then I see Harry walk out, no one comes out behind him.

He gets in and slams the door.

"What the fuck was that?" He's pissed.

I'll play his game from earlier.

"What was what Harry" I turn him and bat my lashes, acting as if I don't know what I've done.

"Fucking hell, you couldn't at least fake it for me"

"I don't really feel like being belittled or called a gold digger when it's clear I'm fucking not"'I begin to drive, I don't need to stay outside his parents house.

He doesn't say anything else as we drive towards his house, the silence just enrages me more.

We pull up to Harry's, I get out slamming his door and walking into his house.

Greeting goose, and a blonde-ish looking bloke, who the fuck is he?

"Who the fuck are you?" Maybe I could do less of the snarky tone but I'm not in the mood for this shit.

"Niall, your early" this is Niall.

"Niall, as is your old friend Niall"

"In the flesh baby, she's a lot more mouthy than you described Harry.

"I'm so sorry, I've had a night and wasn't in the mood for anymore of Harry's fucking family." I hear Harry Scoff behind me.

"I'm going to bed, you can sleep in your guest room" I point to Harry and walk away.

"No I'm fucking not, stop being dramatic" I don't bother looking back as he talks to Niall, I slam his bedroom door and take off my dress.

Harry walks into the room, "I said sleep in your guest room" he shrugged of his jacket and takes his shoes off.

"I know what you said, I'm not doing it, it's my house" be like that.

"Fine then, I'll sleep in the guest room"

"Why are you even pissed"'why? Is he fucking joking.

"Because you hate your mother and tonight showed me how that's a fucking lie, why bother lying" he gets undressed as I stand here in my underwear.

"I do hate my mum, but I wanted one night of normalcy, is that too much to ask"

"You are far from normal, just be honest with me. Your families a mess and that's okay." He sits at the edge of his bed.

He looks sad, his sadness
