Harry could sense the panic in Kaylani's eyes as she noticed who walked through the gates of the airport. She was excited to see Alanis after their break apart from each other, but she was not expecting the surprise that came along and neither was he.

Alanis was finally arriving to join the boys on tour, but she didn't come alone like they had planned - Jake was walking right next to her with the largest smile adorned on his face.

"Jake?" Jake could hear the hesitation in Kay's voice. She was making sure that Ryan was not going to be joining them. With a nod of his head Jake noticed a large smile overtake Kaylani's face at his confirmation that it was just them two exiting the plane causing her to sprint into his arms.

"I missed you baby girl." Jake inhaled Kaylani's scent before allowing her to escape his grasp and enter Al's waiting arms. The trio was hardly ever separated for this long and when they were they usually kept in contact at all hours of the day but due to the time difference and wanting to give Kaylani some time to bond with the boys and relax in general, they rarely talked.

"Harry! It's good to see you, dude." Jake and Harry clapped hands before turning their attention to the two girls who were still embracing each other tightly as their bodies swayed side to side.

Alanis had missed Kaylani more than anyone could possibly understand, just as Kaylani had missed Alanis more than anyone could understand. The two of them were practically joined at the hip and anytime one of them was in trouble or in pain, the other would be there within an instant. They were practically sisters and it had always felt like that, even if they weren't related by blood.

Once Kaylani and Alanis finally pulled away from each other they smiled largely at each other and laughed at noticing the tears in each other’s eyes before Al turned her body to face Harry who was smiling warmly at the sight. She returned his smile as Kaylani tucked her body into the side of his, their bodies molding together perfectly as if they were made for each other.

"Thank you for taking care of her. It's really good to see you Harry." Harry couldn't help but let Alanis' words sink in. He knew that behind her seemingly harmless sentence was a much deeper meaning.

Alanis was thanking him for so much more.She was thanking him for not letting Kay sink into a depression. She was thanking him for making her happy. She was thanking him for keeping her alive. Alanis may have thought that's what he was doing but in reality he didn't do any of that. Kaylani had kept him happy and by doing that she kept him alive. She had given him something to genuinely smile about - not just plaster on a fake smile. She had given him something to want look forward to seeing. She had given him someone to love. She had given him the one thing no one else had – no judgments.

"It's really good to see you too Alanis. We’ve missed your loud mouth around here." Harry winked at Alanis just as her hand came in contact with his bicep. After releasing a chuckle and rubbing his bicep in amusement at her feeble attempt to hurt him he tilted his head back towards the entrance of the airport where he knew a car was waiting for them. "We should probably get out of here and meet up with the rest of the lads at the arena. I know they miss your crazy arses too."

-------------------------------------------

"Alanis!" Once Alanis stepped into the lounge room at the arena that the boys would be playing at that night she was immediately crushed into a group hug by four boys. They had all missed her like crazy and they were glad she was finally back.

"Hey get off my girlfriend!" Liam shooed the rest of the boys off of her before pulling her into his arms for a long hug as he simply breathed in her scent. As much as he wanted to kiss her, he wanted to savor the moment and just enjoy that she was actually here and in his arms. He had missed being able to simply hold her and talk to her in person. It was simple things like this that most people took for granted that he learned to treasure. The moment was soon broken, however, when he couldn't take it any longer and finally pressed his lips to hers in a firm but gentle kiss that displayed exactly how much he missed her.

"Did you not miss me?" At the sound of his voice all four heads immediately shot to the doorway where none other than Jake was standing with a large smirk plastered on his face and his arms crossed across his chest. He had been standing in the hallway waiting for the perfect moment to creep in and surprise everyone that he was actually there and not back in California like he said he would be.

"Jake? What the hell are you doing here?" Niall had a confused look on his face as he took in the sight of his mate standing in the doorway. He was glad he was there, but he wasn't sure exactly what was going on. Last he heard he was spending time with his brother - the one who destroyed Kay's life.

"I'm hurt Nialler." Jake pretended to cry before standing up straight and striding into the room before plopping down on a chair across from the couch that the boys were currently occupying. "I had a chat with my entire family and we decided it wouldn't hurt if I spent a week or two out here with you since you went through all that trouble to plan it in the first place."

Zayn looked to each of the boys before noticing Harry and Kaylani had joined everyone in the room with Sam trailing in behind them as well. Everyone was now in the room and he wasn't sure if they knew what was going on, but he was sure to find out. "So what exactly does that mean?"

