*Skylar’s POV*
My life seemed to fall into place… for now. Everyone seemed to have fallen asleep in my living room. I sit up, pulling my head away from Harry’s chest. I get up and walk towards my room when I feel a warm body walk behind me. I turn to see Harry giving me a dimpled-smile. I was too tired to ask him anything, so I continued to walk with him to my room. Once we got there, he plopped himself onto my bed. I let out a giggle. I soon lay down with my head onto his chest.
“Sky, remember the first time I was with you in the hospital?” Harry said with a shaky, unstable voice.
“Yeah?”
“If your mom d-died, who was it that I called and they told me they were gone for a week?”
“That was my aunt, Brooke. She’s watching over me. She gonna be back in two days.” I said, quietly.
There was a moment of silence as I felt a tear slip from my eyes to my cheek. Harry brushed it off, lightly, with his thumb and looked into my eyes. I did the same to him. His emerald green eyes were sparkling as the moonlight shined effortlessly on his face. Suddenly, I felt his arms wrap around me as I edged closer towards his chest. I laid my head down and smiled.
“Skylar, I know you didn’t believe me before but I really like you…” he started, as his voice started to shake. “Will you at least give me a chance, please?”
“Please.” He pleaded once more with his voice on the verge of cracking.
I really liked Harry but I was afraid of getting hurt. What’s a life without risks? I asked myself, silently. I guess I had to take the risk. “Yes. I’ll give you a chance.” Once I finally replied, he beamed his dimpled-smile that caused me to blush. Then he pressed his lips onto mine, giving me a warm feeling inside. Like sparks were flying. It felt as if we were the only people in the room… Even though we were. After he pulled away, I poked his obviously showing dimples and he let out a chuckle.
*The Next Day*
“Harry get up! We have a sound check today!” Niall yelled. I got up from my bed and once Niall saw me his face fell. I could tell he was hurt, more than before. I quickly jumped out of bed to shake Harry up. He used his hand to swat me away but I took advantaged of it and pulled him up.
“OW! It’s Saturday. Why are you making me get up?” He complained.
“You have a sound check, Niall said.” I said mocking his tone of voice.
“Will you come with me?” Harry pleaded.
“Sorry, can’t. Kaitlyn and I have plans.”
“Will you both at least come to our concert tonight?”
I nod and walk out of the room.
After I take a warm shower, I get dressed.
“You look beautiful, Sky.” Harry said.
I shake my head in disbelief. I was too insecure to believe any compliment I was given. I wasn’t fishing for compliments or attention. Just never believed it. My self esteem was too low.
“You do. I promise.” He said, trying to convince me. There was no point in arguing, so I nodded and walked away.
*Niall’s POV*
Seeing Skylar in Harry’s arms was a sickening thought. My fist clenched and my jaw tightened. I quickly soothed myself down, I didn’t want to do anything senseless that I would regret.
“Breakfast’s ready!” I heard Liam shout. I then returned back to my normal self to make sure none of the guys got suspicious.
“FOOD!” I yelled.
