Red String 2 {h.s}

Chapter 15

"Hello my love," he says, nuzzling his face into her shoulder, which Amy meets with a glare.

"Ruby, Amy's cross with me. Tell her how much you like me and how fun I am."

"No, Amy's fun. She color with me. You never color."

Amy looks at Harry smugly and watches little Ruby crawl out of his lap and onto Amy's, which only increases the smile on her face. But Harry starts smiling smugly too, because Amy is proving his theory right, that everyone loves Amy more than they love him. He leans over and kisses her forehead and then gives Ruby a little kiss too.

Ruby and Amy watch a few cartoons on an iPad before Ruby falls asleep on Amy's lap. Not long after, Harry looks over and Amy is asleep too. Both Mer and Harry take photos of the sleeping duo, before grabbing a blanket to wrap them up. Amy wakes first and Ben tries to coax her to take Ruby off of her so she can stretch her legs but Amy is having none of it, determined to let Ruby sleep for as long as she needs. Niall and Harry have been playing cards to pass the time, like they often did on long flights with the band. Niall eventually takes a break to shut his eyes, feeling worn down from his few days at home in Ireland and all the pubs he visited. After nearly nine hours, they land and then shortly after board the smaller plane to Anguilla. Amy's never been on a small plane like this and enjoys seeing the Crystal blue ocean and white sands from above.

They're staying on a yacht for most of their trip, another first for Amy. They all thought it would give them privacy for their vacation as the area can get quite busy with tourists. Once landed, the group of them, including two nannies, as well as all of their luggage, are loaded into several vans to make the trip to the marina.

The boat is bigger than Amy could imagine, having multiple floors. It has beautiful teakwood decks and white leather lounge seats inside, and Amy can't believe how luxurious it is. A full staff greets them, all in white uniforms of shorts and a polo. Then, they all hear the sound of a loud British voice.

"Angelo! Come on, darling, they're here!"

And out comes the legend herself, Adele. Amy would barely recognize her if it wasn't for her voice, as she is noticeably smaller than Amy last remembers from the media. Adele rushes around, giving hugs and cheek kisses to everyone, her boisterous personality on full display.

"And you must be Amy! It's so wonderful to meet you!" she says before Harry has a chance to introduce her, engulfing Amy in a big hug.

"It's nice to meet you, too!" Amy responds.

"Come on! Let's get you a drink and you can tell me all the gosp about you and H," she says, as she keeps her arm flung around Amy's shoulders, winking back at Harry.

Minutes later when Amy goes to take the glass offered to her by Adele, the British singer's mouth drops open in shock.

"Holy fuck! Is that an engagement ring?! Are you lot engaged?!"

Harry snakes his arm around Amy's chest, pulling her back to his front as he nods at Adele with a big dimpled smile.

"No fucking way! Why am I always the last to know about these things?!" she huffs.

"We've been trying to keep it pretty quiet. Don't want the press to know. They follow us enough as it is," Harry explains.
