Harry Styles; former member of the biggest boy band ever and now solo artist. He's got money, fame, and recognition. Fame gets tiring after awhile.
What if he was able to rewind time and just be... normal?

"Harry, are you almost ready? I told your mom we'd be there within the hour!" I yell for my fiancé, there's no doubt in my mind he's in the bathroom messing with his hair. It amazes me that it still takes him twenty minutes to do his hair even though its a lot shorter now. Walking upstairs to grab Gracie, I'm greeted by a shirtless Harry walking out of the bathroom.
"Sorry love, I was just working on my hair," Told ya. "I'm ready now though." I stifle a laugh. "Uh babe, don't you think you should put a shirt on?" He gives me that award winning smile and remarks, "Why? You don't like me shirtless?" Is he serious right now? "Of course, I do. Your mother and sister on the other hand, not so much." I pick a plain gray t shirt out of the closet and toss it to Harry and he catches it. "Let me go get Gracie dressed and I'll be ready." After dressing her in a warm, fuzzy coat, I pull my phone out of my pocket and snap a selfie of the two of us. She looks adorable when she's all bundled up.

When we arrive at Anne's house, I'm greeted by their cat, Dusty who purrs as he wraps himself around my leg. I watch as Harry picks him up and holds him close to his chest so Gracie can pet him. "Kitty!" Gracie chirps. "Is that my babies I hear?" Anne starts walking down the stairs and wraps all of us in a hug. "Hi, mum." Harry says as he kisses her on the cheek. "Selena, its so good to see you!" She plants a kiss on my cheek as well and then she turns to Gracie. Grabbing her from my arms, she smiles and says "and there's my beautiful baby looking like a proper teddy in that coat." Gracie giggles as her grandma swings her around. "I'm gonna go find Gemma." I say as I excuse myself.
"Gem, where are you?" "I'm in here," I hear her say as music floods from her Bluetooth speaker. "Isn't The 1975 just ace?" She says as I enter her room, her accent thicker than oatmeal. I've learned quite the amount of British slang since dating Harry. "Yeah definitely, they're amazing." She stands up and with a smirk on her face, she says "notice anything?" She does a ballerina twirl. I notice the change immediately. "You cut your hair!" Its shoulder length and she looks adorable. But of course she does. Name a member of this family that doesn't look adorable. I'll wait. "I love it Gem, it suits you so well." After hugging me, she asks "are my brother and niecey here with you?" I nod and we head back downstairs.
"Me favorite sister!" His accent thick when he prounced sister as sista, I giggled. "Correction, your only sister Harry." She corrects him sarcastically as he wraps his arms around her. "Gracie! I have missed you!" Gemma says excitedly as she plants a kiss on top of Gracie's head. "Let's get some tea and we'll chat about all the exciting things happening soon." Anne sweetly says. Harry and I smile as we follow her into the kitchen.

"I love how you've decorated for the holidays!" I compliment as I stare at the beautiful strung up Christmas lights she has hanging around, in no particular order. On the counter sits a nutcracker cookie jar, followed by a beautiful lit up Christmas tree in the living room.
Anne doesn't play when it comes to decorating. I pull out my phone, "get together you guys!" I say to Anne, Harry, and Gemma. Harry stands in between Anne and Gemma. "Cheese!" Harry cheekily remarks.

"That's a cute one!" I say as I smile back at the picture captured on my phone. Harry stands by my side and after looking at the picture, he says "that shirt is a bit nipply on me." We all start laughing and I poke Harry with my finger in his left nipple.
"Come on son, help your old mum make some sarnies." Anne tells Harry as she pulls some bread out of the cupboard. I love watching Harry with his mom. He completely turns into this big adult man child and it takes everything in me to not 'awwww' at the moment. Instead, I snap a quick video of Harry and Anne high fiving each other as they finish up making sandwiches. Gemma walks in with Gracie and we all sit at the square dining table and enjoy lunch.
*******
Anne, Gemma, Harry, and I spent all afternoon talking about the wedding plans and she tells me all about how she and Robin bought Gracie some really nice gifts and joked with Harry by telling him she didnt bother getting him anything. As we say our goodbyes, I tell Gemma I will face time her later in the evening and she hugs me. "Bye everyone, love you!" Anne waves as get in the car and begin to back out of the gravel driveway. "I quite enjoyed seeing my mum and Gem," Harry says as he grabs my hand with his right hand, making sure to keep his left hand on the steering wheel. "I enjoyed seeing her as well. Too bad Robin was working."

When we arrive back home, I notice the time. Its almost 6:45 and as I begin making dinner, Harry wraps his arms around my waist and tells me how much he loves me. "You make me the happiest man alive, Sel. I dont want you to ever forget that." He's been acting more affectionate lately and I love it. I don't know what's snapped in him the past few days but I love it. I love when he calls me Sel also. He knows exactly what to say to make me melt.
