Cabin by the lake

Chapter 22

~harry's POV~

I walk down the familiar path I use to walk when I was a boy. I come here to clear my head, I've been coming here a lot lately. I finally get to the pound surrounded by trees with a rope tied to a tree, dangling right over the pound. I sit down on a rock right next to the pound. I look at the water and its almost like I see her. She still haunts every dream of mine.

"I miss her" I whisper to myself. The tears begin to swell in my eyes, I wipe them before the tears can fall. It doesn't help the pain though. It hurts to breath. After a few hours of sitting there thinking I decide to go home. I walk back to my car and head to my apartment. I park my car in the back hoping someone doesn't see me. when I get home I notice my door is open a little. part of me hopes when I walk in I will see Courtney but I know that won't happen. I decide just to go in and I find a friend. I walk over to my fair haired friend.

"hey ni" I say sitting next to him.

"harry where were ya?" he asks removing his eyes from the tv for seconds.

"thinking" I answer him honestly and he just sighs. the tv clicks off and niall looks at me in the eyes.

"Courtney?" he asks, hearing her name is almost worse then thinking it. I just nod. "come on mate, lets go!" niall says getting up and taking me with him. he brings me to the front of my building and we get in his car. right after I slam my door shut I see the paparazzi, they look annoying as ever. "god damn it!" niall yells as the paps run at us.

"this is why I park in the back" I mutter under my breath making niall roll his eyes. we get out of our spot and are stopped by the first red light.

"where are we going?" I ask niall as we pass by every bar I know. he doesn't answer and just keeps driving. we finally stop right out of the city. He pulls over to the side of the road. he looks at me with a serious tone.

"do you love her?" he asks me and I break down. The tears start coming like a never ending stream. "and you would do anything to get her back?" he questions

"yes! anything!" I sob and he continues to drive for a little long. when we stop I open my eyes. "the Airport?" I question him. he smiles at me

"go get her tiger!" he says hitting me and I just get out of the car and run into the airport.

"one ticket to the united states" I tell the lady when I get to the desk.

~Courtney's POV~

"hey Allison I have a ultra sound today can you bring me?" I ask her as I sit down at the table to eat a bowl of fruity pebbles.

"sorry I cant. is everything ok with the baby?" she asks me with only half he attention on me the other on her homework.

"yeah its just a check up." I tell her.

"maybe brady will bring you?" she says to me and him.

"sure honey!" he says smiling at her.

"no! I would rather drive myself then have him!" I say shocked that she would even offer that!

"come on court its not like I bite!" he says smiling at me.

"how do I know that you don't? and don't call me court!" I tell him, I get up and rinse out my bowl and put it in the dish washer. I then go to my room and pick up a book from my book case. I sit down and start reading.

When I get done I realize its already 2 and my appointment is at 3 pm. I go into the living room and It is dark, I turn on the light. I put the chair next to the counter so I can reach the oreos I hid on top of the cabinet. I try to reach for it and go on my tipy-toes. I can feel the chair moving under my feet, slipping.
