Kendall's POV

My heart beats rapidly as I walk up the stairs into Harry's bedroom. I haven't been in his Malibu home in months but he still kept his keys at the secret box only he and I know... or maybe his girlfriend too.

I know that I have no right to meddle with their relationship as I am ending mine with Harry but I feel like he needs to know what I saw and I could only hope that he listens to me. At least for now.

"Harry?" I call out again as I stop just outside his bedroom. I hear a shuffling sound from the other side and a few seconds later, the door opens with a half-asleep Harry.

He frowns as he rubs circles on his eyes and It was one of the cutest things he does every time he wakes up. How I've missed him so much.

"Kendall?" He asks confused and I nod my head before he slowly steps out of his room, closing the door behind.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were sleeping and no one was answering the door so I let myself in." I sheepishly tell him and he gives me a small smile before shaking his head.

"S'kay. You want something to drink?" He asks and I chuckle before nodding my head. Harry starts making his way on the top of flight of the stairs before walking down. I follow right behind him and we enter the kitchen as soon as we reach the ground.

"Lemon tea?" He raises an eyebrow and I nod my head trying to keep the smile off my face. It's always my go to beverage when I visit him here when we were still dating and it warms my heart that he still remembers even after a long time has passed.

"So what brought you here? Aren't you supposed to be in Italy?" He asks as he places the kettle on the stove. I sigh as I try to think of a way how to tell him.

"Yes, I finished the photoshoot for Vogue yesterday and decided to come home straight." I tell him and I see him nod his head while his back faces me.

"To me?" He asks but I could see the smirk in his face right now without him even facing me. I roll my eyes.

"Uh, I wanted to drop by before I go home to Aqua." I quickly respond trying dismiss that conversation. He chuckles before turning around and getting two teacups from the cupboard and setting them down on the counter. I watch him as he waits for the water to boil. It took a couple of minutes before Harry places a cup in front of me with fresh lemons. I thank him quietly before taking a sip of the refreshing tea.

Harry leans over to the counter while he tucks his hands on his armpits. Here we go.

"What exactly did you come here for?" He finally asks and nibble on my lip before looking him straight in the eyes.

"I saw Camille with Theo in Italy."

"Wait, wait, what?" Harry's forehead furrows in confusion. I take another deep breath before repeating what I just said two seconds ago.

"I said, I saw Camille, with her ex-boyfriend Theo, in Italy." I slowly say as Harry blinks a couple more times before standing up straight and bringing his cup to his lips.

The silence is killing me. Harry is not talking and I haven't been able to sleep on the fucking plane because of what I've seen. I don't want him to be played or betrayed by someone who doesn't deserve his kindness and love! I would find ways to separate him from those kind of people as much as I can.

"They probably decided to catch up with each other." He finally spoke for what felt like years. I roll my eyes before sitting back.

"Yes, catching up with their previous feelings." I retort and Harry sighs shaking his head.

"Camille wouldn't cheat on me Kendall if that's what you're implying." He tells me and I sigh putting the cup down.

"Harry, as much as I don't want it to be true, it definitely is! I saw them, walking side by side, his arms around her and hers on him"

"Enough of it Kendall please."

"They even dressed up together in these fancy clothes and rode on a boat while sharing too much PDA in the public! I'm surprised there hasn't been any photos leaked!"

"How do you even know all of this? Were you stalking her?" Harry asks in disbelief and I felt taken aback. I frown, I can feel my temper rising.

"I just so happen to be close to them with Kim! They weren't the only ones who wanted to have a good time in Italy!" I defend myself and Harry pinches his nose as his back touches the edge of his sink.

"Kendall, I know you wouldn't lie to me and you only want the best for me but this is just ridiculous."

"Ridiculous?" I gasp out as I stood up and walk over to him.

"Ridiculous for telling you the truth?!" I point at him and he shakes his head.

"Kendall, you don't understand-" "No Harry! You don't understand! I'm trying to save you from a fucking shit hole relationship! Are you that blind?" I cut him off and Harry blinks a few times as we both fall silent.

I don't want to be caught up in their relationship but I've been in his shoes before and I'm so frustrated simply because he doesn't believe me. I love him more than all the problems we've had as a couple and I cannot let him be hurt by this woman who doesn't even deserve him. Why would she even cheat on this precious boy. I could never understand her reason and don't plan on doing so.

"I just want to have time to think about everything. I am not disregarding you at all, I just want to process it all. I really feel bombarded right now and I don't think I could ever function well if I don't have time for myself to just think it through." He finally speaks and I could see his eyes glossing. I know he believes me but then he's right. I came up to him telling him all these things in one second and I shouldn't have but I just had this adrenaline to do so.

"I... I'm sorry Harry. I didn't mean to and you can totally have all the time you need. I just wanted to tell you right away because I don't want it to go on even longer. I just... I will just leave." I tell him feeling a little bit embarrassed but also hurt? which I don't know where its coming from.

I turn around, slowly making my way out of the kitchen and out to the living room.

I just wished Harry would've called me back and ask me to stay and be with him.

But I guess we've grown apart now.
