Harry Fanfic- The Story of Us.

Chapter Eleven

CHAPTER ELEVEN:

I woke up really early next morning, must have been about 7am, Harry was still lying next to me fast asleep. He was cute when he slept, he seemed so Innocent, I decided not to wake him up yet so I just sneaked out of bed and went downstairs. The only other person awake was Liam who was sat in the kitchen on his own, I could tell by the atmosphere he was upset. I obviously knew why he was sad I mean he had just broken up with Danielle, I didn't know the details about what happened but he was  depressed, just like anyone else would be in his place. The sky was the light blue of dawn as the sun had only just started to rise which meant the light was dim in the kitchen as I made my way towards Liam.

'Hey' I said in almost a whisper since I was trying not to scare him, he jumped a little bit anyway but relaxed when he saw it was only me.

'Hi' he said giving me a weak smile that was clearly fake, his eyes were a bit red and puffy. I felt so bad for him, everyone thought him and Danielle would last forever, but in a cruel twist of fate it all broke down. I wished I could make it better, for Liam, for Danielle, I hated seeing them upset and more importantly without each other, however the situation was out of my hands and no matter how much I wished it wouldn't change anything for either of them so I was stuck just being the shoulder  to cry on but I knew I had to be there for Liam.

'You want to talk about it?' I offered, sometimes I found it helped to tell someone about it even if you didnt know what was wrong with complete clarity, telling someone how you feel can help.

'I don't...' he choked a little, 'I don't know what happened to us, one minute it was perfect then the next...' seeing him like this tore me up, his innocent face so sad and pleading made me want cry.

'I know, that's how it always is its like a flash from that happy place with someone to here, where you don't even know where it all went wrong and what you're meant to do now, trust me I know where you're coming from' I told him, it was the truth I'd been there, feeling like that person is going to be with you forever, then they're not even talking to you, they seem to look straight through you like you're not even there and you're like strangers again. Losing someone is difficult like you could never understand if you hadn't been there, missing them makes you feel so alone and forgetting them... Well that's the hardest part.

'Yeah, it's strange being in this place, I never thought I'd be here' his voice drifted off as he launched himself into deep thought, I decided to leave him alone for a while. I went into the bathroom, took a deep breath and looked into the mirror, the girl staring back was no longer a stranger. She was me. The strong one, the one who was there for everyone, the joker, the girl that kept every thing inside and had spent the last year believing all love ever did is break you, burn and end but now I was going to start again and do it better. From where I was standing I could hear footsteps on the stairs  so I came out of the bathroom and smiled at Harry who was still half asleep but grinned at me anyway. He rubbed his eyes and came towards me.

'So basically I was thinking we could have that date tonight?' he asked, winking at me.

'Okay then' I laughed, just his face made me smile, I was happy and no one could ruin that for me right now.

'Great, dress going casually though we're not that fancy, it's just not how we roll' he threw his head and laughed, I wasn't sure was he was laughing it so I just rolled my eyes playfully. My half sister only lived a few minutes away and I had some clothes so I text her asking her to bring me some. Only 10 minutes later the door bell rang.

'I'll get it!' I shouted and sprinted to grab the door, there she was with her brown hair and bright blue eyes and huge smile on her face.

'Hey there little sis!' my sistr Katelyn said while pulling me into a hug, she smelled sweet a bit like honey.

'Hiya, how have you been?' I inquired, felt like I hadn't seen her in ages, well it had been ages I guess since I hadn't seen her in 4 weeks.

'Yeah okay babe, here's your stuff. I gotta rush of to work now, so love you bye' she waved to me and I watched her walked away down the gravel drive. The bag was just on the porch so I picked it up and went to get changed, like Harry said I dressed casually in just a khaki colour cotton shirt and a pair of jeans.

*Later that Day*

'Babe, you ready to go?' Harry called from the bottom of the stairs.

'Yeah, just coming' I shouted back while running down the stairs. The car journey only took about 10 minutes until we arrived at a small italian restaurant on the other side of town, it was beautiful and I flashed a smile at Harry as he opened my door for me. There was girl across the street who I noticed as I got out the car, she was casually on her phone but kept glancing up at us, she looked suspicious however I ignored it and carried on. I was shocked when within only the two minutes it took to walk from the car to the restaurant, we were surrounded by paparazzi.

'Harry! Is this your new girlfriend?' one reporter shouted.

'Hey Mr Styles, she doesn't look over 30, how old is she?' another screamed.

'Harry, who is she this time? Another girl?' said another one of the paparazzi, I was a bit offended and I could tell Harry was as well. We pushed our way into the restaurant where the owner wouldn't let them in.

'Hello Mr Styles' He greeted us and led us to the table, Harry wasn't in such a good mood anymore, great stupid paparazzi. During the meal he brightened up a bit, on the other hand he wasn't quite back to his usual self, he seemed worried and annoyed, I could tell by the way his eyes drifted off occasionally and he furrowed his eye brows sometimes.

'I don't want to leave...' he whispered to me over the table, his mint greeneyes gleamed in the candle light as he stared into mine, for a moment I was lost in his beautiful eyes.

'What are we going to do?' I replied eventually when I snapped out of the trance his eyes put me into.

'I don't know, but uh I was sort of wondering if like...' he was really nervous now, he stuttered this sentence and I could see him wringing his hands under the table, 'you would want to uh...'
