Harry's P.O.V

December 12, 2016

It was currently 5:42 pm. 6 hours and 17 minutes left until it was Taylor's birthday. I thought about if I should text her now or wait until midnight. But what if she was sleeping later? I don't care I want her to know that I didn't sleep until she knew that I was the first one who said happy birthday. I know, I know, it sounds stupid and that I'm really desperate. But nobody knows what this woman really does to me. She has such a strong affect that I can't control. It's like I can just be myself when I'm with her. Despite all the rumors about me, I get to just be me, Harry Styles. Not "The Harry Styles" or "Harry who used to be from One Direction". It's just me.

I plugged in my headphones and started listening to some music. It didn't last very long until I turned it off because every love song sounded like Taylor. It all made it sound like it was about our relationship. So I gave up trying to listen to music. I decided to take a shower and try to clear my thoughts. Spoiler, it didn't work. Why does everything remind me of her? It was now 6:30 and I realized I still hadn't had dinner yet. I walked downstairs and looked inside my fridge and in the cabinets only to find that I needed to go grocery shopping badly. But I didn't want to go anywhere now so I just ordered a pizza. Again, Taylor popped into my mind. I was thinking over something in my head. Should I text her? Just to see how she's doing. Yes, you will be a man Harry. I grabbed my phone and found her contact. It still had the picture back from 2012 when we had spent her birthday in London. I paused. I didn't know what to say. I'll just start a regular conversation.

Harry: Hey xx.H

It has now been almost an hour and she still hadn't responded. Wow I'm such an idiot she probably doesn't want to talk to me. But then I heard my phone chime.

Taylor: Harry? Hey sorry I was caught up in the studio. :)

Harry: No worries I don't want to bug you. But you're working in the studio again? Any new songs about me? ;)

Taylor: Ha, ha, very funny but no. So did you actually need anything, or are you just gonna tease me?

Harry: Actually I just wanted to see how you were doing. xx

Taylor: Oh well I'm doing fine thanks for asking. Hbu?

I stared down at my phone. How was I doing? I could say the truth and tell her I miss her incredibly and wish we could try again. But I obviously couldn't say that now.

Harry: I'm doing good. Are you excited for your birthday?

Taylor: Idk I don't feel any different

Harry: That's normal I guess

Taylor: Hey sorry Harry, but I gotta run. My dad is calling me, but I'll see you tomorrow.

Harry: Alright I'll let you go then. Have a good evening Taylor. ;)

Taylor: Bye :)

I really wish we could have chatted longer. This was how it went yesterday. I started a conversation with her but then she had to go. I went to wash up since I was done with my pizza. I fixed my hair even though it was much shorter now. I'm still getting used to it, but I did like it. I went on Instagram and started scrolling through comments. I saw some were saying, "Dad come back", "Why are you being M.I.A again?" "#larryforlife" that pissed me off because that was just a joke and people took it way too far. (I have nothing against larries =)) I even saw one that said, "Harry have you heard Taylor's new song? You must be pissed." Wtf? What new song? I immediately went on Taylors page and saw that she had indeed released a new song, WITH ZAYN! Well that was very unexpected. I went to iTunes and bought the song because I wanted to listen to it right away. The first verse and chorus was just Zayn, but when it got to Taylor's part I nearly died.

I'm sitting eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind
Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life oh-oh
Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Up all night, all night and everyday
I gave you something, but you gave me nothing
What is happening to me?

Well shit. The lyrics are so deep. And her voice is incredible. Taylor and Zayn were now singing together and Taylor's vocals in the background sent a shiver down my back. It was now on to the bridge that they both shared.

Taylor: I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
Zayn: Baby, baby, I feel crazy
Taylor: I see you around in all these empty faces
Zayn: Up all night, all night and everyday
Taylor: I've been looking sad in all the nicest places
Zayn: Give me something, oh, but you say nothing
Taylor: Now I'm in a cab, I tell 'em where your place is
Both: What is happening to me?

I'll be damned that high note just gave me goosebumps. Her voice is like an angel. I am supportive of her and Zayn's song but I still can't help myself for feeling the tiniest bit jealous. I had always wanted to write with her or record a duet. But I would have to wait. I headed up to my room and turned on my t.v. I couldn't find anything good to watch so I just lay down. Not doing anything in particular I'm just relaxing. I guess I was trying to take in that tomorrow I was really gonna see Taylor. I couldn't wait. This is one of the happiest moments of my life because I needed her back into my life. She made me whole. Ever since she left there has been a missing piece inside of me and she is the only one who can fill it. I replayed our conversation over text again in my head and all our previous conversations over the past couple of months. She was always so hard to read. I could never tell if what she texted meant something or not. We had always been talking but sometimes the others felt more different. They felt more special. I was in over my head. I probably sounded like a crazy fan who is just expressing his love for Taylor. But I love Taylor, and I will never stop. I'm just a man in love.

My eyelids were becoming heavy. It was only 9:00. I wanted to wait. Wow I really sound crazy. But I don't care anymore, I know Taylor and I will be together again someday. I don't care how long it takes but someday we will be together. I will marry her. A little fast, I know, but as long as I get to spend the rest of my life with Taylor I'm happy. When I look at her all I can see is our future together.

She stole my heart, but I'll let her keep it. Once you find true love, you shouldn't expect to find it again. So hold on to it, hug it, embrace it, while you have it, because you will never find someone as great as that one person.
