I didn’t do much the next couple days. I kind of felt empty without Harry being by my side. That was not good. Being attached like this. I woke up around 11:30, got in the shower and got ready. Than there was a knock at the door.
“Come in.”
In walked Eleanor.
“Get packing. I have a surprise for you!” I packed my things and got in the car with Eleanor. We pulled up at a airport.
“El, what are we doing here?!”
“Shh, it’s a surprise.” She guided me to the plane. A couple fans stopped us and asked us for pictures. Not that many though since we weren’t with the boys. Kristen, Joyce and Dani were all already on the plane. They had there ipods out listening to music with pillows and blankets. I think it’s going to be a long plane trip. I wasn’t going to ask any more questions because no one was answering me anyway. I was kind of nervous. But some how I felt like I was getting to see Harry, so I was excited. The plane started lifting off, and I doze off. I woke up a few hours later at a air port I knew fairly well. Tears started forming in my eyes. But I still didn’t know what was happening. So I just waited before I cried.
We got in a limo and started driving around. Than it happened. We passed Chichi’s old house. I wasn’t holding these tears back anymore. I looked at everyone and no one knew why I was crying. Kristen and Joyce never been here before, so they wouldn’t know. Danielle and Eleanor have been here, but we just met. I knew harry was probably busy, but even the sound of his voicemail would make me feel better.
“Hello? Tyra’s is everything okay?”
“No Harry. No, it’s not. We just drove passed chichi’s house. It’s still so beautiful. I want to go back. Can we go look around in it, when we get back together?”
“yeah. If you really feel like you can. Of course.” He said he had to go, and said I love you. He sent little kissy noises through the phone, I started giggling. He always knew how to cheer me up.
We pulled up to a deli that I had never been to before. They must’ve just built it, because everyone knew everything in this town. Danielle took out her phone and called Liam.
“Yeah we’re almost there. Everything ready?”
“Yup, but I got to go. Sound check really quick.” And their phone call ended. Everyone was acting very strange. And it was bothering me. We left the deli, and I knew where I was now. I was only 5 minutes away from where Harry auditioned for the x-factor. What were we doing here?
We pulled up and we all got out of the car. I noticed a few familiar things but I haven’t been here in awhile. We walked inside and it was dark. The music started playing and out came the boys. I knew the song from the first note. I think everyone did. It was one thing. I walked down the isle, and sat in the front row. When the chorus started my mom and Kitty walked out. They were doing crazy dance moves. Than Gemma and Anne walked out and the tears started streaming down my face. My old boss walked out, and waved. I missed all these people like crazy. Than a man walked out. I didn’t recognize him, and I felt bad. After the song was over I walked over to give everyone their hugs. When I was hugging harry the man walked over to me.
“Hey. Can I talk to you for a second?”
“Yeah. But he’s staying.” I was really frightened of strangers ever since what happened with Ryan, and Harry made me feel protected so I needed him with me.
“Okay. I just wanted to say, I’m sorry for everything I ever did to you. I should’ve never did what I did and-”
“I’m sorry, I just don’t know who you are?” Harry started squeezing my hand. And I turned around to look at him. He was looking at the guy standing in front of me.
“I’m…uhm, Im your father…”
Was I really hearing these words. Was this really happening? We sat down and talked for a bit and he was actually pretty cool. I just haven’t seen him in 14 years..
Before the party ended, Harry grabbed 2 microphones and stood up on stage.
“The real reason we had this party. Was so Tyra could come back home. And so she could do what she loved doing best. Sing to me Tyra?”
“No. harry I can’t.”
“Tyra. You’re voice is beautiful. You need to sing for me. I love you, and I love your voice. Please?”
“Okay. But I get to pick the song.”
I picked a song I knew would mean a lot to everyone. Even though it was going to make me cry. I needed to sing it.
“My life is brilliant. My love is pure. I saw an angel. Of that I'm sure. She smiled at me on the subway. She was with another man. But I won't lose no sleep on that, 'Cause I've got a plan.” Harry sang the next verse.
“You're beautiful. You're beautiful. You're beautiful, it's true. I saw your face in a crowded place, And I don't know what to do, 'Cause I'll never be with you.”
When he said those words. I wanted to run off the stage. I wanted to go back to when Chichi was still here. To that day next to the pond in her backyard and just take the cancer away from her. But I couldn’t. I needed to finish the song. Not just for me, but for harry, my mom, kitty, and Chichi.
When the party was over, I was honestly happy Harry did this for me. We went to Chichi’s house. And sat on that same bench. He held my hand while I cried and sang kiss me by ed sheeran. I loved this kid so much. My boyfriend, My first love, and My best friend. Life was perfect.
