It had to have been a coincidence that my mum and dad happened to meet in the exact same spot where I met Harry, I wasn't going to let myself believe I was reliving my mother's life.

"Did they go to the same school we did?" Harry asked reading over the pages in my hands.

"Yeah, they did" I answered closing the book and setting it on the nightstand and grabbing Harry's book.

I had to finish it.

"I see you're almost done with the book" Harry said lying on his stomach to smile cheekily up at me.

I smiled at him with raised eyebrows, "You're not angry anymore?"

He sighed, "I don't want to waste our time arguing" he told me, "Because I'm usually the one who starts it"

"But if I were to go-"

"Let's save it for the morning" he muttered getting up and taking his trousers and shirt off then hiding his body underneath the covers pretending to fall asleep.

I sighed setting the laptop back on the small desk we had in the bedroom and went into the bathroom to get ready for bed.

I groaned reaching for my ringing phone turning off the alarm I had set for work, I wasn't in the mood for waking up, especially since I had to talk to Harry about maybe having to go to America.

Harry walked out of the bathroom with a toothbrush in his mouth, "The laptop's been dinging all morning, the shit woke me up" his muffled voice said through the foam in his mouth, "You should check it out"

I dragged myself out of the bed sitting at the chair opening the laptop and logging into Harry's account going into my own email inbox.

I scrolled through the endless files of trash and spam until I got to one that caught my eye. Hello Love it titled, I clicked on it scrolling through the wording.

Vanessa & Liam,

It's incredible to hear from you! Karen never told me she had children, I'm a Granny! I would absolutely adore to see you two and how grown you are, I don't know how old you are!

My heart raced, I scrolled farther down seeing her address and phone number on it. I quickly lunged for my phone dialing Liam's number.

"She answered!" I exclaimed before he had the chance to say hello.

"Gran?"

"Yes!" I said excited, "She gave me an address and everything! Liam, she wants to meet us! We can go!"

"Whoa hold on now, I told you we need to plan this out. When we're leaving when we're coming back"

"Yeah yeah, but Liam that's not important. This is our grandmother we're talking about, she'll probably smother us with cookies and all the birthday money she's missed" I joked with a giggle

"You know Vanessa life isn't like the movies" he said bringing me down.

My shoulders slouched and my smile disappeared, "I know, I kind of learned the hard way"

As if on cue, Harry walked out sliding himself next to me on the desk "Who are you talking too?" he mouthed sliding the computer screen to see.

"Just plan faster please, I really want to go as soon as possible" I told Liam, he agreed and I hung up.

"Who's this from?" Harry asked referring to the email.

"Ever heard of privacy?" I giggled going to the bed with the laptop, "It's from my Gran, the one I want to visit in Florida"
