CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
Harry’s Point-of-View
“Hm. Are you flirting with me?” she snorted.
I smirked, “Do you want me to?”
“Nice try, mate. I’ll talk to you later, okay? Still have some laundry to do.”
“Alright, I’ll talk to you later, Lopez.” Not a moment too soon, the line finally went dead.
“I love you…” I whispered even though I knew she couldn’t hear me anymore.
I looked up to see Zayn with a playful smirk on his face. “I still love her, you know?”
I sighed, “I know… we love her both.”
“Yeah.” He trailed off. “But I love her more.”
“Not possible.” I snorted.
A lot has changed since the past 3 months. Me and Zayn were finally in good terms after our visit to Anna’s penthouse. After Anna had gone to London, all Zayn and I did was fight. We blamed each other for being the reason why she left. I felt sorry for Liam, though, for putting up with my brawls with Zayn.
Anna and I are back to being best friends, only now, I’m putting extra effort to finally making her mine. Although she wouldn’t budge, I was still determined. I know I may sound like a possessive freak but… if you even felt what I’m feeling? I know in my heart that she is truly the one.
“MATE!” Louis clapped on my face.
“He’s fantasizing about my Anna.” I threw the nearest pillow at Zayn’s face.
“Shut up!” I shot him a glare. "She's MY Anna."
“You sound like a love-sick, sissy girl.” Liam entered the room and sat next to me.
“Yeah, you would know.” I rolled my eyes as I unlocked my phone.
I clicked the Photos icon and started scrolling down on the selfies that Anna and I took together. There was this one on my 19th birthday. We were back at her house watching White Chicks when she took my phone and started taking photos of herself. There was a picture when we were both making a monkey’s face. The next photo was I was kissing her cheek while she made a kiss face to the camera.
And the last photo’s what got my full attention… we were both laughing while looking into each other’s eyes. She was cupping my left cheek while I had mine on her waist. The sun shined down on us making our hair look brown as ever. This was the picture we took on the day Austin came for Perrie. We were outside the patio, admiring the lake. That’s where everything went downhill for the both of us.
I shook the thought away and made the picture as my wallpaper.
“Let’s go, lads. Paul want’s us inside the stadium in 10 minutes.” Niall said, grabbing a water bottle and immediately made his way out of the bus.
I sighed, getting up and putting my phone back in my pocket.

“Her name is Noel… I had a dream about her… She rings my bell… I got gym class in half an hour… Oh how she rocks in Keds and tube socks… But she doesn’t know who I am… and she doesn’t give a damn about me…”
Finally, we get a week off from touring and I’m going to London tonight to see Anna.
“Cause I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby… I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby… Listen to Iron Maiden maybe with me… Oooh…”
