*Sawyer's POV*

We were almost to Orange County. Kinsley kept talking about how excited she was to see her grandmother and aunt which made me smile because she finally got to have a little bit of fun for a weekend.

I parked my car into the driveway that I have grew so familiar with. It was the place that I went to so I could get away for a few hours. Harry was the last to get out and he slowly walked behind me with Kinsley's overnight bag. I just walked in and yelled out Heather's name. She appeared with a smile on her face and Kinsley jumped out of my arms and ran to her grandmother. She hugged her tightly and Heather brought me in for a hug.

"Hey, Heather." I hugged her tightly and stepped aside so I could introduce Harry. "This is Harry."

She knew about Harry. She knew about our whole situation. I mean, I had to confide in someone and it just so happens that it was my mother-in-law. We became close and I trusted her with the information.

Heather extended her hand out with a smile.

"Hi, Harry. I've heard so much about you." She smiled at him as they shook hands.

"I wish that I could say the same." Harry said sweetly. "You have a lovely home."

"That means a lot. Thank you, darling." Heather smiled.

Kinsley clung onto her grandmother with a smile on her face. I then stooped down to her level and held my arms out.

"Are you going to give Mommy a hug?" I asked her with a smile.

Kinsley shook her hand with her bottom lip in her mouth.

"No? What about Harry? Are you going to give Harry a hug?" I asked my daughter.

Kinsley smiled widely and nodded her head. She ran to Harry and collapsed into his arms that were opening as she ran to her. Harry whispered something into Kinsley's ear and she nodded her head and ran out of his arms and into mine.

"I love you, Mommy." She whispered in my ear.

I smiled into my daughter's hair. I kissed the top of her head and wrapped my arms tightly around her.

"I love you, too, beautiful." I said as I pulled away. "Mommy will be back tomorrow evening, okay?"

Kinsley nodded her head and then ran back to Heather. I got up to my normal height and hugged Heather one more time and Harry said goodbye to Heather and then the two of us left. Harry draped his arm loosely around my neck as we walked to the car.

"What did you say about me to your mother-in-law?" Harry asked with a smile.

I shrugged as I unwrapped his arm from around my neck and got into the car. Harry started the car as I slipped in.

"Nothing important." I shrugged.

"Tell me, baby." Harry said grabbing my hand.

He was about to reverse out of the driveway, but then he put the car into park again.

"That you were the love of my life and how much you mean to me. She is the only one besides Louis that I talked to about it." I explained.

Harry stared at me until he turned his attention back to driving. He reversed out of the parking lot and began to drive down the street. It hadn't said a word after my confession. I knew I didn't say the wrong thing. He knew that I loved him and that he loved me. It wasn't a surprise.

"Do you really me that? That I'm the love of your life?" Harry asked me.

I nodded but then I realized he wasn't looking at me.
