Darkness

Chapter 3

Now I am 15 and Harry is 16.

Harry has gotten even better at singing and he did better with the girls too... If ya' know what I mean. Harry and i have still stuck together, he is a great protector but i feel like i am holding him back. I am the weight attached to his ankle keeping him from what he has the ability to do, he could be Mr. Popular but he has to defend and hang out with me all the time and it keeps him from meeting girls, going to parties, he gets invited but he know the people there are the cruel ones so he claims that he doesn't want to go. It makes me feel worse that he has to lie to me to make me feel better, like i don't know that he wants to see Taylor Stone on a weekend, every guy at school does. 

Harry had climbed the social ladder little by little that year, he got girlfriends, he got football playing friends, he didn't just have me. It made me happy to see harry this way, but it also made me sad because little by little it seemed as though i was losing my friend.Harry became more popular and I was the shy short girl that looks like she was suppose to be in 8th grade still because of my height. But few people figured out that once you get passed my shy-shell I am crazy, funny, and talkative. And Harry always knew that. But even harry, while he knew who i was inside had started to stop making efforts to see me during the day at class and soon it became short "hi"s and "whats up"s that would go un-answered. But after school, we went back to how it usually was, like school hadn't became awkward for us and our social status.

Harry is going to go on x-factor, he is trying to make his dream come true! I am so happy for him but I am going to miss him. I will miss his smile, his dimples, his curly hair, his voice, but mostly our friendship,my shoulder to cry on and my light at the end of every dark tunnel.

I said my last good bye to harry at the door, he was going to go to the studio now to make his dreams come true.

"Hi Harry, I am going to miss you so much!" I said as I squeezed him in a bear hug as if he were to turn to dust at any moment.

"I am going to miss you too!" He said returning the tight squeeze.

"If you make it through remember me okay?" I asked bursting into tears now, because my best friend was leaving me. I knew it was coming i felt it in my gut, but the realization of how soon it was going to happen never came into my mind.

"I will always and forever" he said having a few hot tears roll down his cheeks.

"Please do" I said still hugging him.

"I will text, call, and,or Facebook message you every day!" He said letting go to look at my face. " don't worry I will be back." He said while wiping away my tears.

"OK" I said weakly. I wanted to make him stay because i knew he would be gone for  a long time, and i didn't want to wait to see my friend go and make more friends, i didn't want to watch him slowly forget me.

"I have to go and once I get there I will call you" he said as a car honked for him to go.

"I will watch every episode and vote for you!" I called after him.

After that I went back into my room and started to cry and wonder... What if he does forget? What will happen to us? Will they make him change? Will he become famous? Will he not get set through? Will he make a new best friend? Will I get bullied now since Harry can't protect me?

Harry called and text me all through x-factor and he and his new band got in 3rd place of coarse! I always voted for him and the band with Niall, Zayn, Liam, and Louis. I always rooted for them. And then they became famous.... The calls and texts slowed, no more Facebook messages, just silence.
