Getting You Back

Chapter Three: Mistakes (Harry's Pov)

Chapter Three: Mistakes (Harry's Pov)

        My foot taps endlessly against the floor boards of my flat. My hands tug at my curly hair. I look down at the mobile in my hand and I beg for it to ring. Silently, I am begging for her to call me. Please baby, I think in my head. I let the most amazing girl -woman- go without a fight. She is everything I could possibly ask for in a girlfriend. She is smart, funny, has the most precious smile, the cutest giggle, and most of all she's beautiful on the inside and out. But I let it all go for something temporary. I let Taylor fucking Swift in. I was Taylorized just like the rest of the guys she was with. So now I let my true love go while I have a girl who thinks she's my girlfriend.The front door of my flat opens and foot steps echo down the hall.
"Harry." I look up at the sound of my name. Louis, Eleanor, Liam, Danielle, Zayn, and Perrie stand in front of me with sad faces. Each have some shade of guilt on them. They can't look me in the eye, they focus on their shoes and their thumbs roll over the other. They, like me, hurt her too. The girls were suppose to be her support because Halle would be there for them within a heart beat. They should of pushed me away from Taylor rather than pushing me towards her. Halle would of stopped their boys if she had to. Louis, Liam, and Zayn should of been there for her too. She was always there for them, she fought her tiredness after shows to stay up with them and me, she helped them when ever they needed her. They all should of been there like she was there for him.
"Have you heard from Halle?" Zayn ask while taking a seat on my couch, Perrie walks over to him and places herself on his lap. I look away when Perrie snuggles against him. Their moment reminds me of her, it reminds me of what I lost. It reminds me of when she would snuggle close to me and sit on my lap. Despite being somewhat shy when it comes to public display of affection, she would always sit on my lap. She would sit on my lip, cross one leg over the other as she sat on my thigh, and wrap her arm around my neck.
"Yeah, I called." Eleanor looks at me hopefully. She begs me with her hazel eyes for details. The truth is there is no details, there is nothing to say.
"Did she answer?" She ask hopefully. I take in a deep breath, preparing myself for more disappointment.
" Oh, I got an answer but it wasn't Halle, it was Lilly. I was told, 'Hey you two timing curly haired ass hole! You're a douche for cheating on the best girl in the world! So go have fun with your rat faced, wannabe country singer of a whore! And don't call back! Bye!' Then she hung up and turned off Halle's mobile. I haven't talked to Halle, she won't speak to me." When I heard the other line pick up I shot up from my seat and I began to cry. My heart began to race with the thoughts that were consuming my mind. There was so much I had to say but all I could think to say was, "I am sorry." But right as I found my voice it was Lilly who spoke. It wasn't my girl and I sat there getting chewed out by her best friend I stopped breathing, hoping that I could hear her in the background.

