The Opening Act (H.S) {Completed - Editing}

Anne's Got Plans

@MissAvaMae: my everything♡ (also old pic bc he won't let me post a new one because of his hair not being styled today🙄)

The Manchester show had finally rolled around, the show happening tomorrow. Harry just texted saying he was a few minutes away, which prompted me to get up and finish packing up my bag. It's only eight in the morning, so I'm kinda slow in doing so but I get it done. The buses were parked at the venue already and Harry was coming to get me to take me to Anne's, where we were going to stay for the next week.

I was waiting outside when the familiar Range Rover pulled through the open gap between the fencing. He puts the car in park and shuts it off, then climbs out. Within seconds of him closing the door behind him, my arms are around him. He laughs lightly, stumbling back a little from the sudden hug. His arms wrap around my waist and he lifts me off my feet as he holds me tight against him. We go through the usual process of being reunited; mumbling to each other and being all disgustingly loving.

We eventually pull away from each other and get into the car. Harry's hand is holding mine as soon as he gets the chance to intertwine his fingers with mine. He starts the car and pulls out of the gated area, then hits the road. I was excited to see his family and I know he's even more excited to not only see his family, but his home town.

As soon as we pulled into the drive of the house, we barely had time to breathe before Anne was running over to us. I watched Harry roll his eyes as his mother hugged him, but small laughter fell from his lips too as he wrapped his arms tightly around her. She comes over to greet me as Harry grabs our stuff from the back of the car. We all head in, where I'm nearly tackled by Gemma. Harry scoffs of annoyance at the fact that she had headed straight for me, but couldn't hold his grudge as she tackled him in a hug too.

Harry takes our stuff to his room while Gemma and Anne drag me into the living room. Once we're all sitting down, Gemma looks over at me expectantly.

"You have to fill us in on everything that you've got planned," Gemma says excitedly. "Harry is absolutely horrid at explaining things over the phone."

"Rude," Harry mumbles as he walks into the living room. He stands behind where I'm sitting on the couch and leans down, placing a gentle kiss to my temple. "You want anything to drink, love? M'gonna make some tea for myself."

"Please and thank you," I tilt my head to look at him, giving him a cheesy smile. He smiles back, chuckling lightly for no apparent reason. "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing," he shakes his head, still smiling. "You're just adorable, s'all. Peppermint tea or something else?"

"That works," I nod.

He kisses my cheek quickly before standing up and offering to make his mom and sister something. After getting answers from them, he retreats to the kitchen.

"That was stupidly adorable," Gemma scoffs. "Who knew he was such a softie?"

"I've always known, if I'm honest," Anne laughs. "Never would tell him that though. Anyway, back to wedding plans. Fill us in!"

"Well, we've got a lot of the planning done already to tell you the truth," I laugh. "We're such workaholics that I guess it's normal for us to plan things so well. We're going with lavender and gold for the colors, but there will be tons of color on top of that since it's outside in the forrest. We really want to embrace the fact that we're doing it at the cabin, so we have all of these ideas saved on my laptop on how we want to include flowers and greenery in the decorations. Actually, a lot of what we have planned is on my computer so let me go grab it."
