Four Years (Finished)

Prologue

“Baby you…” I look up smiling to see Harry looking straight at me as he sings his solo for probably the trillionth time in his lifetime. Here I am sitting front row at a One Direction concert which doesn’t happen often because the boys are world renowned pop stars while I come from a little town in Cleveland, Ohio. But being mine and Harry’s four year anniversary he decided to fly me out for their biggest concert yet. A concert which just so happens to be in Paris the city of romance. Coincidence, I think not…

“That’s what makes you beautiful!” I listen as the crowd erupts with screams and “I love you’s” and some girls pulling up their shirts to flash the boys. You’d think by now they’d be used to it but the boys still get that “Oh no” face when a girl decides to flash her mammaries.

“Thank you guys so much for coming out tonight!” Harry smiles directly at me and the girls around me fight over who he smiled at. “This concert really means a lot to us and it its especially special to me due to the fact that Hailey is here.” he smiles and I pull my hands over my face trying to hide the dark pink tint now on my cheeks.

“Hailey” I hear my name being called and I turn around to see the boys’ bodyguard/ “babysitter”, Paul.

“Paul?” I tilt my head towards him attempting to hear what he is trying to say.

“Come with me.” he says extending his arm and I grab it, hesitantly, following him backstage.

“What is—” I start when suddenly I’m pushed out onto the stage. As my eyes adjust to the light I see all the boys grinning widely at me.

“There she is!” Harry says and I turn around to go backstage but Niall stands in my way.

“Nialler please let me through.” I say trying to get him to crack for my adorable puppy dog face.

“Sorry sweet cakes but I’m the master of that face and it doesn’t faze me. Now go!” he says pushing me into Harry’s arms.

“Nice catch.” I smile and he slowly helps me to my feet before turning back towards the crowd.

“Okay, so as you guys know this girl right here is my beautiful girlfriend Miss Hailey Cooper. And today just so happens to be our four year anniversary. And to tell you the truth she has made this the best four years of my life.” he says and I blush even harder as “aww’s” fill the crowd along with an occasional “eww” or “I should be your girlfriend”.

“She has been with me through everything. She’s been there through all my ups and downs. And I don’t know how I could get through life without her by my side. And I figured now would be more than a better time to do this. I was going to wait till Christmas but—” he starts handing his microphone to Lou and getting down on one knee. What is he doing?

“Hailey Marie Cooper, from the first time I laid eyes on you I knew that you were the one…” he says Harry please… “I love every single thing about you. The way you bite your nails when you’re nervous or twirl your hair when you’re bored. But most of all I love you because you love me for Harry Edward Milward Styles, a boy from Holmes Chapel. Not Harry Styles 1/5 of One Direction. You were there before the fame and continued to stick by my side through everything. Long distance relationships are hard but they aren’t impossible and I think we proved that. From the moment I laid my eyes on you I automatically knew you were the one. And I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I guess what I’m trying to say is—” he starts pulling out a small velvet black box. Oh no… “Hailey will you marry me?” he says opening the box to reveal a silver diamond ring. Oh my Harry… Before I realize what’s happening tears are flowing from my eyes but the problem is they aren’t tears of joy they’re tears of pain. I slowly bend down to Harry’s level and whisper one simple word in his ear “No.” I slowly lean up and take off leaving Harry on his knees in front of thousands of people. I just turned down a marriage proposal from the love of my life…
