JULY
Sarah POV

Harry and I have been dating for 5 months, an my mom still doesn't know about it because she is never around. Like half of my high school class is going to UCLA. I am really excited about college but really nervous. My best friend, Kylie, is going to UCLA too.

"What should I wear to the 4th of July party?" I ask Kylie. I hold out 2 outfits; one consisting of high waisted shorts and a white crop top, and the other a pair of light blue short shorts and red and white crop top.

"The second one. So you and Harry are pretty serious now?" She wiggles her perfect eyebrows.

"Yeah, I think I love him. I can't imagine a life without him. He is..the light I have been looking for, the light that David never provided." I tell her as I put on the outfit.

"He is good for you. I see the way he looks at you. He has a lot of life that I never noticed in him. You healed him." She says as she curls her hair.

You healed him. You healed him. This thought repeats in my head. "What do you mean I healed him?"

"He use to be really..angry at the world." Kylie says with some confusion in her words. "Then you bummed into him at that party and that was when the pieces fell into place. When he realized he loved you." The rest of the time it is really quiet. I braid pieces of my hair and pull them back with a bobby pin. I put on light makeup, with a bright red lipstick. I put on my white vans and we go out to Kylie's car.

..

The party is full by the time we get there. About everyone I know is there.

"Hey babe." I hear a deep husky accent say behind me. "You look hot."

I turn around and see Harry look handsome as ever. "Hey, you look amazing."

"Not as good as you." He teases and kisses me. "Do you want a drink?" He ask and I nod. He grabs my hand and we walk over to the kitchen. "I missed you. I know it's only been like a week but I can't go longer than that without you." He whispers in my ear. I grab his arm and pull him closer to me. I kiss his jaw, then his lips and pull his bottom lip in between mine. He moans and grabs my waist.

"I love you so much" I say into his mouth. He kisses my neck and works his way up to my lips.

"Let's dance." He says with excitement. He walks over to the dance floor and starts to dance the funniest dance I have ever seen, and he motions for me to walk over. I do and we are now laughing so hard at each other my stomach hurts. This guy walk up to Harry and gives him a bro hug. He has carmel colored eyes, and black hair that is combed perfectly up. "Hey what's up Harry."

"Oh, Zayn this is Sarah, she is my.."

"Girlfriend. Yeah I know she is all you talks about. Hi Sarah it's nice to meet you. You are literally the only thing on Harry's mind at baseball practice." He laughs and Harry's face is flushed with embarrassment. "Any ways,you both are going to UCLA right."

"Yeah"

"Cool, I hope I see you two before then. I'm out." And Zayn walks away.

"So that's your lifetime bestie." I tease Harry. "is what he said true. I'm all you talks bout at practice." He flushes again. "Aww Harry."

"Yeah..Its true. You are my life." And I hug him. And he bends down and kisses me hard. His tongue slips through my lips and we pull away to someone screaming. "Hey dick head!!" A brown hair boy screams to Harry.

"What the fuck do you want Liam?"

"Who is this, another little toy?" He mocks Harry. Harry pulls me behind him.

"She isn't my toy. She is my girlfriend." Harry raises his voice. There is definitely a wall of tension between them, and they have history.

"What ever you say dick." And rolls his eyes.

"Your a motherfucker! And you wonder why no one likes you. And who are you calling a dick your the biggest one I have ever met." Harry is now screaming in his face. "Stay the fuck away from me and Sarah."

"You need a life." Liam says. "You were the biggest dick in high school and you still are." And he surprises everyone by knocking Harry in the jaw. Harry stumbles back and hits a vase which shatters. Liam punches him hard on his windpipe and Harry makes the worst sound I have ever heard. Then his face turns purple and I can tell he can't breathe. Zayn knocks Liam to the ground and I run over to Harry.

"Harry, harry!" I try to remember CPR and do mouth to mouth. Tears are streaming down my face. "Harry don't leave me. Don't leave me. You are the light in my life you are the one thing that I look forward to seeing in the day." I sob. The CPR isn't working but I keep trying. I breath in and out, and push hard on his chest. He has to live, "Harry please stay for me I love you more than my own life. If I could I would give you my life, but I can't do that so you have to stay for me. For us." I am choking on the tears. My throat feels like it has fire in it. Watching my true love die is the worst thing on earth.

The ambulance shows up but I don't notice. Someone has to pry me off of Harry's limp body. Everything just shattered in front of my eyes, my life ripped apart in less than five minutes. Harry is possibly dead. How am I suppose to live? I can't. That's the answer.

I lay in the ground curled up in a ball on the ground where Harry laid. I have cuts all over but I don't care. The glass is stuck in my skin, and my hair is covered in it. I hear someone calling me but I cancel it out of mind. There is nothing that can cure this hole in my soul. Nothing. Unless they have a emerald eyed boy with curly brown hair and tattoos.

"Sarah baby, time to wake up." I hear Harry's raspy voice call from the other side of the bed. He gently shakes my shoulder. "We are going swimming, at the beach."

I smile as I look into his deep emeralds. "I love you" I say into his chest.

"I love you too baby. Now get changed we are going to Venice beach." He laughs in his beautiful voice. The sound is like a thousand Angels singing.

..

"Don't worry baby, I'm you guardian angel. Alway there to protect you."

..

"I love you more than breathing Sarah." Harry whispers into my ear.

..

"I can see a whole life behind those bright eyes of yours. I have liked you since the day I saw you swing that bat of yours. My mind whispered that's the one you need in your life. That's the one that will forever be yours." Him saying this makes my eyes water, and I lean in and kiss him on the lips. "I know that we just met but I want you to know that I need you in my life."

I need you too.
