I am discharged the next morning. Amy texts me saying that she is booked in London that night. With one call my plan is in full swing. I smile and lay in bed, hoping that it will work.

I clean the house a bit too waste time. As I finish downstairs there is a knock at the door. I open it and frown when I see who it is.

"What do you want Zoe?" I ask.

"To thank you for the night at the party." She says. I give her a confused look.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"We slept together silly. It was amazing." She says. I roll my eyes.

"Zoe, your right, that night was amazing." I say. "Come in, I need to show you something." She winks and walks in, she must also not remember what happened.

"Yes babes." She says. I sit on the sofa and open my phone. She sits uncomfortably close to me."

"Alex sent me the security footage of that night." I say. She purrs and strokes my arm. I press play and watch Zoe's face turn form turned on to complete disgust in seconds. I start laughing.

"Oh my god!" She shouts. I laugh harder. "I'm going to ruin you." She growls.

"If you even try this is being sent to everyone you know." I say sternly. She bobs her mouth open and closed then runs out.

"That was fun to watch." Alex says, walking in as Zoe runs out.

"Very." I say and put my phone away. "How's Scarlett?" I ask.

"Fine, no one saw us jumping out of the window so it's all good." He says. I raise my plastered arm.

"Yep, all good." I say. He rolls his eyes and we chill for a while. Watching movies and eating until it is time to go to London. Alex says he will meet me there with Scarlett.

I get ready in the best clothes I have that fit my arm and I start driving to London. I drive to the bar and go down the road to a hotel. I see the familiar smartly dressed man and I shake his hand.

"Harry, good to see you." He says.

"You too Soren." I say and smile.

"So, is this Amy as good as you say?" He asks.

"Better." I say. "You'll see." I add.

"We will." He says.

"Good, well, I don't want her to connect anything, I want to keep this a surprise until after. If you don't like it just go, but because you will you go backstage and tell her. Then when she tells me I will tell her my role. Ok?" I ask.

"Yep." Soren says. I nod and I head back to the bar. I greet Alex and Scarlett and we start drinking. On the second round of drinks there is a tap on my shoulder. I turn and see Amy's dad.

"Hello." I say and shake his hand.

"Harry." He says with slight annoyance. "You did the right thing by throwing up on the girl." He says and laughs. I smile and I get him a drink.

When Amy comes on the four of us cheer and Amy smiles at us. She starts playing her set. The drunken crowd dance and Alex and Scarlett join them. As I watch them I see Soren and give him a tiny nod, saying that that is her. He widens his eyes and smiles. I raise my glass and drink.

Scarlett offers a dance so I mouth to Amy that it is Alex's girlfriend and she nods. Scarlett and I dance platonically. Until Alex takes over again.

Amy seems so comfortable up there somehow. She looked anxious as she went on but now, she looks so peaceful now.

It doesn't seem like an hour but soon enough she walks off stage and normal music is played through the speakers. Amy comes straight to me.

"You can dance with me now if you want." She says. I smile and we dance together for a while. When the song finishes Soren comes up behind Amy and taps her shoulder, smiling at me.

"Amy. My name is Soren McAdams. I am a talent scout, I would like to offer you the chance to have a record deal with my company. You will need to have a demo made but with your voice it is almost guaranteed." Soren says. Amy gasps and hugs Soren. He smiles at me as he hugs back. They exchange contact information and Soren leaves.

"Can you believe that?" Amy squeals. I smile.

"Yeah, I'm not surprised." I say. She gives me a weird look. "I might have pulled a few strings so that he would be here." I say and smile. She hugs me.

"Harry, you didn't have to." She says.

"I wanted to." I say as I wrap my arms around her. "I love you." I say. She lets go of me and I loosen my grip but I hold her against me.

"Really?" She asks.

"Of course I do." I say. "I broke into a house to get the vomiting video, which I had to break my arm for. If that is not love I don't know what is." I say and chuckle. She smiles and kisses me.

"I love you too." She says. I smile and kiss her again.

"Are you mine?" I ask.

"Always have been. Always will be." She says.

"So, do you believe in happy endings now?" I ask.

"Maybe." She winks. I laugh and we join the crowd to dance.
