************ HARRYS POV ***************

my mind went numb at her words. This had to be kind of some sick joke. I was cursing Caroline endlessly in my brain. This was all her fault. Finally Livi and I had laid our feeligns out on the table, finally i saw how she really felt about me. I was looking forward to this moment since i realized how much she meant to me and just like that we were done. I looked at Livi; she was pale and looked just as distraught as i felt. I stepped towards her taking her hands in mine and the rapping her into a hug. She buried her head into my chest and mumbled into my shirt.

" what are we gunna do now?" she said ehr voice muffled by my shirt

" we will figure something out. I dont know what but we will." I said stoking her hair " What if you just stay here? who cares about your job!"

" I care about my job harry!" Livi said indignantlylooking up at me

" well what about me? dont you care about me?" I said starring down into her green eyes but feeling a little out of place. I didnt matter as much as her job?

"Of course I do" she said sighing " but my job is my only means of money. If i lose it now after all the work I did to get here. I will have wasted a year and a half of my life

" I know that. Livi this may sound selfish but i cant let you go. Not now." I said tightening my grip around her waist.

she stood up on her tippy toes and pecked me softly on the lips

" I cant let you go either." I small smile danced across her mouth and in that moment I knew everything I felt for her she felt equally for me.

" Then if two people care about eachother they shouldnt be forced apart. Ill talk to Paul, he always knows what to do. And if that doesnt work I will bloody call your boss up myself and convince him to let you stay!" I said with unintentional loudness and intensity

Livi giggled reaching up to play with my paper airplane charm hanging from my neck. I held her against me never wanting to let go.

" From this moment on, we are in it together." I said in a low voice

" from this moment on." she repeated nodding

****************

Paul was on the phone for almost an hour before he came back in the living room area of my hotel where Livi and I now sat expectantly. He stood in front of us, his large arms crossed in front of him. He gazed at us with a stern expectant look.

" Ok. I talked to Mr Cratcher" he said pausing which caused both Livi and I to tense up

"and?" I said not able to stand the suspense

" He seems to think Livi is deserving of one more chance." I sighed outwardly not minding if Paul noticed the relief I felt. I literally felt as though a giant boulder was lifted off my shoulders. I turned and hugged a grinning Livi.

" Thank you Paul!!!!" she said giddily

" yes. But their are conditions." Paul looked at the both of us, his stare demanding our attention " you guys have to come out with some kid of statement. I dont know if you want to tell the truth about Caroline or if you want to make something up; thats your decision. You also have to be seen out together looking happier than ever. The best way to do that Harry would be to take Livi with you when you visit Holmes Chapel. Introduce her to your family, take her out, talk about her more on interviews. That way people will know you are completely secure in your relationship; well your fake one anyway."

I was already planning on taking Livi with me to visit the family but until now I felt guilty introducing her to them as my girlfriend. But now that Livi and I truly were together (even if nobody else knew) it would feel completely natural to have her around them. I looked at Livi who was nodding her head listening intently to Pauls every word.

she looked at me after he was finished.

"are you sure your ready for me to meet your family?" she said with a small voice

" completely." I said with conviction

she smiled at me then looked at Paul

" If hes ready I am. I wont let you down I promise"
