The Wish [Harry Styles]

09.

It had been a week since I told Mandy about my everything, a week since my promise to her. Looks like that promise would not be broken at all, or I would have my chance. I caught a cold and I was sick on the same day of my audition. 

That did not go as planned, it happened in the past, but it was three weeks before the audition. This was not a good sign, I was going anyway, but it was official that Simon was not going to choose me. Not even in a million years and god, I missed that song!

I needed a plan, I needed to know what I would do although I did not have much time. The audition was today and they were waiting for me downstairs. I was panicking so I called Mandy to come. After waiting for a bit until I heard her knocking on my door.

"Come in," I stood up and Mandy opened the door.

"What is wrong?" She entered my room and walked to me.

"I am sick." 

"I don't understand, your voice is fine. A bit rough, but fine." I shook my head then I coughed hard. Her eyes went slightly wide. "Damn! That is not good."

"Yes, it is not!" I ran my fingers through my hair as she sighed.

"Do not panic. Look, I'll tell Gemma or Anne to make you some tea, okay?" I nodded and sat on the bed again. She walked out of my room to tell them, then she came back and sat next to me.

"I am really scared."

"I told you, do not worry. Everything will be fine."

"I am not scared from that as much as I am scared of..." I paused and leaned my head in my hands. She put her hand on my shoulder and rubbed it gently.

"Scared of what?" She whispered. I sighed and after a few seconds of silence, I looked back at her.

"Of performing."

"But you are used to it. You did a lot of gigs, right?" I nodded my head. It was true, but what if this time I would not get in? Things changed and not like the past. What if this time my wish would not come true? I would be stuck here forever. "Then, what the heck are you afraid of?"

"What if this time my wish did not come true." She chuckled.

"Look, wishes do come true, but if you work hard for them. I won't lie, I do not know what will happen, but I know that you will make it somehow." I smiled and she smiled back.

Gemma knocked and opened the door, she was holding the tea cup in her hands. She handed me it and grinned. "I am excited for my little brother." I chuckled.

"I hope it goes well." I took a sip from the hot tea.

"I know it will," She said with a proud expression on her face. It made me happy, I was glad that they trusted me and they had faith in me.

My mom came and opened the door, she had a smile on her face. "Are you ready? We should go!" I finished my cup and stood up. I nodded and smiled at Mandy.

"Okay, so I will go now, and you call me when you are done." I caught her wrist before she could go. She frowned and gave me a confused look.

"I want you to come with me." She smiled and nodded.

I was so nervous on the way and when we arrived I got my number. I felt nervous and so excited at the same time, just like before. When it was my time they all hugged me and kissed my cheek. I went to Mandy and she was grinning.

"Do you think I will make it?" I asked her. She smiled and hugged me. Before she pulled away, she kissed my cheek.

"I know you will make it."

"Harry!" I heard someone shout behind the door, I ignored the shouting and turned my head into the pillow. "You idiot, I know you can hear me!"

"Leave me alone!" I screamed back.

"Mandy is with me."

"Liar!"

"Harry, please, let me in." I heard her sweet voice behind the door, begging for me to open. 

I disappeared after the audition. It did go well, everything was fine and everything was happening like before. Except the part where Simon put us all together, like what the hell? 

What hurt me the most was them not knowing me. I missed them so much and I wanted to hug them all and laugh like we used to, but that would be so damn creepy. I just wished for them all the luck and they did very well like before, but why this time Simon did not do the same?

We did not change a single thing, it all went like before. But he did not call us back, he just let us leave. What did it mean? I can not live without the boys, that can not happen!One direction will never be over, I will try the best I can if I just had faith.

I was so depressed for a week now, I did not eat much or talk to anyone, even Mandy. I thought that I would make it, but I did not this time.

I stood up and opened the door, I found Mandy was about to go downstairs. When she heard me open the door, she turned around and let out a deep breath. "Can we talk?" She asked me as I went inside letting the door open for her.

She closed it after she got in, I sat on my bed looking at the floor. I see her footsteps getting close to me, she stood there not saying a word. After a short silence, she coughed. I looked up at her and she looked exhausted and tired.

"Are you okay?" She nodded her head and smiled. Through her smile, she looked ill.

"Do not worry about me, worry about yourself first." She sat beside me. 

"You caught cold from me, didn't you?"

"Harry, you do not eat or talk, I am worried." I sighed. "I know that it hurt you and that you wanted to get back so bad. But maybe this meant something." 

"What? Like a sign?"

"Not very. I mean something might happen in the future." She gave me hope, I felt that this meant something. She meant something and I did not know what she really meant. 

I was not that sad though, I was with my family and I would never give up. 

"Harry, everything happen for a reason."
