May POV
"What do you think?" Harry asks me as we step into the living room of our house. Over the time of 2 weeks the kitchen and living room have been redone.
"It's really pretty." I say while looking around. The floors are redone with white glossy tile and overall it looks different than what we left it to be.
"If you don't like anything we can change it. I want to make this everything you imagine." I gently kiss his cheek.
"I love it Harry." I say with a gentle smile. "It's just so pretty I don't know what to say."
He smiles and looks around. "I wanna knock down this wall." He points to the one that has nothing on it. "We can enter the stairs this way. It would be easier."
"Do whatever you please Harry." I smile softly. This house is already so expensive looking and the upstairs isn't even redone yet.
Harry's fingers slowly intertwine with mine as we walk about. I still can't believe this is our house.
"Are you still coming with me on Tuesday to Ronnie's wedding?" I ask Harry as we walk into the beautiful kitchen. There are two clear doors that lead to the back yard that has an in ground pool.
"Do you still want me to go with you?" His green eyes look to me.
"Of course, yeah. I'm just double checking that you're still going." I explain shortly.
"Yeah I took Tuesday and Wednesday off." I don't reply I just nod and look around in amazement.
It's around 6 o'clock and we're going over Harry's parents house for dinner. He wanted to stop by our house and see how it was doing though. I didn't mind.
Our house and his parents house are only 10 minutes away. It's nice that we're close to his parents house. Also weird because I only live 20ish minutes away from mine.

"Hi!" Anne says loudly while throwing her arms around me. She squeezes me tightly making me chuckle. "I haven't seen you in forever." She pulls her arms off of me and holds my elbows. A wide smile on her lips. "You look wonderful dear."
"Thanks." I say with a soft grin. "You look great yourself."
"You're just being nice." Her eyes look to Harry. "Is Harry in a good mood?" Anne whispers to me. I nod with a chuckle.
"How are you Mom?" Harry speaks up.
"Lovely since you guys decided to come over. It's been months since you decided to call." Anne nudges her son. She hugs him and I give them some space. I see Des in the kitchen.
"Need some help?" I ask curiously. He looks over to me and smiles.
"No dear. How are you and my son doing? I thought you guys not visiting was a hint that you guys split up."
I lean against the kitchen counter. "We haven't been good but, we're working on us and our relationship." Des nods and puts carrots into the boiling water.
"That's good that you guys are working on it." He smiles gently. "Just make sure he calls his Mom and sister once every week. Both have been worried about him and his behaviour."
"I think now he's working back into being himself, so I'll make sure to remind him to call his family. How's Gemma doing?"
"Good. She's engaged." My eyes widen.
"No shit, really?" Des smiles and nods.
"Yeah. It's been three months since Nick proposed." Nick is Gemma's fiancé.
"Well damn." I say with a snicker. "Everybody seems to be getting married now a days."
"Didn't Ellie and Sadie get married currently?"
"Ellie got married last year and is now pregnant. Sadie got married three years ago I believe. On Tuesday we're going to my best friends wedding as well so that's interesting."
"It's marriage season, huh?"
"Very much so." I say with a chuckle. I feel arms wrap around me and a head rest on my shoulder. My body warms up and my back relaxes into Harry.
"Whatcha guys talking about?" Harry asks.
"What's for dinner." Des lies then smiles.
"Interesting." He chuckles. "How's Gem?"
"Engaged."
"No shit?" Harry says with shock in his voice.
"If you answered your phone every once and a while you'd know." His Dad says with a playful grin.
"Hm, fair enough." Harry's fingers stroke my skin gently. I let them talk and stuff and I help Anne set up the dining room.
"You don't need to help me." She says as I put the plates down.
"I'd love to help you Anne." She grins and places down forks.
"So, how are you doing?"
"Uh, fine." I say. "You?"
"I'm good. My daughter is getting married soon which you know now and it's amazing. She makes me go with her to food tastings, to pick out flowers, chairs, and what not."
"Seems like a lot of bonding." Anne nods.
"Have you talked to your Mom?"
"No." I say. "When I went to my sisters weddings she was there but I had Harry be my watch dog and tell me where she was so I could avoid being where she was."
"She didn't call after uh April?"
"Nope." I brush my hair back. "I wouldn't expect her too. I don't even know if she knows." I place down the fancy glasses.
"That's a shame." Anne says softly.
"It's better off this way." I say honestly. "Less stress on me." Harry's Mom nods.
"Is everything good between you and Harry? I know he's been off."
"We're getting better." I say. "Everything is just slowly getting back to normal after April which is weird since it's been four years."
"Time has passed huh?"
"Yep." I force a smile.
It's weird knowing it's been four years and she would've been four.

Dinner was nice.
It seemed like Harry's parents enjoyed having him home and seeing him.
Currently we're in the car. "Can we stop by the store?"
"Sure, what do you need go get?"
"I want ice cream." I say honestly. "I'm in the mood for some."
"Then we shall get you ice cream." I lean back in the car seat.
"Did you have a good time?" I ask.
"Yeah. Did you?" His green eyes looks to me.
"Yeah. I like your family. They're easy to get along with."
Even though me and my sisters are good it's still not the same. The only one on my side of the family that I honestly care about the most is Bell and that's because she's the only one who I can spend hours with.
We pull into the supermarket and get out of the car.
We automatically walk to where the ice cream is. We stare at the selection. "Which flavour do you want?" I ask Harry.
"Cookies n cream." I grab it. "But get whichever one you want."
"I like cookies n cream so it's good." I open my wallet and Harry closes it. My eyes look up at him. He takes the tub out of my hands.
"I'm going to go pay for this."
"I can." I insist.
"May, I got it." He kisses my cheek. "Mean time roam the isles to see if we need anything else." I nod and we go our own ways.
We have eggs, milk, bread, cheese, flour, cereal, snacks, and meat, at the house. I think we're good other wise.
I turn back around and walk into someone. "I'm sorry." I say to the women.
"It's fine." Her voice fills my ears. I take a better look at the women and realise it's my Mother.
