I wanna make love last. (Sequel-Harry Styles FanFic)

Chapter 13-Careful.

"I think we should talk about last night. May I come in?"

"Sure," I told her, letting her in. She didn't look happy, or excited. She had that look in her eyes she always had when she was disappointed. I guess she hasn't changed that much in four years either.

"Harry, I..."

"I shouldn't have left yesterday the way I did, I'm sorry Lexie," I interrupted her. She looked at me, and sighed.

"Why did you leave?," she asked. Should I tell her? I mean, we all know it's better to tell the truth, but I don't know what she'll think of me if I do. "Harry, tell me," she said again. She was staring at me, here never leaving mine. I took a deep breath and answered.

"I didn't feel like being there anymore. I was tired, Lexie, that's all."

"Harry, it may have been 4 years, but I still can read your face and I know when you're lying to me. You left because Andy was there, am I right?" I took my eyes off of her, and looked at the ground.

"You know I never liked him and I..."

"He's my friend, Harry."

"I know but... I just thought you guys had something, but it turns out you don't."

"Sorry?"

"Louis told me about Atwood and Abbey," I said, facing her again.

"If you knew that why didn't you call me straight away? Were you waiting for me to come here?"

"No, I wasn't. I was just thinking of the right things to say."

"Listen, if you didn't want to stay last night, that's alright. But you could've answered any of my calls at least."

"I was mad..."

"Mad? Why were you mad at me? Because I'm friends with Andy!?," she yelled.

"No! Mad at myself! Mad at the thought the he might be after you again, and he'd probably get you this time!"

"Get me? What am I to you, Harry? Some sort of award?"

"I didn't say that."

"It's what you made me understand."

"Lex," I said, coming closer to her. "Lex, please, let's not fight."

"I don't want to fight either, Harry. But you need to understand that I've been living my own life all these years. I met new people, I made new friends, and I got closer to Andy, and that is something you need to accept if you really want to give us another try," she said. By the look in her eyes, I could tell she was expecting a quick answer. A positive quick answer.

"I sure want to be back in your life, Lexie. I can't promise I'll be friends with Atwood, but I'll try my best to at least be able to get along."

"Thanks," she smiled, pulling me closer into a hug. Only God knows how much I've missed moments like this.

 "Want to watch a movie?," I asked, as she looked up at me smiling.

"I would, but I should get going. Cameron and I are meeting up early to work on the show."

"Oh...alright. See you soon I guess."

"Yes," she said, taking her purse and heading to the front door. "Harry," she added, turning around to face me. "It's been nice clearing this up a bit," she smiled.

"Same here," I smiled back.

Lexie's POV

So he was just jealous of Andy. Why can't he just leave him behind? For God's sake, he liked me for no longer than 3 or 4 months, and it's not like he had any chance with me back then. But Harry has always had something that made him hate Andy, for some odd and sort of unkown reason, although it was just jealousy. It always was.

|FLASHBACK. JANUARY 2013|

"C'mon, why can't you stay the rest of the day with me, Lex?," Harry asked, as I finished off my breakfast.

"Harry, I would, but I spent the night here, and spent the whole yesterday with you. I promised Andy and Cameron I'd have lunch with them today."

"But why?"

"The girls are out of town with their boyfriends. Summer may come a bit later though."

"But why do you have to go alone with two boys? Can't you just post pone it until at least one of the girls can go too?"

"Harry, I remind you Cameron is gay."

"But Atwood isn't. And I remind you he liked you not long ago."

"Harry, that happened almost a year ago, you can get over it," I smiled and pecked his lips, which seemed to relax him a bit.

"I can't get over the fact that he tried to get you! Damn Lexie, he kissed you!"

"Harry that was before we even started dating! And you know I didn't feel anything when he did!," I told him. "What is it, Harry? Don't you trust me?"

"I do, God knows I do. It's him who I don't trust."

"Harry, he's never ever tried anything since you and I got together, and you know it. We’re just friends.”

“I don’t know why you’re back to being friends with him.”

“Harry, don’t even start with that.”

“How can I not?”

“Harry, I understand you haven’t forgotten he kissed me when he liked me, but you would also kiss me whenever you got the chance, or don’t you remember Ed Sheeran’s concert? You weren’t my boyfriend either. And you can’t tell me who I have to be friends with and who I don’t.”

“Lex, I-,” he tried to speak but I cut him off.

“Harry, I’ve never told you not to hang out with your friends who are girls, and God knows I never will. Because if I do, it’s because I don’t trust you anymore. And I feel you don’t trust me right now..”

“I do Lexie, I swear I do, it’s just…”

“Harry, if you want this to actually go somewhere you’re going to have to trust me, and that also means trust me when I spend sometime with Andy. I understand you don’t want me to be alone with him, and I’ve never been alone with him.”

“I want to make this last, Lexie,” he said, pulling me closer to his body.

|END OF FLASHBACK|

That was pretty much the beginning of the end. Our end. And I wouldn’t be able to go through the same thing all over again. I’ll just have to be more careful this time.

Harry’s POV

We were almost on the edge of a fight. A fight that reminded me of the many fights we had four years ago, after Christmas, because of the same thing. Atwood. Why can’t I just get over him? He doesn’t like her anymore, she’s never liked him. Why should I care then? They’re just friends, she said so. And I believe her; deep inside I do. If I want Lexie back in my life, I’ll have to learn to get along with him. And it’s going to be hard. Because even though it wasn’t the reason of our break-up, it was one of them things that led us to it. And therefore, one of the reasons why I messed it all up.

I’ll just have to be more careful this time.
