Love, Hate, and Other Things

Epilogue

It's shocking how time flies by so fast. It's been about three years since Harry had asked me the question once again. Now, it was a beautiful spring day - a Saturday to be exact - and we would get to see two of our best friends joined together for the rest of their lives.

"Love, have you seen my green necktie?" Harry came into the room, and looked for his necktie.

"It should be in the closet drawer, Harry." I shouted through the bathroom door.

Harry and I had agreed to buy a house together, and just settle down. Of course, I had given my flat to Sheena and Niall, if they ever wanted to use it.

"Oh! There it is. I found it. Thanks!" I heard footsteps towards the door. "Can you tell me how it looks?"

I opened the bathroom door and saw Harry's tall figure tower over me. His suit made him look all mature, sophisticated, and sexy. His hair was put up and his curls were pushed back. Still pretty dapper for a 22 year old man.

"Stunning as ever, love." I smiled at him. "Zip me up?" I turned around and Harry's emerald eyes sparkled as he walked over to me. As he slowly brought the zipper up, his fingertips brushed against my back, causing me to shiver. He planted a surprise kiss at the back of my neck, making my knees buckle. He caught me in his arms and my eyes met his.

"We can always just skip the wedding, babe." He cheekily winked at me and as his lips descended upon mine, I pushed his face back with the back of my hand.

"We need to be there, because you are one of the best men." I slipped out of his arms and stood behind him. "So, get your arse moving, Styles." He pouted as he left the room.

I grabbed my lace white 3 inch heels and slipped them on, not even making a difference in my small height. I smoothed the creases of the dress in the mirror. I lifted my left hand and just stared at my empty ring finger. Like every other girl, I wanted to have a ring on that finger.

I sighed. "It's been three years, Maddie. How did you ever manage to get used to this?" I took a last glance in the mirror and grabbed my clutch, and started towards the door.

"Maddie? You ready?" I quickly shouted a response as I slowly walked down the spiral staircase. "Of course, my honey is as beautiful as ever."

I felt a heat creep onto my cheeks as I smiled at the ground. He still knew how to get to me.

"C'mon. We're gonna be late." He intertwined our fingers as we walked to the Range Rover.

Of course, Zayn and Perrie were both secretive about the wedding so that the Directioners wouldn't find out. It was held at their own backyard, and honestly? It was absolutely stunning.

There were two large tents just hanging over our heads and everything was just white. I guess it represented their love was eternal.

"Maddie! You're finally here!" Perrie hugged me tightly.

"Congratulations, Per. You're finally getting married." I said with much enthusiasm. She probably sensed that I was faking the enthusiasm so she patted my back.

"Maddie, don't feel left out. Harry's just waiting... I'm sure he wants to make it special. Okay?" I smiled as I nodded at her statement. I left her to chat with the guests and I went over to the other girls.

"Hey, girls! Long time no see..." I waved as I walked over. Katherine quickly introduced herself and in an instant we were all just gushing over Eleanor's engagement ring.

The boys were all proposing left and right. Liam had proposed to Danielle last year, Louis proposed to Eleanor last week, and Niall was still looking for his princess. And Harry? Well... Let's just say he's... Waiting?
