"In a race between danger and indecision, the difference between life and death comes down to confidence. Faith in our abilities, certainty in ourselves and the trust we put in others."
After I had refreshed up in the bathroom I went downstairs to make the pair of us breakfast whilst he cleaned up. We were in a rush, he needed to get to work and Zayn was coming in less than half an hour.
That didn't stop us though, neither of us cared. We tried to quickly have our breakfast and get ready for our day ahead so we could savour the last twenty minutes in each other's embrace.
"As much as I would love to be here and kiss you, I really should head home and get ready for work." My body started aching at the loss of contact, it was already missing his hands all over it.
"Okay." I simply nodded and sighed, making our way to the front door. He quickly put his shoes on and gave me one last small kiss before he headed towards the manor.
"Harry?" I called out before he was out of my sight.
"Stay over tonight and bring some clothes so you're not rushing the next morning." A smile appeared on his face and he nodded his head before he left and right on cue, Zayn's car pulled through and into my driveway.
"Morning sunshine." His voice was very perky, someone was in a great mood.
"Was that the Harry styles running back home so early in the morning?" I was so close to not having to hear his lectures but clearly it was inevitable.
"Just get in quickly and I'll explain everything." Panic came over my body and I wasn't sure why. Something told me Anne was watching me like a hawk, their manor was huge. There must've been one bedroom that has a good view of my little house.
"You slept with him didn't you?" Disappointment evident in his voice, thanks for making me feel bad.
"What? No! And even if I did, I wouldn't have a choice. I can't be in a relationship with him and not get intimate. He will get suspicious." I hissed back, clenching my hands into a fist.
Calm down Amelia.
"What did you just say? Relationship? So you're together now." He wasn't liking where this was going.
"Yes he asked me to be his girlfriend, I said yes. I need him to fall in love with me so I always have a reason to return to styles manor." I explained for the 100th time and grabbed my little box from its hidden place.
I picked up the picture with my target and handed a red pen to Zayn.
"Would you like to do the honours, or would you rather spend the afternoon pissing me off?"
He simply grunted at my attitude and accepted the pen.
"It would be my honour Mels." And with that, James face had a red cross marked on his face. We both gave each other a satisfactory smile.
"I would've not been able to do it without you Zayn, you know that right? Thank you."
"Mels, you don't need to thank me. I will do anything for Katherine."
"This isn't my journey, it's our journey. I read her letters and she kept mentioning her little brother so thank you for being there for her when I couldn't." He gave me a reassuring smile before changing the subject, trying to ease the sadness that engulfed the both of us.
"So Mels, ready for take down 2?" The smirk on his face and cunning tone had me ready to bring my mothers name to justice one more time.
"More than ever Zayn. They're exactly how she described them and nothing has changed. Erickson Weld contacted Desmond as soon as he read the tabloid of me and Harry."
