I'm Sorry.

Chapter 21

I woke up to the light piercing in through the blinds. I did a dodgy stretch then jumped out of bed and walked over to the wardrobe to chose today's outfit. Just as I was about to pull out some clothes my phone started to ring so I darted across my bed and picked it up. It was my mum.

" Hey mum, how's Wales?" I asked.

" Hey honey it's great and your Aunty Elizabeth has a new dog called Marmaduke, named after that film about a dog called Maraduke. Your know what I'm talking about, right?" She said sounding confused.

" Yes, I know what your talking about. Why did you call me this time?" I said with a sigh.

" Don't get all stressy with me young lady!" She bellowed down the phone.

" Okay, okay! Why O' mother did you request the presence of my voice this morning?" I said hoping to sound more enthusiastic.

" You can stop the sarcasm too! I was only checking to see if you were okay." She said.

" I'm not dead if that's what you mean. I've got to go now anyway." I called.

" What are you doing today with Elyeese?" Mum asked.

" Urm...I don't know. I've got to go! Bye!" I lied quickly ending the call.

I looked at the time on my phone. 10:37! I slept in a little, well we did get in late last night. I threw my phone on the bed and walked out of the room and down the stairs. I walked into the hallway and into the kitchen where I saw the back of a man and a woman with Harry sitting at the 'breakfast bar'. They turned round quickly and I knew that it was Anne and Des, Harry's parents. I opened my mouth a little and remembered that I was still wearing my pyjamas and started to walk back towards the stairs.

" Babe, come back." Harry called. I stopped and put a smile on my face and turned back round to him and his parents.

" I'm sorry, how rude of me. I just didn't think it was adequate to wear my pyjamas at this moment in time." I said smiling at Anne and Des then back at Harry.

" Nonsense my love, it's fine, I've been dying to meet you." Anne said gesturing for me to come over. I walked over to her and Des and gave them both a handshake and introduced myself properly. Harry walked over to me and hugged me from behind and whispered in my ear to relax.

" We have been dying to meet the famous Anna who seems to have Harry under a spell!" Des said with his arms out.

I don't know why but I took what he said very seriously, probably because they were Harry's parents and I felt I was being judged on wether I'm good enough for him.

" Oh...Urm. I'm not a witch." I said shaking my head with a wonky smile. I was being serious in my response. Anne and Des looked at each other then laughed.

" I'm not calling you a witch love." Des said laughing. Even Harry was chuckling.

" I think she's a little scared. She wants to make a good impression I'm sure. At least she's not a witch." Harry said cracking up at the end. I smiled and sighed I'm such a fruit loop.

" Sorry I gave way to pressure. How silly of me for not asking, how are you?" I said biting my lip.

" We're fine darling and you?" Anne asked me.

" Fine, a little startled at your arrival. I didn't know you were coming but that doesn't matter." I said playing with my hands, Anne and Des just smiled.

They seemed really lovely, more than lovely. We had a small conversation before Harry gave me a plate with some toast on it. I hadn't had my breakfast and looking at the time it was nearly lunch. I slowly nibbled at the toast, I wanted to show Anne and Des how mannered I am, when in reality if it was me on my own I would just pile it in my mouth.

Anne stood up to go to the toilet, she was wearing this beautiful cardigan that was knitted wool. I smiled as she gracefully walked out of the kitchen. My eyes then met Harry's and he winked at me then his phone started to ring. He answered the call and went outside to continue talking which left me alone with Des.

" He's a wonderful person you know. He always puts others before him and is always nice to people even if they are horrible to him. I may not be his biological father but I am proud to call him my step son." Des said looking out the window to Harry pacing around the patio.

" I would say I know how proud you are of him but I can only tell you that from a fans point of view." I said joining him in looking towards Harry.

" Please, please don't break his heart. It's been broken before and it hurts me and his mum, to see our boy being messed around and caught up in a world that's moving to fast for him." Des said turning to me and looking me deep in the eye.

I can't promise him anything. What if it's Harry who goes off me? What if Harry breaks my heart? What about me being swept into Harry's fast moving world? I can understand their pain as Harry means everything to me aswell. I know what he meant when he said 'messed around'. He meant being used, taken advantage of just literally being messed around. I hope I hadn't messed him around at all. I looked back to Harry then back at Des and said:

" I won't break his heart."

Des smiled and gave me a hug. Anne walked back in and asked where Harry was, so I pointed outside and she nodded. The three of us sat down and had a cup of tea and a nice conversation about Harry. I kept looking over to him outside and I knew that he is a keeper.

What a lucky girl I am.
