A/N: Choose another name for the story! (just for fun LMFAO)

“Mummahhh you look so princess todayyyyy.” Fiona tells shoving the big bear shaped candy floss inside her mouth, causing her cheeks to have an odd shape because of the ears of the bear.

Fixing the bun over my head, I look at her and kiss both of her cheeks. She kisses me back before fixing her bubbah in her hands again. I look at her for a moment and a satisfactory smile creeps on my lips. She looks at me with popped up eyes and tilts her head up, stretching her hands towards me.

“Mummmahh?” She pouts when I take her in my arms, making her small legs wrap around my lap. “When prince will come? We both have long long hair. See?” She shakes her head, letting her long hair brush her small back.

“Hmmmmm…………” I act to be drowned in deep thought. “Because we don’t need any prince, we’re Queens and Queens don’t need prince.”

“Oh?” She widens her eyes. “I see.”

“So be a good girl and don’t wait for dinner if mummah is late okey?” I peck her nose and she nods her head twice.

I make her stand on the floor as she runs away hearing the sound of a kitten. Most probably our new neighbor has come to meet mum who has started living here with her eighteen cats since a week. I’d love to imagine the last phase of my life like this if I finally don’t have someone to get old with. But the difference will be, my house would be full of puppies, not kittens.

I take a last look of myself after I discover the time says it’s already five and I have to leave early as Artista, the company I work for, is throwing the party. Shawn and I have to receive everyone with the widest smile on face. I brush my hands against the black sleeveless long gown I’m wearing. My makeup is minimal but goes well with the glamorous night look. I frown to my subconscious when it reminds me about the dinner night party with Louis in New York.

Don’t wear little black dresses in front of me again. It may be hazardous for both of us.

“Hey Reen! How do I look?”
I turn around and my lips apart watching Oren in front of me. Her prefect straight hair is shining all the way long down her shoulders. The dark navy blue backless gown ends at the end of her knees and the full sleeve is laced. I fan my face dramatically and she giggles.

“Louis won’t be the only one to faint today sister!” I chuckles and she blushes hearing about the man she has been dating since a few days.

“I hope he does like it, I really do.” She squeals hugging me.

“Don’t hope what should be expected.” I smirk and she rolls her eyes and giggles at the same time.

I have tried to keep myself away from getting so close to Louis since the day she went to their first date. Maybe Oren wouldn’t tell me that she felt bad that night when she saw me and Louis covered in pizza toppings but I realize how suspiciousness can turn into bad blood. So never in a million years I’d want that between me and my sister.

“Reen, sometimes……………………….”

“Sometimes what?” I widen my eyes cupping her shoulders when she stops biting her bottom lip.

“Sometimes I feel like…………………I know it’s so odd…………………but sometimes I just feel like Louis……………………..Louis likes…………he likes you, not m…………….”

“Cmon you stupid girl!” I laugh loudly throwing my head back. “I’m just a friend of him who’s ending his arrogant side and teaching him how to be alive. You know why I’m doing this? So that you don’t get bored when you guys move on together for a bigger future.” I wink looking at her and she nods, smiling.

“I don’t know how my life would be without you. You're always so........patient and inspiring.” She nearly whispers and blinks looking at me.

“Oh sorry Oren I can’t join this daily soap now, I’ve to be early for the party.” I smile sarcastically and she pinches my cheeks softly.

Sharing goodbyes with everyone at home, I walk towards my car. Putting on some songs, I start to make my way to the party hall. I know I’ve done something ridiculous and the outcome would be a dangerous one.

I’ve invited Harry in the party as Zayn craved for. But none knows about it, not even Louis.

I yawn looking at Shawn and he makes a bigger one looking at me. We’ve been standing here on the gate since forty five minutes and greeting all the people, handing a golden mask to all the gentlemen and blue lacy masks to the ladies.

“Don’t you think it’s really a bad expression to present yourself with in this worthy evening when Waliyah is walking towards you?”

Shawn immediately stops making faces at me and turns around at the wrong time, only to bump with his crush. I caress my index finger down my nose looking at a blushing Shawn when Waliyah walks away smirking at him after taking a mask from me.

“Oh God! I’ve never seen a boy blushing like this!” I giggle nudging Shawn’s shoulder, making his cheeks to look like two farm fresh tomatoes.

A female clearing her throat snaps me to look at the direction and all the masks fall down from my hands watching the person in front of me beside Oren.

Black, this color has always been my most favorite but I never knew a person in this color would be able to turn me on. His hair is not perfectly combed but it’s looking more perfect in its messy self. My breathe hitches finding his piercing blue eyes widen on me. My lips slightly apart when I discover that the full sleeves of his button down t-shirt is rolled up at the end of his elbows, revealing all the meaningful art coating his skin.

