Love Can Be Found in the Darkest of Times

Chapter 9

Harry and I have not left each other's side since that day. It's been almost two weeks. I know two weeks isn't that long, but it has felt like an eternity! I know I can tell Harry anything, but...I can't bring myself to tell him about me being the reason for Natalie's death. A part of him will always love her and I don't want to loose him again.

"Wanna go for a drive?"

I push the negative thought to the back of my head.

"Sure!"

We get into the car and Harry turns the radio up,

"Have you ever heard this song?"

I listen to the lyrics,

"Viva La Vida, Coldplay?"

His smile widens and he turns it up even louder. Harry starts belting out the song and once the chorus starts, I join in too. We roll down all of the windows, so the wind can blow through the car. Harry looks over at me with a smirk and opens up the sunroof.

"Are you serious?!" I shout

Of course I am, why else would I open it up?!"

I step up, poking my head through the top. The wind blows my hair back and I feel free. I pull the rest of body up and balance my weight.

"Louder!"

The music grows and I start singing again.

"OH OH OHHH OH OH!"

I throw my hands up in the air

"OH OH OHHH OH OH!"

I laugh and look down at Harry. He smiles back and reaches his hand back to guide me down. The car stops in the driveway and I give Harry a smiley kiss.

"I'm going to take a shower, I'll be quick! Thank you for the ride!"

He laughs

"You better be quick!"

I run in and take the fastest shower I possibly can. I throw some clothes on and rush into the living room.

"I'm done Harry!"

Harry's hand is in a fist and he is looking at the ground.

"Harry?"

He looks up at me with tears in his eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me..."

my eyes start to swell up.

"Harry, I..."

"I TRUSTED YOU!"

I take a step back, he's never yelled at me before.

"I'm sorry!"

"YOU KNEW THE WHOLE TIME AND DIDN'T TELL ME!"

My chest starts heaving,

"listen..."

"NO, I THOUGHT IT WAS ME!"

A crumpled piece of paper falls from his hand and he storms out.

"HARRY! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"

The tears start rapidly falling as I kneel to the ground. I pick up the paper. I feel my hands start to tremble as I flatten it out. I read the top and it's the rest of Natalie's suicide note.....
