Sweet Melody (A Haylor Fanfiction)

Chapter 26

"I think this is okay," I glanced up and down at my reflection in the mirror which is placed in the bedroom. I am currently trying on my dress for an award show tonight, I picked a bateau dress that reaches the floor, appearing to be in a dark shade of red.

"Yes, it is and I need to go," Harry whines checking his phone. I'm betting the boys are complaining about Harry being late for their performance at New York today.

"But I think the skirt is a little too low-"

"Hey, it's fine, you look hot," He compliments me and I smile. We get out of the flat and paps are waiting outside. This is the moment.

*Flashback to call with Andrew earlier*

"I need you to act like he's going for a long time and that you're going to miss him," Andrew speaks clearly through the telephone line.

*End of Flashback*

When he steps in the car which is scheduled to drive off to the airport to catch his flight that's flying to New York, I grab the hem of the sleeve of his red plaid shirt and pull him in my arms. 

Cameras snap one by one in milliseconds and I mumble in his ear about how much I'm going to miss him. I meant some of them.

He pecked my cheeks gently and waves until the car is out of sight.

"Are you there yet?" I ask Selena through the telephone line as the entrance of the award show gets closer and the once-blur image of the celebrities who are posing on the red carpet is starting to get bigger and clearer.

"Sorry, I'll be there in a bit, I have hair problems." She says and hangs up on me. Her situation, I imagine, must be disastrous.

Once I step out of the car and feel the chilly night breeze pushing past my skin, I immediately straighten my back and smile, as usual. Cameras flare everywhere and flashes covered the view.

I finally am done with posing and I come in to see celebrities being interviewed.

"And here she is! Miss Taylor Swift!" I hear an interviewer's voice. I turn and face a guy wearing a proper suit and a cheeky bow tie. I head to him and I'm pretty sure that he's willing to interview me.

"Hi! How's it going?" I introduce myself as an intro to the interview as there is a 4 foot camera, creepily standing there to my left.

The interviewer and I blabber about my cat, Ed, Selena and there it comes. Harry.

"So I've seen you've been dating this One Direction cutie?" 

"Harry and yes, I am." I corrected him and admit at the same time.

"How's it going for you two?" He questions.

"It's going great! I'm very happy!" I try to say it as delightful as I can.

"Oh and I've heard rumors about Emma Ostilly and your fierce fight in the bathroom? Can you give us the details?" He asks. Shit.

"I- uh.. I'm-"

"Hey! There you are! Where've you been?"I hear Selena's voice. Thank god.

"Oh sorry! I need her help!" She says to the interviewer and drags me to the entrance of the award show arena.

"Thank you so much, you're a life-saver, Sel!" I thank her and she smiles and nods.

"I'm not going to win!" I say the last second the winner is going to be announced.

"Yes you are!" Selena and Ed says at the same time.

"No I'm n-"

"Taylor Swift!" They shout and I cover my mouth instinctively.

My song starts playing and that's the cue where I have to stand up and go retrieve the award.

I stand up and start walking to the stage, the pumping adrenaline pours all over my body as I rush up stage due to time limits of the show since it's on national television.

I hug the presenters and stand my ground in front of the microphone.

"First of all," I start. Through my speech, I thank everyone and the fans who supports me through this journey. But in the middle I was interrupted by something they had to show up on stage. I didn't' know what is happening at all. The lights dim and I'm scared. Could Kanye be coming up stage again?

But instead a video appears on the screen and I am dumbfounded just staring up at the video with... Harry's face on it.

They press play and I am beyond excited to know what is to happen or to hear in the upcoming video that is going to play in any second.

"Well hello darling, I'd like to congratulate you on the award you've done and I'm beyond happy for you!" He starts off. I can tell that he's not live but he's filmed in New York. Maybe an hour ago?

"I hope that your success continues along with our love, I also want you to know that you are my everything and I love you forever and ever," He says and the video stops with him blowing a kiss before giving me- everyone his cheeky bright smile. I chuckle as the lights start to reappear and tears rim at the roots of my eyes.

Everyone 'aw'd and I do the same. How come he's so different than when he's at home?

He can be cute, but at the same time, there's always a dark side to him. That's why I love him. I get off stage with the hugest smile I can't control.

*

"Hello?" I answer the phone to Andrew who's called for at least more than seven times.

"Hey! Great acting there! I knew I had to tell Harry not to tell you that we're filming the video! That was the best reaction!" He says right away. Oh.

"Keep up the good work, Harry's did amazing with that video!"

Ouch.

He hangs up the phone.

But he's right, how can he possibly mean that? I laugh at myself stupidly. I probably look retarded.

"Stupid me." I whisper to myself.

But maybe I want him to mean it after all. Ugh. How stupid can I get.
