Yours

[Rebecca's POV]


I giggled. "Harry, I thought I was the one to be nervous here."
"You're about to meet my mum though." He said running his fingers through his hair. "You're the girlfriend she's suppose to approve of."
I put my hand on his shoulder. "Harry, your mom knows about us."
He looked at me. "She does?"
I nodded. "Yeah, Simon told our families everything. I thought you knew this. Where were you?"
"Probably in my own head thinking about," he looked at me. "..things."
I eyed him. "Right."
He leaned back in the chair. "You still have to make a good impression."
"Don't you trust me?" I asked.
"Yeah, but my mum... she's... tough." He said.
"I can handle her." I smiled. "I'm a people person."
He rolled his head towards me giving me the 'Shut up' look. I turned my head, and sank down into the airport chair. He's been this way all day. We made it to New York yesterday. The boys have rehearsals tonight, the families are coming in, and tomorrow is the show, so you can say it's a bit hectic.
"FLIGHT 26 FROM LONDON HAS ARRIVED."
Harry's head popped up. "She's here."
I shook my head and stood up. "What are you doing?"
I ignored him and started walking towards the terminal. "Rebecca."
I ignored him. I walked all the way to where I could see people come out. "Rebecca, what are you doing?" he asked catching my shoulder and turning me around.
I took his hand off my shoulder and said. "Impressing."
He knitted his eyebrows. "Re--" I cut him off my my finger going to his lips.
"Stop." I said and turned around looking for his mom. I've seen her a couple of times in Harry's apartment. He has pictures around with her in them. He's such a mama's boy.
His arms snaked around my waist from behind and his lips went to my ear. "Impress how exactly?"
I giggled patting his arm that was on my stomach. "Don't worry sweetie, i've got this covered."
He sighed frustratedly. "Honey," he stated playing along. "what is that--" I cut him off by removing his arms and yelling. "ANNE! GEMMA!" I waved my arm in the air.
Gemma noticed me first and pulled her mom towards us. Harry became really happy seeing his mom just a few feet away.
"Rebecca, hey." Gemma said pulling me into a hug.
"How have you been, Gemma?" I asked.
"Good, how about you?" she asked pulling away.
"Just fine, thanks." I smiled and looked towards Anne.
"Mum," Harry smiled. "this is Rebecca."
"Nice to meet you, Rebecca." Anne smiled.
"Nice to meet you too, Mrs. Cox." I smiled accepting her hug.
I pulled away just as Harry and Gemma were pulling away from their hug. Harry went around me going to his mom to hug, and kiss her cheek. "I've missed you, baby." Anne cooed in his shoulder.
I smiled. This is so sweet.
"I've missed you too, mum." He breathed in happily.
We all walked too baggage claim and got their luggage. "Let me." I said grabbing Anne's suitcase.
"Well, Harry. Simon definitely picked a polite one." Anne smiled. I smiled back at her and they went to turn around. I went beside Harry and hip bumped him giving him the 'I told you so' look. He rolled his eyes and wrapped his arm around his mom's shoulder and mine.
We walked out of the airport with little paparazzi than I expected. We got into a cab and went straight to the hotel. Get this, since there is only three seats in the back of a cab guess who had to sit on Harry's lap? me. Wooo, but then again I wasn't complaining. Lizzy is with the other boys if you were wondering. Harry was talking to Anne for the entire ride catching up on things back in Holmes Chapel. Harry really does miss it there from what i've heard.
We arrived at the hotel and I got out as Harry's paid the man. We got Gemma, and Anne's luggage from the back and headed towards the hotel lobby. Girls were screaming and things like that. We got in and headed towards Anne and Gemma's shared room. We each had to share a room with someone. Harry, and Niall. Lizzy, and I. Liam, and Danielle. Zayn, and Perrie. Louis, and Eleanor. Maura, Niall's dad, and Greg. Zayn's mom Patricia, and his sisters. Karen, and Liam's sisters. Jay, and Louis' sisters. Anne, and Gemma. Lou, and Lux. The only one who had their own room was Paul. Lucky son-of-a-gun.
