Breathe

68

It's the night before I leave for California, and the night before the tour starts. So we're going to go get drunk... great logic. Harry hasn't wanted to talk about the fact I won't see him for almost a month I know he's scared, and I know he doesn't want me to go.

Dani, El and Tia barge into the room. "Ready to go?" Tia asks me. Tia and are growing apart, it's sad to say but I can't hide from it any longer.

I nod and straighten my shorts (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=105903686)

"Yep" I stand and grab hold of my jacket.

"How on earth do you make something so simple look so elegant?" Dani praises my outfit.

I shrug. I want to apologize for not being so talkative but the words aren't coming to mind. Frankly going to a club on my last night isn't want I want to be doing. We see the boys standing in the kitchen. Each girl goes to her boyfriend.

"Nina, looking stunning as always" Louis compliments me before grabbing hold of El.

I give him a small smile. I notice Harry is dressed more fancier than the others. Wearing all black and with a cream brown colored trench coat.

"You look amazing" He brings me close to him and whispers in my ear.

"You might be a little cold though" He looks me up and down.

"Why? Were just going to the club and home" My tone is dull and dead, like I haven't been living. I can't help it; I'm not ready to leave Harry for a month.

He smiles mischievously "Come" he extends his arm and I take his hand.

He leads me downstairs. Where are we going...? I look outside and see a horse with a carriage behind it. My stomach flips; Harry got us a horse drawn carriage... I look up at him; he's beaming with joy.

"Harry!" I say shocked my cheeks turn red.

"Nina" He copies my tone. I laugh and wrap my arms around his neck. He bends and snakes his arms around my waist.

"I love you so much" I whisper and I feel tears pushing through the back of my eyes.

His face turns into concern "Please no tears. I won't be able to handle it if you start crying love" He pushes his forehead against mine. I steady my breath and he connects his lips with mine. I take advantage of this, I wont be able to do it for a while.

"Let's go," I whispers and I nod. He helps me up onto the carriage. I should have listened to him when he said I'd be cold. He steps up himself and sits beside me. I lean into him and he without hesitation puts his arm around me. The carriage starts moving.

"Are you cold?" He rubs his hand along my thigh I shake my head

"I'm alright, why don't you want to talk about tomorrow?" I stare at him, green eyes against brown. He looks panicked.

"I don't know... we've been apart before" He looks at his feet.

"Never this long though" He adds sadly.

"We're going to be okay" I place my cold hand on his cheek.

"You and I are going to be fine" I say stronger than I think it.

"I'm scared something bad is going to happen to you" He sniffles.

"Like what baby? I'm with Wyatt, nothing bad is going to happen to me" I try to hide the pain in my voice. I don't want leaving tomorrow to be hard cause I wont be able to go through with it.

"What if you forget about me? Find another guy," He sounds exasperated, voice so full of hurt and worry that it kills me. His eyes are glossy I frown.
