*Dru's pov*

I walked along the streets of London, holding Daniel's little brother, Jai, in my arms. Jai was three and even though he resembled Daniel with his messy dark brown hair and big eyes he was nothing like him: he was quiet but also very active. Daniel had to work a shift at Starbucks today so I was left talking care of Jai, not that I minded because he was the most adorable baby I had every met and we were close since I knew him since he was born. I decided to take him to the park since he enjoyed that and he could play around for a bit since it was a nice sunny day.

I was busy wondering how the visit from Daniel's mom had resulted in her leaving us with his little brother and telling us she'd come back for him a couple of days later, when I spotted the 'Up All Night Tour' dvd in a window of HMV. They are really everywhere, and they're blowing up even more with their next single coming out soon. I knew this because, as always Daniel could not stop talking about how they were recording for their next album and how it was going to be the 'best thing that ever came upon earth' in Daniel's words. Not so long ago seeing a book by One Direction would've bothered me but now - seeing as I saw Harry around anyways, and that I had lost my hate for him - I didn't really mind. I also didn't mind seeing the rest of the boys anymore, because I had gotten to know them a bit better and they were honestly nice guys.

His face in the window of the CD shop reminded me that I hadn't seen him since the day we went to see Women in Black, a week ago. Never again was I going to agree to watch a scary movie with him since he would just make it ten times scarier, even though I did find the little things he did amusing. We haven't run into each other, I mused. I tried to figure out whether I was happy about it or not and finally decided that I missed him and his cheeky grins just a little.

In the past days I had had long discussions with Daniel about my feelings for the curly-haired popstar, and I had concluded that I enjoyed Harry's company. He could be quite annoying but mostly I found it funny, and now that we had a new found friendship I could be calm and nicer around him. However, Daniel had reached other conclusions: I fancied Harry. Yeah right. That was never going to happen, and I am sure of that. I just can't like him because it's too complicated and me and complicated are not a good pair.

Jai shifted in my arms as I turned the corner and bumped into someone. "Aah!" he squealed, as his little hands tightened on my upper arms.

"Oops!" I muttered as I stumbled backwards and looked up to see who I had bumped into. An incredulous gasp escaped my lips, "Harry!" I said as I looked into his smiling green eyes. "This has to stop! If we keep bumping into each other we will end up getting hurt!"

He grinned at me "I know! One day I'll probably lose balance and you won't catch me!" he chuckled, before his eyes fell on Jai. "Who's he?"

I grinned mischieviously, deciding to tease him a little. "My son." I answered seriously, and watched Harry's face fall into a shocked expression. His eyes widened and he looked as if he was trying to say something but couldn't form any words. I tried to hold back my laughter but failed. "I'm kidding...You should've seen your face!" I told him before starting to laugh madly. "He's Daniel's little brother." He let out a big breath and narrowed his eyes at me. "Do not scare me like that!" I swallowed my laughter and put on an innocent expression.

"Sorry!"

"Where are you guys going?" Harry asked, directing the question at Jai.

"The park!" The little boy answered happily, and looked up at him.

"I'll walk you!" Jai nodded frantically in my arms at the idea.

"You were headed in the other direction." I stated "Aren't you going somewhere?"
