Chapter 19: Take It All The Way

Ashton picked us up at the airport. Harry sits beside him while I was at the back seat.

"Mum knows you'll arrive later night." Ashton says. "It's a surprise." Harry answers. "Is mum home?" I ask. "She is. Maybe sleeping." Ash answers. "Dad sent me a message. Did he call you?" "We met last week." "Are you serious?" "Yeah. I went to Glasgow and we had lunch." Ashton says. "I haven't seen him for ages." I say and leaned back as I look at the window. "Maybe soon." He says.

After about thirty minutes, we arrived.

"This is our house. Welcome." I say as we walked out of the car. "It has been a year and a half since I last came here." I say and Ashton opens the door.

Nothing changed. It's still that chill house I've known. The windows are really big and before I tour Harry around the house, we went upstairs to greet mum.

"Follow me. So, uhm, there's my room, and there's Ashton's but first we come in mum's." I say and Harry smiles. I knocked and opened the door.

"Hi, mum! Happy birthday!" I say and we walked towards her. I gave her a hug and a kiss on her cheek. "Harry!" Mum accepts Harry's wide hug. "Happy birthday, Ms. Moore" Harry says. "Thank you, Harry. I'm very happy to see you." Mum says and stands from her bed. "Have you taken lunch now?" She asks. "Maybe I'll tour Harry around first." I say. "Okay, I'll tell them to cook." She says. "Don't stress yourself, Ms. Moore." Harry says before we walk out. "Where do you wanna go first?" I ask him.

"Ah, my bedroom." I say and pulled his hand. "Come inside." I say after opening the door. "Very nice." He sits on the bed. "A bit bigger than our bedroom in my flat." He says. "Will I be sleeping here later?" He asks me. "Yeah." I nod and he walks towards me as I open the curtains and slide the door open. I walked to the balcony and a view of our garden and pool was seen. "It's really nice here." He says. "The party will be there later." I say as I point to a side. "I like it better here than back in London in the flat." I say with a sigh. "I love it here." He says and our eyes met. "Come. I'll show you our lounge." I say and we slid the door close and went down to the lounge, kitchen, dining and pool.

"So this is the pool, the garden, that's it. Uhm, yeah. Well, basically, this is our house." I say and he smiles. "It's beautiful." He says.

We walked back to our room to change and Harry asked me if he can go down to the garden. Well of course he can and I told him to wait for me there.

I fix my luggage but then my phone rings. Calum is calling.

"Good day." He says as I pick it up before I speak. "Oh, hello." I answer. "How are you? I just called to tell Ms. Moore a happy birthday." He says. "You're in Newcastle right? I just want you to greet her for me." He adds. "How do you know where I am?" I ask him. "Ellie. Then Chris." He answers. "Why would---uh, okay. I'll tell it to her." I say. "Is that all?" I ask him. "Yes. Thank you." He says and I hang up.

He still remembers mum's birthday. I don't know if I should be glad or what because he called but he called because of mum and...I don't know Calum is acting weird. He's never like this before.

I walked down stairs and I bumped to mum.

"Oh, sorry, mum." I say. "Harry and Ashton are outside." She says. "I'll see them." I say and walked outside the pool and at the side was the garden.

"Hello." I say and stood beside Ashton. "What do we have here?" I say and looked at them. "Is it a pool party?" I ask and Harry pulls my arm and he lets me sit on his lap. "No. Mum doesn't want it but you can both swim if you want to." Ashton says. "Can you take a photo of us?" Harry says and reaches his phone to Ash.

He wraps his arms around my stomach and Ashton takes a photo. He gives the phone back to Harry and we continued our conversation.

Harry felt sleepy so we went back to my room for him to rest. He gets under the covers and I follow him. "It's very comfortable here." He says and I turn the telly on but minimised the volume so he could sleep. He pulls me down and starts snogging me. I can't resist kisses from Harry especially when it's like this.

It lasted for a few minutes until someone knocks on my door. "I'll get it first." I say and he gives me a peck on my lips before he gets off. I stand and walked to the door and someone brought us food.

"Your mum asked us to bring this for Harry." says the lady and I let her put it on my desk. "Thank you." Harry says and the lady walks out. "Just for you? So, I have to do my own meal?" I ask myself and him. "Are you going to eat or sleep?" I ask him. "Sleeping sounds great." He says and I went back to my place beside him.

About five in the afternoon when I woke up. Harry is still asleep and the food hasn't been moved. I stand from my bed and walked outside.

"Hi. Uhm, our cousins are here." Ashton says as he walks out of his room. "Who?" I ask. "Uhm, Shannon, Megan, Allie, Michael, Josh, uhm, Rob and Will." Ash says. "Allie's here?" I ask. "Yeah, mum called them. Don't worry. She won't bug you and Harry." Ashton says with a smile and walks away from me.

Should I brag Harry or just lock him in my room tonight? My cousin Allie is a massive Directioner and a Harry girl. When she knew about Harry and I were together she asked me if she could borrow him for a moment, she sounded serious but if it is a joke then I've took it seriously, she still sounded bad for me. I sneak back to my room to turn the telly off and fixed the covers and placed a pillow beside him for Harry to feel comfortable. I walked out and down to the living room. My cousins were watching telly.

