Harry's POV

One Year Later

" Harry!" Damian yelled from the living room. " You have a letter. "

I sighed as I slowly stood up from my bed and walked over to the crib in the corner of the room. As gently as possible, I laid the blonde haired, blue eyed sleeping beauty into her crib. " I love you." I said to the eight month old as I pulled the blanket over her. I stood there for a few minutes, staring at the sleeping little one in awe before walking out of the room and into the hallway.

" Harry! " Damian yelled, again.

" Shhh!" I hissed as I walked into the living room. " I just put 'Ora down for her nap."

" Shit. Sorry mate. I thought Emily was going to watch her today?"

" She couldn't, she got called into work. " I replied as I took a seat beside him on the couch.

" Emily. " Damian sighed. " She has the prettiest eyes that I've ever seen, aside from Ju-."

" Don't say her name." I interrupted him.

" Why not? " Damian smirked.

" Because it hurts me." I admitted.

" Sorry, mate. I didn't think it would still hurt you. I mean it's been a year, don't you think it's time to move on?"

" No." I shook my head. " I can't move on, no matter how hard I try. It's like I'm frozen in time. Y'know I used to laugh when Jade said that it hurt her so badly when I left her, when I dropped her, I didn't believe that it could hurt her so badly, until I felt it for myself. "

" I'm sorry." Damian replied. " Here's your letter and the letter opener." He said as he extended out his left hand. I grabbed both with my right hand and stared down at the letter.

" It's from the U.K." Damian said, but it doesn't say much from who it's from except the initials L.J.P."

" Well it says that it's from Holmes so it has to be someone that I know personally."

" Open it." Damian suggested.

" Alright." I shrugged as I begun to use the letter opener on the envelope. " There's two letters."

" Read them out loud." Damian said. " This is exciting." He laughed.

I removed the first letter and carefully unfolded it.

Dear Harold E. Styles.

Together with their families, Jamie Elisabeth Renee and Liam James Payne would like to invite you to their wedding on the fourteenth of October, two thousand and fifteen.

Service will be held at: Smith's Country Club. Holmes Chapel, Cheshire, United Kingdom.

Dinner and dancing to follow.

I sat the letter down onto my lap and unfolded the second letter.

Harry,

I am inviting you to my wedding for one sole purpose, and that is to show my sister that you still care for her.

Much to my on displeasure, Zayn and Emily are allowed to attend my wedding, simply because Jade asked for them to be. Personally I do not like Zayn, he isn't good enough for my sister and I know if my father was still alive, he would not have approved of him.