"Is this it?" Gemma asked.
"Yup, right next to Harry's." I said walking behind her.
Harry made it to the room and unlocked it letting all us women in first. Anne and Gemma got in and claimed their beds. I placed Anne's suitcase on her bed, and Harry placed Gemma's on her bed.
"Thank you dear." Anne said.
"Your welcome." I said going over by Harry.
"Once everyone is here, we're going out to dinner. Rebecca and I will be headed to rehearsals now." Harry said leading me out of the room by my hand.
Before I exited, I saw Anne look at our intertwined hands and then ask Gemma something. That was all I saw before Harry shut the door and said. "You were right, I shouldn't have been that worried."
I smiled in satisfaction and walked to the elevators. "Woman are always right."
Harry laughed. "Yeah, right."
I nodded. "Yup, and every woman can agree with me on it."
He rolled his eyes playfully as we got into the elevator. "Well, I know something I know that I am right about."
"And what would that be?" I asked as the doors closed.
Harry pushed me back to the elevator wall. "That kissed we shared the other night, you want it to happen again."
"Is that so?" I asked looking up.
"Yes." He licked his lips looking down at my lips then to my eyes.
"Humm.." I hummed.
dinning.
Harry shut his eyes at the sound of the doors about to open. I smiled. "Guess not." I said pushing him off me as someone walked in.
Harry stood next to me and started to play with my fingers. The guy next to us looked at us then looked away. The doors opened once more for the lobby. We let the guy out first then we went out. Harry intertwined our hands again. We walked out of the hotel for the third time today, and smiled at fans.
This time Harry stopped and did a few autographs and pictures as I called a cab. Before dinner, Zayn's picking up his family from the airport. They should be the last ones. Everyone else is here. In fact, Eleanor, Perrie, and Danielle are already at the venue with the other boys. The cab came up and I called for Harry. He took one last photo and told the girls bye. He then walked to me getting in.
We rode to the venue not talking only because our cab driver was doing the talking. He would not shut up. Not be rude or anything, but don't people need to breath from time to time? well not this guy. He was funny though; that was a bright side.
We got to the venue and got out. We quickly went in since we were late. Harry went backstage as I went into the audience to find the girls. I was walking down the aisle as I see Lizzy going in and out through seats and Perrie trying to catch her.
"Lizzzzzzzzzy...." Perrie whined. "Give me my hair piece back."
I shook my head. I ran to where Lizzy was and grabbed her from behind. She squealed and then laughed realizing it was just me. I held her and walked to Perrie. "Now," facing her towards Perrie. "give Perrie her head piece back, and say sorry."
Lizzy pouted, but gave it back. "Sorry Perrie."
Perrie smiled and patted Lizzy on the head. "It's alright, little one."
I put Lizzy down right when Harry and the boys got on stage to start sound check. I hugged Perrie and she brought me to where the others were. I hugged Eleanor and Danielle and we all took a seat front row looking at the boys.
The boys sang their set list through. They sang as if they were really doing the concert and they were everywhere. Like, I don't even know what they were doing, but they were funny.
"Okay, we're going to sing a cover now. Teenage Dirtbag." Louis said then grinned at Eleanor.
Eleanor, Perrie, and Danielle cheered. "What's teenage dirtbag?" I asked.
All three of them turned their heads and their mouths dropped. "You've never heard this song?" Eleanor asked.
I shook my head no. "Well," she grinned."you're in for quite a treat. It's an amazing song."
"Alright then." I said getting comfortable as Harry started the song.
"Her name is Noelle, I have a dream about her, She rings my bell, I got gym class in half an hour. Oh, how she rocks, In Keds and tube socks, But she doesn't know who I aammm, And she doesn't give a damn about me..."
