Author's Chapter Notes: Again, no explanation.

"I'm so glad you could come Hayley." Anne smiled at me. "It means so much to Harry that you're here."

"Yeah?" I grinned. "Why?"

"Well, you're one of his best friends." Anne shrugged,giving me a one-armed hug. "And this is a special night for him."

"He getting married?" I joked.

Anne and Gemma laughed along with me.

"Little too young. And if he was to be married it would have to be to a girl perfect to him." Anne smiled at me,watching me a little too closely.

I gave a nervous laugh and let the two Styles girls joke around with each other. I had mymind focused on other things to be completely honest. Two main things really. One; what is going on between Harry and I? Two; what the hell is he planning? I bit mylip while pretending to listen to Gemma and Anna laugh about marriage. All of the sudden we heard a tapping surrounding us. It must have come from the speakers. Everyone quieted down,looking towards the podium. I followed everyone's gaze to a small man standing at the microphone,nervously straightening his tie.

"Good evening everyone!" he said pleasantly,asnervous as he looked. "I am pleased to present the band for this evening,White Eskimo!"

WhiteEskimo? I've never heard of them before. I watched the stage carefully as the curtains rose and the band stepped on. I felt my breath get caught in my throat as Harry and his friends stepped on stage. Harry strode up to the microphone like he had done this a thousand times before.

"Heyveveryone!" Harry smiled to the audienceashisband mates set up. "Glad everyone could come here tonight! I hopevwe won't sound too bad."

That line earned Harryva couple of chuckles and giggles. I was still standing there, mouth wide open. Harry could sing?

"Surprised?" Anna whispered to me.

I nodded slowly. She laughed at my reaction.

"If you can keep a secret,he's been trying to ask you to come ever since he got the job." Anna smiled.

"Yeah? And how long ago was that?" I smiled back as soon as my mouth was able to move.

"About two months ago." Anne shrugged like it was no big deal.

"Really?" I asked,surprised.

She nodded,cheering as thevband started playing. I recognized the song as 'Valerie' by 'Amy Winehouse'.

"Oh my god... I love this song!" I gushed.

"No wonder he chose it..." I heard Gemma mutter.

I doubt I was supposed to hear that... so I choose to ignore it. I was too memorized by Harry's voice.

"Well Sometimes I Go Out,By Myself, And I LookvAcross The Water. And I Think Of All The Things, Of WhatYou're Doing,And in my head I Paint A Picture. Since I've Come Home, Well MyBody's Been A Mess,And I Miss Your ginger Hair, And The Way You Like To Dress. Oh Won'tYou Come On Over, Stop Making A Fool Out Of Me,WhyDon't You Come On Over,Valerie." Harry sang.

His voice was so... so beautiful. I had no idea Harry could sing. I had no idea he had a band! How could he keep a secret like that? It felt like no time when Harry sang the last note and smiled happily at the audience as the band slowly finished. Everyone cheered and clapped,especially Anne,Gemma and I. Harry glanced over at me and his family. He must have seen the shocked look on my face because he glanced away from me,a smirk on his faceand his cheeks tinting pink.
