"(Y/f/n) (y/l/n)." Naomi called out.

I jumped up in excitement. I got picked to dance in the showcase. I couldn't believe it.

Cam gave me a hug as he was too picked to dance in the showcase.

After Naomi read the rest of the names, we were called to take a few pictures. Once we were done, I grabbed my bag and Cam came over to me.

"Some of the other dancers are going out to celebrate tonight. You want to join?" He asked me.

"I actually have plans." I told him.

"You and Torrance doing something?"

I shook my head, "Harry and I are hanging out tonight."

"You mean you and your ex?" Cam questioned.

"Well he and I sort of patched things up." I smiled.

It has been a few days since Harry and I got back together. Honestly, it felt like we never parted. I didn't realize how much I missed him up until now. He meant so much to me. I know that now.

"Are you sure that that's a good idea?"

"What are you implying?" I questioned.

Cam looked around to see if anyone was nearby, "I just don't think that you and Harry should be seeing each other. He hurt you, (y/n)."

I took a step back from him, "you don't know anything about our relationship."

He tried to touch my arm but I moved again, "Listen (y/n)--"

"No, you listen! You don't know anything about him, so stay out of it." I told him.

He was silent for a second, "I'm sorry."

I nodded a little, "It's fine. I'll see you later." I turned away from him and left before I would say something to him that I would regret.

I walked out of the elevator for the hotel the guys were staying in thirty minutes after my argument with Cam.

I didn't want him to ruin my hapiness. Before I knocked on Harry's hotel door, I took a deep breath and promised that I wouldn't let Cam's ignorance get the best of me.

I knocked and Harry opened the door within seconds.

I laughed a little, "Someone is eager to see me."

He pulled me into the room and wrapped his arms around me, "I haven't seen you all day."

I placed my hands on his broad shoulders, "You just saw me yesterday."

He smiled, "It's been far to long, love."

"Would you guys please stop with the mushiness and get your asses in here!" I heard Louis yell.

Harry grabbed my hand and led me to the living room where the other guys were.

They finally resolved all the problems they had. The guys started writing songs for their new album finally. I knew that the sooner they were finished, then they would have to go back home. I wished they wouldn't have to leave too soon.

"Guys, I have amazing news!" I said as I sat next to Harry.

"What is it?" Niall asked.

"I got chosen to dance in the showcase!" I smiled.

"Congratulations, babe. I knew you could do it!" Harry told me before he kissed my head.

"When is the showcase again?" Liam questioned.

"Three weeks. I'm going to have to be practicing a lot until then."

The guys all looked to Harry. Harry looked at me. I knew something was up.

"What?" I asked them.

Louis coughed a little, "Harry, you didn't tell her?"

I turned to Harry, "Tell me what?"

"Come with me." He grabbed my hand and brought me outside to his balcony. The sun was setting. I would've said how beautiful it was but I wondered what was about to come out of Harry's mouth.

"Please tell me what is going on." I said to him.

"We are leaving in a week."

I froze.

"I thought you guys were going to be here for a while?"

"We have other obligations at home." Harry said.

We just got together and now we were going to be separated.

"How long have you known?"

"They told me earlier today. I tried everything I could to be able to be here just a little bit longer." Harry said as he placed his hands on my waist.

I nodded, "I believe you. It's just that you can't blame me for being a little upset. The last time we were separated didn't go so well."

He kissed my forehead lightly, "We will get through this. Last time I was just scared, but now I know that we can get through anything, (y/n)."

Harry pulled me into his arms and I felt whole. He always made me feel safe.

"You're going to miss the showcase." I mumbled.

"I know. I'm so sorry. I know you'll do amazing. You are an awesome dancer." Harry smiled.

"You think so?" I asked.

He nodded, "You should show me some dance moves."

I laughed, "You?"

"Yeah, I bet I can be amazing too." Harry started moving around. He did the sprinkler dance. I couldn't stop laughing.

"Babe, please. You're awful." I laughed.

Harry laughed too, "I love you."

"Not as much as I love you."
