4 imagines won the votes so I'll be finishing those off starting now. Also I know I said August 1st but life got in the way. Sorry.

If I'm being honest with myself it kind of hurts that (Y/N) chose Vanessa over me. I know I can't be upset with her though, I dumped her all those years ago and then reappeared after a decade. I can't expect her to come back to me.
As selfish as it sounds I wish Vanessa would have told her that she didn't love her so that (Y/N) would have picked me. Still though, I'll try my best to be happy for her.
As of right now I'm not even in New York, I flew back to England for now. Other than working on my new album I have nothing else going on anyways. I figured it would be best for me to get some distance from her.

"I miss you" I read the text notification on my phone from her. I miss her too and I miss the way we texted while I was there. She was so flirty and cute but then one day she just stopped and it was only friendly banter. That's when I finally realized she would never chose me because she has Vanessa. That night I bought tickets to fly back here.
She seemed sad but also a little relieved, probably that her fling was leaving the country so it would be easier on her transition back to Vanessa.
She posts on social media about her relationship almost daily and it hurts my heart to see. But I need to get over that and her, being sad about it, won't help me at all.

Your POV

"It's him." I say finally with tears falling down my cheeks. It never really felt true until I said it just now but hearing my say it out loud and finally tell someone, I know it's true.
Vanessa and I have only been back together a week but something has felt off about us, I thought it was her or just that we needed to let things fall back in to place but it's been me and it's been him. I love Vanessa, I know that much for certain but as for Harry, I can't take my mind of him, I get eager anytime I see his name on my phone or just in general. It feels my heart is going to pound out of chest.

"Then you need to tell Vanessa, you can't lead her on." Tom urges. He always been blunt with me, that's why I tell him everything.

"I know..." I wipe my tears off my cheek. I don't know why I'm crying right now, whether it's about my realization or the fact that I'm sad about losing Vanessa again, it doesn't matter. I need to tell Harry how I feel.

Harry's POV

The door bell goes off waking me up from my dead sleep. As soon as I'm conscious I realize there's a woman wrapped around my body so I politely turn her away from me and pull myself off the bed.
Once I'm in my silk robe I make my way to the door and open it to find (Y/N) standing in front of me. She looks like she's been crying but happy to see me.

"Harry...I'm sorry-did I wake you?" She questions, looking in to my living room and then back at me.

"Yes but...wait-why-how-when? (Y/N) you flew all the way here for me?" I finally ask.

"Yes. I know it's..." she trails off and then gains her own attention back. "I have something I need to tell you. And I didn't want to do it in person." She sighs. I watch her eyes again as they follow movement behind me.
I turn around and see the mysterious woman from my bed slowly locating items from around the room. I hear a scoff from (Y/N) and turn back around.
"Wow. I'm an idiot." She scoffs once more before turning around.

"(Y/N)! Wait!" I call after her as I begin to start running after her, my arm is pulled back.

"Thank you for last night stud." The woman purrs in my ear before following behind (Y/N). What just happened?

Your POV

I don't know why I broke it off with Vanessa before I went to Harry but it just seemed like the right thing to do. Why did I think that Harry would just jump in my arms and tell me he's madly in love with me too?
I mean, of course he'd have some woman over. He wouldn't be just waiting at the door for me like a lost puppy. I don't know what I expected honestly.
And now that the rush of seeing him has passed and the realization that I've lost both of the people I love in only 2 days has hit, I may start crying soon.
I flew all the way here just to be crushed. I should have called or texted him or something. Now I'll have to endure a long and sad flight home.