"That means that Jake is here for two weeks, Alanis is here for a month, Samantha is here for however long she wants, and I'm here for another month." Kaylani's eyes flickered to each of the boys as she spoke. She could see different emotions lingering within each of their eyes but she didn't want to try and decipher them because she knew it would only cause her to become paranoid. She would much rather just enjoy the time she has with her best friends before going home to face whatever drama she has to deal with there. "How about we just enjoy the time we have with each other and make the most of it before we all have to leave? I'd much rather have memories of how many times Alanis, Sam, Jake, and I prank the five of you rather than how many times we've wondered how many days we have left with each other."

"Woah, hold on just a minute little lady. What makes you think you'll be pranking us?" Louis looked at Kay with narrowed eyes before standing up as if he was challenging her.

Kaylani stepped out of Harry's arms as she crossed her arms across her chest while walking up to Lou with a smirk on her face. "Well for starters you might want to go look in a mirror."

Knowing that Kaylani was practically fearless when it came to pranks, Lou immediately ran into the bathroom across the hall to check what she could be talking about only to find a surprise waiting for him. The minute he opened the door a bucket of foam fell on top of his head and drenched him from head to toe. Just as realization of what happened dawned on him when he took in his reflection in the mirror, Samantha entered with another bucket in her hands before throwing the contents on his back. Lou’s mouth was agape as he stared at himself in the mirror in complete shock of the entire situation. They had just pranked him within the first hour of being in the country. Oh they were good.

The group had followed Lou out of the room to see what Kaylani was talking about when she told Lou to look in a mirror because the minute he stood up they each noticed he had nothing wrong with him which only meant one thing - something was going to happen. As they all stood up it gave Samantha the perfect opportunity to run and get the other bucket of foam for her to dump on Louis. Meanwhile, Jake had filmed the entire thing on his camera and was already planning on editing it and uploading it to YouTube later that night to add on to their One Direction Prank Wars from when they first became friends.

"You've got to be bloody kidding me! It's your first day back and you're already plotting against us!" Liam shook his head in mock disapproval at Alanis before falling for her puppy dog eyes and wrapping his arms around her slim waist once more. He would never be able to resist her puppy dog eyes.

"Well at least we know this next month will definitely not be boring." Harry looked at Kaylani with mischief, love, and admiration in his eyes. He would willingly let her prank him as many times as she wanted if it meant that she was happy. He would try to prank her back of course, but he knew deep down that it probably wouldn't work out in the end.

Jake took in his surroundings and noticed the large smiles that were practically super glued to everyone’s faces as they laughed and made plans for the next month of their time together, "it’s good to be back.”

Notes

I CAN FINALLY TELL YOU MY EXCITING NEWS FROM LIKE TWO MONTHS AGO INVOLVING THE BOYS!

On June 15, 2013 I watched This Is Us! :D My mom works for Sony so me along with 50ish other people were able to be the first people to ever watch the movie! :) The movie wasn't even 100% completed so like at the end of the movie it was a black screen that said "CREDITS" and some of the special effects weren't added in LOL. And the executive producers were sitting behind me and one of them was talking about going to Simon's house afterwards to show him and then after we watched it they had like a focus group type thing where they asked 20 of us our opinions, so they might have added/changed things since I watched it two months ago. Literally when I got home a few hours later the boys tweeted that they were watching a cut of the movie. I WATCHED IT BEFORE THE BOYS DID... WHAT. BUT IT WAS AMAZING AND IT MADE ME LIKE THE BOYS SO MUCH MORE.

but yeah, that was my news. I just couldn't tell anyone because everyone that went signed a legal contract stating that we weren't allowed to talk about the movie or even state that we watched it but since the London premiere already took place our contracts are void! I really wanted to tell someone but I knew only two of my friends would care and they already know, plus I knew only Directioners could truly appreciate this news. ;)

ANNNNYWAYYY; I hope you liked this chapter and I hope I can update again soon since I start school in a week! YAY! (note my sarcasm.)

I NOTICED THIS IS UNDER POPULAR STORIES AND I CANNOT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH FOR THAT! THANK YOU FOR MY 9.9 RATING WITH 60 VOTES, 73 SUBSCRIBERS, AND 32K+ READS. YOU ARE ALL AMAZING AND I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH. I WOULDN'T WRITE IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOU ALL. I LOVE YOU! xxx kim
