He looked at her from his spot by the fireplace at his mum’s place, the way she was laughing and talking with his mum. The way she got along so well with his other family members. She still takes his breathe away. Beside him his girlfriend, Camille, was saying something, but he couldn’t bring to himself to pay attention to her. Instead he spent whole night looking over her, but in a way that was not too suspicious.

Harry and Y/N were friends long before Harry entered the showbiz world, they’ve been best friends since they were in high school.

Y/N was there holding his hand tightly the day of his x-factor audition. Back in the days he just saw her as a friend, but with each passing years, more on his 1D tour days he realized how much he’s in love with you.

But he didn’t say anything. Reason? That cliche situation he didn’t want to ruin the friendship. He also thought she deserved someone who will always be with her, not someone who’s always touring. Not someone who’s always on the other side of the world majority of the year.

He thought he’s not good enough for her.

So what did he do? He tried to date others, he tried so hard for his feelings for her to fade away but unfortunately that didn’t happen.

The day his band decided for the hiatus, he was devastated. He knew it is for good and it’s a well deserved break, but that doesn’t mean he won’t get sad.That night he called Y/N, who lived just twenty minute drive from his place, he broke down into phone. He opened the door to his LA house to see his Y/N, his best friend at the doorstep, carrying his favorite snacks.

That’s how their friendship was, no matter how busy the other is, they always mange time to see the other one when they’re distressed.

There were many movie nights when she fell asleep cuddling him, he felt the most content. With the hiatus he had more free time, so he was willing to be in a relationship with the girl he always loved.

He was planning on how to say it, he plotted different scenarios in his mind and freaked out the last minute.

This time Harry was determined he will confess his feeling after he came back from his trip to Jamaica.

He even wrote a song about her. He named it Sweet Creature, he couldn’t wait for her to hear it.

When he finally came back from that well deserved trip. He called Y/N that day and asked her to meet at their favourite local cafe.

This time he will say it all, she will finally be his.

So when he reached there and saw Y/N’s beautiful face scrolling through her phone, he smiled to himself and went towards her.

“Oh so a phone is more important than me then?”

“Harry!” she looked up at him and broke into a huge grin then hugged him tightly, “ I missed you so much you idiot.”

“I missed you too petal,” he said giving her a kiss on the cheek.

“Oh I have so much to tell you,” she said before the waitress came over and took our order.

“What?” he chuckled, seeing her excitement.

“Guess who finally got a new man,” Y/N said smiling and Harry felt his heart breaking.

She found someone else. He was too late. And the rest of the conversation he felt himself getting lost. He faked a smile for her, he was happy but he wished it was him.

..

A week, he met Camille, at a party. She looked carefree and fun, and she was pretty and Harry was alone. So he took her home that night. He was too hurt to not have Y/N so he wasn’t thinking, he just wanted company, wanted to relief his sorrow.
