I'd Do Anything (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 11

*Holly's Pov*

I stand in the bathroom, looking at myself in the mirror. I have been doing this for two hours straight. I can't focus on anything else. All I can focus on is what I have to do. 

The bags under my eyes are very noticeable. I couldn't sleep last night. All I could do was think about what I had to do next. To get Harry to follow his dream. 

Thoughts flow through my mind, "What if this?" and "What if that?" but I knew my final decision. I didn't want to do this, but I knew I had to. 

I take a deep breath and step away from the mirror and head out to the living room to put my boots on. It had been raining all day and I was afraid it would never stop. I had to do this now, X Factor auditions were only a month away and Harry didn't have much time left to sign up.

I grab an umbrella from beside the front door and open it up and step outside into the pouring rain. The weather perfectly matched my mood right now. I get in my car and drive over to Harry's house. This was going to be the hardest thing ever. 

*Harry's Pov*

I had just gotten out of the shower and was drying my hair off when I hear a knock at the door. I walk out of the bathroom and open the door to see Holly standing there with an umbrella over her head, bags under her eyes, and tears coming out of her eyes. 

"Holly, whats wrong? Come in." I tell her.

"Harry, I can't. This will only take a second." She replies.

"What will only take a second?" I ask her.

"Harry, we can't do this anymore." she says sobbing. "I don't feel the same way about you, that you may feel about me. My feelings just aren't there for you anymore. I thought things could work out, but they just didn't and I have to move on. I have school to focus on and I just don't have time for this anymore." she pauses, tears still falling from her eyes. "I-I'm sorry." she stutters and turns and walks quickly down the street.

"Holly!" I call after her several times, but she doesn't stop. She keeps walking until I see her get in her car and drive away. 

I try to fight back the tears. I slam the door and turn and quickly punch a hole in the wall without even thinking about it. The tears start to spill from my eyes. 

Why? I asked myself this over and over. Did I do something wrong? The questions filled my head as to why this came at a sudden moment. As to what I did to make this happen. I was just so confused and I needed something to keep my mind off of it. 

*Holly's Pov*

I reach my house and get out of the car and slowly walk up to my front door. But before I can open the door to go inside, I collapse onto the wet ground, crying. 

I thought about his face, the way it looked when I told him I couldn't do it anymore. I thought about the way he was so concerned about me when I came to his door crying. I thought about the way he called my name when I ran down the street away from him. 

I also thought about the ways that I may have just bettered his life. I thought about going on the X Factor and making it all the way. I thought about him becoming a big singer, making millions of dollars. 

Overall, he was the best thing that had happened to me in a long time and I just let him go, because once again, I was looking out for him before myself.