“I’m sorry guys.” I bend down and collect the masks from the ground.

“You look beautiful Reen.” Louis smirks snaking his tattooed forearm around Oren’s waist as she chuckles looking at me.

“T-thanks Louis” I take my lips between my teeth before releasing them again. “You two look like freshly baked pepperoni pizza! I mean you two look so gorgeous!”

“Is it? Thanks. Do you know a freshly baked pizza tastes better than the looks it hold?” Louis wiggles his eyebrows eyeing me darkly as he jerks Oren closer to him. “You don’t look bad as well, just a lack of………….something.”

“Or maybe someone she is expecting?”

The heavy accent turns all of us at the direction and an excited comfortable smile takes place on my lips. But it immediately fades away when I see Louis’ fingers are not facing straight down by his side anymore, they’re crooked in strong fists. I swallow the lump watching the vein moving on his middle finger and take the courage to step forward towards Harry.

“Why they needs so many chandeliers when they have you, my British beauty?” Harry grins placing a gentle kiss on the back of both of my palms, keeping an eye contact as he does so. “I’ve missed you so much.”

I feel myself wrapped in Harry’s arms which can be compared to a formal hug but Louis is definitely not happy with it. I look at him over Harry’s shoulder when he walks away fast from us. I push myself away gently from Harry and smile looking at the charming guy.

His dark sapphire suit can be considered as a black one so I decided not to ask him why he broke the rules of the color code. His hair is swept away from his forehead, flashing a better view of his perfect pair of emerald eyes.

“I’ve missed you too, I’m glad you came. Thanks Harry.” I smile and nod at the same time. “How did you understand that I’m your British beauty so easily? Because Oren was just beside me.”

I don’t hesitate to ask as he knows all about the game I played in NYC. I don’t even have any idea why these two guys took this huge gaming part so lightly and forgave me so easily.

“Because you’re the only British beauty here.” He smiles, causing me to roll my eyes at him and smiling.

I walk towards the open place when harry walks towards Zayn, surprising him by a hug. I shrug my shoulders looking at them and raise my thumb looking at Zayn whose grateful eyes are sparkling on me now. If I'm not mistaken, happy tears are begging to come down both of their eyes.

“Why? Why didn’t you tell me he’s going to be here? What’s going on between you two Reen? How you two have become so close?”

I turn around widening my eyes when I hear Louis almost yelling behind me. I look around and thankfully find everyone far away from us. I walk towards him and put my hand on his shoulder. Surprising me, he jerks my hand away and flares his nostrils. I knew it was coming that’s why I’m not afraid.

“Louis maybe you’ve something against Harry but he means as much as you do to Zayn, he’s an important……………”

“Oh yeah!” He throws his hands in the air before resting them on his sides. “You work for Zayn and obviously Harry means more than me to you, I'm nothing and……………….”

“Louis!” I cut him off before he could finish. “I don’t know what happened between you two because I know you’d not tell me! But you can’t say that you mean nothing to me. Don't talk nonsense about my feelings for you about what you've no idea!”

I walk away passing him before the corner of my eyes get heavy. I put the mask on my face before walking towards the crowd.

I walk out on the road texting Zayn an apology message for leaving the party early for physically not feeling well and he said it's fine. That gentleman also didn't bother to ask me if he should send Shawn to drive me home. I look up at the dark night sky which is staring back at me with all the stars ornamented on it.

First of all when I couldn’t take it is when Louis almost shouted over me when he got to know that I’m the one who invited Harry in the party. Shouting isn’t the part which has hurt me, his incomplete sentence is. I throw the mask away in the trash but sigh when it falls down beside the trash instead.

But the scene which led me outside those four walls is, Oren and Louis’ lips on each other. I know it was meant to be but my mean heart couldn’t take it. Yes, I admit I like him and it hurts to see him with someone else. I’ve to create more distance with him before I create a distance with myself and my sister, I’ve to avoid him.

I receive a text from Harry which asks where I am. I reply back that I had to leave the party because I’ve remembered something important and I’d meet him tomorrow after office. Harry has a pure heart so I don’t want to get too close to him and pollute it before I’m fully over Louis. I know I’d get over him because my sister loves him. I have to get over him. I know Harry can help me to move on but I don't want him to feel like I’m using him to get over Louis.

I take a long breathe closing my eyes and walk towards my car. A call over my phone stops me from putting the key into the ignition.

“Mum?” I whisper to myself surprisingly watching the name flashing on my phone’s screen. Because she barely calls me over phone unless she needs medicine for dad or something really emergency.

“Hello mum?” I pick it up.

“Reen? Reen…………..Fiona…………”

“Fiona what? What happened to Fiona mum?” My whole body goes numb hearing her anxious tone.

“Reen she was playing in the garden and I came inside to check your father for a while but……………when I came back she wasn’t there.”