I was hooked.

[Harry's POV]
"I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby, Yeah, I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby, Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me.." Rebecca sang in hushed tones as she aimlessly played with my Cologne, and hair stuff on the dresser in front of her.
She's been singing that all day since we've played it. I chuckled and shook my head. I pulled my blazer on inhaling air. I was quite nervous about this dinner. I don't even know why either. Maybe it's because my mother has hated every single girlfriend I had, fake or not. Rebecca helped me pick out something to wear because I was lost in my own mind over thinking. All I want is my mum to like Rebecca because.... well, I just do.
She turned around and leaned against the dresser. She was wearing this dress & these shoes. She looked really nice. See, the hotel has a restaurant in it, and so Paul rented it out for us. We thought it'd be nice to get semi dressed up and spend a nice evening before the show catching up with all the families.
"Ready?" She asked.
I nodded fixing my hair again in the mirror. I heard her laugh; I looked at her. "Don't be so stressed about this, what's the difference if she does and doesn't like me? we're kinda stuck together for a year no matter what see thinks of me."
"I know, but," I sighed dropping my blazer from my hands."it's different. I just really want her to like you."
She smiled. "That's sweet and all, but I think it's okay to say she does."
I shook my head. "You don't know that."
She laughed again. "Okay, whatever."
She got up from the dresser and started walking towards my door. "Where are you going?"
"To this dinner that we set up. Don't want to be late." She smirked.
I looked down at my watch and it was already six. I quickly followed her out. We met my mum and sister in the hallway. We all walked down to the restaurant meeting Jay, Lottie, Fizzy, Daisy, and Phoebe, Louis, and Eleanor just before we went in.
Once we all arrived, we sat with our families at separate tables. There were plenty. My mum, Gemma, Lizzy, and Rebecca, and I all sat together at one.
"So, how old are you?" My mum asked Lizzy who was sitting right beside her.
"Six." She smiled.
"Your mum let you bring a six year old on tour with you?" My mum asked Rebecca.
I closed my eyes. I knew she doesn't approve of it. I'm sure she thinks Lizzy is unsafe, and to young.
"Yes ma'am. Since i'm eighteen, my mom knows i'm responsible enough to take care of my little sister." Rebecca smiled. "Plus, Lizzy missed me and I missed her." she turned to me. "Harry here is the one who asked if it was alright if she could come with us."
My mum turned to me. "Is that right, Harry?"
I nodded slowly. "Yeah."
"How sweet." She smiled and turned back to Lizzy.
That's it? no 'huh' and a disapproving look, or no 'well I think she's a bit young.' then a smile. Nothing..
"Harry, are you excited about tomorrow?" Gemma asked sitting up and looking at me with a genuine smile.
I smiled. "I am beyond excited. The lad's and I have wanted this since the start and now we're performing here."
"I'm so proud of you, baby." My mum cooed looking at me like she just wanted to jump across the table and kill me with kisses.
"Thanks mum." I smiled.
The waiter took our orders from everyone, and I mean everyone. If everyone get's what they wanted, i'd be surprised.
"How's Liam, Gemma?" I asked getting protective brother like.
"He's good." She said placing down her drink.
"He treating you good?" I asked.
Rebecca stiffed a giggle. "Just fine."
I turned to Rebecca. "What?"
She shook her head trying not to laugh. "Nothing, it's just cute how you got all protective brother in about two seconds."
"Well, I need to be." I said.
Gemma rolled her eyes. "He's always been that way."
"It's a good quality. My brother is like that too." Rebecca said.
"You have a brother?" My mum asked.
"Yes ma'am. He's 24, just turned, and married." Rebecca said.
"Young isn't he?" She asked.
"I mean, I guess. They've been together through high-school, so it was bound to happen. He just got married in July, so he's a newly wed." She said looking at my mum not nervous at all. She seemed comfortable. How is she doing that?
