I'm quite proud of myself for two things.

Number one: I finished studying quickly and I know everything for my Biology test tomorrow (Yay, last test)

Number two: I reached up to Chapter 26. In my other fanfics I only got to the third chapter. I guess the little curly guy gives me inspiration, and all of your reviews, likes and the emails letting me know some of you put this on Alert Story, Favorite Story and me in Favorite Author has quite given me a boost to keep writing.

I believe I told you I wouldn't be writing for this week, but he he, guess I'm not much of a "Kill yourself and make your eyes square for the hours you're going to spend studying" sorry about that.

"Emma!" I heard someone say behind me as I walked trough the salad bar. Turning around I noticed the cute brunette who had stood behind the cashier table in Zara.

"Riley" I exclaimed "What are you doing here?"

"Lunch break" he shrugged

"Cool" I mumbled as I served some lettuce and carrots into the plastic bowl.

I walked over to the cashier and paid for the salad, and a water bottle which she grabbed from the fridge behind her next to the soda fountain.

"Do you mind if I join you?" Riley asked smiling, with a chicken wrap in his hands.

"Sure" I said as I sat down in a table. He scooted in and sat in front of me, checked his cell phone and started eating.

"So, how long have you been in UL?"

"First semester" I grinned and started munching on my salad. "You?"
"Two years" He stated "Know anybody yet?"

"Of course" I nodded as I swallowed "Some guys from writing, two girls in Calculus and a group of people who went to my school back at Holmes Chapel"

"Hmm, that's awesome" He cleared his throat "I could introduce you to some of my friends, we're having a party the 25th, you know, for Christmas, and it would be nice if you'd come"

"Oh…I don't know" I played with a loose strand of my hair.

"I realize what you're thinking, you don't know me, I don't know you, but I just thought it would be nice for you to know other students, they're from my year and it's going to be fun" He scoffed "And well, I wanted to get to know you"

"Humm Riley…"

"You don't have a boyfriend, do you?"

"I…" I considered my answer deeply. No, I didn't have a boyfriend, but I wasn't Harry's friend particularly. What were we? "Not really" I looked around uncomfortably.

"Then perfect" He smiled "Please come" He grabbed my hands and I let go quickly "Sorry" he lowered his head "Too soon…But seriously, here's the address" he scribbled in a piece of napkin some directions and put it in front of me "Think about it" He checked his watch and got up "I think I have to leave, but please, please, please give me a call, send me a text or something, I'll be waiting" he faked a smile, turned on his heels and walked away.

I put the rest of my salad in the trash, I guess I poured more than I would be able to eat, and flaunted down the wide hall. I still had to get a present for Harry, and it was already two o'clock. Time had gone by too quickly, weird.

I figured I would get him a sweater, maybe cologne, but ugh, nothing seemed to fit Harry. Well, it all fitted him perfectly, it just wasn't enough. Think Emma, think.

Then I had a huge flashback. The day he kissed me and blurted everything out and we started talking and we spent the whole night together? Remember that? At one point we were talking about our family, and he mentioned his grandma, that he hadn't been able to visit her because she's living in Australia, and apart from the fact that it's really expensive, he didn't have much time. But now he had, it was December. I clapped, went outside to get a cab and went home. As soon as I arrived I dialed the number that I previously searched in my phone and called Qantas Airways.

"Hello, this is Qantas Airways, Hugo speaking"

"Hi, I was wondering which flights you have for Sidney" I said calmly and tapped my pen on the notepad.

"Well, how long would you be staying?"

"Five days perhaps"

"For this month? I'm sorry ma'am, everything's booked."

"Well, isn't there another date?"

"We have one in January, five days, leaving the 3rd returning the 8th via Bangkok for 681.90 pounds."

"Shit" I whispered

"Would that be ok for you?" The man on the other side of the line asked

"Yeah, could you book it for me?"

He gave me the instructions and I went to their website, put all the details and printed the tickets of departure and return, checking that everything was right. He should put me on a pedestal and give me a heck of a present after this. Actually, he should marry me after this.

I went into my closet, pulled the wrapping paper and started wrapping all the presents. For a joke, I thought I should put the tickets inside an envelope, that's inside of a box, that's inside of a bigger box, inside of an even bigger box.

I wrapped it all, put the bows on top and scribbled on top of a card Harry's, James' and Anne's name, before placing everything under my bed. I collapsed on top of it and shook my boots off, my feet hanging from the end of the bed, my arms spread wide and my hair covering my whole face. I let out a small sigh and fell closed my eyes, falling rapidly asleep.

Buzz, buzz

I shook my head and opened my eyes, yawning. It was already dark.

Buzz, buzz

I grabbed my cell phone and saw two texts. One from Harry and one from Zayn.

Styles: Hello love, how was shopping? Got you the best present ever

Zayn: Hi Emma, want to get dinner?

I quickly typed and answered both

Reply to Styles: Better than expected, I'm sure I'll beat your present

Reply to Zayn: Sure, where?

They both texted me back instantly

Styles: Ha Ha, so funny. We'll have to wait and see xx

Zayn: I was thinking Nando's

I replied to Zayn and got up, brushed my hair and headed downstairs.
