SAVE US (Harry Styles love story)

chapter 8

I awoke to Darcy jumping up and down on the mattress in front of me. “Mama!!!!! Mahhhh!!!! Wait up mama!!!” She squealed and I reached out to her and gripped her sides, causing her legs to give out and I pulled her on top of me as I placed my lips on her tiny arm and nibbled on it with my lips over my teeth.

“Nom nom nom!!!” I pretended and she screamed in laughter.

“Top dat mama!!!!” she yelled and I rolled over so she was caged under my larger body and I brought my hand to her tummy.

“What’s this?” I asked with a fake curious face as I placed my finger on a random place on her belly and she looked down and shrugged at me.

“I don’t know about you but we need to clean this off…….” I said seriously as I looked at her and she stared at me in confusion. “With a tickle!!!!!” I shouted and tickled her tummy until she was shrilling with laughter.

Darcy struggled under me as she giggled until she was sat up and laughing. “Uncee Zay hep me!!!!” she laughed and I stopped tickling to whip around quickly. Zayn stood in the doorway with a huge smile on his features. I rolled beside my baby on the huge bed and sat criss cross apple sauce as I tucked a stray strand of my bangs behind my ear.

“Uh hey there….” I said with a smile and he came towards me slowly, his body shadowing over mine as he stood beside the bed. His red shirt blending in with the walls of the room as the light shined through the open blinds. Zayn’s hand cupped under my jaw and he smiled again, causing me to follow suit. There was something in his eyes that I hadn’t seen in a while….happiness.

Zayn’s arms widened as he stayed in place. “C’mere…” he said and I hesitantly got up on my knees on the mattress and hugged him tight. Darcy then tiptoed over the mattress and leapt in to the middle of our random hug and we caught her in between us. Darcy’s chubby cheek was pressed up against Zayn’s chest and I giggled at her squooshed face. “Ya’ll are just too cute…” Zayn added with a small breathy chuckle, referring to me and my baby. “Harry’s here to see you Savannah..” Zayn ended and I shot backwards, Zayn catching Darcy as I jumped off the bed and ran out of the room. My feet slipped on a couple stairs as I ran down them before I finally landed at the bottom.

I took a sharp turn to the right to find a living area and Harry was sat on the love seat watching the TV. I stared at him for a while. I’m surprised Zayn let him in here. Did Zayn invite him? My eyes trailed over his relaxed body. White skinny jeans were stretched over his toned legs and his ramones t-shirt was spread over his chest and gathered on the top of his pelvis over his black and white checkered belt. Harry’s face was fixed on the TV in front of him and his fingers were intertwined in his lap. My wrist twitched slightly as I thought about his warm hands engulfing mine. I cleared my throat and Harry looked up at me. “Uhh….Hi….” I said slightly, my face looking towards the hardwood floor as I watched my bare legs that poked out from underneath my large sleep shirt.

“Erm….hello…” He tried and I looked up to meet his eyes with mine. A small smile was graced on to his features as his fingers separated from eachother and he patted at the seat beside him. You might be wondering why I was still only in a shirt but it was because I honestly didn’t care anymore. Harry and Zayn had seen me like this plenty of times anyways. My feet slowly brought my body towards my ex and I lowered on to the couch next to him, but not too close. “I came to erm….see you…” He stuttered before his fist was brought to his mouth as he coughed in to it, still focusing on the TV.

“Yea…” I stated, my head hanging, fingers pulling strands of hair behind my ears. “W-what did you..need?” I asked quietly and I felt his presence grow closer as he scooted towards me on the brown cushions.

“I know what I did is something you could never forgive someone for……” He started and my eyes shot up to see him looking at the floor, the TV now playing silently because he muted it seconds before. “You’ve no idea h-how bad I feel an…and how bad I…I have felt for the past few years….” He said, his voice cracking more with each word. “I loved Bre j-just like you guys did….it was all an accident….” He added shaking his head and I nodded at him. Harry’s eyes finally landed on mine, they were now glossy and full of depression.

“Come here…” I said as I opened my arms for him to come in to and he obeyed. Harry leaned in to me and placed his head where his ear was right over my heart and his back shook a little and I could tell he was crying. My hands rubbed small circles on the fabric of his shirt as he cried and I laid my chin in his curls like I did with my baby.

“S….Sa-savannah?” Harry choked.

“Yes harry?” I asked as I breathed in the memory of feeling him against me.

“I…I’m sorry….” He said as his back shook rapidly. “I’m so….*gasp* I’m so so sorry….” He said as his arms wrapped around my waist and hugged me tight. My fingers danced up his back and landed in his curls, twisting them and twirling them between my fingers in a comforting manner.

“I’m sorry too baby…I’m sorry I did this to you…” I whispered and he let go of me and looked at me through the blur of his tears in confusion. His thumbs were used to wipe away his tears before he looked at me again.

“What are you sorry for?” he asked quickly and my fingers absentmindedly drummed on my naked knee before I answered.

“For cheating of course….for leaving you when I should’ve faught to get you back….” I answered, tears falling from my eyes on accident. I then looked down to avid embarrassment.

I felt the warmth of Harry’s touch on my chin before my face was guided upward to look at him. “Don’t be sorry….” He sniffled before kissing the tears on each side of my face away. “If I was a better boyfriend I wouldn’t have pushed you away and I wouldn’t have left….” He added and I just nodded. I honestly didn’t want to talk about it anymore. “Can I call you mine again?” he asked with a smile and I nodded. A huge smile spread on his lips, dimples coming out of hiding for me to see.  “Promise we’ll try hard this time.” He said with a wink and I nodded again, the stupid smile still on my lips.

“Let me show you ..” I said with a small breathy giggle and he smiled, still a bit confused. I grabbed at his hand and placed it over my heart. “Do you feel that?” I asked and he answered yes. “That’s for you Harry Edward Styles….I live for you….” I said and he giggled before kissing my nose and focusing behind me. I turned around to see Zayn holding Darcy. “Hey there….” I said with a smile.
