Chapter 39

Maddie’s P.O.V
I woke up at 7am and went down to the garage in my pyjamas. I opened the boxes and set up the gym equipment. I went back upstairs and got changed into some workout clothes. I worked out for about an hour before going to shower and get ready for work. It was about 9.30 when I was ready and I went and got Brooke ready. It was 9.45 when everything was sorted out. I ran downstairs with all my things and Brooke and got into my Audi. I drove out of the garage and locked the door behind me before driving to El’s. I got there and texted her to come downstairs. She came down quickly and got in. We drove to the office and got there at exactly 10. “Maddie, songwriting, room 5.” Isabelle ran to me when I arrived. She led me to the room and I walked in with El holding Brooke behind me. “Hi,” I greeted everyone. “Ms Anderson, take a seat and we’ll get to discussing this song.” I sat down closely followed by El. “I’m Chris, I’m going to be the main songwriter on this single. This is June and Sarah.” He introduced everyone. “What genre of music would you like this single to be? It will have to be something you’re comfortable with so we can continue it when it comes to making an album.” Chris said. “Umm, I’m comfortable with pop.” I told him. “That’s okay, we’ll do a pop song then.” He said. “What do you want the subject of the song to be?” “Umm, what would you suggest?” I asked. “Well a lot of pop songs are about love or family, they would be good subjects.” He replied. “Family, I left mine behind and I want to make up for that.” I told him. “Okay, so we can do a song about family, a title can be, urr, fresh start?” He suggested. “Yes! That’s amazing!” I said. “Okay, so a pop song about leaving family behind for a fresh start, yeah?” “Yeah,” I confirmed. “Let’s get started then. Should we start with a chorus to base the verses around?” He asked. “Yeah okay,” I agreed. “How about, I have to get away, leave all of you behind, I wish I didn’t have to, but I ne-e-ed a fresh start,” He wrote down some lyrics. “Yeah that’s good, that’s not really a chorus though, I want the chorus to be kind of upbeat. I think that would make a good first verse though.” I told him. “Okay, what did you want to do when you came to the UK?” He asked. “Follow my dreams. That’s all I ever wanted to do.” I said. “Perfect.” He scribbled down a chorus. It took us until 2pm but we managed to write a song, we just need to get it approved. “Right, let’s go and get some lunch,” Chris stood up. Isabelle walked over to me with an iPad in her arms. “Maddie, I have a diet plan that your modelling agency sent over. What’s your email address so I can send it to you?” She asked. I told her and she sent it. “Thanks,” she ran off towards the cafeteria. “A diet? You’re skinny enough as it is for god sake.” El said. “They’re a modelling agency, they’re gonna want skinny models. An eight isn’t that skinny.” I replied. “Isn’t it? What do they want then?” She asked. “A six, and I can do that. I really love modelling and if I have to lose a little weight to be able to do it, I’m going to. Nothing can hold me from modelling.” I said taking Brooke off her. “Okay, don’t bite my head off.” She stood back. “I’m sorry. This is just stressful.” I apologised. “It’s fine. I’m starving, can we get lunch?” She said. “Yeah let’s go,” we walked to the cafeteria. I pulled my phone out of my bag and went on my emails to see what my diet was. Salad. I went and got some salad for me and pasta for Brooke and sat down. I fed Brooke first and then ate my salad. Simon came in and asked me how we were doing. “The songs finished, just needs approving.” I told him. “Where is it then?” He replied. “Chris has got it.” He walked over to Chris and Chris handed him the song. He read through it and smiled. I saw him nod his head. He came back over to me. “That’s a great song, an amazing debut single. Can you come and record it on Wednesday?” He asked. “It will take a while to record but we can work on making the backing track for it and then