"Really, they've been together through high-school?" My mum asked a bit shocked.
"Yes ma'am. Sarah, his wife, she's amazing." She said in admiration.
"Sarah makes good food." Lizzy said.
My mum turned to her and giggled. "Is that so?"
Lizzy nodded with a huge smile. My mum laughed. This is actually turning out better than expected. What was I worried about?
"So, Rebecca," my mum started. "what are you planning to do after this." she said pointing between Rebecca and I.
Right... this.
Rebecca smiled. "Well, in four days actually i'm going to audition for a dance school in the London area. If I get in, i'm going to dance for the college and hopefully become a choreographer."
"Really. Not a firm foundation is it?" My mum said looking unpleased by her answer.
Gemma and I kinda just sat back watching this play out.
"No ma'am, but if I work really hard, and I will because i'm really passionate about dance i'll be able to get a good job to support myself." Rebecca answered.
How was she so good at this?
My mum smiled a genuine smile. "That sounds lovely, Rebecca."
Well..

"Thank you." She smiled.
"You seem very sweet, and you seem to have a future figured out." My mum turned to me. "Harry, why can't you get a girl like this?"
"Mum.." I groaned putting my hand over my eyes.
"I'm just saying." She said backing off.
"Mrs. Cox?" Rebecca interrupted.
"Yes dear?" My mum said.
"To me Harry has come a long way since those girls. I have a feeling you'll be meeting a great girl who you'll approve of very soon." She smiled putting her hand on my thigh squeezing it to make sure I knew she was on my side.
She really thinks that?
"I hope so." My mum said placing her hands in her lap. "because that one girl you brought.." she widened her eyes at the thought.
"I had no choice. She wanted to meet you and wouldn't leave me alone." I huffed.
Rebecca squeezed my thigh again and I looked at her. She gave me that look girls give their men telling them to shut up before you get in trouble, yeah that look. I shut it.
"So, Gemma how's college? I remember Harry mentioning it once or twice." Rebecca said switching the entire subject.
"It's going great actually, I'm loving this year. Way better than last." She said.
Our meals came shortly after, and we ate. We talked some and it was great. I think my mum likes Rebecca. This is good.
We spent the next hour eating everything. Once done with that, we all got up and went to socialize with everyone. It became really loud in there, but it was great because we are all like family. It's like one big family reunion. All the kids talked and played together. The teenagers talked amongst themselves, and then the adults. There were times when the lads and I would say hello and see how some of the adults were doing. It was good.
Rebecca met everyone, and everyone seemed to like her. Jay pulled me over to side once and asked if I fancied Rebecca because of some way I was looking at her. I don't know. I was just looking at her like I always do. To be safe, I said no. I guess, Louis told her about us, but I really didn't care. Jay is like a second mum to me.
At one point, Danielle wanted Rebecca to practice her audition routine for everyone. That was the first time i've seen Rebecca look so nervous and scared. Which is weird, because she's a dancer and they perform in front of a lot of people. To come to conclusion, no she didn't do it. She got out of it saying Lizzy needed to get to sleep.
I decided to go up with her to drop off her and Lizzy.
"You were so good out there with my mum, how'd you do that?" I asked.
She giggled a bit and smiled. "I told you, i'm a people person."
I nodded. "Right."
We walked up to their room and I dropped them off. "Goodnight, you two."
"Goodnight." Rebecca smiled.
I kissed her cheek and then kissed Lizzy's. "Goodnight, Liz biz."
"Night Curly." She smiled ruffling my hair.
I stood up and they went in. I walked all the way back down to the restaurant and when I got there my mum took my hand and pulled me over to the side.
"I really like Rebecca." She smiled.
I smiled like 10x more than her and I have no idea way. It just made me really happy she approved of Rebecca. "I'm glad."
"She's great, I hope i'll be seeing her soon." She winked and walked off.
Well, now... what's that suppose to mean?
