Ring… Ring… Ally waited as the phone continued to undergo connection. Ring… Click.

"Hello?" Katie's tired voice rang through the speaker as shuffles of papers could be heard on her side.

"Katie! It's me! Ally!" Ally said and frowned at the sound of the papers. "Are you busy? You sounded tired."

"I'm just packing the stuffs for the lesson tomorrow. Anyways, anything you need for calling me?" Katie asked and added, "Hold on a minute." As the thumping of piles of paper on the desktop could be heard. Ally sniggered and shook her head; she'll never give up, that woman. It'll kill her.

"Right, soooo, whatcha calling for?" Katie was now back on the phone and sounded cheerier than she had been just now.

"Me and Rachy were wondering if you would like to come over for dinner. We're pretty bored and decided to call you over. So? You wanna come?" Ally asked expectedly hoping she would be able to come, since the dinner was made for her and Harry. She and Rachel had discussed their plans with Dougie and Danny and they were more than happy to help out with it, since Harry was getting a tad grumpy that all his bandmates were going out with someone, all except him. So, when the girls told them about the plan, they were met with an enthusiastic response and a straight agreement.

"Hmm, okay, I don't see why not." Katie said as Ally grinned broadly at the success of the plan. "Do I have to bring anything?"

"Oh, no, no, no need for that. Just bring yourself, and mind you, not in those ties and jackets, wear the clothes we bought the other day, oh! And your contact lenses, wear them." Ally added, reminding Katie not to turn up with her usual set of court shoes and jackets.

"Oh, err, okay. I'll see you at your place then. Bye." Katie hanged up as Ally smiled at Rachel who was standing in the kitchen's doorway all the while.

"She's coming." Ally stood up from the sofa and joined Rachel in the kitchen where she was already starting on the preparation of the dinner. Ally took an apron off the rack and moved over to where Rachel was halfway through chopping the mushrooms for the spaghetti they were having tonight.

"What 'bout the boys' side? Doug and Dan's gonna persuade Harry then?" Rachel asked and took out some parsley from the glass jars on the shelf and began chopping them into smaller pieces. The girls were pretty good at cooking due to their dislike of having eating out. Eating out was a waste of money to them and felt that when they cook their own food, they would be able to make their own 'custom' dishes according to each other's likes and dislikes. Although they would still go for a nice meal at a restaurant once in a while, they preferred to make their own food most of the time.

"Yeap, I asked Giovanna along too." Ally looked up from her chopping board and turned to Rachel. "Hope it's a success, Rach." As Rachel nodded her heat and turned back to her parsley.

McFLY's House

"Hey Doug, where's Harry?" Danny asked and flumped down onto the sofa beside Dougie whose attention was on the cartoon, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Danny rolled his eyes at him when he got no response and grabbed his bowl of popcorn. Just then, the show ended as Dougie turned to Danny ever so slowly.

"What's that?" he asked, a blank look on his face while Danny grunted and threw a piece of popcorn in his face.

"I… asked… you… where… Harry… was…" Danny repeated, in a slower, louder and clearer mode which caused Dougie to roll his eyes at him.

"You… have… no… need… to… speak… that… slowly…" Dougie replied, challenging Danny in the same way he spoke to him just now.

"You… didn't… reply… me… the… first… time… I… asked… you. So… it'll… be… better… to… speak… more… slowly… for… you… to… catch… what… I'm… talking… about."

"You guys are so childish." Harry appeared at the bottom of the stairs and stalked towards them, grabbing the bowl of popcorn from Danny who grabbed it from Dougie.

"Whatev, Haz." Dougie shot Danny as a look that reminded him about the plan Ally and Rachel had been working on, "anyways, Ally and Rachel invited us to their place for dinner, and they asked you, Tom and Gio along too. Coming?"

"And watch you, Tom and Doug snog your girls? No thanks dude, I'd rather stay home with my TV." Harry replied and continued munching on the popcorns.

"C'mon Haz, just go with us. Ally said she's invited her friend too. Katie's her name I think." Dougie said and brought up Katie's name on purpose, knowing full well that Harry seemed to have been a little interested in her ever since the day Ally and Rachel introduced Katie to them. This method proved to be working because Harry's head shot up from the bowl and looked at Dougie in surprise.

"She's going?" Harry asked as a smile hung on his face.

"Well yea, but since you weren't going, I guess Katie will just have to be left along because Tom, me and Dan have our own girls to accompany." Dougie continued in the same drawl, "I'll just give al a call then. Gimme a mo'" Dougie whipped out his phone and began to fake punch numbers as Danny smirked at Harry.

"Alright, alright, I'm going." Dougie and Danny burst out laughing at the same time as realization dawned on Harry's confused face.

"Hey, you said that on purpose!"

"Did not, it is a fact she's going."

"Did too, you said that to make me go because you knew I fanc-" Harry stopped halfway through his sentence while Danny and Dougie leaned forward and wriggled their brows.

"You were saying?" Danny pushed and watched a faint blush spread across Harry's pale cheeks.

"Fine, whatever." Harry got up from his seat and walked up the stairs but stopped before he disappeared out of side and turned back to Dougie and Danny, "What time did you say it was?"

"Seven, dude. Enough time for you to dress up?" Dougie shouted as he and Danny broke out in howls of laughed at Harry's grumblings. "He so likes her."

"Yeah, I know."
