*Harry's POV*

THE NEXT DAY...

"Please tell me you're almost here. I'm actually dying to meet your 'Prince Charming'," said Gemma on the phone after she called me. I was just getting ready that afternoon before heading off to have dinner with my family and Liam.

"Liam will be here soon, then we're gonna head over there as soon as possible," I said to her, trying to pull my skinny jeans up with one hand, but failing miserably. Skinny jeans were not meant to be pulled on with only one hand. "Hold on, Gems. Lemme pull my pants on. Can't do it with one hand."

"Oh good mercy, Harry. Please tell me you're not purposely putting on your tightest skinny jeans just to get Liam to stare at your bum the whole dinner," she said with a groan.

I rolled my eyes and pressed the speakerphone button as I set my phone down on my bed. "Relax, would you? That's not the reason why I'm wearing them."

"Mhm," she said doubtfully.

"Okay, fine. Maybe just a little. But, whatever!" I said in annoyance. "Liam can stare at me all he wants. Doesn't bother me."

"Of course it doesn't. You'd happily jump him in front of us, your own family, if Mum would let you," she retorted drily. "Now hurry up and get here! I really wanna meet Liam already!"

"You'll meet him when we get there," I said as I successfully pulled my skinny jeans on.

I picked my phone up and put it back to my ear and taking it off the speakerphone mode. I walked out of my room and closed the door behind me. Then I walked in the living room to wait for Liam, with the other guys also there playing FIFA.

"You're finally ready, huh? Took you long enough," Louis said to me.

"I was gonna be ready soon enough," I returned.

"What would you have done if Liam was already here? Make him wait just so you could paint those things on?" he asked, gesturing at my pants. "Geez, Haz. Could you get anything tighter?"

"That would have to be illegal then," added Niall, looking up at me.

I glared at them and sat down on my chair. "Shut up."

"Hello? Yeah, hey bro. You completely forgot about me here," said Gemma from my phone.

"Right. Sorry, Gems. What were you saying?" I asked.

"Oh, nothing. Just talking about how unexpected it is that YOU found your Prince Charming before me. I mean, I'm pretty sure I'm the princess in this family. How in the world did our roles change?" she said.

"Hey! I'm no princess!" I protested.

The other boys laughed and I shook my head at them. Gemma giggled and added, "Well, you've got a freaking Prince as your boyfriend now. You sure he wasn't meant for another Styles? Preferably a female one?"

"Gemma, you are not stealing my boyfriend from me. No matter how sexy he is," I said sternly.

"Yeah, yeah. But I can touch him, right? Just to make sure he's real?" she joked.

"Of course he's real! How could he not be?" I said in disbelief.

Just then, the doorbell rang and I hopped up from my chair. As I made my way to the door, I told Gemma we'd be there soon and hung up. I opened the door and saw my boyfriend standing there with a nervous smile.

"Hey, Li!" I said happily and kissed his lips. "You nervous?"

"Kinda," he admitted, but took my hand in his and led me to his car.
