Becca sighed deeply, sitting on the couch in her family's living room. It had been a week since she and Katy had gotten back, and they'd managed to finish the collaborations with Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Bea Miller, and the utters, except Little Mix. They were going to meet later that day, and Becca was already tired.

"You okay there Becca?" Becca's heavily pregnant sister Anne asked, carefully sitting down next to her. Becca opened her eyes and replied,

"Yeah, just tired. It's been so busy, and it's only going to get busier." Anne picked up a toy from the floor, putting it in the toy basket near her feet.
"At least you aren't nine months pregnant about to pop at any minute."

Becca chuckled.

"Has the baby room been done yet?"
Anne shook her head.
"No, Bernard hasn't had the time. Would you like to do it?" Becca shrugged.

"Sure. Hope you don't have too much planned, because I'll probably only have about three days to do it."

"Nope, just a fresh coat of paint, and some new furniture. If you want to make it more feminine I don't mind."

"Ok. I'll start when I get home from the meeting in a few hours."

Becca and Katy were now at the studio, waiting for Little Mix to arrive. While Becca wrote lyrics that popped into her head, Katy texted Niall until the girl band got there.

After about an hour, Little Mix arrived, and the girls stood, greeting them. They went into the recording room, and Becca suggested,

"Why don't we all sing a cover before we sing the actual song, so we know how to harmonize with each other."

They all agreed and Katy chose the song Our Song by Taylor Swift, then they recorded it about three times before getting the hang of harmonizing together. When at last they did, they spent the next five hours singing and recording the song Becca wrote; Turn Your Face. Becca had supplied the piano for it, and it was a slower song, which was more of the rare songs for DayDream, but Katy and Becca were trying to expand their genre. Becca had written one song that had rather a country sound, named Better Dig Two.

After this, the six girls agreed to meet again, and Becca suggested the girls come on tour with them for the American leg of the tour, which they gladly accepted. They decided to meet two days before the girls started their tour, and the two women departed, Becca going to her house while Katy went to her own house.

............................................................

It was the day before Becca and Katy left for the tour, and Becca and Katy were helping out Becca's sisters at her grandmother's house, cleaning up so Becca wouldn't get bored, and because she felt like cleaning but their house was clean, as well as the tour bus. So they were cleaning Becca's grandmother's house.

Becca was taking a break, sitting outside to clear her head after breathing in so many cleaning chemicals. It was surprisingly cool for Texas in April, a freshening breeze pushing her long hair off her shoulders. Soon, her phone rang, and she picked it up, seeing Harry's name on the caller ID.

"Hey Harry, what's up?" She asked, smiling.

"I'm really bored, so I was wondering if there was any way you could ease my brain." Harry replied, and Becca laughed.

"Well you can come watch us clean if you want, but just a warning, my grandmother will probably put you to work if you're just standing around."

"That's fine." Harry chuckled. Becca laughed and gave him her grandparents address.

"I'll be there in about half an hour." Harry said.

"Ok. Looking forward to it." Becca said, laughing lightly.

"Me too. Bye." Harry laughed, and Becca ended the call. She put her phone back in her pocket, and after a while, went back inside.

Harry soon got to the house, bringing Niall with him, and they hadn't been watching Katy and Becca work fir long, before Becca's grandmother did indeed come and put them to work.
Becca laughed.

"I warned you!" She said, cleaning a kitchen window. Harry rolled his eyes as he swept, making her laugh again.

"I don't mind, really." He said, and Becca pushed the window back into place before wiping her hands on her jeans.

"And why is that, Mister Styles?" She asked, taking the broom from him and continuing to sweep as he hopped onto the counter.

"Simple. I get to be near you longer." He said, and Becca flushed before putting the broom in the closet, taking out the dust pan.

"That's really sweet. I'm glad I get to be near you, too." She replied, emptying the dust pan. She put it away, leaning against the counter near Harry's legs, looking at the list her grandmother had written for her, and checked the last thing off. She put down the paper and leaned against Harry, resting her head against his side.

"Are you excited about the tour?" He asked, resting his arm on top of hers. Becca nodded.

"Yeah, I can't wait to perform with Little Mix. They're going to teach us some choreography for their songs, which I think is going to be awesome. I've always wanted to learn how to dance."

"That's neat. How many songs are they going to sing?"

"All their singles from their new album, and some others, as well as our collaboration, obviously."

"Is Taylor Swift going to perform with you?"

"Yeah, she's going to perform with us about fifteen times. She wanted to do the American part of the tour, but she's going to be starting her tour soon as well. We're going to do the American part of the tour with her though."

"We aren't going to have as impressive of a concert as you guys are. We have Icona Pop opening for us, but that's it." Becca laughed.

"Doesn't matter, Directioners won't mind." Harry laughed.
