A New Chapter. (Sequel to Darcy Anne Styles)

Chapter 18.

I know I have made you guys wait FOREVER for an update, and i'm so sorry. Life is busy, and I know most of you (Probably all) can relate. I WILL make it worth the wait. This Chapter is a decent length, and I am hoping to have another up shortly. Love you all XX- Me.

"Harry's pov"

I freeze, as soon as the words slip past her lips.
I watch as she stands there, not moving, and not facing me... 

"What do you mean?" I ask, and I hear her release a shaking breath.

"What more do you need, Dad. That's a pretty straight-forward statement." She says, still facing away from me.

"Hey Babe! Mr. Styles" Luke exclaims as he walks into the room, nodding in my direction, but walking toward my Daughter.

"Luke." I state, nodding toward him, though my eyes don't leave my Daughter.

I walk toward her, and pull her into a hug.

"Darcy, I love you."I say, though my mind is running somewhere else completely. 

"Love you too, Dad." She says, though her voice sounds hollow, distracted if you will.

I hold her tighter, almost afraid to let go, as though she'll get taken from me.
Finally she retreats from my grip, and walks over to embrace Luke.
I turn around and slowly exit. Kidnapped.

"Darcy's pov"

"How was recording?" I ask Luke, absently.

"Great, our album is almost done."

"Great." I said, though it lacked conviction.

"What's wrong?" He asks, looking concerned.

"It sounds selfish, but we both know what a new and completed album leads too." I say, and he sighs.

"We'll make it through, we always do." he smiles, and I do too.

"So, I feel like our next set of overlapping days off, we should go on vacation." I declare, and he grins.

"That would be nice." He agrees.

"I know just the place." I say, and he raises an eye-brow.

"It's a surprise." I add, and his smirk vanishes.

"But why?" He says, or rather he whines.

"Because you always try to surprise me, and it's my turn." I smirk, seeing his frown get deeper.

"So are you going to make my Brother's wedding?" I ask, hopefully.

"When is it?" He asks, and I bite my lip, thinking of dates.

"Uh, Tuesday." I say, and he gets a nervous look on his face.

"Sorry babe, but actually I came here to mention this to you." He says, and I nod for him to continue.

"Okay, so since we had to uh cancel some of the tour dates, they wanted to make them up this week, starting Monday." He says, and I frown even deeper.

"So you leave tomorrow?" I ask, to confirm.

"Yeah, but not until noon." He says, and I nod.

"How long is it for, since you technically should have been on tour now, instead of recording?" I ask, then instantly regret it.

"Well, they want us to do the dates we had scheduled for now, then do the dates we missed, then start doing interviews and promotions for the new album." He says, and I nod again.

"So your tour was supposed to be two months longer, and you missed like a month and a half, and promo and stuff takes like 3 months, normally. So basically this is the nice way of saying babe i'm going to be gone for over half a year again, starting tomorrow?" I ask, trying (and succeeding) to keep my tone natural, and light.