you just need to come in and record it. Is that okay?” “Yeah, that’s fine. Thanks.” That gives me two days at home. “No problem, we’ll have to do a photo shoot too because you haven’t started modelling yet and we need a cover for the single. We can get all of that done in the next couple of weeks and add the finishing touches to it and we’re done! You’ve got your first single.” He laughed. I smiled and he walked back to his office so I continued to eat. I finished and waited for El so we could go home. Brooke starts nursery on weekdays tomorrow, Monday. “I’ll see you on Wednesday,” I told Isabelle when El had finished eating. “Okay, bye.” She replied. We stood up and left for home. “2 days to get this house sorted out without Brooke around.” I said to El when we pulled up outside. I took everything out of the car and went inside. “I’ll help you, we better get started. I’ll put Brooke down for her nap.” She said taking Brooke off me. I kicked off my heels and dumped my stuff before walking into the kitchen. I opened the cupboard and looked at it. El came back downstairs and I handed her a notebook. I went round the kitchen telling her what we needed and she wrote it down. I started to clean whilst she sat at the dining room table on my laptop ordering things occasionally asking for opinions. I cleaned all the kitchen and went into the office to set up the printer. “Can I borrow the laptop for a sec?” I asked El. “Sure,” she walked into the office and gave me it. I plugged it into the printer and went on my emails to print off my diet. “Add computer to that list. I can’t just use my laptop all the time.” I said after printing out my diet. We have a desk and chair from the apartment but nothing else for the office. I took the notebook and wrote everything we need for the office. “I’ll go back to ordering then,” El said. “I really appreciate this, thank you.” I said. “Don’t worry about it, I love online shopping!” She laughed. “Okay,” I went into the dining room and cleaned in there too. I finished the dining room and went into the hall. The hall is a complete mess because I just dump everything when I get in. I moved everything away from the cupboard under the stairs and opened it. It has nothing in it. I put my shoes and the stroller in and shut the door. I hung up all my jackets on the coat pegs and then sat on the floor sorting through my bags. I put some in the office because I need them for work and some into the cupboard. I hoovered the hall and then went into the living room. I opened the box of Brooke’s toys and put all of them that were lying around into it. El came out of the office. “That’s all ordered, do you need anything else?” She asked. “Umm, I don’t think so.” I said. She sat down on the couch and I continued to clear up. “Done, ground floor sorted.” I told her when I finished tidying. “I have something for you,” I sat next to her and picked up the present that I bought for her in L.A. I gave her it and she smiled. “You really didn’t have to.” She said hugging me. “I kinda did, I dumped my kid on you, the least I could do was buy you a present.” I smiled. We talked for a while and then I went to get Brooke so I could take El home. I put Brooke into the car and drove back to El’s. “Thank you for all your help today, do you want to come round tomorrow too?” I asked as I pulled into the parking lot. “Yeah sure, what time?” She questioned. “After I drop Brooke off at nursery which is at 9 so I’ll be here at about 9.15.” I told her. She nodded and got out of the car. I watched to see she got into the building okay and then drove home. Me and Brooke spent some time watching cartoons and playing with her toys. I’m going to miss her when she’s at nursery but it will help me get things done. It’s my birthday on Wednesday and I’m working but I don’t even care. Harry isn’t around so if I’m working so what? No one is around to spend time with me and celebrate so what’s the point? I put Brooke to sleep and went into my room. I got ready for bed, got in and fell asleep.
