***Harry's P.O.V.*** (Early update)
''Lou, can I ask you something?'' I asked him as we were getting ready for an interview an hour from now.
''You just did,'' he replied from the stall next to me and I could hear the smile in his voice.
''Can I ask another?'' I sighed.
''You just did,'' he said again.
I cursed under my breath as I realized I had done it again. I always fell for that. ''Louis, this is serious,'' I told him and it went silent for a while.
''Please tell me you're not going to say that you're breaking up with Elizabeth,'' Louis pleaded and my eyebrows furrowed in frustration.
''What? No, no, nothing like that,'' I assured him, ''but it is about her.''
''Than shoot,'' Louis replied as I heard him walk out of his stall.
''What do you think it means when a girl cries after seeing a kid?'' I finally questioned. I stepped out of the stall and walked to the sinks where Louis stood with a raised eyebrow.
''Elizabeth cried after seeing a kid?'' I nodded. ''Did the kid say something or do something bad to her?''
''No, it was Lux,'' I explained, ''just a few minutes ago when we were back stage I showed her around. Lou said she needed me to watch Lux and I started to play with her while Elizabeth watched. I asked her if she wanted to play with us and when I looked up I could have sworn that I saw her wipe away a few tears.''
''Well,'' Louis drawled, ''did you ask her about it?''
''Ii didn't want to push her,'' I sighed as I started to dry my hands with the paper towels.
''Where is she now? Maybe I could ask her about it,'' Louis suggested.
''She's alone with Lux right now, I was actually going to check on her to see if she was alright.''
''I'll do it, go talk to the boys before we have to go on, I'll join in a few minutes.''

''What'd she say?'' I finally questioned Louis when we got home from the interview and Elizabeth had gone to bed.
Louis dragged his hand down his face as he looked up at me, ''she didn't want to talk about it.''
''That's it?'' I wondered.
''Yeah, I came into the room and she was doing fine. Lux and her were getting along real well. I came in while Lux was playing with her dolls and asked Elizabeth about it and she just got really quiet,'' Louis explained.
I thought for a moment about his words as I tried to think about what it could mean. ''You don't she'd keep it a secret if it was something really big, do you?''
''I really cant tell you what I think. Just don't worry about it, Harry, if she wants to tell you she'll tell you and if she doesn't than she wont. Just have fun. She leaves the day after tomorrow and it's never good to leave off on a sour note,'' Louis advised and I nodded my understanding. The weeks had flown by so fast and couldn't believe that tomorrow would be Saturday and then the morning after that she would be off to the rest of Europe than longer than I thought I could bare. I was having trouble believing i could handle it and it had been keeping me awake at night just to think about it. I was just worried that after months of being away, we would have to start over again.
''I just don't want to mess this up,'' I told him and he nodded in agreement.
''Be careful tomorrow, don't drink too much. We wouldn't want you to be a complete wreck when she says goodbye at the airport,'' Louis brought up as he walked to the kitchen. I didn't think that would be possible though. I might have to drink just to forget about it all.

We went to the club for a sort of farewell party for Elizabeth. It was evident that she wasn't very fond of the large and boisterous crowds at the clubs when we went, but the boys and I wanted to go to a place where we could unwind. We had thought about going to a more private place but it was last minute and we preferred this place anyways. By the time it reached ten o'clock I was already tipsy and the room seemed to be going every which way.
Elizabeth seemed to be having fun which was good, but she looked a little sad while the rest of the boys drank with me. I forget when my thoughts had been completely drowned out by the alcohol, but at some point I became too intoxicated to even comprehend my own actions. And I guess that was my mistake...
