walking in the wind

"and the nominees for best duet are..." we all clapped as sam smith and liam payne read the list of nominees. i mindlessly clapped, waiting for what i knew was coming. then i heard it. "everything has changed by my friends: kaia jenner and harry styles!" liam enthusiastically announced. they announced the winners as harry and i.

i hugged taylor and everyone again, including jaylen. then i hugged harry and we walked up there together. i knew everyone was expecting it to be super awkward, but harry and i were close. i was so happy that i almost forgot about how nervous i was to tell him about our baby. we both gave hugs to sam and liam (liam's hug lasted a little longer since he was one of harry and i's best friends.)

"thank you guys so much for this. kai and i wrote this song when k was going through some hard changes and we stayed up in the recording studio, writing and recording, all night." harry said and i laughed remembering that night. "this was one of the songs that came from that night. this song will always be special to us, regardless of whether or not we're together anymore. thank you to everyone who helped make this song, and to kaia for writing and singing it with me. there will never be a better duet partner. " harry told me and i started blushing.

"i- uh- can't compete with what harold just said so, um ditto." i said into the mic and harry and i, along with the whole audience, laughed. "but really, thank you to everyone who supported us and this song. thank you h, you have been my rock since we met, and this song is just one example of that. you're amazing. thanks everyone, i love my friends and family, i love you harry, i love all of you guys, and i love you sam and liam! bye everybody!" i blew kisses to everyone and harry and i were escorted off the stage.

taylor and i were about to leave. she was going to drop me off at my house and then go to the after party without me cause i was tired and didn't feel like going. i also hadn't recuperated from winning the last award of the night. i won record of the year and what was really messing with me was that it was presented to me by the queen herself, beyoncé. my acceptance speech was just me crying about how much i love her.

"kaia! taylor! wait!" i heard a voice say and we both turned around. it was jaylen, who was dragging a not happy-looking harry with her. "are you guys going to the after party?" jaylen excitedly asked. she always had energy, like a little puppy. she actually reminded me of a puppy a lot. "i am, kaia's not. i'm just gonna take her home and then i'm going. are you guys?"

"harry doesn't want to but i do. he says he's tired so he's going home." jaylen rolled her eyes, playfully, but we could tell she wasn't mad. i didn't think she could ever be mad at harry. but we would test that when she found out that i was pregnant with his baby. "well actually, taylor, since kaia's house is super out of your way, if you want to go ahead and go with jaylen, i can take kaia home. her house is pretty close to mine." harry offered. i gave taylor a look with wide eyes, hoping she'd say no.

"that'd be great actually. and you two can chat, you know, about your grammy win!" taylor hinted to me and i felt my breath hitch. "perfect! alright, bye taylor it was nice to see you again." he hugged her politely and she hugged him back. "bye jaylen." he hugged his girlfriend and kissed her lips sweetly. "bye, babe. i'll text you tomorrow." she told him and he nodded as we walked away.

harry drove and turned on the radio. he flipped through some channels until a familiar song began playing, it was "walking in the wind" from one direction's last album. i stopped him from changing it and sang along. "you know, this songs about you." he told me. "this one is?" i asked. id thought it was, but i never knew for sure. harry nodded. "this might be a weird question, but how much of that album is about me?" i nervously asked.

"well, this one, if i could fly, i want to write you a song, long way down, end of the day, love you goodbye, drag me down, infinity, and olivia." he counted. "wait, olivia? how?" i asked him. my name wasn't olivia, clearly. "i just came up with a different name, cause i didn't want it to be too obvious.

i awkwardly nodded, "well if i could fly is probably my favorite one direction song ever, and one of my favorite songs of all time, so i'm flattered." i smiled at harry and he smiled back as we pulled up into my driveway. "do you want to come inside? there's something we need to talk about."
