Starting Over

Chapter 40

NH
The last few weeks in London have been very enjoyable. Harry has had to go do a few things here and there. We didn't spend that much time apart from each other which was very nice. However when Harry was out doing some interviews I choose just to explore the neighborhood we are staying in right now. I would just walk around and see what kind of shops there  were in the area. I stumbled across this really cute and cozy cafe that I just knew Harry would love so I made plans on bring him here before we left London. I also found a really good bakery and coffee shop and I bought some goodies to take back home to have as a desert after supper.
I found myself going to the same store every time Harry had some business to tend to. It was a little music store that I just completely fell in love with. The owner was a really nice gentleman that told me all kind of stories about people who have shopped in his store. Let me tell you he has had some really talented people as customers. It did take several visits before he started talking about some of his famous customers but all of our conversation were really very good ones. We even jammed out a few times and each time we did he would play a different instrument. It just amazed me at how talented he was because he was really good on everything he played. I of course would always play the guitar sometimes acoustic and sometimes the eclectic. That is how I fell in love with a new beauty. I really loved that Gibson guitar but there was no way in hell I could afford it. Well I could spend all my savings but there is no way I would do that. I will just add to my list of things I want some day.

Our time in London is quickly coming to an end. I am both excited and saddened about this. Excited because we will spend a week at the beach.  Harry has told me that much but he refuses to tell me where we are going. Saddened because it was very nice being on break. Harry and I got to spend most of the time how we wanted. Which by the way we spent most of our time being very low key. We we walk around a park not far from the flat. Go out to eat in little places close to the flat. Then simply we would just stay in. Harry teaching me how to cook some of his favorite dishes. Our few weeks in this flat have been absolutely fantastic and I will really miss this cozy little place.

Our time in London was entirely too short if you ask me. I haven't been this relaxed in a long time and that is all due to Niall. We didn't have to be going to all the hot and happening clubs and restaurants. Niall didn't want to flaunt me around like I was a big prize or something. He wanted to simply spend time with just me. This is so different from my relationship with Nick. Niall wants me for me and not for what I can do for him or his career.
One day I was on my way home when I saw Niall leaving a music store. He was standing in the doorway speaking with an older gentleman and you can tell they had both been laughing. I am just glad he has enjoyed his afternoon since I had to go do an interview and a photo shoot to go along with the article. I did offer for him to come along but he declined saying he wanted to walk around the neighborhood some more.
The same evening of the photo shoot and interview Niall and I just stayed in. I was tired because it was a long day. All I really wanted to do was have a little supper and snuggle in for the evening. Niall and I decided to cook a simple pasta dish and have some wine. We carried on an easy conversation while we cooked and ate. Niall told me about the music store he has been stopping in at when I was busy. He was so excited about his adventures there and how he and the owner would do some jamming sessions while he was there. His eyes just light up when he was talking about the amazing guitar he got to play. He also told me about some of the customers who bought instruments from the store. I will say the store sounds very nice and I am glad Niall was able to have some fun when I was gone for work.
I can't believe how fast the time went. It just felt like we arrived in London yesterday and now we will be leaving in two days. The nice thing is that we will be finally heading to Jamaica. I am so glad that we still get to spend time there. When the whole so called cheating scandal blow up I didn't think we would make it to Jamaica at all let alone going as a couple. Niall still doesn't know where we are going and he won't know until we arrive because I have lined up a private jet. I know it may be a bit much but Niall deserves to be pampered and I will do whatever to make sure that happens.
