Harry's POV

"Why would you defend me like that?" I ask Cory.

"What was the point of her chosing you over me?' He half jokes.

"I don't know and I bet you that she won't take me back this time. I really messed up," I sigh.

"Sorry Harry. I wish I could tell you what she was thinking but frankly you know her the best out of anyone,' He reminds me.

"If I know her so well then why do I keep doing this to her. Wouldn't I want her to be happy?' I ask.

"Beats me Harry but you do know how to push her buttons," He mentions.

"I know. I mean I shouldn't make her this way really," I say.

"As I said before. Love makes you do reckless things and the more you love someone the more willing you are to do those reckless things for them," He tells me.

"Like I am willing to do anything to get her back," I reply.

"By lying and hurting her. Maybe you need to take a more realistic approach. Don't tell her you're going to do something and then don't do so," He responds.

"I should," I retort.

"But you also have to remember results don't happen over night. You need to take things with a grain of salt. Things were going so well when you did. But the moment you expect something in an impulse it all turns to hell. I may not know a lot about a lot of things but that was one thing I learned the hard way," Cory tells me.

"I am just so lost at this point. Taylor is my world but now I'm lost," I sigh.

"She'll come back. She always has, no matter what you've done to her," He reminds me.

"I want to make things better. I always try and some how manage to mess everything up," I say in frustration.

"It'll work out in the end Harry. That's what I have learned. Irene and Taylor may be out of my life but I know that's what fate wanted. Maybe fate wants Taylor to see she needs you more than she thinks and vise versa," He says.

But after another moment we hear a knock at the door. Everyone was most likely back. I get up off the couch and go to answer the door. Sure enough Gemma, Michelle, Niall, and Taylor walk back in.

"We got movies and Mcdonalds," Michelle announces.

"So I was wondering if we could talk now?" I ask Taylor as she walks in.

"I think we should when it's not Cory's time. We can later tonight," She says still brushing me off.

______________________________________

We were on our third movie already and everyone seemed to be asleep. I had watched Cory oogle my sister all night but the feeling was indeed mutual. They spent most of the movies talking and flirting with eachother. It actually put a smile on my face.

right now she was asleep in his lap and so was he. Michelle and Niall were asleep on the floor cuddled in a pile of blankets Cory had given them. Taylor was asleep on the opposite end of the other couch we shared. I watched her as she dozed off. I thought it might be best if I try to fall asleep but it was no use. I finally get up and walk to his sliding glass door. I opened it to the balcony quietly and let the two am morning air hit me.

I then hear the door open behind me. I was expecting it to be Gemma or Niall but it ended up being Taylor. I raise my eyebrow at her as she walks closer to me.

"I'm sorry," She apologizes.

"why?" I snap.

"Because I haven't given you a cance to talk. I mean I acted impulsively. I know you made a huge mistake. But haven't we all," She explains herself.

"Don't be sorry. I just want to make it up to you," I reply. It was actually a really warm night.

"You don't have to. All you need to do is make sure that you're here for me and this baby," she says harshly.

"I promise," I say sincerely. 

"Show me. I need you to prove that making these same mistakes over and over again will end. Not for me but to be fit for fatherhood," She gives me what feels like is conditions. 

'So you aren't into the whole engagement thing?' I ask her. 

"Did you want to marry me before I found this out?' She asks defensively. I guess I never really thought about that. 

"Of course. We just were earning eachother's trust..Well I was earning yours more than you were earning mine," I ramble. 

"So no Harry I will not marry you," She replies honestly.

I Look down at the ground in dissapointment. But hey I guess as long as she was speaking to me and wanted me to be in our child's life then I was getting somewhere and hopefully I can purpose this option again soon in the future.

"Well I promise you that I'll be there every step of the way," I tell her.

She then looks at the ground. I could hear her sniffle so I lift her head up by the chin with my two thin fingers. She looks up at me and I can see her face illuminated by the moonlight and the glow from the TV inside.

"Show me,' She whispers.

I then place my lips to hers and to my suprise she is the first to push into the kiss. I hold her body close to mine as we continue to move our lips together. I know that it was too early to move into this but my raw instincts didn't care. I needed the taste of Taylor and the pressure of her body. She was crying as we kissed because I could feel her tears drip onto my face.

"I love you," I say after breaking about.

But instead of a reply she just cries even harder. I hold her to my body as she sobs. She wraps her arms around my torso and continues to cry. I stay silent until I can only feel her trembling.

"Let's go back in and get some sleep," I mumble.

She just follows behind and then shuts the sliding door. I lay on the couch first and she finds a the right positon to cuddle against my body. I then feel myself fall into a deep sleep.

Woken only hours later by Taylor and her continuing nightmares.
