Wings ~ A Harry Styles Fanfiction

Chapter 16

Summer's P.O.V.

The doorbell to my apartment sounded, echoing throughout the hallways. I pushed myself off the cozy couch with my palms and made my way to the door.

"Hey, Sum," Mia shifted awkwardly in her position.

"Hey. Come on in," I replied motioning for her to enter.

"Is everything okay? I heard-" Mia broke down into fresh tears.

"It was horrible, Summer! I was so stupid! He wasn't even cheating and I-I blew it!" she wailed, brown eyes shining with fear and pain.

I lead her to the leather couch in the living room. Taking a seat, I began to explain.

"Mia, Sydney she.." I trailed off. "Sydney feels horrible, but maybe this happened for a reason?" My response came out on more of a questioning tone.

"Yeah," Mia froze. "Let's get ready."

Suddenly, the tears diminished. They became a thing of the past just like Mia's relationship had.

Mia stood up, brushing of her black jeans and wiping her tears with the back of her hand.

I pictured this dinner as a time to be thankful for what we had as a group of friends, but I guess it could also be interpreted as a dinner of silence and remembrance of the memories that some of us wish never occurred.

I groaned at my sudden thoughts and padded up the soft carpeted steps, following Mia's trail.

After Mia and I finished preparing ourselves, we took one last glance in my long mirror. A car horn beeped, signaling Harry and Niall's arrival. I saw Mia gulp out of the corner of my eye and felt a pang of guilt.

I remembered the last time I had to go through exactly what he had to experience tonight; complete and utter silence from your ex. Although, I've had worse memories at dinner in public. I thought, taking a stroll down memory lane.

"Sydney, Mia, Sum, Perrie, and Eleanor!" El finished by pointing at herself, giggling.

"You got all our names right!" Perrie joked.

"Hey do you guys want to sleep at my place tonight?" Mia interupted.

"Sure," echoed around the table and Mia glanced at me with a worried expression.

"I um I.."

"CAN. She would be delighted to stay at Mia's residence," Harry answered for me.

I shot him a glare as he rolled his eyes at me. I mouthed 'I hate you.' and he stuck out his tongue in responce.

"I ship Sarry," Sydney teased and I imediatly slapped her arm.

"He's just a friend," I defended, shrugging my shoulders.

"Who let you live in his house!" Perrie continued, letting out a laugh.

"I mean he probably doesn't even like me."

Mia cleared her throat, obviously remembering what Harry whispered into my ear that night when I was awake.

"Peaches! PEACHES!" I shouted.

Peaches was Mia and I's code word for danger. And boy, was I in need of some help.

I stood up from my chair sending it across the floor. The loud scraping noise caused confused faces to look in our direction. I bolted for the entrance and pushed open the glass door.

Harry and Mia ran after me, obviously confused and irritated by my behavior.

"I need to see a doctor," I paced around as pellets of cool, wet rain splattered across my face.

Harry and Mia exchanged worried looks between quick glances at me.

"Sum," Harry started. "You don't need to see a doctor."

"Yes I do Harry. There is something wrong with me!" I sobbed, falling to my knees. "I never sleep at night and if I do I have nightmares when I'm not in your arms. My rude behavior proves it and I can't function."

I sighed and let myself sink into the feeling of reality. I may never ever get better.

I began to think to myself. I did get better. Every day I inch closer to my doctor's goal.

I sighed and trailed behind Mia out to the driveway. I locked the front door behind me and entered the car o the passenger side.

Harry and Niall greeted me as Mia stayed mute. I honestly felt like a horrible friend for inviting her. Soon after we all left; me riding shotgun, Harry driving and Mia and Niall sitting in the back seat.
