So here's the next chapter, I hope you'll enjoy  it as much as I had writing it. 

"Thanks, Izzy, it's beautiful." Liv grinned through the mirror at Izzy standing behind her. It felt odd to have the weight of a tiara in her head again. She hadn't expected to wear one so soon after her wedding, but here she was. Wearing the pearl fringe tiara from the vault in the belly of Buckingham Palace.

"You're welcome, do you need any help with the dress?" Izzy asked, her hands resting on her shoulders as she looked at her dress hanging at the front of the cabinet.

"do you mind?" Liv asked her, looking at her friend in the mirror. "Merida?" Harry's voice asked as he stuck his head around the corner of the divide between their two wardrobes.

He appeared in his tux and medals on the left side of his chest. "If it were up to me, you'd come like that," Harry stated with a smirk as she rose up from her chair in her dressing gown.

"Why doesn't that surprise me?" Liv quipped, looking back at him over her shoulder as she let her dressing gown drop to the ground. She stood in her strapless bra and knickers in front of him as Izzy had disappeared from the wardrobe.

"Oh, now it's even better." Harry smiled hungrily at her as he wrapped his hands around her waist and kissing the side of her neck. "Don't be such a guy," she told him, wiggling her hips into him. "I'm a guy." he snickered in the crook of her neck as he rubbed his hands on her stomach.

"You don't look so bad yourself though," she noted, turning around in his arms so she could wrap her own one's around his neck. "You look very handsome," she told him, playing with the hairs on the back of his neck.

"Not as good as you will look," Harry told her as she rolled her eyes and turned back around to take her dress from the hangar. "This suits you better," he noted, running the tip of his finger down her spine. "Yes, I'll go to my first state dinner dressed in my knickers and bra. that's a way to get kicked from the family," she told him with a snort as she stepped into her gown and pulled it up to her shoulders.

His response was to throw his head back and laugh. "No Merida, the tiara," he noted, tapping the side of the tiara she wore with a smile on his face as his hand lowered to cup her cheek. "You've taken to the water like a fish. I couldn't be more proud of you," he told her, dropping his head against hers as she gave him a sheepish smile.

"That's because you are at my side," Liv claimed, stating it as it was. Liv was convinced that if he weren't there with his gentle and steady guidance and encouraging words she wouldn't be as good. The thing was he wasn't assured of that. He just put it on her and her talent of adapting to any situation.

"Yea right." he snorted, kissing her lips as she cupped his face in her hands, rubbing her thumbs back and forth against his cheek. "I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you." she convinced him with a peck on her lips, which turned more heated by the second. trying to catch her breath, her bum against the lower cabinet in her part of the wardrobe.

"I love you Merida, more than you'll ever know," he told her, resting her head against his both of them panting. he leaned in to kiss her lips again, but they got interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Stop making out in there you have a dinner to go to. Make babies some other time." Liz's voice resonated through the door as Liv dropped her head against Harry's.

"One day I'm going to get her back," Liv whispered in a threat. "I'll be the first to help you," Harry told her.

"But she's right, we do need to get a move on," Liv noted, patting his cheek. "Will you help me?" Liv asked as she turned her back to him so he could pull up the zipper. She felt his knuckles graze her back as he pulled up the zipper.
