A/N: Hi guys! So I decided to do a surprise update today! Just because I have some amazing news...this morning I became and Aunt! Yep that's right Greg and Denise gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. Niall is extremely ecstatic and so am  I, I can not wait to meet my nephew. Anyways here's another chapter for you guys. Enjoy. :D

Forgiveness: The action or process of forgiving or being forgiven. One lesson most kids learn when they're young is that it is good to forgive and forget. But how do you decide if someone is worthy of forgiveness. Or how are you supposed to forgive and forget the bad things. As you age forgiving and forgetting seems to get harder because the things you are forced to forget get harder to forget. Sometimes forgiveness isn't always the answer because some things people do can never be forgiven. Some things people do take a piece of you with them and you can no longer think about forgiving them. But when the time comes to forgive and forget you'll know exactly what to do.

I popped up in bed breathy heavily, my skin extremely sticky. Yet another nightmare...fifth time this week. When were they going to end...every dream was the same. I was stuck somewhere searching for Harry and when I finally found him I was in a church. He was just about to say his I do's every time and that's when I stepped in. And before the dream Harry could react I'd wake up. It had been about three months since Harry disappeared along with the rest of One Direction. No more concerts, no more interviews or press conferences. They had dropped off the face of the earth putting out and an occasional song/cover on YouTube. But they were always in the same dark black room. Leaving no hints to their wear abouts. It must be killing them to be in hiding for so long and I, Hailey Cooper---yet again---caused this. My mom has been staying with me since then just there to keep me company. My dad occasionally sends me an e-mail or two. But it hasn't been the same since my parent's divorce was finalized last month. The divorce again caused by me because my dad keeps saying “I told you so.” whenever Harry's name is mentioned and my mom always argues that he still loves me. I guess you should call me Hailey Cooper-life ruiner.

My mom has urged me to try and forget about it all and trust me I've tried. I changed my last name back and got my hair back to it's natural color before going back to teaching. And let me tell you my students were kind of confused but they eventually got used to me. I start every day of class with a short song, just to get my feelings out for the day. The kids don't really understand what the words me but it helps me. Spring Break started yesterday which means no school for the next two weeks. I'm kind of disappointed because teaching helps me get my mind off of everything. Luckily my sister is supposed to arrive later tonight to stay with me until her Spring Break ends. It warms my heart that she'd rather come visit me than go to Florida with all her friends from school.

I pulled myself out of bed just in time to see the sun slowly rising. I grabbed a bowl of Multi-Grain cheerios before taking a seat on the balcony to watch the sun as it rises. After a few minutes of silently watching the sunrise the sliding opens revealing my mother as she takes a seat next to me.

“More nightmares?” she pouts and I give a small nod. “We'll find him soon sweetie and everything will be fine.” she assures me.

“What if it doesn't Mom? Harry obviously doesn't want to be found so what if he decides that he likes the life he has. And never wants to come out of hiding. I need to find him Mom...I'm not going to loose him again.” I stand up quickly making my way to the kitchen and throwing my bowl into the sink. I begin to wash it when something on the TV catches my eye. I rush to the TV turning the volume on and listening to the story developing before me.

“It's been quite awhile since One Direction suddenly disappeared leaving the fans frantic. The boys have been in hiding for about three months now and nobody can seem to find them. It seems as if the only people that know where they are, are the boys themselves. The only thing keeping the fans from going to completely insane are the weekly songs and covers they release on you tube. And recently the boys released a cover this morning causing some controversy. I have to say when I first heard the song this morning I cried a little because it is an extremely sentimental song. Harry started off the video by saying that he wrote this song for someone special and that they know who they are. Now the question is who is this special someone and why hasn't she taken him back yet. If a guy ever wrote me a song I'd probably be in his arms within seconds. Well that's all we have time for today...if you want to check out the boys song then head to our website and click on the link. Thanks for watching and see you next time.” the reporter finishes and I quickly run to my room whipping out my laptop. Quickly going to the website and clicking on the glowing. There is not doubt in my mind that this song is about me and I need to hear the message.