"Tara!" Megan says and I smiled. "Oh, sh^t! You're here!" Shannon laughs. Are they really glad to see me or they're just fooling around? "When did you arrive?!" Josh asks me and I sit at the couch beside Will and Megan. "A while ago." I answer. "Alone?" Rob asks. "You haven't been on Twitter, Rob!" Will says and they laughed. "Of course Tara is with Harry!" Allie says and all of them created noise, teasing, laughing and more. "Where's Harry Styles? You brought a celebrity, Tara!" Shannon asks. "Bloody Harry Styles! Really, Tara?!" Michael says as he looked surprised and we laughed. "Allie has been waiting for him!" Josh says and my heart just started to beat fast. "Not only Allie but us all." Michael says and they laughed.

I just noticed that I haven't say anything but just smile and worry about my cousins and Harry.

"You'll get to see him later." I say and they cheered. "That's what we like about you." Rob says and we laughed. I walked to the kitchen to talk to Ashton who was cooking.

"Why are they so early?" I ask Ashton who was chopping the meat. "They are always early, love." Ashton says. "I'm not used of it." I say and sat on the counter. "Get off there." Ashton says. "There are chairs there you can sit there." Ashton says pointing to the high chairs and I was already comfortable in the counter. "Where's mum?" I ask. "Salon." He answers. "Oh, will there be alcohol later?" I ask. "Of course. I asked for it." Ashton says and I nod.

I take my phone out of the pockets of my sweatshirt and received a text message from Ellie asking me about something but I told her I'll call her later then I went on Twitter. I checked on Harry's Twitter first and viewed his last tweets.

"What I love."

A tweet with a photo of me when we were in the Italian restaurant.

"Waiting to fly xx t"

A Vine I got whilst we're waiting for our plane in the airport. He was just smiling.

"I love you."

And this was his last tweet, the photo when we were in the garden that Ashton took whilst I'm sitting on Harry's lap.

"Why are you smiling?" Ashton asks. "I have the best boyfriend, ever." I say and laughed. "How's Katherine?" I ask. "She's doing fine. Kate's coming back next week from Plymouth." He says. "I haven't talked to her though and ask if you have been good to her." I say and Ashton gives me a bad look and I laughed.

"Ah! Sh^t!" "Oh my god!" I hear my cousins say. "What movie are they watching?" Ashton asks. "I don't even know." I shrugged. "Well, it's not a movie though." Ashton says and walks to the cooker.

"Babe." I look at my right and Harry was walking towards me. "You're...you're awake." I say in surprise. "Yeah. I was looking for you." He says as he puts his hands beside my legs on the counter and before I say a word his gives me a kiss. "Tara! My glob!" Megan says and I looked at my side where my cousins were looking at us. "You're friends?" Harry asks. "Cousins." I answer and he smiles to them. "Can we talk for a second?" I say and he nods. "Sure. What is it?" He says with a smile and he moves his face close to mine. "It would be better if we talk about it inside my room." I say and he nods. "Let's go." He says and helps me go down the counter. "Hi, Harry." Allie waves to her and Harry smiles. "We'll be back." I say to them and they smiles. "We need Harry here, Tara." Michael says and they laughed.

I pulled Harry inside and locked the door. He sits on the bed and I stand in front of him. "Don't mess with them." I say and he holds both of my hands and started swinging them. "They're your cousins." Harry says. "But they bite." I say. "I won't let them touch you." I honestly say, well I'm giving him a hint that I easily get jealous, he actually knows this though. "I won't let them touch me either." He says as he stands and gives me a peck on my lips. "I want to meet them. They seem nice." Harry says. "Well, they are nice." I say and Harry smiles. "Then let's see." He says with a smile and I nod.

We walked out of my room and down to the living room where my cousins are.

They all screamed when they saw Harry again and I just laughed.

"Uhm, yeah, so, I guess you all know him." I say. "Mick Jagger?" Michael jokingly says and we laughed. "He's really good looking up close." Megan says. "Let me talk!" I say with a laugh. "So okay, Harry, this is Megan, Allie, Shannon, Josh, Rob, Will and Michael. My cousins." I say and Harry smiles to them. "Glad to meet you all." Harry says and Michael and Josh offers us seat beside them. "Are you serious? God." Megan says and touched Harry's knees. Harry looks at her and she squealed.

"Tara was just all over you before." Shannon says and laughed. "Can I hug him?" Allie asks me and I nod. "Yeah, sure." I say with a light laugh. My cousins sound so different when Harry came down. Allie stands and hugs Harry. "God, the feeling. Is this really Harry Styles?!" Allie says and we laughed.

"Enough now. The girlfriend is right beside you." Rob says and Allie goes back to her seat. "Oh Rob! Tara already has touched every little bit of Harry!" Megan says and it sounded awkward. Megan is just carefree about her words and just says what's in her mind.

