Harry's POV

I drove up to Y/N's doorstep and hesitated before knocking on the door. I took a deep breath and mentally prepared myself, giving myself a pep talk before I see her pretty face again. I'm not going to stammer, I'm not going to stop talking before I get all my thoughts out, even if she stops me.

I bit my lips and knocked firmly on her wooden front door. Seconds passed but no one answered. I waited patiently and discreetly peeked at the curtains, because she's definitely the person who peeps out of them to see who it is. No movement from the curtains. I shifted my gaze back at the door. I waited for about a minute before knocking again, harder this time.

No reply. I sighed sadly, hanging my head down and leaning it on the door. I couldn't take the silence and even though I know she wasn't in- her empty driveway gave an obvious hint- I spoke to myself softly anyway.

"Y/N, I know you aren't listening.... I wonder where are you now? I hope you're safe and happy, wherever you are.... I miss you, a lot. Being apart just doesn't work for me, maybe it does for you. It's been 3 days 17 hours since we last seen each other, since the moment you stormed out of our flat because of our stupid fight." I said softly, to no one in particular, just pouring my heart of to myself. 

It felt good to release my thoughts and emotions like that, so I continued.

"I've been a real jerk, haven't I? An asshole even. I deserved your screaming, I deserved you leaving me like that. I shouldn't have taken my anger out on you, it was no excuse. I promised I wouldn't hurt you, I wouldn't let you cry and look what happened?"

"Baby, do you know how I suffered seeing you in that state? I didn't mean for the fight to go out of hand, I only wanted to release my day's tension. I was wrong, ever so wrong. Why hadn't I admit that sooner? I miss you, love. I miss your lovely smile, our stupid bicker and exchange of petty banter."

I paused, getting a lump on my throat. I recollected my emotions and continued talking to the non-living door. I've gone crazy, I know.

"I understand if you would never forgive me, baby. Because I can't even forgive myself for shouting at you like that and just letting you leave without stopping you. I know however many times I say sorry, it wouldn't be enough but that doesn't change or deter the fact that I love you."

"I'll give you more time, I understand if you need it. Just remember that I love you, a lot." I sighed sadly and added: "Doesn't change anything, does it?"

I almost turned around and slumped away when the front door suddenly opened.

My mouth hung open in shock as I saw my beautiful Y/N, red faced in front of me. She had one hand covering her mouth, keeping herself from making a sound as she cried and I knew, at that instant, she heard every single word I said.

She ran towards me and jumped into my arms. I embraced her gratefully, rubbing her back up and down, trying to soothe her. 

I muttered near her ears: "I thought you weren't home... Nevertheless, I'm glad you heard everything I just said. I'm serious and would like to ask for your forgiveness. I was a jerk, a inconsiderate, rude jerk and I don't have any excuse for that. I-"

Y/N placed a finger on my lips, preventing me from explaining anymore.

"I forgive you, Harry. I love you too, that's all that matters isn't it? Let's just forget about that stupid fight and focus on the love." She said softly, looking straight into my eyes with her watery, big eyes of hers.

"I love you." I confessed.

"I love you too, Harry. And to me, that's all that matters."
