Violet [Harry Styles]

Chapter Sixteen

V I O L E T

"Because if you ever felt down, I am t-there to lift you up and make you feel b-beautiful." I was surprised by his words and they caused me a mini heart attack, and vibrations through my body.

He always made me feel these things I had never ever felt, or would even feel them with anyone. He was the only one who made me felt safety, felt how I was loved and beautiful.

"I don't know what to say really," I felt myself getting shy in a second, but I felt comfortable shy. It was an odd feeling for me, as cliche as it sounded. I did not think you could have those feelings with any friend, I knew that you can not feel things with them because they are just friends.

"V-Violet, why are you quiet?" He asked breaking the silence, I zoned out of my world and smiled at him.

"Nothing, I think I should go now," I said looking at the time and It was late. "It is late and dark."

"And beautiful night too." I nodded.

"Yeah, it is. Another amazing... Night." sighed at the end. It was amazing like the night we spent in the tree house. "Thank you."

"Thank you for spending it with me too." He stood up and stretched his arms to me, he offered his hand to lift me. I did not hesitate a second and took it. His jade eyes locked with my brown ones as I felt his face getting closer to mine and his hot breath on my face. 

"You have beautiful eyes," He whispered. 

"Harry?"

"Hmm?" I smiled.

"You are not stuttering a lot like you used to," I said changing the subject before it went somewhere else.

"Because I have been trying hard." I realized that we were still holding hands. "And, I have been following t-the things you taught me i-in our lessons."

"Good."

"Thank you." He did something unexpected. His lips went to my cheek for the first time he kissed it. To be honest, I liked feeling his lips on me and I was so happy. I was speechless, he looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"I am sorry if-"

"Good night, Harry." I gave him a smile and did not look back at him. Wow, he kissed me on the cheek and all I said was a good night? Way to go, Violet. But I also did not know what to say or do. I stopped my tracks and turned around, he was looking confused. "So, are you going to help me get down or what?" I asked him giggling. 

I did not want him to think he did something wrong or panic though, it was just a simple kiss. Not a big thing. I waited for him, he stepped closer smirking. He helped me to get down and I went to my room. If I was not that scared I would have gone to my room and got in. I entered my room and he was standing outside on the roof of my house this time.

"Thank you-" We both thanked each other at the same time, then laughed at the same time.

"I guess w-we should stop thanking each other then," Harry said, his eyes were looking so beautiful in the moonlight. I tried not to stare if I was being honest.

"Yes, we should." I nodded agreeing.

I did not want to sleep so our night would not end, there was something bugging me that I could not ignore. Harry noticed how quiet I got. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I am just not sleepy."

"Me neither. B-But it looks like there is something bothering you." I was like an opened book, he could read me that easily. But he was also smart, just by the look on my face he could tell. He reminded me of Jay, so smart. No wonder why they were best mates.

"Actually, yes." I played with the bracelets that I wore because I was so nervous to ask him, he kept eyeing every move I made.

"What is it?" He asked. "You can tell me anything."

"I know it is none of my business, but. . . Is there something. . . Um, between you and-"

"And Sarah?" I nodded as he chuckled.

"What?" 

"Do I smell jealousy?" I playfully hit him in his chest, making him laugh. 

"Me? What?! You wish, Styles. I never get jealous."

"Anyway, No. There i-is nothing between us." I nodded again feeling relieved. "What about you?" He crossed his arms against his chest and I blinked not understanding what he meant.

"What about me?"

"You and that guy from the party." He smirked. I really like it when he smirked, for the first time I did not find it creepy on him. I smirked back playing the same game he was playing.

"Oh, you mean Jake? Now, I smell jealousy too." 

"So, you admit that you were jealous." He chuckled.

"And, now you admit that you are jealous too?" We kept it quiet for a few seconds, but then laughed again at our stupid pointless conversation. I felt like we were drunk or went insane. But sometimes all we needed was a good laugh with a friend, we just wanted to run away from answers and people.

After we stopped laughing I looked at the time, and it was two in the morning. "It is late, I should go back to my room."

"Why?" I asked quickly but blushed at how desperate I sounded. I looked so needy and clingy. "I-I mean both of us can't sleep right now. Why don't you enter and spend the night with me, I will make us some tea."

"Hm, sounds like a g-good idea." I stepped aside as he entered my room by the window. I closed it after he got in and I hoped that we did not make a sound. It was like the movies, where the boy came at night and sneaked into the girl's room.

But I did not know what was the end of that movie I was in, at the moment.