I woke up at 7am and got changed into workout clothes. I worked out for an hour and got ready for the day. I got Brooke up and sorted out and went downstairs and got into my BMW. I drove to the nursery and some of the older mums just looked at me as if I was too young to be there. I dropped off Brooklyn and the helpers smiled at me. They obviously knew who I was. You have to sign in your child and I didn’t sign her in as Styles. I put Anderson just so they didn’t treat her any differently. I had to point out who Brooke was and kissed goodbye to her before leaving. They have all my details in case they need me. I drove from the nursery to El’s to pick her up. “Brooke get to nursery okay?” She asked when she got in the car. “Yeah, she was an angel.” I smiled. We drove back to my house. “This car is so nice,” Eleanor admired. I laughed. “This isn’t even the best one!” We went inside and up to Brooklyn’s bedroom. I pulled the tape off from around the walls and went downstairs to put it in the bin. The doorbell rang when I was down there. I answered the door. “We have a delivery for an M Styles?” The man said. “Yeah, that’s me.” I replied. He handed me a touch screen and a pen as well as a few parcels. I put them down and signed before he gave me a few more parcels. “Thanks,” I smiled and handed him the touch screen back. “Have a good day,” he walked back to his van. I shut the door and took the parcels upstairs. “Look what I’ve got!” I said walking into the bedroom. “It arrived!” El said excitedly. I put the parcels down and we started opening the boxes. It was all the furniture for Brooke’s room so we put it all together and sorted it out. The room was completely sorted by 1pm. We went downstairs and got lunch which consisted of a salad for me. I’m literally on a salad diet. We sat and watched a movie which I had to cut short to go and get Brooke. I drove to the nursery. “How was she?” I asked. “A star, she gets on really well with the other toddlers and has made some new friends. Oh, and don’t worry. We are treating her like the others and not differently because of her father so you can put Styles down when you drop her off.” The main helper told me. “That’s great, thank you. I want Brooke to be treated like a normal little girl and not like she has a famous dad so I definitely chose the right nursery.” I signed Brooke out and picked her up. The helper wished me good evening and I left and drove back to El. I put Brooklyn in front of the TV so she could watch cartoons and I chatted with El until around 7pm when I took her home. We stayed at her apartment for a bit before going home and going to bed.
-Skip 1 day-
I woke up to my alarm telling me to get up and start working out. Saturday is when I find out how much weight I’ve lost and whether or not I get the modelling job. I got dressed in my workout clothes and went down to the garage to work out. I worked out for an hour and a half before getting ready for work. I dropped Brooke off at nursery on the way. I reached the office on time and Isabelle came over to me. “Good morning Ms Anderson, I know you prefer to be called Maddie but I’ve been told to take a more formal approach.” She handed me some papers. “The finished lyrics for Fresh Start. They had to make some changed to fit it to the music.” She told me. “Okay, thanks Isabelle.” I said. “Can you get me a coffee please?” I asked. “Of course, Chris is waiting for you in the studio. Room 10.” She ran off to the cafeteria and I walked to the studio. I walked in and put my back down. “Hi Maddie, did Isabelle give you the lyrics?” Chris said. “Yep, I like these more,” I told him. “That’s good then,” He replied. “We’ll start without music for you to get the melody right and then add it to the music okay?” He said. I nodded and he told me to start singing. I sung the whole song a few times through. “Perfect, now we just need to get you in the booth and have you record that.” Chris said excitedly. I walked into the booth and we started to record.

Harry’s P.O.V

It’s Maddie’s birthday today so I decided to call her to say Happy Birthday. The phone rang for a while and I was just about to hang up when someone answered. “Ms Anderson’s phone, how can I help you?” A woman said. “Can I speak to Maddie please?” I asked. “Who’s calling?” The woman replied. “Her husband.” I said bluntly. “Ms Anderson is busy right now, can I take a message?” She continued. “Just put her on the phone!” I demanded. “Sorry to interrupt Ms Anderson, there’s someone on the phone who wants to speak to you.” I heard her say in the background. “Take a message, I’m busy. Who is it anyway?” I heard Maddie. I sighed. I knew the woman was looking at the caller ID. “Harry, heart, heart, x, x, x” She said. I laughed. That’s what I saved my name as in her phone when I first met her and she’s never changed it. Then again, I haven’t changed hers either. “Oh give me the phone!” Maddie’s voice got clearer. “Hey,” Maddie greeted me. “This is all getting on top of you way too fast Maddie,” I lectured her. “If you’re calling to lecture me, I’ll hang up. I like working okay; it’s none of your business what I do at work.” She said harshly. “It kind of is, you’re my wife, everything to do with you is my business. Anyway, Happy Birthday!” I said. “Thanks, I’m really busy so I’ve got to get back to recording. I’ll call you back later okay.” She said. “Alright, bye.” I said sounding deflated. She hung up. I was still confused by the Ms Anderson bit not to mention her being completely off with me, I also hated that I had to explain myself before I could even speak to my wife. I knew this would take over but I had no idea how fast.
