We made it to the hotel and Harry asked why we wouldn't just stay at my

Moms house. I guess he'll find out soon. Darcy fell asleep during the car ride here but woke up as soon as we parked the car. I grabbed Darcy and her baby bag then started walking towards the hotel room.

I set the bag down on the table in to corner as Harry brought in our suitcases. "So babe are we going leave for your moms after this?" He spoke up.

"Yeah just let me change, are the flowers still in the car?" I asked.

"Yup they are already to go, I'll change Darcy's diaper as you change." He took Darcy from my arms and placed a kiss on my cheek. 

I walked into the small hotel bathroom and placed my hands on the counter, placing all my weight onto them. I stared at my reflection, reminding myself that i can do this. Harry needs to know the truth. Its kind of crazy how all of this really started. I mean we really rushed into things. I know I wanted to grow up, but not this fast. We barely knew each other at the beginning yet he asked me out. I think if I could go back i would get to know harry for himself and not as the Harry Styles from One Direction. I feel bad actually I never really knew the real him but I fell so fast for him because he was my favorite in the band. But this is reality and there is no turning back. Don't get me wrong I love Harry for who he is and I love this little family we created together, I just wish we waited longer to have kids and to really start our lives. Hes still in the band and I don't think One Direction is going anywhere anytime soon. 

Its really the what ifs ya know? Like what if I never met harry and the other boys. Would I still be living in a little flat with Sydney? Would our bakery go anywhere? Would I actually go to school and do something with my life? Would I meet a nice boy and start a steady relationship? But I don't really care for those other stories I would take my shitty random life over any of those. 

There's a slight knock at the door and a low "Babe are you almost ready to go Darc is getting ansty." Harry's voice doesn't sound on edge so I don't think hes really expecting anything else besides meeting my mom for the first time.

"Yeah I'll be right out." I try to keep my voice normal so he doesn't see through my lies. 

I splash some cold water on my face and take one last look in the mirror than walked back into the room. Harry and Darcy aren't in the room when I come out so I figured they were just waiting for me outside. I slip on my keds, and go out to the car. I'm really glad no fans followed us, sometimes its nice to act like a normal family and not like Harry is an international pop star. 

"Want me to drive?" Harry asks holding out his hand for the keys to the jeep. I shake my head and walk on the other side of the car.

"No it's fine. I like the drive anyways, it's peaceful." I admit. The ride to my mothers grave was nice. I'd always think of how close we were when she was still on this earth with me until I met Harry. When he came around in my life it felt like I could finally take a breath and relax more then I was able to. "Will you put Darcy in her seat?" I ask opening the door.

On the way to the cemetery I didnt speak one word. It seemed like the closer we got the more my nerves got to me and the more I wanted to turn back and fake being sick or something so we could put this off for a couple of days. The clouds begin to darken and small water droplets fall from the sky.

"Babe maybe we should go tomorrow. It's starting to get really bad out." Harry suggests.

"No." I say quickly, "my mom busy tomorrow, and for the rest of the week. So this will be her only chance to meet you." I adjust myself in my seat before turning at the light.

"We have all next week too. We can go then maybe? I didn't bring an umbrella so we might get soaked before going into her house."

"It'll be fine. I always keep one behind my seat anyways."

By the time we make our last turn into the grave sight, it was poring and Darcy was starting to act up again. I pull into the gate and drive around the curvy blacktop to the section where her resting place was.

"Lyss?" Harry questions, "Wha-why are we here?" 

"I-I have to show you something." My nerves take over my body and I open the door without thinking about the rain. "Would you get Darcy?" I say walking out into the rain and walk over to the gray, marbled stone with my mothers name engraved into it. This was it, and there was no turning back now. Water begins to form in my eyes. I set the flowers down next to my mothers name and look over to the other graves.

"Alyssa?!" Harry yells over with Darcy under the umbrella. I look over to him slowly making his way over with our daughter than look back down to my mom and smile a little. "Alyssa?" I hear Harry right behind me. I close my eyes and let the water drop from my body and onto my cheeks while I let the rain pore onto my skin.

All of a sudden the nerves went away and were replaced by relaxation. I can't help to think that this was the way of my mom telling me that everything will be okay. I could feel her presence next to mine almost as if her hand was resting on my shoulder like she used to do when I was younger, thinking of every single memory I had with her. When I open my eyes and look in front of me of the grave of her I smile again. 

"Hey, I have two people for you to meet today. I know you told me that the only boy you'd want to meet was the one who I loved with all my heart and who I wanted to marry one day. I know daddy always said no man was worth my time but, I think I've proved him wrong. I met this nice, amazing actually guy. He makes me so happy and gives me hope for everything I want to achieve in my life." I look back at Harry standing there, with a puzzled look on his face and take his hand and pull him next to my side wrapping my left arm around his tall body. His one is arm holding Darcy and other holding the umbrella. "Mom, this is Harry, and this is our daughter, Darcy. She's about 6 months now, but you probably already know that if you've been watching over me up there. He's like the prince I'd always talk about from my dreams and how I'd find him one day. Well, this is him."

"Alyssa." Harry sympathetically says. Before I could explain I see a man with a black rain coat walking towards us with flowers in their hands. I look towards them more and see the silver ring on their finger.

"Dad?"
