"Taylor! To your left!" Said a cameraman as i walked the VMA red carpet. I didn't enjoy these moments - ones where i had to force laughter and fake smiles. I have had fun times walking the carpet though in the past, all of which i was genuinely happy. Like the first award show i attended, or the 2010 Grammys where i won four awards. That was a funny memory...

a/n: We're back to current taylor now, not in her thoughts. I didn't make that very clear oop
I walked to the end of the red carpet, out of all the flashing lights and yelling cameramen. It was a relief to give my cheeks a bit of a rest. I didn't have much time with that though, because Ed greeted me at the end, and walked me to my seat, which was right next to his.
When i was just arriving to my seat, i noticed Harry Styles sitting on the other side of Ed. Of course Ed was behind this, because he had that cheeky grin on his face, and started sniggering. I silently punched his shoulder, out of Harry's view, which lead to a snort escaping Ed's mouth. It seemed that this moment was just too funny for him to keep himself together. I laughed too, because when Ed laughed it was hard not to be happy too.
Ed then turned to Harry and said something about "Hazza" and "mate". Typical, really. All those slang words, you'd think he was Australian. Well he is British, so it's close enough. I started thinking about Harry, and what a lovely person he'd become. The media adored him, and frankly i didn't blame them. We was such a gentleman when we dated back in 2012, but he was only 18 then. Maybe things could change if we dated now, with both of us being more mature. No, i thought. You needed to learn to love yourself before you could love anyone else. The other side of my brain, however, seemed to have a very different opinion. He could help you truly find yourself... It seemed that both sides of my conscience were have a fully-fledged battle inside me.
I was interrupted by feeling of green eyes gazing at me. Those eyes could only belong to one person - Harry. I had to look into them one more time, i couldn't help it. And it's not like i had a choice, either, my brain just ordered my neck to turn, and it obeyed. My eyes locked on those breathtakingly beautiful forest eyes. As soon as i felt myself blush i turned away, embarrassed.
The night went on really fast actually. Neither Harry nor Ed won anything, which i wasn't too happy about, but they didn't seem to mind. They didn't care about awards. I should be more like that, not letting the little things get to me. As i walked up on stage to collect my VMA award for something or other, my thoughts were elsewhere. Elsewhere, meaning Harry. Why do i do this to myself? I didn't have a chance with Harry, and everyone knew it. I'm nothing special, just your average 'serial dater.' Harry, on the other hand, was a gentleman. I accepted my award and thanked my loyal fans - as always - for making all this happen. On my way back to my seat, i was high-fived by none other than Harry Styles himself. He gave me a warm smile, which made my blood pump around my veins one hundred percent faster. When i sat down, i felt sweat making it's way through my skin.
a/n: Lowkey proud of this chapter lol. It's slowly getting more Haylor-ish!
