Chapter 21:

Thursday morning had arrived. I took one last look around the room, remembering the memories from my childhood in this exact room. The happiness, the sadness, the songwriting - I remembered everything, occasionally smiling at my thoughts. I slowly turned to pick up my bag, leaving my room and heading straight towards my mum who welcomed me with open arms.

"I'm gonna miss you so much. Take care. Drive safe. I love you!" she muttered into my neck as I leaned my head against hers. I giggled at how concerned she was.

"I will mum don't worry. I'll love you too, always!" She squeezed me one last time before letting me walk out of the house.

"Take care of Harry!" she shouted at me before closing the door, I playfully rolled my eyes and smirked at her. Throwing my bag in the passenger seat, I walked around the car getting in the other side to start my 4 and a half hour journey back home...

~~

After the agonisingly long and tiring drive, I arrived back home. Automatically I see an unfamiliar black car parked outside my house; I park in my driveway, grab my bag and get out the car, warily heading towards my house.

I open the door quietly and hear several mumbling voices coming from the living room, I place my bag silently on the floor and grab the first thing I can find to use as a weapon. Making my way in to the room I slowly start to look around the corner but before I can a hand taps on my shoulder, I scream and turn to see a scared looking Liam and a thoroughly amused Louis as I held my weapon of choice in their faces; realising that I was in fact holding up a coat hanger...

With a sigh of relief, I hit their arms and scolded them "You guys scared me to death! What are you doing here?" I asked, trying to calm myself gradually.

"Welcome home!!" they cheered. The confused expression on my face then changed to a grateful one, knowing they had come here to welcome me home. I smiled at them and gave then a hug each, whispering thank you's in their ears.

"You looked like a right ninja when you pointed that coat hanger in our face! Liam was terrified!" Louis mocked as I giggled slightly.

"Well, what do you expect? I thought you were murderers that were trying to kill me!" I said, they chuckled and all three of us walked into the living room smiling. I turned my head to see Zayn, Niall and Hayley all sat talking on the couches, they turned their attention to me and smiled, immediately coming over and giving me hugs.

"Wheres Harry?" Zayn asked curiously, noticing the curly haired boys absence.

"He's still in Holmes Chapel. We agreed to leave at separate times to avoid suspicion." I smiled at him as he nodded in understanding. We all sat down on the couch and the boys started to decide how they were going to welcome Harry home.

"Maybe we can go to a club?" Hayley asked as she sat extremely closely to Niall, I wouldn't be surprised if something is going on there. I was a tad bit hesitant about going to a club; after all, the reason I left was because Harry was pictured in a club - it almost felt like returning to the scene of a crime. I decided to go along with it, knowing that there was nothing really wrong with the suggestion.

"Yeah sounds like a good idea, he said he would be back about 7ish which means we have 3 hours to get everything ready." I smiled, now excited with the idea.

"Louis and Niall you can go and sort out the venue, chose whichever one you like but make it good. Liam and Zayn you can be in charge of sorting out the security, we'll need a few there just incase. Me and Hayley will sort out how to get Harry there, got it?" I asked switching into organisation mode. They nodded their heads, Louis and Niall saluting me as everyone left and dispersed to do their jobs.
