Chapter TWELVE!

My heart drumming in my chest was audible for miles as I waited impatiently with Hannah at my side. Katie had just finished her set and One Direction were about to take to the stage.

The lights dimmed as the VD rolled at the back of the stage, informing the crowd of the boy's journey. Although their voices were swiftly filling the arena I stared fixated at the stage waiting for them to appear.

And they did as if by magic, they ran through the sweeping doors, their presence electrifying. I had been some what tame throughout the show but seeing them after 2 weeks, I didn't care about upholding any reputation. I rose to my feet my hands in the air, clapping and screaming. The cheering was deafening but they deserved to know that they're loved.

The loud boom of the intro to We're The Kids In America rippled through the arena causing more heartily screams to break out. I caught Harry's glance and he winked towards me before turning to the crowd and belting out the first lines. An overwhelming sense of proud hit me as I cheered on for them.

Seeing them this happy made all the time apart worth while. To see him living his dream was all I needed to keep me going. Although we still had some time to go before they'd be home, I knew they were already in some ways home, on the stage is where they belonged and I wasn't going to keep them from that.

"Hey guys I'll be back in a sec Abby's ringing" I moved away from the group with my phone in my hand, annoyingly vibrating. I left the laughter and the clinking off glasses behind as I stepped outside.

"Hello?" I pressed the phone to my ear, wrapping my coat around my frame to defend myself from the cold night air that had all of sudden fallen upon Dublin.

"Kate! Oh my god, I've been trying to reach you" Abby's alarmed tone barked through the headset, she sounded annoyed.

"Sorry Abby, I've been in the arena so it's been in my bag and then the pub is really lo-"

"Yeah yeah okay whatever" She interrupted. I frowned at the unusual behaviour but listened to what she had to tell me so bad. "I've been trying to get a hold of you because I think someone has broken into the house"

"What?" I hissed, making sure I'd heard her right. Although I knew that I had.

"Did you not hear me?" She replied annoyed. "Someone tried to break in whilst I was out, The lock on the front door looks like it's been tampered with and the window on the door has been smashed."

Her voice was at the background of my thoughts as I tried to fathom what she'd said. My happiness made a dramatic turn. I felt the blood drain from my face at the thought of someone, a stranger walking through my house. It sickened me to my stomach that they might have been snooping through our drawers. They could have taken anything.

Who would want to break in? And why? I dwindled for a second on the thought that maybe it was a fan but it just didn't make sense. And how would the fan of got through the gate? A- They wouldn't know the code and B- There was no one there to let them in, Abby is the only person in the house at the minute.

"Was the gate tampered with?" I asked. She took a minute to answer.

"No"

I didn't get it; if the gate wasn't tampered with then no one can get in.

"Hello?" Abby's voice seeped through my thoughts.

"Yeah sorry Abby, have you been inside? Has anything been taken?" I walked up the street a little more to get away from the chatter and laughter of the pub.

"No I didn't go inside I'm at a friend's house right now so I don't know"

"Okay well just call the police and stay at your friends till we get back, I've got to go and tell the others. I'll talk to you later okay?"

"Okay will do, bye" The line rung off and I hastily ran back to the others.

"Have you called the insurance?" Hannah asked me the next morning whilst we were enjoying a coffee in Starbucks; the boys were recording with the Pokémon team for a few hours so we had some free time. I nodded, slipping a spoonful of foam from my latte into my mouth.

"They said they'd pretty much sort it" She nodded too, content with my answer. This trip wasn't turning out to be what I expected. Disappointment was an understatement. It seems whenever Harry and I are together the outside world tries to tear things apart.

I leant back into my chair in deep thought. The police still hadn't rang yet and Harry keeps making a big fuss that it's driving me crazy. He keeps blurting out stupid ideas like how he should hire a group of body guards to surround the house or that I should tour around the UK with him. His stupidity was going to get him into trouble one day. But the thing that keeps eating at me the most is that maybe this wasn't the first time someone had broken in.

"What are you thinking about?" Hannah asked from across the table, eying me suspiciously. I leant forward placing my half finished drink on the table.

"I'm wondering whether someone has tried to break in before, you know I told you about my phone going missing a few weeks ago and Abby found it but I don't remember putting it there?" She nodded quickly. "Well maybe someone had broken in and taken it. But I don't know why they'd come back again." We sat in silence for a minute both taking in my accusations.

"And also how would they know that no one was home?" She asked, agreeing with my suspicions. I shuddered at the thought of this stranger being in my house twice and having hold of my phone, going through it, knowing every ounce of my life that had been noted into the device. Wait a minute…it was like a light bulb flicked on in my brain, the answer flew at me full pelt and I kicked myself for not realising before.

"Mine and the boy's schedule" I whispered.

"What?" Hannah asked confused, placing her mug next to mine to alert her attention to the conversation.

"Mine and the boys schedule is in my phone, they must have read it and realised that the house would have been abandoned for the weekend." I explained.

"But the house wasn't completely abandoned. Abby's there remember" She responded.

"I know but they knew to come when she was out too" The pieces were starting to fit together all but a few, Hannah grasped onto those too.

"It's all making sense apart from how they got in because of the gate, it has to be someone who knows the code" Hannah concluded. We smiled at each other slightly. Achievement swam through my body.

"But it's only us, Abby, the car service and a few security who know it" I replied in a dull tone as the thought gathered in my mind. We both sunk further into our chairs, our faces dropping, realising that maybe we weren't as close to figuring this out as we thought we were.

"Maybe we should go home early?" Hannah suggested trying to hide the disappointment in her voice. My stomach fell, I had been thinking it too but I didn't want to suggest it at the hopes that maybe it wasn't a necessity but we both knew we had to. The idea of goodbye coming sooner than I expected made my heart throb.

"Yeah I think so, I'll ring the airport to see if we can get an early flight home tomorrow and cancel the one in a few days" I mumbled loud enough for her to hear all the while hiding the sadness that was building up inside.
