Oblivion (Harry Styles)

Chapter 15

The most dreaded day of my entire life was finally here. The feeling was very bittersweet. I was excited for a new surrounding, new opportunities, and finishing my education. However, take that excited feeling, multiply it by a billion, and that amount would be how awful I felt about leaving Harry.

It was four in the morning and Harry was driving me to the airport. He was dressed in an oversized sweater and looked extremely tired. The car ride was quiet. Lots of things wanted to be said, but neither of us had the courage to say it. My heart sunk to my ass, when we reached the damn airport.

Harry parked his car, both of us unbuckling and getting out of the car. Tears began to brim my eyes as we walked inside. "I can't go much further," Harry speaks up.

"I know," I breath, looking at him. He sees my glassy eyes and wraps his arms around my body. I cry into his shoulder, as he rubs my back whispering, "shhh it's going to be okay," into my ear.

"I wish you could've come with me," I cry.

"I know, I know. I really want to," he continues to hold me in a strong embrace.

"I'm going to miss you so much. Maybe I shouldn't go," I shake my head. "Finishing school here won't be that bad," I nod.

"As nice as that sounds, I'm not going to let you do that. I'd never forgive you if you stayed here for me. I'm not worth that," he shakes his head.

"You are to me," I whisper, tears falling from my eyes. He sighs, brushing my hair behind my ear.

"I want you to have this," he reaches behind his neck, taking off the crucifix necklace he always wears. He takes my hand, placing it there and closing my hand.

"I can't," I shake my head. "This is way to special to you."

"Then I'm giving it to someone who is even more special. So, we should be okay," he smiles, lightly.

"I-"

"Just take it. If we lose touch, you can look at it and remember that I'm still here and when you get back in two years, I'll be waiting for you."

"Okay," I nod.

"You need to know a lot is going to change," he begins, "as much as I want everything to stay perfect and the same, it won't. Things are going to be different once you get back. I don't know how yet, it's too soon to tell, but you need to know that."

"I know," I breath.

"I lo-" he begins, "I'm going to miss you a lot Eden Armstrong."

"I'm going to miss you too Harry Styles."

He gives me one last hug, before I grab my suitcase and begin to walk away. Once I reach the lady that I'm supposed to give my ticket to, I stop and turn around, running back to him.

"Harry!" I call as he goes to open the door. He turns to look at me with furrowed eyebrows. I jump into his arms, wrapping my legs around his torso and pressing a messy kiss to his lips. He regains composure and holds me, kissing back strongly.

We break away, and he puts me down. I take his face in my hands, looking him in the eyes.

"I will see you in two years," I say.

"I got it. 24 months. 104 weeks. 730 days. 17,520 hours. 63,072,000 seconds."

"You can do all that math?" I laugh.

"Haha no," he chuckles, "we had to memorize it back when I was twelve." I laughed at his answer. Our laughing died down.

"Good-bye Harry."

"Good-bye Eden."

I took in a deep breath, before going back to my abandoned suit case. I handed the lady my ticket, she smiled sadly at me, scanning it. I looked back at Harry. He stood there, hands in his pockets, and a tired look covering his face.

I waved good-bye to him, smiling lightly. He waved and blew me a kiss. I cheekily pretended to catch it, like they do in romance novels and movies. We gave each other one last look. I took him in, painting a permanent picture of what he looked like. We both turned away, walking in separate directions. I knew the next few steps I took and the last look I got at England, was the last I'd remember. Harry was right. Everything was going to change.

A/N: So Eden left, Harry stayed. I wonder if they will ever be together again. Hm. Anyway, I can't believe this story is half over. I promise more exciting things are to come between Eden and Harry. Chapter 16 will be up by Thursday. Again I'm sorry I didn't get these chapters up on time. I promise the rest will be on schedule :) Btw: I live in America, so I'm going off of that time. Right now it's almost 7:00 at night on Tuesday, so you guys get a time frame. Have a good week fellow friends!!