"I tried calling her and she won't answer me."  Liam says while glaring down at his hands. " She suppose to answer my calls, I'm her LiLi." He yells out. His hands ball into fist at his thigh. His face goes red with his agitation.
"But you still hurt her!" We all jump at the sudden yell. We all turn in our spots, in the threshold of my flat door is Niall. His pale face is red with anger and his eyes are narrowed. His clenched hands are shaking at his side. " She doesn't trust any of you." His eyes go over to the girls. " You were suppose to have her back the most. She would of done anything for you! When ever something happened you she was the first person to call you." He shakes his head, getting rid of the thoughts he was about to say. Niall looks over to the lads and I. At the sight of us he rolls his eyes and looks away. What ever thoughts he has stay closed within his mind. In his hands his mobile begins to light up. When he turns it over I see Halle's picture flash across the screen. "Ello...hey darlin...you okay...yeah I heard what Lilly told him...he deserves it." His lips set into a frown as she speaks. Something that she says causes his face to crumple in pain. "Shh, don't cry love. He doesn't deserve your tears." I watch as he talks to MY girl. He speaks to her as if I'm not even here. I get up from my spot and get in front of him.
"Give me the mobile Niall." He glares at me then turns away so that the mobile is father away from me. " NOW." I yell at him. I feel my chest tigten with all my anger. I lunge for the iPhone but he moves before I can get my hands on it. " I'm not playing with you Horan."
" I have to go love. I will call you when I am alone." My heart stops when I hear those words.
"Okay Ni, I love you." I hear her voice from where I stand and I swear I haven't heard something so beautiful.
"Halleiana." I shout her name but Niall end the call before she can hear and without an apology. " What the hell is your problem?" I get on the balls of my feet, ready to swing at his jaw and tackle him. All my rage boils in my blood and my fingers twitch to hit some thing or rather someone. As I go for Niall, Liam jumps up and pushes me away from him. Liam's arms comes around me from the back and hold me back so that I can't charge at Niall.
"What's my problem Harry? Me? You are the one who let the most amazing girl on the face of the planet go. She is so much better than a "model", singer, or a dancer. You let her go for some filth who will use you to make another couple of millions. You did this to yourself. Halleiana doesn't deserve to be treated like second best. She deserves to be treated like the Queen she is. You don't deserve her. She deserves someone like me." My teeth clench at that last part. He want MY girl. From the confinement of Liam's arms I jerk towards Niall. Niall flinches at my attempted advance but then puffs his chest out. 
"One touch, that's all it will take. Touch my girl and I will get you. I swear on it. I swear on my life." My voice comes out lower than it has before. It comes darker than I have ever hear. He gives me a mocking smirk.
" What if she wants me?" He takes a step towards me and looks me directly in the eye.I find a loose spot in Liam's grip. In what doesn't seem like a second, I escape my prison and have Niall's back up against the wall. His eyes go wide and the blood drains from his face, leaving him bone white. I place my hands on both sides of his face, encasing him within my trap.
"You will keep your fucking hands off my girlfriend. Clear?" His mobile begins to ring. He looks down at the black device. The name across the screen causes him to look up at me and smile.
"Hi love." He says in a sweet voice while pushing me away. He looks me dead in the eye and gives me a mocking smile. " No, I am alone. You okay?" Niall spins on his heel, leaving the room. I hear the front door open and close. A silence fills the room, the only thing that can be heard is my heavy breathing and the engine of a car starting up then driving away.
"Ughhhhhhhh." I scream out my frustration. I can feel my skin turning red from my anger. I go over to the nearest wall of my flat and I begin to punch it.
"That! No! Good! Dirty! Irish! Mother! Fucker!" With each word I let out a  punch, letting out all my anger. The adrenaline running through my body keeps me from feeling the pain I know that's in my hand. I punch the wall as if it is a punching bag. When my hand break through the dry wall I step away and catch my breath. I look at the massive hole in my wall and I don't feel regret. Better than Niall, I think to myself. No one dares to say a word as I sit back down. My chest heaves up and down and I can feel my heart racing. I look up to see Eleanor staring at the computer screen with no expression and tears in her eyes.
"What is it El?" I can see she wants to say nothing and not add to my anger. "You cannot lie to me I can see that something is bothering you." Wordlessly, she turns to the computer to me. I scan the screen and see that it's Halle's twitter. I see that the name I created for her is changed. I pull out my mobile out and press my Instagram app. I look through my followers and she's not there. " Where is she?"
"She changed her twitter name and blocked us on Instagram so we can't view her." She cries into her hands as Louis pulls her into his chest. I look back on the screen to see new tweets sent to her. 
Halle, what's happening?
Why is Harry begging?

Questions like that fill our twitter feed. I look through each other tweet trying to find out if she's okay. One tweet catches my eye. " He hurt you, didn't he?" This is the only one she responded to. I bury my face into my hands and what feels like the millionth time in a day I cry. I let her go, my baby girl. A new tweet dings, gaining my attention. I click on the picture and for a moment I'm left breathless at the sight of her. She is standing next to Lilly, smiling at the camera. Her chocolate brown hair has ombre highlights at the ends. The new colour mixed with her natural colour makes her ocean blue eyes pop.The captain of the picture reads, Time for a new start. This is step one. 
Before I do anything else I save the beautiful picture of my girl. Then I bring my hands to the keys. 
"Baby, please. I beg you. Just give me five minutes. I miss you darling. Five minutes my beautiful Halleiana. I love you baby. @Halleiana_Marie" I hit the enter button without a second thought. Putting our business out like this is something we don't do but at this point I am desperate for any sort of communication with her. Within seconds I get retweets and favorites but it's not by the person I need the most. I pull out my mobile and dial the number I know by heart.
"Hey, this is Halle. Sorry I couldn't get to the phone. You know what to do at the beep." I smile at her cheerful voice. With a deep sigh, I answer after the beep.
"Baby, please. Please, I am begging you. Talk to me. I need you baby. And I know that you need me just as much as I need you. You are my life love. I love you Halleiana Marie Martinez. And I will keep fighting for you until you are where you belong. I love you baby." I finish my message at the ending beep. All my mistakes got me here., alone and away from my darling.
