The Way Things Work

Chapter Forty Four

"Harry-" You thought of what to say next. The truth? The truth was that you so desperately wanted to fall in his arms and let him take all the pain away. The problem? Louis.

"What is it? Please just come back. I love you and I swear things will be different."

"H-How can I be sure?" You stalled as your mind raced.

"I swear to the moon and back that I am different. When you walked out, m-my heart broke a little. I though that acting like a dick would drive you away, no, I knew it would. I was scared of commitment and--love. I fell for you, hard. Sam I loved you at first sight but I was scared. Please, losing you was the hardest thing I have ever gone through and when I found out you were seeing Louis? My heart just snapped. I have gotten my act together. Please, just give me the chance."

"I-I want to Harry, but Louis."

"Tell him the truth. Leading him on is worse than this."

"I-I guess. Should we go now?"

"N-Now? I guess that works."

"Will you come with me?"

"Of course I will babe." He smirked and placed a kiss on your forehead.

"Alright. let's go."

You got up and walked out. You stopped in front of Louis' door when Eleanor approached you. 

"He's not there." She smile sinisterly at you.

"Why not?" Harry spoke up.

"Not sure, he's planning on dumping you."

"Okay." You sighed.

"That's it? He told me that you were worthless and fat. He only went out with you to get in your pants. I guess he won." She snickered.

"That's enough!" Harry screamed as he stepped closer to the door.

"H-He said that?" You stammered.

"Oh and much more my dear. He couldn't believe how screwed up you were. He told me that you were nothing compared to me and that-that-" She froze, she almost sounded hurt. "The sex wasn't even worth it." She growled as she stormed away.

"I knew I was never good enough."

"Sam wait!" He called as you burst into Louis' flat, locking Harry out behind you. "SAM! LET ME IN!" He screamed as he thrust himself at the door.

You ran to the bathroom and locked that door to as you grabbed the sleeping pills you were on. "You were always right, you were never worth it." You whispered to yourself as you swallowed every last pill.

"SAM!" Harry continued to throw his entire body at the door. "GOD DAMN IT OPEN THE DOOR!"

"Harry!" Sarah shrieked from Liam's door way. "What the Hell are you doing?! Are you drunk? Hungover-"

"SHUT UP SARAH!" He turned away and kicked the door in, breaking the lock. "SAM!"

"Harry!" Liam and Zayn thrust Harry to the ground.

"Get off me!"

"NO! You need to calm down!" Zayn yelled over Harry struggling to break loose.

"She's going to hurt herself! LET ME GO!" He growled as he kicked Liam backward and thrust Zayn forward. "SAM!" He called as he tried to open the bathroom door. You could slightly hear him but you weren't strong enough to answer. Your eyes slowly began to drift closed as everything went silent. Peace at last.
