I looked at myself in the mirror as I buttoned the first few buttons of my polo shirt. I was preparing to go to Harry's parents barbecue, but sadly I was heading their alone. Harry had been called into the office and wouldn't be able to attend until later that evening.

I heard a soft knock on the door and I looked to the door seeing Taylor peaking his head in. "Ready to head out Mr. Horan?" I smile and nod grabbing my phone and charger walking with him. He leads me down the stairs and I turn off all the lights before heading outside to the truck. "Mr. Styles called" He says as he gets into the car.

"And said?"

I heard a soft knock on the door and I looked to the door seeing Taylor peaking his head in. "Ready to head out Mr. Horan?" I smile and nod grabbing my phone and charger walking with him. He leads me down the stairs and I turn off all the lights before heading outside to the truck. "Mr. Styles called" He says as he gets into the car.

"And said?"

"That he would get to you as soon as he could." I smile at Harry's words and lean my head against the window. I do wish that he could be with me right now but I understand his need to work. I forced him not to on our honeymoon and I'm sure that he's missed a lot.

Once the car starts I feel my phone vibrating in my lap before I hear the sound of Harry's ringtone. I quickly answer the phone placing it to my ear. "Yes Mr. Styles"

"Did Taylor give you my message?" He asks and I shake my head laughing a little.

"Yes he did. We are heading to your parents now. You called me to ask me that?" I arch my eyebrow.

"I did indeed. I'm in the middle of a meeting right now." My eyes widen and I imagine 10 or more people staring at him wondering who in the hell he could be on the phone with.

"Harry you could have called me after"

"It's fine" I can tell he moves the phone away from his mouth but I can still hear him mutter. "It's my husband" I can't help but feel giddy from those 3 simple words.

"Get back to work, I'll see you in a few hours" I smile leaning my head against the window.

"Alright alright, I love you"

"I love you too" I smile and hang up the phone.

Soon the car stops outside of Styles Manor and I look out of the window up at the shining house. I look up to Taylor watching as he steps out of the car to open the door before me. Before he gets the chance to I open the door for myself and he chuckles. "Mr. Styles that's my job"

"You and Harry know about how I feel about being waited on" I shake my head crossing my arms around myself. 

"Orders from the boss that I am required to follow Mr. Styles" He smiles and I pat his shoulder before heading to the door. I gently knock on the door and seconds latter Anne is answering the door.

"Niall you made it just in time, dinner is being set out now. I was planning on waiting for Harry but he insisted that we go on and dine without him." I do my best to smile but it's hard to. I don't want to accept that, being back in the real world means that I will be seeing less and less of my husband. But I know how important his work is to him so I will remain quiet for as long as I can.

Anne leads me throughout the house and straight into the backyard. I can see Edward and Amelia chatting towards the edge of the garden so I decide to make may way towards them. As soon as Amelia sees me she lets out a sharp squeal before wrapping her arms around my neck. 

"Niall I feel like I haven't seen you in ages" I laugh a little before wrapping my arms around her hugging her back.

"I missed you" I mumble into her hair and she simply pats my back muttering the same words back to me. Next is Edward and we pretty much do the same routine. We stand there for a while talking about anything that we can think of. It was nice to talk to people freely about other things that I couldn't talk to Harry about. Not that Harry and I spent our honeymoon talking a lot. My eyes gaze down to my wrists seeing the small bruises left there from the handcuffs. That man and his handcuffs.

"Food is ready!" Robin yells and we all make our way towards the table where the food is set up. I take my seat towards the edge of the table picking a few things to eat. I run my fingers through my hair before hearing the sound of my phone ringing. I quickly excuse myself from the table and walk to the edge of the garden. 

"Hello?" 

"Niall?" I can hear the sound of Harry's voice on the other end of the line and for a moment I'm confused. This isn't his number. 

"Harry who's number is this? Is everything alright?" 

"Are you with my parents?" He asks ignoring both of my questions. Per usual.

"Yes I am" 

"Good stay there" The line goes dead and I attempt to call back but get no answer. What the hell was that about? I hate how he only tells me part of what's going on. Ever since the mysterious plane malfunction he's been so secretive and now this. I walk back to the table taking my seat yet again.

"Everything alright Niall?" Robin asks and I nod not even sure if I'm telling the truth or not. With Harry who knows if everything's alright or not.

Guys I am so sorry about how long it's been taking me to update. I'm just starting to lose my motivation or something. I'm sorry if the book is starting to suck. I didn't really like the last book of the series so that's more than likely why I can't really get into it as much. But I will be sure to finish it for you guys. Anyway I hope to update soon.

 Love you bunches xoxo
