One Last Dance (Harry Styles fan fic) short story

Chapter 15

We sat quietly at a table and ate some snacks.

"I'll be right back, I'm gonna head to the bathroom." Karlie said.

"Okay, I'll be here."

She smiled then left the table.

After about 2 minutes I noticed she left her phone on the table when she received a notification of a text.

The screen had showed off part of the text and it was from her mom.

So have you decided that you wanted to move?

My heart dropped in panic.

No no no no no.

Karlie can't leave no.

She came back the next minute.

"You're moving?" My first thing I said when she came back.

Karlie's POV:

"You're moving?" Harry said when I came back.

"What?" I asked.

"No. Don't act like you don't know." He said.

I squinted my eyes in confusion at him.

"I don't Harry."

"You're mom, she said you wanted to move." He handed me my phone.

I must of left it here while I was gone.

I read the text he was trying to be talking about.

"Oh." I realized.

"Karlie don't leave please." He begged.

"I-I don't know." I rubbed my arm looking off into the distance of people dancing.

"No, you do know. You're gonna stay here." He said.

"Harry you can't force me to stay if I don't want to." I said angrily.

"You don't want to stay." He said sadly. "You don't want to be with me?"

I could sadness in his eyes and him breathing funny like if he were holding back the urge to cry.

"No, that's not exact-"

"I need to think." He interrupted turning away from me.

He walked away heading for the exit towards the hallway.

I ran after him.

"Harry!" I screamed in the hall.

I dashed after him.

"I'm not-"

"Staying? I know." He turn to me, his eyes glossy.

"Harry if you let me-"

"No no no no no, I can't imagine being here without you. Karlie I love you!" Tears were already falling down his face.

My heart stopped and my eyes grew bigger.

"Y-you love me?" I whispered.

"Yes! I love you! And if your leaving I'll be a mess without you. I don't know if I can handle going to college without the one I love. I wouldn't be able to concentrate because my mind would go crazy on you. I'm so in love with you!"

I stepped closer so our bodies were less than an inch apart.

I raised my hands to his face wiping away his tears.

"Harry." I whispered. "I'm not leaving. My mom suggested it cause she noticed something was wrong here. I had said I wanted to leave at first, but then I thought of you."
