Karmina's POV

Karmina beamed down at the ten carat diamond cut rock around her left ring finger. From the moment Harry put it on her finger she could not cease the staring. It wasn't just a ring, it was a promise. A promise, that one day they would be married. The ring was a shinning beacon of hope for a future together as a family. That Karry wouldn't have to grow up in a broken home.

"Bonjour, Karmina," Gabrielle sat across her in the booth of the dimly lit sports bar. Karmina had been so concentrated in her thoughts she had forgotten she was waiting for her. Never had that ever happened to Karmina, but it must be something that happens when you are truly happy.

"Hey Gabrielle," Karmina smiled. Earlier in the week Gabrielle had asked her to lunch to discuss her options regarding her book.

"Sorry I'm late. I caught a train in late last night from Paris," Gabrielle fumbled through her purse pulling out several different documents, books and a laptop. "It's been a little crazy lately," she spoke over the hum of several televisions in the background. Since her split with Niall, Gabrielle had been staying in her home in Paris. Karmina had opted to stay in London, deciding that it would probably eventually be her home. "So how have you been?"

"Life had been perfect. How about you?" Karmina smiled wide. Gabrielle shrugged nonchalantly. "Have you spoken to him?" Karmina probed, referring to Niall.

"No, and I don't want too. It was a mistake and it just wasn't meant to be," she spoke fiercely but Karmina could see the sadness in her eyes.

"So what's there to discuss? I've finished Just A Dream. There's just some editing I have to before I send them a copy," Karmina sipped her water, thinking a subject change was needed.

"That's great! They are going to love that. Well you know you've had the most fans in New York." Gabrielle began, Karmina nodded for her to continue. "Well, your book made it to the New York's Best seller list!"

"Are you serious?!" Karmina squealed. Everything in life only got better and better.

"Yes! So I think it best of we do more promotional events in New York and announce a release for the sequel," Gabrielle waved over a waiter to order.

"How long would that be?" Karmina asked, hoping it wouldn't be too long.

"Two or three months," Gabrielle retuned to speaking to the waiter. Nothing good could last. Everything was going great and now she had to tell Harry she would be in New York for two to three months. Granted, he was on tour still but they had grown accustomed to sharing his apartment when they had time available to them.

"That's a long time," Karmina sighed. She glanced around the room lost in thought. How would she even beginning to tell Harry this? At the moment he was home with Karry.

"The American part of the tour is coming soon so you should be able to see him," Gabrielle tried to reason as she stuck a fork into her pasta. Karmina had decided on just a salad, and she was grateful for her appetite hit the floor. "It's not permanent. Just a few weeks really?" Gabrielle's eyes had softened.

"You're right," Gabrielle sipped her coffee and returned to an absentminded gaze. Her mind was far from here. Now, her ghostly eyes wandered without a destination. Finally, stopping at the television again. It was much easier to zone out staring at the t.v.

She and Harry had already been through so much. Since the beginning there relationship had been a constant separation and full of reunions. The last thing she wanted was to ruin what they had now, but she had already put her career on hold for his. The dreams she had for herself hadn't faded. She stared at the t.v again and blinked twice. A familiar face on the screen. She knew him. She had seen that face a thousand times, he had aged. The voice a little deeper but still the same. There he was on the screen of the t.v. Derek Diaz, her husband.
