Harry Styles' POV

"I'm an idiot," I say, running my hands through my hair. "I should've done something and I keep doing nothing." 

This is getting frustrating because I honestly do not even know what I'm doing. All I know is that I want to be near Victoria all the time. I want to make her laugh and smile and even make her roll her eyes at a cheeky comment I made. I want to have her near and hug her tightly and feel her lips on mine. I thought she was about to kiss me the other day at Greg's party but I guess she was just dancing. That moment keeps playing in my mind, my own daydreams adding what I wanted to happen next. She would've placed her lips on mine and we would move them slowly at first. We would've enjoyed this moment that I've waited for the longest time to happen, by indulging in each other. My hands would have rested, one on her waist and the other on her cheek. I would've pulled her close to me, wanting to get rid of any space between us. 

"You're not an idiot love, you just need to tell her how you feel," my mum's voice took me out of my daydreams. I sighed and plopped myself on the bed. We were about to leave for Orlando and I needed to clear my mind. I knew I couldn't talk to the boys about my situation, they're probably bored of me already. Besides, they would probably just be joking around and I need them to be serious about this. My mum was the one person I knew could listen to me wholeheartedly and would give me actual advice.

"It's not that easy Mum," I groaned and placed the phone on speaker, letting it rest right beside my ear while I placed my arm across my eyes. I heard a bit of shuffling on the other side and wondered what my mum was doing.

"Don't be a wuss and tell her how you feel!" I heard someone say from the distance. I let out a chuckle and smile.

"Is Gemma there with you?" I asked.

"Yeah she is," my mom said while Gemma responded at the same time,  "no, she's not."

I laughed and shook my head even though they can't see me.

"Hey Gem," I said in a sing song voice. 

"Hello H," she responded, closer to the phone. I guess she moved to be right beside Mum. 

"Harry, love, you're overthinking this too much. You'll feel much better after you tell her about your feelings," my mum continued and I nodded.

"But what if she doesn't like me?" I said, well knowing I sounded like an insecure, little boy.

"Why wouldn't she?" Mum asked and I groaned.

"Uh, maybe because he's quite arrogant and a little narcissistic?" Gem added and I could easily imagine the glare Mum must be giving her right now. She chuckled and continued, "I'm kidding! God, Harry you should've seen the look on Mum's face." I heard an ouch! and knew Mum had pinched her somewhere, making me laugh. "Just tell her how you feel kid, I'm sure she feels the same way."

"I think so too," Mum added. "You're a lovely young man and very handsome too," she said and I felt myself blushing.

"Thanks Mum, I guess I'll tell her then."

"Yes, do it soon, darling. Remember communication is important," she said and I sighed.

"Alright then, thanks," I stood up and went to the bathroom to check how I looked. "Bye Gem, love you" I tell her.

"Bye H, talk soon," Gemma said.

"Bye mummy I love you."

"Goodbye love, call more often! I miss you and I love you," she responded, making me chuckle.