"Thank you for bringing my date for the night, Tara." Allie says and they laughed I just smiled. "Allie!" Will calls her with a laugh. My phone vibrates and Ellie's calling. "Excuse me for a moment." I say and looked at Harry. "I'll be back." I tell him and walked away from them. "Hello?" I answer and walked towards the garden.

"Tara. How are you?" Ellie says and I sit down. "I'm fine." I say with a sigh. "No. You aren't." Ellie answers. "Well, it's just my cousins. Anyway, what are you going to ask me?" "Well, I read the soft copy again you gave me here on my iPad, I want to edit this but I can't since it's secured and I just want to ask where is the part where you and Harry went to Ed's concert and the one where Harry gave you the necklace?" Ellie asks. "I really didn't put it there. I didn't want to type it." I say. "But why? It's the great parts!" Ellie says. "But I've replaced it with great scenes." I say. "But what happened what great!" Ellie insists. "I just don't want to put it there. It's very special. I just...I just want to keep it private." I say. "Oh, okay. If it's private, I respect that." She says. "Ellie, I think I should have brought my laptop. My cousins are wild, I'm worried for Harry." I say. "Tara, I don't like you worrying. I'm so sorry." Ellie says. "Ah. Don't say sorry. Everything will be...everything will be fine." I say. "Just call me if someone or anything bothers you." Ellie says. "Thank you, Ellie." I say and hang up.

"Aren't you going to join them?" Ashton voice was somewhere and he walks beside me. "Are they harassing Harry?" I ask him. "Well, not yet. Ah, your boyfriend's a great guy, I don't see that he'll jerk around." Ash says. "I hope so. He loves me." I say and laughed. "Well, he should just. I talked to him a while ago before you both slept." He said and I remembered it. "What did you say to him? Did you scare him?" I ask and Ashton walks to my right. "No. Not really. Well, I'll just keep it between the both of us." Ash says with a smile. "Is it about me?" "Of course, it is." Ash says. "Ashton, I really feel so down now, just tell me." "No. Now get dressed. The party will start later nine." He says.

I went back inside and Harry was having a conversation with my cousins.

"Ashton says the party will start soon and mum's coming home." I say and they looked at me. "Tara, join us." Shannon says and I nod. "I'll be fine. I'll see you in the room." I say to Harry. "Oh, Tara, what is with you? Join us! You've been our host before. Don't leave!" Allie adds. "I still have to call Ellie. I'll meet you all later." I say and walked upstairs and in my room.

I pull out a little black dress from my closet and lay it on the bed. I pulled out my shoes from my other closet and looked at myself on the mirror.

Why am I acting like this? Is it just because my cousins are thrilled that Harry is here or I'm just hungry? I feel so terrible, sad, lonely, confused, I don't even know how do I really feel right now.

I went on Twitter to see how it is going. I haven't tweeted for months in my fan account because all of my followers are in my personal account where I already have two million followers that I got because of tweeting about my life and Harry's.

"Happy birthday mummy. Love you xx"

I tweeted and lay at my bed. I pull the curtains closed, turned the lights off and get in the covers of my bed with the telly on.

I'm not sick but I feel so down. Maybe because I just need my laptop now or again I'm having this thing that makes me remember of the story in where I don't want to lose Harry.

"Love, are you okay?" Harry comes inside and sits on the bed. "I am." I say and nod as I change the channels in the telly. "Harry, could you kiss me for minutes?" The weirdest question I had ever ask him. "What?" He asks, telling me to repeat what I've said. "No. Uh, nothing. Sorry. Gah." I sighed. "Are you fine?" He says and comes close to me. "I am." I answer. He leans forward and gives me a kiss then we just started snogging again.

After that long kiss, I wrap my arms around him and he does the same to my waist. "Do you have any problem?" He asks me. "No. I'm fine. Absolutely fine." I say and he tightens the hug. "Tara..." "I'm really fine. You change your clothes now. Mum will come home in a few." I say and he nods. "Just tell me anything if you don't feel fine." He says. "Where's the necklace?" He asks. "Right here." I take it out of my shirt and he smiles. "I'll get dressed now." Harry says and gives me a kiss before he gets off.

He went inside the bathroom and I just closed my eyes as I cuddled a pillow and slept.


"Sweetheart." Someone was patting my arm so I turn to my right and it was mum. "Mmm?" I ask her and cuddled the pillow to where she is facing. "Are you sick, love?" She says and I opened my eyes. "I just want sleep." I say. "Come on now. Everybody wants to see you." She says. "Harry is downstairs already." She adds. "Mum." "It's my birthday, Tara. You have to get up and show yourself to my friends." She says and I shake my head. "Tara." Mum calls me. "Tara Harper. Get off your bed now." She says as the lights in my room opened and my sliding door at the balcony opened in where the noise from the party downstairs comes in my room. "Mum!" I say and sat down. "You look pretty." She says and I stand from my bed and looked at the mirror. I just saw a monster in the mirror. "Mum." I looked at her and she looks more younger than me. Gah.

"I'll be waiting for you downstairs. Get dressed and fix your bed." She says and walks out of my room.
