Lying Eyes (1D One Shot)

  I stepped in front of the full length mirror we have. All that I could see was fat. I started to panic and tears streamed down my face. I started to run into our bedroom. Right as I started to run away he stepped out of the bathroom. I jumped into the warmth of our fluffy comforter. The tears now turned into silent sobs as I kept reminding myself of the ugly that was in the mirror. I hate it I work out everyday, eat very little and nothing goes the way I want it to. I feel the bed dipping underneath me before I feel arms wrap around my middle. I try not to cry harder. I don't want him to squeeze the fat that is there. I'm struggling to wiggle away I have no energy. I give in by cuddling into his chest still crying.

" why are you crying?" He asks me softly.

"I need to be perfect for you and for the fans. It's so damn hard to look the way I need to. I want this fat to go away."

"You have no fat. You are so skinny that I'm really worried about your health. It really hurts me that you think you need to look perfect for anyone. I love all your little things. My love is so strong for you. I didn't know it was possible to care for someone this much. There is something about the way you say my name, or the way you look at me that makes my stomach flutter with butterflies and my heart almost explodes."

He coos at me while he rubs the pads of his thumbs under my eyes catching tears that are falling.

"No! You don't see it do you? Look at this!"
Lifting up my shirt to reveal prominent ribs and hipbones.
"Come with me." He takes my hand and takes me to the mirror. I have my eyes closed as we approach it not wanting to be faced with the sight I saw earlier.

"Please open your eyes love, because I am going to stop those lying eyes of yours."

"Please don't make me do this." I whisper softly.

"I will stop if you tell me to but I want to say a few things. To show you all the things I love."

He says softly in my ear. His voice is so soothing I open my eyes because I am curious now. He stands behind me as he points at different parts of my body.

"Right here."
He says point to my stomach.

"This is where your spirit, and your amazing soul are held."

"Here," He points to my chest

"This is where you house the most beautiful and biggest heart that I know. This is the heart that I keep falling for everyday." He says as he snakes his arms around my waist.

"Now the other week a fan gave me some cake. You didn't want any, saying you weren't hungry. But then I heard what you mumbled afterwards. You said you were too fat. My heart stopped, and shattered. I never want you to think that way about yourself."

"I'm sorry that I disappointed you."

"Face me right now."

I turn around in his embrace, and he catches me off guard and kisses me. He lifts me off the ground so I am wrapped around him. I hear him whisper something in my ear

"You want to know when I love you the most?"

"When?"

"Every waking moment of everyday. I fall in love with you all over again. From your messy hair and makeup free face, to your adorable pout and little wiggle dance when something excites you. It all makes my heart melt and I can't help but love you more. You have not disappointed me and we are going to get through this and make you healthy again."

He crushed me into a back hug. His speech has gotten me in tears, and it finally hit me. I turned around, and the image in the mirror that has always taunted me was now smiling back at me. I saw what he saw and honestly I don't want to feel weak like this and I want to get better. Even though it might be hard I know that with him by my side I can get through this.

"Thank you" I said as I turned around to jump and koala bear hug him.

"For what love?"

"For helping me to clear my lying eyes."

"You're welcome darling."

"I love you Harry."

"I love you so much. I will never be able to put into words what you being in my life means to me."
