Forced To Be With Him 24/7

Chapter 81

Alex's POV

Harry doesn't find me until half the crowd disappears and all my professors congratulate me among with lots of students I have never seen before. Their praises go along the lines of 'wow' to 'how the fuck did you do that'. I'm proud and a bitt shocked that I managed to pull something off like that.

"I didn't know you were this smart Lexy..." Alex rubs my head and pushes me a little as we start to walk across the lawn. The ceremony was held outside and the weather is nice so its refreshing to take small strolls.

"You were shocked you weren't valedictorian weren't you?" I ask as I shake my eyebrows and he laughs as he fixes his tie.

"Fuck yeah! I mean you don't even come to classes. Like how many times did you actually go to class. Three? Maybe four?" He asks as he laughs and I step on his foot with my heel earning myself a fake cry from pain.

"Did you install cameras in the halls? Or wait! Do you sleep with the professors?" He asks and I laugh as his phone starts to go off but he puts it on silent.

"Oh yes I am dating Harry Styles but I'd rather sleep with old and boring men." I say and he giggles as the mood turns down with the mention of Harry.

"Where is he by the way? I thought you said he was coming..." He says and leads me towards the main stage as I take long and slow steps, looking around to see Harry.

"He came late. I saw him from the stage. He'll be here any moment now." I say trying to convince myself as I search the crowd of crying parents and hundreds of people in graduation robes.

"Sure. Isn't this like the fifth time he blew you off?" He asks, not looking me in the eye.

"He works too you now. He has a busy schedule." I say as I try to defend Harry. I shouldn't be in need to be defending him.

"If I dated you, I would never leave your side." Alex says and I try to laugh it off but the reality sinks in.

I am in love with Harry and I know he has his own life but I feel left out sometimes. He barely called while in Dunkirk and well- without the guys I'd be devastated and alone.

Alex doesn't leave my side until we both see Harry walking towards me in his impeccable suit. Alex nods at Harry as he leaves my side, leaving me alone to greet my long lost lover.

"You're late." I tell him with a small smile as his hands find their way to my waist and he pulls me to him.

"You're beautiful." He tells me just before he kisses me, his wet lips pouring life into my soul. I've missed them so much...

"You missed me walk." I tell him when he lets me go but holds onto my hand as we slowly start to walk around.

I can see the paparazzi just outside the campus, flashing their cameras at us. I try to ignore them just like he is.

"I heard every word of your speech. I think your career should be in motivational speaking." He says and laughs and I join him, slowly enjoying this warm day and now that he is here, everything is better.

"I'm sorry. About being an asshole about everything." He finally admits and interlocks our fingers. I love him too much and the smug grin on his face makes my knees shake, totally blowing up my focus.

"I missed you." I say, pouting as he kisses my hand and pulls me closer to him now that we are a bit out of the crowd.

I am kind of scared by the reaction these PDA pics will fire but at the moment, I have missed Harry so much, I don't have it in me to push his hands off me.
