Stranded (Harry Styles Fan-Fic) {Completed}

Chapter Six (Die In Your Arms)

Hello, Lovelies! So, I told you I would try to update as much as I could today, so I figured I mine as well write a chapter or two for you guys today! So, as you know, I'm obsessed with Justin Bieber as much as I am One Direction, and this chapter idea reminded me of Justin Bieber's song, Die In Your Arms. If you've never heard the song before, I'll put the video somewhere off to the side, and you should seriously listen to it. It is a beautiful song. <3

"So, are we building two shelters, or just one?" Harry asked as we threw the logs and branches we found in the woods in a pile.

"Don't you think it would be easier to just build one? We could share it." I suggested. 

"Oh, that'd be way better." Harry winked, teasing me. I could feel my cheeks getting hot when he did so, and I looked down at the ground when he started laughing at me.

"Oh, shut up. I'm new at this." I giggled.

"New at what?" He asked, teasing me again. Oh. So he wanted me to say it out-loud, huh?

"I don't know, what would you call us right now?" I asked, giving him a playful smile. 

"I would hope you think we're a couple, because that's what I consider the two of us," Harry said, looking at me. I smiled and gave him a little nod, making sure he knew that I agreed with him. "So, girlfriend, are we going to build this thing or what?" 

"I would think so," I laughed. "Boyfriend." I added. 

I made my way over to the pile of branches and logs and started to organize them from biggest to smallest. When everything was organized, I reached for the strong vine the two of us ripped off the tree and called Harry over. I stacked the tough branches up in a Tee-Pee structure and tied the vine around them at the top, making sure it was tight enough. 

"Wow, good job, babe." Harry said, looking impressed. 

"Thank you," I said, taking a bow. "Now, let's go get the leaves for this thing." 

The two of us walked into the woods, grabbing every giant leaf we could find. These leaves were huge.. They were bigger than I was, and they were bright green and tough. They would be perfect to use as a roof and walls. 

We walked back to where the structure was built, and started piling on the leaves, one by one. When we were finished, we took a step back to admire our work. The shelter we built was pretty big.. I mean, it wasn't huge, but it was big enough for what looked like three people. 

"Come on," Harry urged, taking my hand and leading me to the front of the little house. "Let's go see what it looks like on the inside."

By now, it was dark outside. I could see the bright moon above us, and felt the cool air brushing against my skin. I followed Harry inside of the "hut", and we both sat down on the cold, sandy ground. I shivered as I felt the slight breeze coming in through the door. 

Harry sat behind me, letting me sit on his lap while he had his legs crossed, and I rested my head on his chest. I felt him put his arms around me as an attempt to keep me a bit warmer. Then, I heard him start to sing. 

Say you love me, as much as I love you, yeah, would you hurt me baby, would you do that to me, yeah, would you lie to me baby, 'cause the truth hurts so much more, would you do the things that drive me crazy, leave my heart still at the door.. 

I closed my eyes, hanging on to every word he sang. His beautiful voice was ringing in my ears, as he sang the tune softly. I felt myself smile. 

If I could just die in your arms, I wouldn't mind, 'cause every time you touch me, I just die in your arms, oooh, it feels so right, so baby, baby, please don't stop, girl.. 

I started thinking about the lyrics he was singing. I could die in his arms right now, and I would still be as happy as I was at the moment. Everything he was singing right now, related to everything I was feeling. I really did love Harry, and I regret not realizing this sooner. 

I know what your all probably thinking right now.. How can someone go from hating somebody, to loving them in two days? It doesn't make sense, right? Well, to be honest, I've always had some feelings for Harry. It just took me this long to realize that they were much stronger than I thought. 

When he was finished with his song, I felt him kiss my cheek. I smiled to myself when he did so, and looked up at him.

"You have a beautiful voice." 

"Thanks," He beamed. "I was inspired."

That made me blush quite a bit. I listened to the waves softly crashing to shore and looked out of the little door thing. (I don't know what to call the opening of the hut.) 

"Isn't it weird," Harry began, breaking the silence. "That something so good can come out of something so horrible?"

"I guess so," I said. "I mean, I dunno."

"This might be totally wrong of me to say at the moment, but I'm kind of glad that plane crashed.."

I looked up at him, giving him what seemed like the meanest look I have ever given somebody. How could he say that? If we never even got on the plane, I might still have my best friends.. They would still be alive right now. And if nothing ever went wrong with that plane, my whole senior class would be in Florida right now, running all over Disney World to ride the rides. We might even be at a hotel, where we can enjoy amazingly good breakfast, lunch and dinner. 

"No! You weren't supposed to take it the wrong way like that. I just meant, if the plane never crashed, you might not have ever given me a chance. You probably would still go on, ignoring me the best you could. You still wouldn't give me the time of day," He said quickly, trying to word his sentences better. "But most importantly, we wouldn't have ever ended up together."

I nodded, letting those words sink in. I didn't know whether or not to be mad at what he had said before, or happy because of what he had just told me now. I decided to be happy, because honestly, there was no time for negative thoughts. Besides, I guess I felt the same way to. Well, on the second part of us not being together. 

"I love you." Harry said softly.

"I love you too." I said quietly, looking at the ground.

I felt Harry's arms hugging me tighter around the waist. I smiled to myself and looked at the ground again. I could feel Harry's breathing on my neck again, as he set his chin on my shoulder. He started to sing again, this time a bit quieter. It sounded more like a lullaby. 

Baby, you light up my world like nobody else, the way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, but when you smile at the ground, it ain't hard to tell, you don't know-oh-oh, you don't know your beautiful..

I smiled, shutting my eyes again, listening to the words he was singing. I started thinking about everything that had happened in the past couple of days, and I started to hum along with Harry, until quietly drifting off to sleep in his arms.
