The New Direction - 1D Fanfiction

Chapter 20

Harry and I sat on his bed again later that evening. The lights were on since the sun had set at least on hour ago. He held my hands in his, I smiled at him. We were alone and I had pulled the curtains close that were on either window and shut the door behind us when we came in. 

"What's the matter Hailey?" He asked, his accent sounding really strong. 

"Well I've been thinking about that offer you made me earlier..." I admitted, biting my lip. 

"Oh really?" He said, making his voice sound incredibly smooth and sexy.

"Yes," I blushed a little. "I really do wanna have kids but maybe not just right now, I wouldn't mine being Mrs. Styles for now though." I winked at him.

"I can fix that." He grinned. 

"Oh really?" I commented back, trying to imitate him, and failing. 

"Yup." 

He carefully got up off the bed, opened the door and walked through the doorway. I twisted up my face in confusion, where the hell is he going? I thought. I remained on the bed, twiddling my thumbs. Waiting upon his return. 

**Harry's POV**

I walked down the hall, away from Hailey and I's room. I took short breaths, she had been thinking about my offer. I loved her and I really wanted to marry her, have a family with her. I was just having difficulty figuring out how to do so. My legs took me all the way to the mens lavitory, I stood in front of the mirror and looked myself in the eyes. I turned on the tap and filled my hands with water, after a few seconds I brought them up to my face and splashed the cool water onto my skin. 

"C'mon Harry you can do this! You've been waiting to do this since you first laid your eyes on her!" I yelled at myself, trying to sound like my football coach. 

"Hey Harry, what's up?" Niall asked as he walked out of the stall. 

I turned around and placed my hand on my chest. He had nearly given me a heart attack.

"Oh ya know... I want to propose to Hailey... Well after seeing Gabby's little girl and Lux again, and your wedding. I realized that I want to have a family of my own. I'm nineteen, turning twenty this year. I know I'm probably too young but hey you're only nineteen too." I rambled on. 

"So, what's stopping you? I didn't let the young age set me back, it just means I have longer to try to have Amanda mother my children." He smirked. 

"Oh Niall, you dirty minded Irish man." I chuckled.

"Yeah, I know." He grinned again. 

"Well, good luck with that."

"See ya around, gotta get back to the misses."

"See ya."

I turned back to the mirror as he left, I let out a heavy sigh. The curls on my forehead waved up as the air I had blown out reached them. A groan escaped my throat, I rested my head in my hands. Seconds later I threw my hands down, they hit my sides. I ran out of the lavitory and down the halls of the hospital. I knew how I was going to propose.

**Hailey's POV**

I had gotten up from the bed, at the moment I was pacing beside the bed. Harry had been gone for almost ten minutes. I still tried to figure out where he had gone and why he was gone so long. He wasn't allowed out of the hospital until tomorrow afternoon. I began to bite my thumb nail and picked up my pace a little. Moments later he ran through the doorway of our room. He doubled over and took in a few deep breaths. Slowly, I approached him and rested my palm on his shoulder. I bent over so my face was in line with his. 

"Harry, what the hell are you doing?" I asked.

"Sorry, had to go to the bathroom." He huffed. 

 "For ten minutes?"

"The uh.. Line... It was really long."

"Sure." I chuckled.

He carefully grabbed my hand and dragged me out of our room and down the halls of the hospital. I looked at him as he continued to drag me through the halls. We passed Amanda, she glanced at me and I shrugged my shoulders at her. Harry still insisted on dragging me through the halls, all of the hospital staff ignored us even though I was trying to get him to stop. Obviously they were in on whatever was going on or they just didn't care. I sighed and just went with it, I walked beside him as he lead us to this surprise destination. Harry pulled me through the front door of the hospital and out in to the parking lot. He dragged me all the way out to my JEEP and got in to the drivers' side. He rolled the window down when I didn't get in. 

"C'mon Hails, we're going on an adventure." He grinned evily at me. 

"Are you trying to rape me sir? Because that behaviour isn't going to get you married any time soon." I laughed as I got into the passengers' side. 

"Nah, it's not rape if you want it." He winked at me and started the JEEP. 

In seconds we were on the road driving away from the hospital. Neither Niall or Amanda knew where we were, I was sure they'd be fine. They had each other, the newly weds. I snickered at the thought. I would have never thought Amanda would get married before I did. Especially at the age of nineteen. I'm surprised her father wasn't in there kicking Niall's ass when Gabby brought them to the hospital, I shrugged it off and looked out my window wondering where the hell he was taking me. 

*****

 After about twenty minutes more of driving we finally reached our destination, wherever it was. I started taking off my seat belt and Harry was already on the other side of the car, he had the door open and was wating for me to get out. Blushing a little, I unclasped the seat belt and took his hand that he offered me. We walked through the dark place, I still couldn't tell where we were. I trusted Harry to not get us lost, I moved closer to him and held his hand tighter. He wrapped his arm around me in a reassuring way. We continued walking through wherever we were. I looked ahead and I swear I saw some lights or something not too far away. 

"Harry what's going on?" I asked, a little unsure. 

"You'll see just go with it." He whispered as he winked at me. 

I let out a heavy sigh and let him drag me towards the light up ahead. He had the cheekiest smile on his face, his dimples showed on his cheeks. The dimples I had fallen in love with the very first day we met. We finally reached the lights, it turned out to be a little gazebo with white christmas lights and candles. There were a few other men there with some instruments, ready to play. Harry approached the guitar and picked it up, he lead me over to a bench in the gazebo and we sat down. He stared at the guitar then at me. 

"I uh... Wrote a song a couple of years ago, I never thought it was any good but I kinda wanted you to hear it." He blushed 

"I'd love to Harry." I smiled. 

He began to strum a few chords then he sung.

"Now you are standing there, right in front of me, I hold on it's getting harder to breathe. All of a sudden these lights are blinding me, I never noticed how bright they would be. I saw in the corner, there is a photograph. No doubt in my mind, it's a picture of you. It lies there alone in its' bed of broken glass. This bed was never made for two. I'll keep my eyes, wide, open. I'll keep my arms, wide open. Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz I'm tired of feeling alone. Don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz I'm tired of feeling alone. I promised one day that i'll bring you back a star, I caught one and it burn a hole in my hand, oh. Seems like these days I watch you from afar. Just trying to make you understand. I'll keep my eyes, wide open, yeah. Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz i'm tired of feeling alone. Don't let me, don't let me go." he sang, then played a guitar solo. "Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz I'm tired of feeling alone. Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz i'm tired of feeling alone. Don't let me, don't let me go. 'cuz i'm tired of sleeping alone." He smiled at me as he finished the song. 

It was the most beautiful thing I had ever heard in my life. Tears streamed down my face as I pecked him on the lips, I smiled back at him. He placed the guitar down and looked me right in the eyes as he got down on one knee.
