Harry and I are just walking through the mall as a newly engaged couple. I'm so excited that I'm getting married in less then a year. Every time I look at my ring I can't but smile at it. Its gorgeous. Harry and I are at the mall because Harry wanted to look at wedding rings together and we wanted to make sure they fit and they were engraved. I've been thinking for the past week of what to put on Harry's. I mean, it has to be perfect. He is my perfect guy, we fit together so perfectly like...well like how were holding hands, our fingers intertwine into each others and our palms our as close at possible. Its like that, except figuratively. 
"Here we are" Harry says as we walk into the jewlery shop. I'm still a little nervous about what I'm going to do I've had a whole week to plan this and I can't think of a thing. 
"What are you going to put on my ring?" I ask trying to get an idea off of him. 
"You'll find out in 8 months" he winks and I sigh. Theres just no way I'm going to think of something. I don't want anything generic like "I love you" or "You're my everything" Blah. I want something thats only meant for him, something that can fit on a damn ring. I get out my phone and text my mom for help as Harry says he needs to go to the bathroom. 
Mom: Just look at him, you'll know then
Me: What are you some kind of love guru, how do I look at him and know. I've been looking at him for 5 years and I feel the same
Mom: Don't just look at him, study him. What makes you so attracted to him?
Me: Urgh, this better work. I put my phone in my back pocket and I sigh. A tap on my shoulder makes me turn around. 
"(Y/N)?" a man asks. 
"Umm yeah, thats my name" I say awkwardly. 
"(Y/N)...its me (Y/e/n)" he says like its obvious.
"(y/e/n)? Its been like what... 6 years? How have you been" I ask not caring. (y/e/n) was my boyfriend before I met Harry. I was like 17 in highschool and I thought I loved him. It was one of those crappy highschool romances that only lasted my senior year when he cheated on me with the highschool slut Patty. I think her actual highschool goal was to bang every guy before she graduated and I do believe she succeded but that was 6 years ago and I couldn't care less. 
"Well...to be honest I've been bad. I miss you like a lot." 
"(y/e/n) It has been 6 years, have you not moved on?" 
"No, not really. I still have pictures of you from highschool. So are you single?" 
"No actually, I'm enga-" 
"Engaged to me" Harry comes in and takes my hand in his pulling it up to show him the ring. 
"Wow, thats a big diamond." he huffs. 
"Yeah, I know." Harry says cockily. 
"How did you afford it on your douche bag salery" he pushes Harry and I get mad. 
"I'm not the douche bag here obviously. You are the one whos trying to get up on my finace" 
"No one is trying to get up on anyone. Can you please just leave" I ask (y/e/n)
"No, I need to teach someone a lesson" Harry raises his fist but I catch it. 
"Stop it, your going to make a scene and then we'll get kicked out" I tell Harry. He sighs and puts his hand down. 
"(y/e/n) you need to leave" I tell him. 
"No, (Y/n) I still love you and I always will. You have to understand that" 
"No I don't. I'm engaged, I have been with Harry for 5 years now and I plan to be with him till I'm on my death bed" 
"So then maybe-"
"No. Please, just leave before I ask them to call security." 
"But I love you" 
"How do I put this nicely...you know what screw it. (y/e/n), you are the most insignifact, irrelevant person in my entire life. I don't love you and I will never love you. I may have thought I loved you but I was young and stupid. You cheated on me so your the one to blame but it doesn't matter, I'm with Harry and I will be with Harry forever. So this is what you are going to do, you're going to walk out of this jewlery shop, and go find someone who you love the way I love Harry. You will stop obsessing over me, its been 6 years it was a highschool fling. You meant nothing and you mean nothing to me." I say more harshly then I meant to sound. He looks at me for a second and then leaves. The words I just said run through me really fast but my mind catches on something "The way I love Harry" I now know what I want engraved on his ring. "I have never loved anyone as much as I love you" 
"(Y/N)" Harry rubs my shoulder. 
"Yeah?" I ask. 
"Lets go pick out our rings" he kisses me.
