Harry's POV:

I couldn't wait to go Christmas shopping with Riley. I already had her gift, but I love seeing her excited. Her eyes twinkles, and her nose scrunches. God, I love her.

"Harry, hurry up!" Riley whined. I chuckled - she was like a little kid.

I followed her through the doors of the mall. Riley gasped, her eyes wide with wonder.

The mall had ornaments hung from ceilings, and Christmas trees lined the entry-way.

"Look," I whispered to Riley. She looked up. 

"Mistletoe."

I leaned over and kissed her sweetly. I felt her smile under the kiss. 

"I love you," I said before sweeping her up in my arms.

"Harry!" She shrieked. "Put me down!" I ran through the mall with her in my arms, earning wierd glances from people. She slapped my arm.

I reluctantly put her down and she stuck her tongue out at me.

"Hazza, I'm going shopping now, okay? Meet me at Aldo's at two o'clock. Bye, love you." She kissed my cheek and skipped away.

I walked around aimlessly, looking in shop stores for something that would catch my eye.

After ten minutes of walking, I went to the food court and bought a coffee. Once I sat down, I felt someone's hand on my shoulder.

I glanced over my shoulder to find Niall's brother, Greg. I had met him once before and we really hit it off.

"Hey, Greg," I said. "Wanna sit down?"

Greg sneered and looked me in the face. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"You hurt Niall. And when someone hurts Niall, they have to suffer the concequences." He said quietly.

I rolled my eyes. "What're ya gonna do? Beat me up? Ahh," I said sarcastically.

"Stay away from Riley."

"Or what?" I challenged him.

"Or you might not wake up the next time you go to sleep." He said with a smirk.

"She's my fiance, I can't stay away from her." I argued.

"Look, kid." He grabbed my shirt in his fist. "You break off the engagement, she's go running to Niall, and we're all happy. Understand, pretty boy?" He asked. 

I gulped and nodded my head.

"Good." Greg stalked away and I laid my head down on the table.

I checked my watch.

Ugh, it was 1:30. I have to meet Riley soon.

What am I going to say?

Riley, I'm sorry but-

Too needy.

RIley, you know I love you. But when the time comes-

Too sappy.

Riley. We're just not right for each other.

But we are! We're perfect for each other, that's why we're getting married.

But, I can't let Riley just run off to Niall, that'd be even worse.

"Hey Harry," I heard a voice chirp from behind me. I turned around and saw RIley grinning.

She shook her bags. "I'm ready to go!" She said. I grimaced. This was going to be harder than I thought.

"Riley? I have something to tell you-" I started.

"Oh my gosh, Harry I forgot! I promised Perrie I would meet her Nando's! Sorry, Har. Can it wait for later?"

I nodded. She kissed me and ran off.

"I'll text you later!" She called as she became smaller and smaller.
