You can run, but you can't hide

Chapter 80- ALMOST THE END!

A/N-- Yes I skipped into the future. No I wont return back to tha past. Not feeling generous <3

*10 Years later* --Caitlin’s 27, Harry’s 28, Louis’ 30

--2:30am--

“Babe, Elizabeth’s crying” Harry played with my hair as he woke me up. All I could hear was the sound of my baby crying. “Want me to get it this time?” He kissed my head.

“I’ll come” I stood up as Harry and I walked into Elizabeth’s room. It was all pink with her name written on the wall. There was a banner from her birthday last week which said ‘Happy 2nd Birthday’.

“Hey Darling... shhhh” Harry picked her up gently. I grabbed onto Harry’s arm resting my head on his shoulder.

“What’s a matter honey? If daddy reads you a story will you go back to sleep?” Harry kissed her head.

“myes” She sniffed as Harry put her in her bed pulling out his diary from her bedside table sitting on the chair besides her bed. I stood behind him massaging his shoulders.

“Day 1: One Direction concert Australia, World Tour, You can run but you can’t hide.

I walked out on that stage. Usually I felt nervous but today I felt perfect because I knew that nothing could bring me down. My girl was performing as our backup singer and that meant the world to me. Her kisses made me feel like I was falling in love over and over again; her hugs made me feel safe in her arms and hear laugh brought tears to my eyes because I loved her. And I wouldn’t change that for anything...” Harry read to Elizabeth.

“Mumma” She sucked her thumb as I kissed her to bed. She fell to a peaceful sleep as Harry and I walked back to bed.

“You’re such an amazing dad” I kissed him as we lay back down.

“You’re a beautiful mother. Elizabeth whose 2 and Edward whose only 2 months and look at you. You’re still hot” He kissed me as I fell asleep.

*Dream*

Louis stood at the door. I heard a murmur that turned into a voice. It sung...

“Baby you light up my world like nobody else, the way that you flip your hair gets me over whelmed, the way you smile at the ground makes it hard to tell, you don’t know, at all. That’s what makes you beautiful...”

Louis swung open the door, and there he was. He stood there with his hair perfectly sitting at the side, hands in his pockets, his eyes looking into mine as I rushed over to hug him way too quickly.

“Caitlin, I love you so much beautiful” He whispered in my ear with his arms wrapped around me.

“Harry...” I whispered with tears building up in my eyes.

“Shh...” He let go of me and gently kissed my forehead. At this point Eleanor had walked in the room and already Mr. Smooth had his arms wrapped around her from behind, them both staring at us with big smiles on their faces.

*Reality*

I’m a mother of two children. I have a wonderful husband and a lovely home. Harry and I live in Sydney in a house in Watsons Bay. Our view is of the harbour which is amazing. It’s the house I’ve always dreamed of.

 One Direction is now just a memory. They performed together for 8 years after their last scare of breaking up. Now it’s not so regular with them.

 Niall lives in Cronulla with Lauren. They have a beautiful daughter named Willow. She has Lauren’s brunette hair and Niall’s eyes. She just turned 1. I’ve never seen them so happy before. Elizabeth and Willow are good friends which is the cutest thing in the world.

 Louis and Eleanor travel the world together. It’s beautiful. They say that when things get permanent they’ll live in Paris under the lights, city of love. He’s such a romantic and she’s so lovely. I’m so glad their together. I occasionally get pictures sent to me but I always get me 11:00am call from Louis. Every day.

Zayn and Zara however are models. They’re internationally famous as they live in America together.  I haven’t seen their apartment but apparently it’s beautiful (Harry visits sometimes). They live with a view of the water and are total romantics.

As for Liam’s life, it’s been complicated. In Australia he tried to drag me into a pub. I didn’t want to go but he begged me. We went in together and he got totally wasted. I got angry at him because he was hitting on me so I ran out across the road as I saw him follow.

“BABE” I remembered him scream holding a bear from across the road.

“Stay there. Leave me alone” I screamed back walking away.

“Wait” He called running across the now busy main road. He didn’t look before he crossed and a car beeped his horn so loudly. The last thing I remember was the look on Liam’s face before he got hit.

Later on at the hospital, Danielle and Sarah showed up. Liam apologized to the both of them but Danielle didn’t accept his apology. Luckily Sarah did. Liam never fully recovered emotionally or physically. He can’t keep still anymore. His injuries were pretty severe. Getting hit by a car wasn’t on his bucket list. He lives with Sarah in England now with Sarah pregnant with a baby boy.

Now that One Direction don’t really perform together anymore, Niall, Harry and I sing for performances sometimes. Of course all the boys still keep in touch and they do performances in different countries once every 2 years. When we don’t perform, I work at Rose Bay Performing and Creative Arts Primary School. Our lives have been amazing and Harry and I keep diaries for everyday of our lives. He says we can share our adventures with our children and our children’s children. I love my life.

I haven’t heard from Blake in such a long time. I missed him so much. I asked Jake (Blake’s best friend) what had happened and why Blake never spoke to me anymore. He just said “If you don’t want the answer, don’t ask the question”. It worried me deeply. I couldn’t just leave Blake not knowing where he was or what he was doing with his life, but I trusted him. I visited his house once to find he doesn’t live there anymore. I have absolutely no way of contacting him anymore. Disconnected his mobile and facebook. He disappeared from my life forever.

Mum and Dad live near me now which is annoying because they visit every 5 minutes. Aunty Jo and all the family in England get a phone call from me every day and get a visit every holiday. Nana passed away when I was 25. She lived up to 98 which is amazing but I miss her every day. I still carry around the photo book of me and her everywhere I go. Usually I keep it on my side table in the lounge room but I like having her (well her photos) with me.

I sat on the porch out the front of our house. I have a chair and Harry has a chair. Every afternoon we’d have a cup of tea and look out to the harbour. Usually watching the kids play out the front yard. Harry and I talked and laughed and loved every minute.

Our lives have been amazing...
