Aprils POV

"April?" She looks at me with horror written all over her face. "Britt." I sob, Britt pulls me in for a hug. "What happened?" She asks. It takes me a moment to gain my voice. "Do you mind if I come in?" I ask her. "Not at all." She gestures for me to sit on the couch. "Now are you going to tell me what happened to you." She said.

"Do you want the long version or the short?" I asked her. "I've got plenty of time, so the long one." I says with all seriousness. I began from when little Harry pasted away. Britt pulled me closer and hugged me tight while I cried and told her everything. "I had to interview Harry and his band, after the interview they left but Harry had come back. I told him everything. He called me harsh names, names he has already called me all those years ago." I sobbed harder, Harry calling me those things brought back all the memories of the bullying Harry gave me.

I continued on my story until it came to Ryan and how he beat me black and blue. "What the hell? Where the fuck is this wanker!" She exclaimed. "I left him, now I have no where to live. I'm so sorry for dumping all this on you. I'll go now, I just needed someone to talk to." I sobbed. "Oh no you don't, you're going to live with me." Britt said sternly. "I don't want to impose on you." I said simply. "You're not! Plus it will be good for the both of us. It can be one giant sleep over!" She laughed. "Like old times?" I giggled. "Exactly!" She said excitedly.

The next day, I went to work. I thought of a cover story about my cuts on my face and plastered a fake smile on. I said hello to Andrea and walked into my office. I placed all my papers on my desk, and began to work through interview after interviews. I organised the next issue to be released two days from now. The magazine isn't very popular, but with the one direction interview, I sure hope business picks up.

Just before lunch there was a knock on my office door. A delivery man popped his head in with a smile. "I'm sorry to disturb you but, you have a rather large delivery." He said. I nodded and walked out into the lobby to find several bunches of flowers. "There beautiful, who are they from?" I asked the delivery man. "I would have a clue, sorry ma'am." He said, while I sighed my life away on his note pad.

I took a bunch of flowers and put them on my desk. I bent down a little to smell the flowers when I discovered a card.

April,

I do hope you enjoy these. I know roses are your favourite. I'm incredibly sorry for last night, I know you won't forgive me so easily, however I will keep trying until I earn your forgiveness.

Love always,

Harry. Xx

Like hell I was going to forgive him this easily. I'm glad he knows that. It's going to take him a lot for him to earn my forgiveness. Never have I ever felt so worthless until last night. He made me feel like I wasn't worthy of life.

'Love always'

What is that all about?

I walked down to the cafeteria to grab some lunch when I was knocked off my feet. "I'm sorry, love." I know that voice. That's the voice of the one and only Harry freaking styles.

He held out his hand expecting me to take it. However I on the other hand had my own way up. "What do you want Harry?" I snapped. "I came to apologise personally." He said. "I got your bunches of flowers, wasn't that enough?" I grunted. "So you got them then." He said. "Of course I got them. Now you've already apologised, now you may go." I snapped once again. Harry flinched and stepped back.

"Okay." Was all he said before he turned his back and began to walk away. "Wait, no! I will not leave. April, I came to apologise in person. I came to make it up to you. That is exactly what I will do!" Harry snapped back.

Harry's POV

She aggravated me so much to the point I wanted to pull my own hair out. I came to apologise to her in person. No matter how many times she tells me to leave, no how angry she gets. I will apologise and I will earn her forgiveness.

She walked away and sat at a table in the cafeteria. I quickly followed behind her and sat down at the same table. "April, I didn't mean anything I said last night. I was angry and I was hurt." I said honestly. I know no matter how angry and hurt I was, she was hurt more than I.

"Do you think you can just send me flowers and come apologise to me and everything will be all cookies and cream?" April snapped.

I sighed. "I'm not perfect April. I know you're angry and hurt now. No, I don't think it will all be 'cookies and cream' but I'm trying! Okay! I'm trying to fix things. You want to know why? April, you want to know why I'm trying so damn hard?" I paused and took a breath.

"ITS BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. APRIL ROSE I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. The cafeteria was full of people all their heads turned to April and I. My little speech earned a round of claps.

"I love you. I never stopped loving you. I never will stop loving you. You are my one and only, there has only ever been you. I will spend the rest of my days trying to get you to forgive me if that's what it takes, because you are worth it. You are worth the chase." I continued.

She has tears in her eyes, I knew I hurt her. I never knew I hurt her that bad. I don't understand why she is crying. What did I say that was so bad?

"I'm sorry, I have to go." She said. She grabbed her phone and wallet and rushed out leaving all the people wonder what had just happened.

"Why did she run out?" I asked myself.

(Back to Aprils POV)

I have no idea why I ran out. I guess all of the emotions took over. I left the office and ran to the one place I knew I could be alone.

The cemetery.

I walked through the lanes until I came to the one that I wanted. "Hi mummy and daddy." I said to the head stone. "I'm sorry I haven't been by here in a long time." I said as I picked the weeds away from the graves. "I don't know what to do anymore. I'm so lost. I've lost myself and I don't know how to get me back." I cried. "I need a sign. I need some guidance. Help me please." I sobbed. I sat on the ground and pulled my knees up to my chest while I cried to my parents.

After a while I began to feel drowsy. I laid down next to the graves and looked up to the clouds. I felt like a child again, laying down next to mum and dad while look up making pictures out of the clouds.

This was the first time in a very long time, since I actually felt happy.

I know it's short. I'm sorry. I'll try to make it longer next chapter.
