"Babe who's that coming towards us?" I asked.
"It's... It's..." She started.
"Ryen, are you ok?" I asked.
The boy walked up to us.
He was a little taller than Ryen.
He had black hair that was kind of like mine, but didn't have curls, he had bright blue eyes and was dressed better than me.
"Ryen?" He asked.
Ryen stepped out from behind me.
"Austin?" She said.
His eyes brightened.
"Hi! It's so nice to see you again!" He said hugging her.
She hugged him back smiling.
I quickly stepped in between them.
I cleared my throat.
"Ryen... Who's this?" I asked trying to sound not as jealous as I felt.
"Oh Harry this is Austin, he's my ex." She said.
Austin held out his hand.
"Hi." He said.
I shook it.
I didn't like this guy. Something about him made me hate him.
When Casey and Louis walked over, Ryen introduced him to Casey.
I walked over by Louis.
"Who's that guy?" Louis asked.
"It's Ryen's ex... Can you do me a favor and keep an eye on him?" I asked.
Louis nodded.

(Ryen's POV)
When Harry came back he eyed Austin carefully.
"So Ryen, who's he?" Austin asked.
"This is my boyfriend Harry." I said modestly.
He nodded but then made a face.
He took my hand and pulled me over by the flowers.
Harry kept looking at us.
Austin started to whisper.
"Ryen, I know this is all at once, but I just want you to know that Harry styles... Is a womanizer." Austin said.
I stared at him blankly.
"Austin, why would you say something like that?" I asked.
"I know you've probably told each other you love each other but trust me, I know him. I'm friends with his sister Gemma. I know what he's done. He breaks girls hearts. Gemma and I recorded a video." Austin said whipping out his phone and showing me the clip.
It was him and... Another girl at a meet and greet.
He was eyeing all the girls there.
I saw him with a girl. She was blonde. He kissed her for about 30 seconds. Then he took her hands and then she was crying. When she walked away he went over to another girl... It was Rachel... The girl who he forgot about.
He held her hand and kissed her and hugged her... Just like what he did to me...
When the video was over I had tears.
I wiped them away.
No. I'm not gonna cry.
Austin looked sympathetic.
I hugged him, he hugged me back.
"Thanks for saving me from getting more used to Harry... He would've broken me even more." I said.
"No problem Ryen. If you want, I can pretend to be your boyfriend so that you can say that it just wasn't meant to be." Austin said.
I nodded and walked over to Harry trying not to cry.
He smiled.
"Hey Ryen, so where are we gonna go nex-
"I need to say something." I interrupted.
"Ok." He said.
"Some... Some relationships, aren't always what they seem." I said.
He looked at me in confusion.
"What do you mean?" He asked.
"What I'm trying to say is.... our relationship is a phone call... And right now... I'm ending it." I said with tears. I turned around and walked towards Austin.
I quickly glanced back and Harry had tears in his eyes. He called out for me but I didn't turn around.

(Harry's POV)
I was hurt. Bad.
What did I do??
I wanted to know. I wanted to change for that reason.
I needed Ryen.
She was the one who lit up my darkest moments... She was mine. I was hers. We had each other.
I thought I gave her all my love... But no. I needed to try harder.
I looked over and she was hugging Austin.
He held her close
I wanted to chase after her but I was to weak.
I began to cry harder.
Louis and Casey ran over to me.
"Harry what's wrong??" Casey asked.
"She's gone." I managed to get out.
"Who?" Louis asked.
"Ryen... He took her. She broke up with me and now Austin has the best girl in the world." I said.
I looked over at them.
It was late now.
"I'm gonna drive Casey home, ill be back." Louis said.
The stars glistened.
Ryen was still crying on Austin. Just like she did with me.
He laid her down and she seemed to be in less of a panic.
Seeing it made me die inside.
It just didn't feel right.
"Ryen..." I weakly said. I was to quiet. She didn't see me.
She was the one who saved me.
I walked over by the tree. I was so hurt... I...
I just sang.

Harry singing:
I'm broken...
Do you hear me?
I'm blinded,
cause you are everything I see
I'm dancing
Alone
I'm praying that your heart will just turn around
And as I walk up to your door
My head turns to face the floor
Cause I can't look you in the eyes and say
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight
It just don't feel right
Cause I can love you more than this
Yeah
When he lays you down I might just die inside
It just don't feel right
Cause I can love you more than this
Can love you more than this
If I'm louder
Would you see me
Would you lay down
In my arms and rescue me
Cause we are
The same
You save me
And when you leave it's gone again
And then I see you on the street
In his arms I get weak
My body fails I'm on my knees
Praying...
When he opened his arms and holds you close tonight
It just don't feel right
Cause I can love you more than this
Yeah
When he lays you down I might just die inside
It just don't feel right
Cause I can love you more than this
Yeah
I've never had the words to say
But now I'm asking you to stay
For a little while inside my arms
And as you close your eyes tonight
I pray that you will see the light
That's shinning from the stars above
When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight
It just won't feel right cause I can love you more than this
Yeah
When he lays you down I might just die inside
It just don't feel right cause I can love you more this
When he lays you down I might just die inside
It just don't feel right
Cause I can love you more than this
Can love you more than this...
