I was walking out of my building just as Harry pulled up. I quickly got in and gave Harry a quick kiss.

"You look lovely." He said to me making me blush like I was some 10 year old girl. "How was work?" He glanced over at me then back to the road.

"It was okay. I had 9 appointments today so I was very busy." I said from the passenger seat. I was currently trying to edit a picture for Instagram. Once I finished fixing the picture I uploaded it with a caption 'Great to be back in London x.' I locked my phone and put it back in my purse then rested my hand on Harry's thigh.

"Sounds eventful. At least now you can spend some time with your favorite boy band member now." He smiled to himself.

"Are we going to see Justin Timberlake?" I joked and Harry shot me a frown. "I'm joking. You're not half bad."

"We're going to be meeting up with Liam and Sophia." Harry said as we pulled up to the pub. We made our way into the pub and instantly found Sophia and Liam. We sat at our table for a couple hours with Harry's arm around my waist the entire time. We were discussing accents when my phone started to ring. It was my sister. My sister would never be calling me this late.

"Excuse me. I have to take this." I got up from the table and made my way outside. "Hello?" I said into the phone. I can tell my sister was sobbing.

"I'm sorry to call this late but it's Mason." My heart sank into my chest.

"What's wrong?" I started to slightly panic waiting for my sister's answer.

"He had another episode. His heart was shocked 17 times in 90 minutes. He needs a heart transplant." As she spoke those words I felt like my heart was being ripped out of my chest. All I wanted was to be able to give my little sister a hug and hold Mason in my arms but I was on the other side of the world.

"Oh my god. I can make it back to Pittsburgh this weekend. Don't worry Danielle. Everything will work out. I'll be there before you know it." I stood outside the pub on the phone with my sister for what felt like an eternity before Harry came out looking for me.

"Is everything okay?" He asked. However, he could tell by the look on my face it was not. He wrapped his arms around me and held me in his arms as I talked to my sister. After I got off the phone with my sister I wrapped my arms around Harry trying to fight back tears.

"Can we go? I'll explain everything in the car." I said to him and over his shoulder I spotted an eager fan looking at Harry. "You have someone that wants to meet you." I whispered in his ear. He turned around and greeted the fan.

"I'll go tell Liam we are leaving." He said once returning to me. I stood outside waiting for him and he returned moments later. We were in the car before he spoke again. "What's going on?" Harry asked as we were pulling away.

"Mason needs a transplant." Was all I could choke out. "So I'm going back to Pittsburgh this weekend to be with my family then I'll come back next week and be here until they find a heart." I told him my plan.

"I really hope they can find him a heart soon." Harry said as he rubbed hand on my leg. Once we got back to my flat I gave Harry a quick kiss.

"Do you want to come up? I really don't want to be alone right now." I said to him. He agreed and we went up to my flat. Gemma was in the kitchen when we entered.

"Back so soon?" She asked. However, she instantly gave me a hug because she could tell that something was wrong. I told her what my sister updated me on as she made us some tea. After we drank the tea Harry and I decided to go to bed. I really did not want to go to work tomorrow. I just wanted to be in Pittsburgh.
