*Heather's POV*

I pick up the phone and call Chloe as fast as I can.

"Hello?" her voice rings through the phone as I take a deep breath.

"Harry admitted it. He said he slept with her, but I don't really know what to do. I want to give him another chance, but somthing inside me is telling me not to and I feel heartbroken that the man I love slept with another girl," I explain.

"Heather, you do know he doesn't like Julia anymore, right?" she asks through the phone.

"How do you know?" I ask.

"Harry was just on the phone with me saying how he misses you and that Julia cheated on him in the past and that he hates her now," she replies like it was completely obvious.

"Have you talked to Niall lately?" I ask and she just laughs.

"No. He's been too busy with the tour and Harry and I've been busy with my summer job and you," she responds.

"Oh. You work at the local pet store, right?" I ask realizing that was a stupid question. Of course she works there. She talks about it all the time. Well, she used to until the whole Harry situation came about. Now I feel bad. I have been so worried about myself that I didn't realize Chloe was worrying about me, too. I didn't realize that I was a factor in her not acting so carefree anymore.

"Yeah. We just got some new fish and they are so cool!" she exclaims through the phone. There is the carefree Chloe I know so well.

"How about we go to the mall tomorrow and we can just talk like old times before One Direction ever got involved," I suggest.

"Sure. You aren't afraid of Directioners and Directionators walking up to us and bothering us?" she asks and we both laugh.

"I think we can handle it. Most people won't recognize us anyway," I respond and she laughs,

"Yeah. I guess. Anyway, see you tomorrow!" she states and I smile.

"See you tomorrow," I echo her saying and hang up. I get ready for bed looking forward to tomorrow. I haven't seen Chloe in a couple days.

************

I get up out of bed and rush to the mall. This is the mall where I first met Harry and Chloe first met Niall. I remember hating them then and now I am absolutely in love with Harry Styles. At the moment, though I wish I'd never met him. None of this would've happened.

I see Chloe standing by the front of the mall and she waves to me. I run over to her and we hug. I'm being reunited with my friend. A couple days is a long time for us to be apart.

"Ok, we need to discuss this Harry issue," she says directly getting to the point.

"Yes, we do," I agree as we enter the mall.

"I think you should give him another chance. He seems so lost and broken without you," she states and I try to force a smile.

"I don't know, Chloe," I say.

"It wasn't his fault, Heather, and deep down inside I know you know that. You just have to keep telling yourself that," she explains and I look down at my feet.

"I guess I could try, but I just don't see the point if he's going to hurt me again. Julia is still out there, you know. And Rosie could have a trick up her sleeve as well. You know how stubborn, relentless, and cunning she is!" I exclaim and she shrugs.

"She might be cunning and clever when it comes to this stuff and Julia might still be around, but that's what a relationship is about. It's about trusting the other person and believing them. You truly love Harry, Heather," she explains and I nod, but I don't want to make a decision yet.

"Well, let's not talk about it and have a good day to ourselves," I suggest and we both laugh.

"All right," Chloe agrees.

We go around the mall looking in different stores and just having a great time. I love being able to spend time with especially with all this drama happening lately. I know all I have to do is forgive Harry and move on, but nothing will ever be the same between us, you know? Julia kissing Harry and sleeping with him will always be a part of the past no matter what.

We end up going back to my house afterwards, and on my porch I see a bouquet of flowers. The note says it's from Harry and it's pretty much an apology gift. I sigh and put the flowers in a vase and set the note on the coffee table in the living room. I know Harry still cares, but how do I know for a fact that he loves me?

A few hours go by of Chloe and me watching movies. We watched Mean Girls and The Notebook. Now it's her turn to pick.

"Um, how about we-" she is cut off by the doorbell.

I head over to the front door and open it. It's Harry.

Author's Note: sorry it wasn't that long :( I wanted the cliff hanger to be there *evil laughter* lol
