"Ave," I hear as a quiet mumble in my ear. "Baby, wake up. Before Vic comes in and starts yelling at you."

I laugh lightly as I turn onto my side and curl up against Harry. "Good morning, H."

He kisses my nose and smiles. "Good morning, love. Happy anniversary."

"Happy anniversary," I respond in giggles due to him continuously kissing all over my face. I push him away finally, only to have him grab my face again and place his lips on mine. My stomach flutters with butterflies due to the steamy kiss that makes me think of last night.

I'd missed him so much over the last month or so. Due to the fact that he was actually working and not just doing things here and there, we hadn't been able to talk as much as we usually do when we're separated. It felt like we were apart for forever when it really wasn't that long.

"Ava, rise and shine!" I hear from the other side of the wall.

"I told you," Harry mumbles as he pulls away. "It was only a matter of time."

I sigh and give him one more lingering kiss. "I know. But I just wanna stay here with you."

He smiles and sits up slightly. "I wish you could just lay here all day with me, but I already ordered room service and it's in the other room so we should actually get up."

I crawl out of bed and grab some shorts and one of his hoodies, slipping them on before following Harry out into the main room. As I get a look at what is laid out on the table, my feet come to a sudden stop against the carpet. Harry wraps his arms around me from behind, hiding his face in my neck. On the table there was plates of food, but also about five dozen roses and a few little bags under the roses. He'd ordered all of my favorites - waffles, chocolate covered strawberries, and hot chocolate.

I turn in his arms and hug him, kissing his jawline before mumbling thank you a few times. We go over to the table and start eating, despite my curiosity about what exactly was in the bags under the flowers. I never get to find out before Vic is yelling at us through the door and Harry is dragging me off to the bathroom to take a shower. We're out the door in like forty minutes and immediately Victoria is leading us down to the lobby while Becca is handing Harry and I coffees.

The first stop of the day is at a local news station, where I'll be doing an interview and a few songs. When we get there, there's a group of fans outside waiting for my arrival. I turn to Harry and he nods before we dodge out of the huddle of my team and go over to them. It's to the point where we don't even get yelled at anymore, we just get a collection of annoyed sighs and a lot of glares.

Once everybody has got a picture and such, Harry grabs my hand and we head inside. I'm ushered off into quick hair and makeup, then off to do some vocal warm ups. I do the interview first, then they go to commercial and I head over to the performance area. As soon as we're wrapped, we head of to the first of three radio interviews.

"I can't wait to head home," I sigh as we head into the hotel room. We have to pack up everything and then we can finally head back to London. My parents and cousins had gone to London this morning to tour the area and wait for me to get back.

When we get everything in the bedroom all packed up, Harry tells me he wants me to open the gifts that are in the other room. Before we go out there, I call Becca and get his present from her since I'd told her to hold onto it (I didn't think I'd see him until we were back in London). Once I have it, we sit down in the middle of the living room area on the floor. He hands me a bag as soon as I'm comfortable, not even trying to hide his eagerness.
