"What is coming is better than what is gone. Let this belief aim you in the direction you need to go."
"Harry, you can't just sing a song to me and pretend it makes everything better! Thats not how it works! You broke me, you cheated on me, you hurt me. All I ever did was love you and you were too blind to see that," I'm actually yelling at Harry. He takes a step toward me. "Baby, I fucked up, I am so unbelievably sorry," tears are pooling in his eyes. "Tell me what I can do to make you trust me again." He says, wiping his tears away.
A big part of me wants to forgive Harry and act like this never happened but inner me is saying to stand my ground and leave him because I deserve better. I'm torn.
"I deserved better from you of all people, Harry. You were my rock and you broke me. You took my heart and stomped on it." I push the thought out of my head saying to forgive him. I can't forgive him, not right now at least.
"I don't want to lose what we have." He tells me. "Yeah and you know what? Neither did I," I'm trying to keep my emotions under control but I'm getting close to breaking down.
"I need you, Austyn. I need you in my life. Stay with me, please?" He says clearing his throat. "Harry, before I can even begin to reconsider, I need some space," I feel a lump in my throat.
"So that's it, you're done trying and you're breaking up with me?" He's running his hands through his hair, the way he always does when he's upset.
"Harry, we just need to take a break and if by some chance, we're meant to be together, then we'll be together but for now, I need some time alone," I remove the "All My Love" necklace from around my neck and place it in Harry's hand.I'm suddenly alone as I watch him walk out of the door crying.
Six Months Later
"I'm almost ready, just finishing up now," I tell Sabrina as I put some jewelry on. I can't help but miss the necklace that Harry had bought for me. It went with everything.
Tonight, Sabrina and I were going out to a new music club called Broad Street and we were meeting Niall there, of course. He and Sabrina were still going strong. Liam and Louis were also going to be there. Its going to be nice to see them. I haven't really talked with them since Harry and I took our break. Come to think of it, Harry and I have only texted two or three times since that night. He had become a pretty big deal around the city lately. His music was taking off and he was doing alot of recording lately. Thats what I hear from Gemma anyways.
*********
"Hey ladies, you both look beautiful tonight," we're greeted by Liam when we walk into Broad Street. "You're looking pretty snazzy yourself." His hair had gotten thicker and he had a beard now. He wasn't the little baby face Lima Bean that I last saw. "Hey Lou!" I wrap him in a hug, I really missed him. After getting some drinks we all sit down at small circle table near the stage. Sabrina stops kissing on Niall long enough to ask Liam, "so where's Zayn? He's not here." I watched as Niall, Liam, and Louis shifted in their seats. "Zayn has recently decided to go his own way. He's living with his new girlfriend, Gigi in New York," I'm told by Louis. Before I could say something about Zayn moving, I'm interrupted by a man speaking into a microphone.
"Alright ladies and gentleman, this is the opening night of Broad Street and we have a few very special performances tonight from someone who's very talented, someone who has gained quite the popularity lately," I know he's talking about Harry. I wasn't expecting to see Harry tonight but I'm interested in seeing him perform. "everybody clap those hands for Harry Styles!" The packed club starts clapping, myself included. Harry walks on stage, holding a yellow guitar. "Good evening, everyone. I hope you're all doing well. this first song tonight is dedicated to someone very special. Hopefully she's listening right now," he didnt know I was here?? I listen as he starts strumming the guitar.
"Now you were standing there right in front of me
I hold on, it's getting harder to breathe
All of a sudden these lights are blinding me
I never noticed how bright they would two"I saw in the corner there is a photograph
No doubt in my mind it's a picture of you
It lies there alone in its bed of broken glass
This bed was never made for two"I watched as he sang beautifully.
"Don't let me
Don't let me
Don't let me go
'Cause I'm tired of feeling aloneDon't let me
Don't let me go
'Cause I'm tired of feeling alone"*****
I watched as Harry sang two more songs. One was called Kiwi and it was upbeat and it had a rock feel. The other one was called Sweet Creature and it was so beautiful.
"Thank you everyone, before I wrap up here, I've got one more song, if that's quite alright,"
"Same lips red, same eyes blue
Same white shirt, couple more tattoos
But it's not you and it's not me
Tastes so sweet, looks so real
Sounds like something that I used to feel
But I can't touch what I seeWe're not who we used to be
We're not who we used to be
We're just two ghosts standing in the place of you and me
Trying to remember how it feels to have a heartbeat,"I could feel the tears in my eyes.
"The fridge light washes this room white
Moon dances over your good side
This was all we used to need
Tongue-tied like we've never known
Telling those stories we already told
'Cause we don't say what we really mean
We're not who we used to be
We're not who we used to be
We're just two ghosts standing in the place of you and me
We're not who we used to be
We're not who we used to be
We're just two ghosts swimming in a glass half empty
Trying to remember how it feels to have a heartbeat."******
"Hi, Harry."
{A/N: oooh what do you think will happen? Will they get back together?
I hope it doesn't bother anyone when I put full songs in the chapters, I just feel like it fits well.
I hope you're all enjoying my story! 🙂
