Love Her (the next part after 'Save Her')

Chapter 23- Until the Second I Die

Emma'a p.o.v.

I made it. I made it. My face flushed dark crimson whilst my lips left his and the confetti floated everywhere. "Bitch! Not you again!" Taylor yelled and the paparazzi started snapping photos. "Shut it, tramp!" Niall yelled from somewhere and the bickering started, but I wasn't paying attention. His eyes. His eyes were emerald green whilst he stared into my brown eyes.

"You don't know how much running and bicycling I did today." I smiled. "Oh that'll make a great story." He murmured. "OH MY GOSH! LOOK AT HARRY AND EMMA!" The girls who helped me get through the security yelled. I pulled them over (actually, they pulled me over) to Harry. "Harry, if it wasn't for these girls, I probably wouldn't have made it here on time." I smiled. "They deserve at least something."

"AUTOGRAPHS! PICTURES!" They cheered. Really? If I was a huge fan, I would've said 'Your hat!' or 'Your scarf!' Harry quickly signed a couple of their phones and glanced behind me. Taylor was storming towards us. "Emma... Lets go." He whispered. "No. That bitch ain't laying a finger on us." I growled.

"What did you do now, slut? Management wanted me with Harry but now that the kiss was in public, we can't have that!" She sneered. "Why can't you get over the fact that Harry will never be forever yours as long management is alive?" She smirked.

"Taylor, cut the crap. I just called them and they said nothing of that!" Liam yelled. "Of course! Because they don't want you to know!" She argued. "Look Taylor, I don't give a rat's ass about management. Go ahead and tell them that I am happy with a girl, not you, period." Harry fumed and grabbed my hand tugging me along with him.

****AT MY APARTMENT****

Chris was nowhere to be found. Good. Less explaining to do today. "Do you know how long I have waited for you to say 'I love you' to me when all you did was look away and decline every time I told you?" Harry smirked whilst we laid in bed.

"Too many times than I should've." I answered. "Do you love me really, Emma? Or did you just feel bad?" His face was hard like stone. "I loved you the second I hurled my coffee cup at you that day five years ago." I laughed and set my ear on his chest listening to his heart.

"I wanna take you out. Like on a real date." He suddenly blurt it out. His heartbeat thumped faster. "Gosh, am I that special that I can make The Harry Styles' heart race?" I joked. "Of course, Baby Doll. It's only you." My eyelids felt heavy. "Go to sleep, Emma. I'll be here in the morning." He whispered before everything went dark.

It was noon when I woke up. The sun was shining through my window and laid on the sheets. Wait. I was in New York? Everything from yesterday flashed in my head whilst I turned to face Harry. His usual scrunched eyebrows were now relaxed and his usual tight pressed lips were in a warm smile.

I felt like Edward Cullen to stare but his face! It was always the straight face, the poker face, or the face full of wonder. Peaceful Harry. That's new.

"Edward Cullen much?" He chuckled with his eyes still closed. "Nah. I like humans better." I shrugged. He opened his eyes. "I can get use to you here." He wrapped his arm around my waist. "Thank god we got tour in two months. We still got some time."

I giggled whilst he kissed my jaw. "Your muscles feel stiff." He murmured rubbing my arm. "How much running did you do?" I shrugged and counted. "Ran around the house to get things, ran to the car service, ran through the airport, missed the plane, booked one at nine, walked around the airport doing nothing, boarding the plane, rushing out of JFK airport then getting into a taxi, and then ran from Little Italy to Midtown and then picked a lock on a bike tied to a light post and cycled all the way to Times Square, and then got through the security guards, got attacked by a security guard, kicked him hard on the leg, pulled Taylor away from you, and yeah." I smiled at my rant.

"You ran. From Little Italy to Midtown." He gaped. "You stole a bike and wrestled with a security guard." He said slowly (well Harry says everything slowly but I mean like slow motion, slow)

"Don't say it like that! It makes me sound awesome." I blushed. "But you are." He reached to my neck and brought out the camera necklace. "You still have it." He smiled. "Of course I do. I-"

"Okay. I'm sick of listening to this conversation though the walls!" Chris busted in with Tom with her. "You guys must've had some real fun last night." He winked. I looked around and blushed. How did I notice that I was only in my tank top and undies? And Harry... Was only in his boxers?

Harry gave me a cheeky smile. So not only he strips himself when he sleeps but he strips anyone sharing a bed with him. How was Louis able to sleep next to him for their last tour (according to Shay) and not complain at all?

"Yep we had fun. You can just tell by pinching Emma's arm. Her muscles are stiff." Harry played along. I'm so dead. "And you see that small bruise? That's a love bite." He added. That wasn't true. You see, I got the bruise from the security guard attacking me....

"Okay! Out of bed you two! Emma, try some concealer for that hickey." Chris murmurs before she and Tom walk out. "Why did you lie to them? And why did you strip me when you slept?" I groaned. "Clothes are annoying." Harry whined. "I like to feel freeeeee!" He stuck his tongue out.

"Stop making out, guys and lets eat lunch!.... Or brunch to you!"

"I love you." Harry smiled at me. "That was random."

"Well I'm going to tell you I love you every single day until the second I die... Or get laryngitis. Screw that, I'm still gonna tell you that I love you even if I have laryngitis."
