Harry was in such a state of shock, that I had to drive us home. We had gotten the next appointment date, a little over a month from now, and not really feeling up to going to get food, I drove straight home. When I walked into my home the first thing that I saw was the blond tipped blizzard, accordingly named Kat, my mother with Hally right next to her.
"Umm... Why aren't you on tour?" I asked slowly, painfully waiting her response.
"Well I found out my little girl is having a baby with a British fellow who she claimed to hate so much!" She jumped off the couch and ran over to harry and I, engulfing us into a hug. I don't think I can remember the last time she has actually given me a real hug. I was in such a state of shock that I hugged back and I think Harry did too. "Welcome to the family Harry!" She smiled widely, a real smile, that I haven't seen in ages. Was she genuinely happy? She looked at me and then added, "I know. I'm sorry for neglecting you all these years. But when I found out about this," She made a big hand motion to my stomach and Harry, "I realized that my baby was growing up and so I needed to also," Hally nodded her head slowly to show that my mom was being serious.
"Okay, I get where you're coming from," I said in a monotone and crossed my arms, "But why'd you come back?"
"Because I don't know if I can trust a boy like that!" She motioned to the silent Harry, "To take care of my daughter! I don't even know if he loves you! I don't know anything! You two have been in a REAL relationship for a little over month!" I was infuriated and Harry finally jerked to attention.
"Excuse me!? You left Alli, YOUR daughter, while you went on tour, with me! It was all just a publicity stunt to save your arse! Unlike you, I love her and not because of 'publicity' okay?" Dayum, she really struck a nerve with Harry. I began to fade into the background as the fighting proceeded.
"Excuse me for wanting what's best for her!"
"What's best?! You barely even talk to her!" He glared at her with daggers and she returned them. I looked around in search of Hally, but she had left the room. I wanted to go in search of her, but I was far too scared to leave my position on the couch. The fight was heating up quickly.
"I have a job! I have to pay for our lifestyle!"
"Yeah, and you also sleep around with every young male in Hollywood," Whoa, Harry, you're getting a little close to the edge of your rope... Her face filled red with anger and she proceeded.
"You do the exact same thing. Remember Caroline? Hm? You didn't even love her and you probably don't even love Alice!" why was my mom even brining her friend, Caroline Flack into this argument? Yeah sure, Harry and she had dated for a while. But that was over before it even started, "You're just staying around because you made a mistake that you can't EVER UNDO. She was meant for great things with her life and then you came into the picture and ruined it!" She stopped and I broke into tears. Harry saw me from his place in the middle of the room and was soon right next to me, wrapping his arms around me. I buried my face into his chest and cried about pure nothingness. I just didn't want them to be fighting; I didn't want her making those accusations to him.
"D-do you love me?" I stuttered between sobs and looked up at him.
"Of course I do, love. Why would you ask something like that?"
"She said that you didn't..." I tried to contain the second batch of tears but those escaped just like the first. He began to rub his hand in small, comforting circles on my back and shh'ed me.
"Don't believe a word that she says. You know I love you more than anything," I looked up at him and slightly smiled.
"Really?"
