Niall turns toward me.
"You wanna head back?" He asks glancing at his watch.
"It feels like we just got here." I tell him. He laughs and shakes his head.
"We've been sitting here for 2 hours." He chuckles. I look out over the street.
"I know." I smile and look up at the sky. "I just want to stay here forever."
"Me too." Niall says. I turn to look at him and our eyes lock. The world around us fades.
"Niall?" I whisper.
"What?"
"Do you think I'm overreacting about Harry?" I ask.
"No." Niall tells me moving closer and putting his hand on my back. I can't help myself. I move closer to him too. Niall presses his nose against mine. "Ready?" He asks. His lips press against mine. Fireworks. But not the same as Harry's. Harry. I quickly pull away.
"I'm so sorry Niall, but, Harry. I mean, I can't just-" I quickly get up from the bench. "I'm sorry." I walk away. Niall starts to speak behind me but quickly quiets himself. I break into a jog. I make it to the little antique shop Niall and I stopped by when I come to a halt. Harry tries to duck out of sight but I see him before he disappears into the store next door.
"Harry?" I ask once I'm inside the door. He's at the back of the store and I walk over quickly.
"I don't want to talk to you." He tells me turning away.
"Harry I'm so sorry." I tell him.
"Niall knew what I was doing. Why'd he kiss you?" Harry asks quietly.
"I don't know. It all happened so fast." I tell him. He turns toward me, his eyes puffy and the traces of tear marks dot his face. The sight makes me cry and I turn away.
"Callie." Harry whispers putting his arm around me. "Why'd you do it?"
"It was s-s-s-o romantic the-the-the-there." I stutter. "And I n-n-needed someone." I break into a new round of sobs. "I'm so s-s-s-sorry." Harry hugs me close and we march out of the store together. He hugs me all the way back to the hotel and drops me off at my room.
"I wish I could let this go, Cal." He tells me as I walk through the door which makes new tears start to flow.
