HARRY'S POV:

"Well Los Angeles, this is it! The last song of the last stop on our tour!" Niall yelled. The crowd screamed deafeningly.

"We could not be more excited to share this wonderful moment with you." Zayn said, passing the mic to Liam.

"We are so sad that this tour has to end because it truly has been an incredible experience. " The crowd screamed again, not that they had ever stopped. Louis took the mic next.

"We want to thank all of you for your constant dedication and love. We promise we'll come back soon!" Louis waved and passed the mic to me. I purposefully held the mic to mouth and gave the crowd the sexiest look I could muster to get them hyped before opening my mouth.

"LOS ANGELES LET ME HEAR YOU SCREAM!!!"

I have never heard an arena as loud as this one. I looked out into the seemingly endless crowd and took in their energy, letting it fill me to make this last song the best song ever.

"This is Best Song Ever!" I exclaimed as the beginning notes of the song started.

We all gave it every ounce of energy and projection we could muster, and by the end of it, I was exhausted but still filled with adrenaline.

"Goodnight Los Angeles! Drive carefully!" I heard Niall yell. That was my cue to say the last remarks before being the last to jump into the trap door.

"Thank you LA for giving us the best concert yet! We'll be back soon for our next world tour for our new album! Hope to see all of you again! Goodnight!" With that I ran and jumped into the strategically placed opening in the floor, letting the mat below the stage catch me. I jumped up quickly and ran to the dressing room to find Hanna and my family. They had all come out to see our last performance of the Take Me Home tour. Hanna met me halfway there and took my sweaty hand in hers without any protest.

"Harry that was your best performance yet! I'm so glad your family saw it." She beamed.

"Thanks love, so who all was able to come?" I asked anxiously.

"Gemma, her fiancé, Mum, and John. Reagan's here too but she ran off somewhere to surprise Louis."

I snorted.

"They're probably doing it in the bathroom right now." I suggested.

"Probably, but who cares. Your family is here." She shrugged.

"And your mum." I added silently. I felt my arm tug as she stopped mid stride and glared at me.

"Harry, she's still family you know? She still loves you dearly and would do anything for you. She still thinks of you as a son even after all that's happened. Nothing has changed except a legal title." She whispered. I could tell she wanted more than anything for me to believe her. So I smiled and tried to let her words soak into my brain. We finally reached the dressing room and were met with bright smiles and warm hugs.

"Harry love, that was amazing! I know I say this every time I see you perform but it really was your best performance yet!" Maria exclaimed, quickly enveloping me into a hug. After she released me my dad pulled me into an awkward one armed hug that seemed genuine. Everyone seemed to be playing nice considering...

"It was good, but your voice cracked in Over Again." Gemma teased. 

"I can always count on your honesty Gem." I laughed as I pulled her in for a hug. The love fest continued with some surprises. I found out Duke, Mary, Hailey, and Jack had all flown out to see the last show. It wasn't as awkward with Hailey as I thought it would be. She seemed happier. She clung to Jack and I suspected that they might start a thing if it wasn't started already which I suspect it had. I was happy for both of them. The laughter around the room quickly broke me out of my funk as we all headed out to dinner.
