Love Can Be Found in the Darkest of Times

Chapter 13

*Harry's POV*

I aimlessly scroll through my twitter feed as I wait for Louis's flight to land. It's taking forever. I keep glancing over at the time, but minutes barely pass between looks. I slip my phone back in my pocket and start thinking about things. My mind immediately goes to Grace, but I shake the thought. I haven't seen Louis in years...I don't want to make it all about Grace as soon as he gets here. Maybe some Starbucks will cheer me up. As I get to the front of the line, the order comes out naturally. I get the same thing every time. The cashier steps up,

"Mocha Cookie Crumble and Cotten Candy Frapp, for Harry?"

A wave of depression crashes down on me. I slowly make my over to the two drinks,

"Umm, thank you."

She gives me a weird look, but I don't care. I stand there, staring at the Cotten Candy Frapp...the drink Grace always gets. I squeeze my eyes shut. Do not cry Harry Styles, DO NOT. I swat at the drink and Frappuccino spills everywhere. I stare at the drink on the floor and the mess I've made. It's almost like my relationship with Grace...we were perfect, just like the cotton candy Frapp, but then I made a mess of things. I feel a hand on my shoulder and when I turn around, it's Louis.

"I was expecting a welcome party! Or at least a Harry!"

I force a smile and go in for a hug.

"Good to see you,"

we pull away and Louis grins.

"How's everything been with...you know who, are you feeling any better?"

My heart starts beating,

"I'm ok, everything's fine."

I don't want him to actually know how upset I am.

"You don't have to pretend everything's ok for me, Harry."

I look back over to the stain on the floor.

"There's no such thing as a perfect relationship. Don't fake it, I can tell you're in pain."

I tousle my hair and nod my head.

"The sooner we leave, the sooner we find her."

My lips curl up,

"There's that cheeky smile! C'mon Harry, lets go find your girl."

We both walk out and I never look back at the splattered Frappuccino. It's time to fix this mess.