Maddie’s P.O.V
“One more time, from the top,” Chris announced. I sang Fresh Start for the last time. “Well done, we’re finished for today, tomorrow and Friday are your shoots and the single should be ready to be released on Sunday. You work really well so I think this is the quickest single we’ve had yet. You’re much easier to work with than your husband and the rest of the lads.” Chris laughed. That reminded me I have to call Harry. “Haha, thanks, I’ll see you tomorrow.” I grabbed my bag and walked out. I rummaged around for my keys and phone and found them after a few minutes of searching. I looked at the time, 2pm, time to call Harry and get something to eat before I need to pick Brooke up. I got into my car and dialled Harry’s number.
(Harry/Maddie)
Hi,
I’m sorry about earlier. I was recording. My single is basically finished!
That was quick! Well done! Who answered the phone anyway?
My P.A, Isabelle.
And what’s up with the Ms Anderson?
I’m sorry, I didn’t want to be known as Maddie Styles, Harry’s wife so I decided to be Anderson at work.
Fair enough, how’s Brooke getting on at nursery?
Yeah good, she’s made friends and they treat her exactly the same as the others. I’ve got to go and get something to eat before I pick her up so Skype me later baby okay?
Okay gorgeous, love you.
I love you too.

I hung up. I drove to a Starbucks down the road from the nursery and had a white hot chocolate. People knew who I was and it was freaking me out so I left and went to pick Brooke up. The helpers told me how she was getting on before we left for home. I got back and parked the car on the platform. I went inside and played with Brooke for a while before there was a knock on the door. I got up from the floor and opened it. “Hey!!” Dani, Eleanor and Belle shouted. “Happy Birthday!” I let them in. Belle brought her boyfriend Jack with her. “We didn’t get you presents because you don’t like presents except at Christmas and you have everything already!” Dani laughed. I smiled. “It’s alright, I didn’t want anything.” I told them. We sat and talked before the laptop started to go off signalling a Skype call. I knew it was Harry. I answered it and all the boys were there. “Happy Birthday Maddie!!!” They all shouted. I laughed and El and Dani came to see them. Liam and Louis looked so happy and I could see Niall staring at something in the background. I turned around and realised he was staring at Belle and Jack. I turned back and he was still looking at them. I looked at the tiny box which showed me and saw Jack lean in to kiss Belle. I heard the screeching of a chair as Niall stood up and walked out. I turned to Belle and Jack who were making out. “Good one Belle. You never think do you? You broke Niall’s heart and now you have to rub it in his face that you’ve moved on.” I said. She pulled away from Jack. “What?” She looked up at me. “Niall saw you do that.” I told her. She shrugged her shoulders. “So what? Niall and I are over Maddie.” She said. I stood up. “Get out! Both of you!” I shouted. “What?” Belle sounded shocked. “You heard me. Get out. You’re so shallow, you don’t even care that you’ve upset Niall. He loved you Belle and all you’ve done is hurt him. Get out.” I repeated. She stood up and dragged Jack out slamming the door behind her. “Wow.” Harry said looking straight at me. “No one hurts one of my best friends and gets away with it.” I said. He laughed. “Tell us about your single.” Zayn said. “Nope, you’ll have to wait until Sunday to find out.” I smirked. “At least tell us what it’s called.” Liam said. “It’s called Fresh Start.” I said. “Ahh, that just makes it more intriguing. Please Maddie?” Louis begged. “Fine, it’s about leaving family behind for a fresh start like I did when I moved to the UK.” I told them. “That’s cool. I can’t wait to hear it babe, but you better not beat us to any awards.” Harry laughed making me laugh in response. “I won’t, don’t worry. Trust me it’s not that good!” I said. “Well tell us when it’s out then. We’ve got to go, sorry!” Liam said. Harry blew a kiss to me and Liam and Louis copied him blowing kisses to Dani and El. “See you soon!” I said before hanging up the call. Dani and El sat and watched movies with me until it got late and I let them sleep over because they were too tired to drive home.

Chapter 22 was when they went to look to houses but I never put any links in, sorry about that. I kind of wanted to keep it up to everyone's imagination. I know I have an idea how it looked, and I'm sure many readers did too.

in what chapter/s can I get the links to the houses that harry and maddie go to look at ?
