Broken

Three little words

It had been five months since our first date. We had gone on other dates and of course Harry had made me feel special. There was something about the way he made me feel like I was the only girl in the world. The feeling he gave me was foreign it didn't matter what people said to me he was perfect. Now looking at it I regret not listening to those people. I don't regret ever being with him because he taught me many things. He taught me how to not care about what others thought about me. Not only did he teach me the ropes of life, he gave me the best gift a woman could ever ask for.

But thats a different story for another day.

Let's talk about the day the playboy himself said those three little words to me.

We were just lying there on his bed under the duvet cuddling and watching Love Actually. He turned me to face him and he lightly stroked my face with his thumb. His eyes bore into mine like they could see through me. He parted his lips and the nickname he had given me a couple months ago so easily slipeed out of his mouth in his husky and raspy voice. "Angel" At the sound of his voice a shiver went down my spine and I just smiled at him. He used one hand to rub circles on my back and the other to play with the ends of my hair. He closed his eyes and kissed my forehead lightly and looked me straight in the eye and said "do you know what you do to me? I don't know how you did it or when you did but you stole my heart." When I heard that my heart was beating at any unhealthy pace and my stomach erupted in butterflies. I couldn't believe what he had just said. He was Harry Styles, the play boy, the heart breaker, he never fell in love. I was absolutely speechless but he continued "I love the way you scrunch your nose when you're telling a lie, the crinkles at the corners of your eyes when you laugh to hard, you laugh its like a melody in my ears, the way you don't put much effort into getting ready but still look unbelievably beautiful, I love that you have to get on your tippy toes just to kiss me on the neck, I love how you get along with my mates, I love how you can sit and play video games with me all day, I love the way you put me first over anything, I love the way you take care of me when I'm sick, I love how you support me at all my concerts, I love that you trust me. I can go on all day about what I love about you but overall Karma I love you." I thought I was speechless before but now I couldn't even think straight. He just looked at me with love and admiration and waited for me to say something. Every second that passed his face looked even more worried. I couldn't leave him there waiting and worrying so I did all I could think of and I kissed him. I didn't just kiss him I put in all the love and passion I could into that kiss. I wanted him to know I loved him too. Minutes later we pulled apart and I gasped for air and I told him those three words he had just said to me, those three words he wanted to hear. Well they were more like four words. " I love you too" I will never forget that day. The day he confessed his love to me for the first time.
