Not five minutes after we hang up her texts me ‘Your voice makes my heart melt. Missing you like crazy Leigh. Sweet dreams angel. .xx’ I smile at this text. “What’d Harry text you?” Gemma asks walking into the living room with me. I show her, “I can’t imagine how much he’s missing you.” “I can.” I whisper. She sits beside me and we decide on a movie. I text Harry back. ‘<3 Miss you baby. Wishing I was in your arms. I love you more than anything. .xx’ I grab my favorite blanket and fall asleep on the couch.
I wake up to Gemma making supper. “Let me help you.” I say “I’m fine. And I know you’re exhausted.” She responds I sit down at the bar and talk with her, Gemma and I have a lot of things in common. We start to eat and Harry texts. ‘Video chat 5 mins.’ I look up at Gemma “Go.” She says with a smile. I run into the bedroom, grabbing my laptop quickly and turning it on. Clicking on my online video chat, Harry pops up. There he is, curls perfectly placed, bright green eyes, smiling that beautiful smile.
“Hi” I say, “Hi.” He responds. I giggle, “Aren’t you adorable with your bed hair.” I laugh and try to hide it, “Don’t its cute babe.” He says, I leave it alone and we talk about his dinner, where he’s going tomorrow, how everything’s going. “I miss your touch Leigh.” “I miss your kisses.” I say back, pain swelling in my chest. I miss him more than anything. We sit in silence, eyes locked on each other, what I would give to have him here. I yawn, “Still tired?” He asks, I nod. “Lay down.” I do as he says, pulling the laptop beside me. He starts to sing, making my eyes shut and my lips smile. His voice, singing, flawless, always sends chills down my back, relaxing me completely. “I love your voice.” I say, he smiles and winks, he stops singing, “I love you Leigh-Ann, more than you’ll ever know. I’m so in love with you.” “Harry, I know how much you love me because I’m completely in love with you. If something happened and I lost you, I don’t know what I’d do. I’d never love again.” Tears welling up in my eyes. “That will never happen, you will never lose me. I promise. I will be your husband and you my wife. Forever.” I smile. “I love you.” “Do you know what I would give to hug you right now?” He laughs making me smile. “Sleep love. Call me when you wake up. If you need me, don’t be afraid to call.” I nod. “Sweet dream babe. I love you.” “I love you more.” I say, closing my eyes, Harry starts to sing me to sleep.
I dream, bad. Something happened to Harry on tour. They were all in a car accident; everyone made it, except him. I find him in the car; he looks at me, tells me that he loves me, and died in my arms.
I’m screaming. I wake myself up when I fall out of the bed, I had hit my head, cutting it but not too bad. Just my luck. I grab my phone and call Harry. No answer. Was my dream real? I grab my laptop; Harry wasn’t on my chat list. I start to cry into my pillow, my phone goes off, I can’t answer it. I still think Harry’s dead. It keeps going off. It’s Harry. “Leigh, Leigh baby, what’s wrong?” “Are you okay? Please tell me you are Harry.” “Of course I’m okay. Did you have a nightmare?” “Yeah.” “Who woke you?” I pause still crying really hard. “Leigh answer me.” “I did. I fell out of bed.” “Are you hurt?” “I don’t know.” I look over at my laptop, Harry’s on there. I see his eyes heavy with sleep, but with worry in them.
I look at him. “Shit.” He says. “What?” I ask, “Your cut, your forehead.” I touch it and feel warm blood pouring out of it. “I have horrible luck.” He snickers at me. “Go on back to sleep. You have a busy day tomorrow. I’m going to clean my cut. I love you.” “Leigh, I swear, if anything else happens you call me immediately. Please be careful. I love you doll.” I see Harry lay down and close his eyes.
I leave my laptop in the bedroom. I go into the bathroom, seeing the blood trickling down my face. I take a wash cloth and wet it, wiping all the blood off. I take a Band-Aid and close the wound. I tape it just to make sure it won’t open while I sleep. I decide to keep my nightmare a secret from Gemma, Harry knows and that’s it. I got back to bed, seeing Harry on the computer sound asleep I knew he was safe, as was I. I dozed off into a deep sleep.
