Finding My Soulmate

Chapter 28

Harry

"Wow, Harry. Are you sure? Like I said, it's a huge responsibility. With your career and everything, will you be able to handle it?" Gemma asks, stopping what she's doing so look at me. She looks concerned and I don't blame her. She sees me as a twenty one year old 'kid' who travels the world who she thinks isn't responsible. I know she's proud of me for becoming so successful doing what I love and I know she's seen how fast I've had to grow up but I can also see how some poor decisions in my past has made her weary about my ability to be a father.

"Gemma, I'm not the same person I was back when I was eighteen, hêll I'm not the same person I was a year ago. I'm ready for this. I really am. I'm so in love with Hazel and Chloe, they have become such a huge part of my life over the past couple weeks..."

"Two weeks?" Gemma gasps, shocked. "You have only been together for two weeks?"

"Yes.." I tell her tentatively, knowing she is going to flip.

"Harry Edward Styles! That is no time at all to be truly in love with someone! Are you that much of a hopeless romantic? Two weeks! I don't even know what to say! I'm shocked. Shocked Harry! You are sitting here talking about becoming a father to a little girl you just met two weeks ago, talking about being in love and talking about traveling together on tour and everything, how is two weeks an efficient amount of time to know whether or not Hazel is the one? I mean, the way you are talking and how your eyes got all daydreamy when talking about Hazel, it seems like you've been together for a long time and considering marriage. You aren't considering marriage are you? If you are, I swear to god I will slap you silly! I love you Harry, I really do, I just don't want to see you stuck in something that goes sour." She sighs, hands placed on her hips.

I had to keep from smiling, for someone who didn't know what to say she said an awful lot. She was very dramatic too, hands flying everywhere, her face getting red.

"Didn't know what to say, huh?" I laugh which caused a punch to the arm. So worth it.

"I'm serious Harry," she pouts.

"I know, Gem, I sorry. I'm serious too. How can I explain this..." I pause for a second, trying to figure out how i can explain to Gemma the way I feel about Hazel.

"It's like everything makes sense now. Like everything I've done up until this point has lead me to Hazel. All the heart ache and bad decisions, all the sleepless nights and worry about being alone forever has lead me to finding that one person who makes all of that worth it. I found the one Gem, I really have. I've found the girl I've been waiting for my whole life. She's the one I think about the second I wake up to the second I fall asleep. I want to be with her constantly. To make her laugh and smile and to make her happy. There's no going back for me, she's it. There's no one else in the world like her. She's good for me, she supports me and looks past all the fame and everything everyone says about me and sees the real me. I'm not talking about marriage, at least not now anyways, but in a few years I can see myself married to her, having more kids and settling down. Something you know I have wanted for a long time. I'm usually really good words but I can't seem to find the right ones to explain how I'm feeling," I chuckle.

"Oh you goober!" I look up at her with wide eyes, she was tears eyed, "that was absolutely the sweetest thing I've ever heard. No wonder all the girls swoon over you, you romantic devil you!" She chuckles, playfully smacking my arm, "but seriously though, I'm happy for you. I'm sorry for freaking out, I guess no one knows how you feel but yourself and I shouldn't have assumed you were nuts at jumping into something so fast." we both laugh and continue to set the table.

"You two done in here, supper is ready." My mom pokes her head around the corner and looks over our work.

"Yes," we both say in unison and laugh.
