Sweet Melody (A Haylor Fanfiction)

Chapter 45

When we arrive at the award show, hand in hand ofcourse, I quickly drag him to the dressing room since I was the opening for the whole show. When I'm done, I peek at the curtains and notice the huge sea of people who are to be watching and having their eyes on me through the whole show.

"I'm nervous," I admit, saying it over and over while pacing back and forth between Harry and the mirror about ten million times.

"You know, I get nervous, yeah, but then when you finish it, it'll be alright. Nothings going to do anything to you, you didn't kill anyone, so just stop being so nervous," He advises me, but clearly it's not helping one bit.

"It's not everyday, you perform in front of the first lady of America," I say as he pulls me into his lap, the stiff texture of his jean brushes against my dress.

"Well, calm down, sweetheart you're going to do so well, I'm betting on that." He barely whispers, his accent thick matching his deep tone raspy voice. His head falls back on the sofa, making both of us lay down on the hard, uncomfortable sofa, but I'm on top of Harry and nothing would ever be more comfortable than this.

I feel his pulse, his breathing, the pace of his chest inhaling and exhaling up and down. I can stay like this forever and never get bored. He strokes my arm up and down, it's a soothing gesture really, but to be honest, I'm very nervous and that slightly helps. 

"I love you," He whispers pressing his plump lips on my head, calming me down, making the nervousness ignite and evaporate little by little.

"I love you," I reply and squeeze his shirt for some sort of reassurance, that he'll always stay with me. But that sense was all ruined by the knock on the door.

"Taylor Swift." The announcer calls and this signals my cue. My heart is pounding and it feels like it's going to fall out of my chest any moment. I'm sweating more than ever right now and I'm trying to breathe properly, his hand lays on my waist and strokes up and down, helping me calm down.

"It's going to be sick." He says and gently kisses my cheek before holding my hand and dropping me off on stage. As I go on, I see the first lady and my lungs are tight, I don't feel like breathing, everyone and everything is staring at me suddenly and the I feel so small.

I fiddle with the microphone and the music starts, I look over and see Harry. He raises a thumb at me and smiles, somehow that gives me a boost of confidence and I finished the song in no time. The familiar sound of applause fills my ear giving me a good balance on my ego. The host talks to me for a bit and when I look back, I didn't find Harry standing in the same spot and it's a little bit of a distraction. Maybe he went for a drink or something, but it couldn't be what I think, I hope it's not.

When the host is finally done, blabbering about the show, I get off and blew a kiss to the audience for the last time, before stepping out of the narrow stage exit.

After making it through the thick crowd of people, I scurry to every inch of the room to find Harry, but I can't. So I decide to just head off outside rather than backstage. I open the door and aimed to reach my seat, but before that, I see two connected figures and I walk into them, making them tear apart.

My eyes widen at the sight, I almost close my eyes. The sight standing before me is Harry and Emma; hugging. The lights of emotions in the pit of my stomach ignites and my breathing pace increases before my heart rate does. I am in loss of words.

This was the worst case scenario and I cannot afford to cause a scene so I decide to face the inevitable later and storm out of the room, before a cold hands touch me. Big familiar ones, but I pull away from them, running away and wiping the tears that are streaming down my cheeks before I even realize it.
