Chapter 2
I scanned the crowd of London airport trying to find my aunt. I didn't even know who to look for because I've never seen a picture of her so i have absolutely no idea who to be looking for. I kept walking and walking and I felt like I'd been set up, and no one was here to pick me up. I got right to the end of the line of people and still couldn't find her. What if this was all fake and they got me to London as a trick? I started getting tears in my eyes when in the corner of my eye i could see a bright orange sign saying CAITLIN in big, bold letters. I walked over to the lady and gently tapped her on the shoulder. "Excuse me? Are you Anne?" I ask her. "Yes dear, you must be Caitlin! It's so great to finally meet you!" She said with her British accent then pulled me into a big warm hug. For the first time in my life I felt loved by someone. "C'mon! Let's get you home!" She said to me. We started walking out of the airport and to her car. "Wow London is freezing! "It's so different from New Zealand." I said. "Oh you'll get used to this weather! It's not as bad as you think!" She said to me. As soon as we got in the car she turned on the heater. Suddenly I heard a familiar tune play. "Written in these words are the stories that I can't explain, leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days." OMG MY AUNT IS A DIRECTIONER! "My face lit up and I started singing a-long. "Hahaha, oh he's very good isn't he? My sweet boy." I couldn't really hear what she was saying but I could see this song made her very emotional. "This is probably my favourite song in Midnight Memories!" I said to her. She laughs and smiles away, but seems a bit sad. But I thought maybe I wouldn't ask her and kept singing along. "The story of my life I take her home, I drive all night! To keep her warm and time. Is froooozen." I sang. "Wow Caitlin you have an amazing voice! You and Harry would do a great duet!" She said. Oh if only that would be real. This new life is going to be so much fun, I think to myself. I'm so glad my parents made me come here.

ANNE'S POV
Listening to Story of my Life brang back so many good memories. But after a few repeats of that song I knew I had to turn it off because Caitlin could barely keep her eyes open, and it's about half an hour until we get home. I can't wait til tomorrow before I get to see my boy home, it will be the first time in 4 years that he will be home for longer than a few days. The last time I saw him was 4 months ago before they started the new tour. I'm sure he misses me just as much as I miss him. We finally got home and I woke Caitlin up so she could see the house. "Wow! This is amazing!" She said to me, taking her jacket off and putting it on the coat hanger. I couldn't help but to notice some bruises she had on her arms. "I hope you don't mind me asking, but what are those?" I asked, pointing to the numerous bruises and scratches on her. "Oh, um, they are just nothing. I uhh, fell off my bike the day before I came but uh, no big deal." She said. I know she's trying to cover something up but I let her be and show her around the house.

CAITLIN'S POV
I hope she bought my falling off the bike story, but somehow I'm not so sure. She takes me around the massive house, showing me around. Then at the end of the long hallway, she opens the door and welcomes me in. "This is your room, I hope we've set it up just the way you like it!" She said. The room was amazing! It was big and had a double bed right in the middle. It had a big dresser and a desk for me to do my homework on. It had a lot of One Direction posters as well which I absolutely loved! "It's wonderful! Thank you so much!" I smiled at her and gave her a hug. "Your welcome dear. Now I will let you get ready and unpack your things. Call me if you need anything." And she exited out of the room. I began unpacking and then I became so exhausted I went straight to bed and fell into a deep sleep.

I woke up the next morning, to Aunt Anne talking to someone. I think it was a young male. It was 11 o'clock, I had slept in from having jet lag. I got up and put on my dressing gown to see who was at the door. I stood still. I could not believe who was standing right there. I was in shock. The one and only, Harry Styles, was stairing right at me and smiling.
