My leg kept bouncing up and down while he walked around my room trying to make sure he had everything. My stomach felt like all of my nerves were tied together in a thousand tiny tight knots. His hoodie sat on my lap, and I twisted some of the dark fabric on my fingers.
Harry plops down next to me, and places his hand on my knee. "Are you going to keep it?"
I look at him, a playful smile tugging at his lips. I nod, and he laughs, "Do me a favor, and don't get any pizza on it."
I hit him in his chest, and lean my head on his shoulder. He kisses the side of my head.
"How long until you have to leave?" I ask him breaking the silence.
"An hour or two," he says almost like he didn't want to say it.
Neither one of us say anything after that, we just sit there. I listen to him breathe, after a while he starts to sing in my ear.
"When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?"
I turn my body so my legs are draped over his lap, he pulls my closer to him, and smiles.
"Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up"
The way the words just fell out of his mouth made the knots in my stomach disappear.
"And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find
'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up"
This is all Matt's fault, if he wasn't so protective, Harry wouldn't have to leave, he'd have someone to stay so he wouldn't have to leave. If he would just stop being so whatever he is, he'd see that this is hurting me more than anything.
" I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am"
I smile at him, as I feel the tears building up in my eyes. He kisses my cheek before starting again.
"I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, still looking up.
Well, I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough enough
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it "
He pulled me closer to him if that was even possible. His hand rested in the middle of my back.
"I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up"
I was crying now, and he smiled a little, "Don't cry beautiful."
I pressed my forehead against his. His eyes flicker over my face before kissing me.
[Third Person Point Of View]
His hand rested on her thighs, as he hugged her tight.
Her mom stood at the door, the entire time. She heard everything. The way they talked, the way they laughed. She knew, that he loved her, and that she loved him.
It just now dawned on her that Harry could stay with them. They had the room, and Jess could really use the company, when she was away. But what about Matt.
She was snapped out of her thoughts by Harry's voice, "I've gotta go sweetheart."
Jess clung to him almost desperately, but she knew he had to go. She just couldn't let go.
[Harry's Point Of View]
Jess held my hand like she was holding onto her life.
She is a bigger part of my life than she'll ever know. Ever since the first day I met her.
Her eyes are always so bright, the tears that are threatening to spill over her eyes just make them brighter. She had innocence written all over her face. Her bottom lip was between her teeth as she stood in front of me.
Neither one of us said anything we just stood there, my hands rested on her waist, and she cried.
I wiped her tears away with my thumb, "Don't cry baby, please don't cry."
I don't want to leave her, but I have to. And it killed me.
I pressed my forehead against hers. Her mom stood in the door way, watching us, with a small smile. I kissed her, tears streamed down her face, as she mumbled "I love you." against my lips.
I slowly pull away from her, and wrap my arms around her. Her feet dangled off the ground a little as I lifted her up. Her arms around my neck, and I hummed in her ear,
"Well, I won't give up on us
God knows I'm tough enough
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it "
She just cried more, before I set her down and whispered, "I love you too."

A/N: This chapter is short and you'll get over it, but I can't handle this. I know he's been singing a lot, and in all honesty the first times he sang to her was because I was too lazy to actually write, but this time it was because I think it went with the moment and stuff.
