Fall.// h.s au Short Story

Chapter 33

It's been a month since Harry and I hooked up. To be honest, after that night I was 100% sure that I wasn't over him. Zayn and I are still together, of course I feel guilty but that night I was drunk and I knew it was a mistake.

As of now, El is helping me pack my bags. Yes, I am moving out, Too many memories here of me crying and Harry. Thankfully my mom and mich are letting me rent an apartment near the campus. It's really simple too, just how I like it.

"I think this is the last bag?" El questioned as she zipped the bag filled with my wires and all sorts. I wrap the tape around my box one more time and turn around to smile at her.

"Thank you honestly." I smile softly at her and dust my sweatpants off as I stand up to give her a big hug.

"I just I can't believe you're moving out!" she groans loudly in the crook of my neck while shaking us a bit. "You were the type of roommate everyone would die over." She pouts as she pulls away from me.

Until this day, I still feel guilty about not telling anybody about Harry and i. I stopped talking to him that's for sure. I heard he and Regan haven't broken up as well and he said he loved me.

"I love you el so much, I just wish you could move in with me or something." I hold her hands lightly as I explain.

"I know I know but I can't but don't be surprised if you see me at your doorstop." She giggles as I nod in response. As on cue Zayn walks in.

"Are these the remaining?" He smirks at me as he gestures to the boxes. I nod sweetly at him and take one glance of the empty side of the room and say goodbye.

Harry's pov (2 weeks later)

"Babe, I don't think your mom likes me that much." Regan pouts on my shoulder as we walk down the mall covered by security guards. It's hard to walk in this mall after what happened with Lauren and i.

"Princess, just chill with it for now, she'll get used to you." I offer her a small smile while we walk into another store.

Regan walks through the clothes and starts telling me some story but I can't help but think of Lauren. She has always been on my mind. I heard she's moving to her own apartment and I'm happy for her. She's been dating Zayn for two months; they will almost break my record with her.

"Harry, are you listening to me?" I quickly look at her and blink multiple times.

"Sorry bae, lost in thought." I shake my head and continue to walk with her. Suddenly I feel my phone vibrate. Louis. "Hey."

"Lauren still loves you Harry!" I stop walking as my heart starts beating fast.

"What are you talking about? Louis!" I step away from Regan and walk to the other side of the store.

"Zayn proposed to her in front of el and I and the other lads at the frat a couple minutes ago. She started crying saying shit how you made a big impact on her and she's sorry that she couldn't give her best to him. Dude, she said she loved him but she said she's still in love with you." I threw the expensive Gucci bags on the floor and bang my hand against the glass. I quickly hang up without saying bye and face Regan's confused face.

'I Know I'm a douche for doing this to you. For treating you as a rebound and you know it too. You'll probably wanna break my face after I tell you that the girl I love still loves me and I'm ready to fight for her." her monotone face scared me but suddenly she pouted then started crying.

"I knew you always loved her." She cried into her hands. " I saw your first reaction to her and Zayn in the kitchen that night. I'm sorry for wedging in between you guys. It was such a stupid idea to think I would finally get you and break marc's heart." I quickly run to her and give her a big hug.

My hair was so long that I could feel her fingertips gaze it. We need to get back to Pullman now.

~2 weeks after~ Lauren's POV

It's been lonely. I can't believe I confessed to all of my friends that I still loved Harry damn I never knew myself until I began to read his letters he wrote to me a week after our breakup. El cared about me so much that she hid them from me until im ready. We broke up because his ego was too big and I didn't give him a chance to explain himself. I still love Harry Styles. The kettle started to wheez so I quickly sat up from my couch to go to the stove to turn it off. Suddenly a knock came to the door.

"Harry." Oh shit, of course someone told him about what happened 2 weeks ago.

"Lauren, you know damn well why I'm here. I still fucking love you and I'm sorry I broke what we had but trust me baby I'm ready to cherish you just please!" he begins to cry in front of me while begging on his knees. His hair is so long now and he looks so much different but one thing has not changed. Our love.

"Harry, you always knew I loved you but I was fighting myself and I'm so sorry." He quickly stands up to kiss me.

"Boy do I miss this." Harry smiles softly at me.

The end! Yeah sorry got tired of this book so i just ended it cuz why not
