The Boy Next Door (Harry Styles)

Chapter Two

--Harry's Pov--

" Harry "

" Harrrrreh "

" HARRY "

" What ?! I'm up " I wake up to Katie's voice. I fell asleep?

" So much for watching a movie, I fell asleep too " I notice my arms around Katie. I don't know if I should move it or keep it there since she hasn't gotten out of it. Maybe she didn't notice?

" Oh uh , sorry for falling asleep on you... "

" No, no it's fine Katie " I put on my cheesiest smile ever. She laughs. I've missed that laugh.

--Katie's Pov--

I didn't mean to fall asleep on Harry, but it just sort of happened. He smelt so good too. Is that kind of creepy for me to say? It's not like I'm saying it out loud though. It's barely even 3 and there's still a lot of the day left. And a lot more to come.

" Hey, wanna go somewhere? " thank god Harry broke the silence. It was getting weird.

" Yeah, where? "

" It's a surprise Katie! "

He opened the car door for me. Then got in the driver side, turn on the radio and started singing. I miss when he used to sing. He was really good at it, he used to sing to me through the phone or when he was over at night when I couldn't sleep. I didn't bother to call him anymore when the arguments started. His voice though. Since his normal voice was low, and raspy his singing was just perfect. I used to tell him that all the time and he would just blush.

"Harry, your singing has gotten a lot better. Even though it was already perfect." He just blushes, and continues to sing.

Five minutes later he parks the car. We're at the park. We used to always come here. He took me to the swings and started pushing me like we used to. We would stay out here for hours swinging, and talking. This would be our place. The only place no one could get to us, or anything. There wasn't a moment spent here that I regret, this was literally the best place ever.

It was nearly eight before we decided to go back to my place. I asked him to stay the night like old times. I missed him sleeping in my bed, holding me protectively. This all felt so right. Everything felt right. I didn't want to get my hopes up to high.. He seemed to always let them down. Always.

We watched a movie. I think it was Love Actually, Harry's favorite movie. He must've put it on when I went to the bathroom. He was already under the covers. I cuddled up to him like I always have. I just wish this moment would last forever. It was perfect in my eyes.

" Katie? "

" Hmm. " I say being half asleep

" How come you're giving me another chance? " I look up at him and just simply say that everyone deserves a second chance. And with that he nods going back to focusing on the movie.

I notice something now. Something I've pushed down long enough. And now it's coming out.. I love him. I'm not going to say anything about it to anyone.

--Katie's Dream--

" You're kidding me Katie!! Him? Why him! You could do so much better than that.. Prick! Do you know that? Why do you even like him?! " Harry shouts at me looking madder then ever. The happy in his green eyes gone. I can't read is face or anything. Tears are forming. I'm not gonna cry..

" Well answer me! "

" It's just a crush. God Harry! Why are you so mad about this? You tell me about girls and you DON'T see me acting like you are right now! Do you? No. That's what I thought. What's the fucking deal anyways?! Do you have a crush on me or something?! " I have no clue what just came out of my mouth.

" Do I? Hmm. NO! You're being so stupid. Crushes turn into something bigger. Do you know that? Hmm?! I just care about YOUR feelings but whatever. I won't care anymore. " Harry slams the door as he leaves. The fuck was that!? He was supposed to be my bestfriend! And never leave me. Right? Wrong. He just did! Over nothing! Now I'm crying. The tears coming faster and faster. My heart just broke..

--End Of Dream--

"KATIE!" Harry yells shaking me.

"What?!"

"Why are you crying and yelling out my name?"

"Oh.. I had a dream of.."

"Of?"

"The night you yelled at me and walked out.." It was silent for so long. That dream ruined everything. I haven't even been asleep long and that's what I get? This is the first time I have been happy and this happens?

"Katie, that will NEVER happen again, okay? Never ever. I love you Katie. Always remember that." He's never said that before.. It makes me feel good..

"I-I love you too.."

"Go back to sleep, love."

And with that, I fall asleep feeling a lot better.
