Kally's P.O.V
Amber and I have been walking for fifteen minutes now, and we haven't said anything about Harry. "So, how are things between you and Harry?" She asks. Of course. "Uh, we're okay I guess." I whisper. "Just okay?" She frowns. "Yeah, you know how relationships are. People have their ups and downs, stuff like that." I say. "Ooh. I see." She says. "Yeah.." I whisper. We keep walking for a few more minutes, and then my phone rings. It's the university. "Hello?" I say. "Yes Kally, your boyfriend is very worried about you. He wants you to go home. Can you please come back to campus?" A woman says. "Oh uh, okay, I'll be back soon." I say. "Okay. Great! He'll be here waiting for you!" She says, and hangs up. What did he want?
Harry's P.O.V
"She's here." The woman smiles. "Oh thank God." I say. "Yes. I don't know what she was doing, though." She says. "Me neither. Thank you for finding her for me, though." I say. "No problem." She smiles. We wait for a few more minutes, and the door opens. I immediately turn to face the door. And there is Kally and Amber. I sigh with relief, and rush to her. I hug her very tightly, and kiss the top of her head.
Kally's P.O.V
Why was he hugging me so tight? I wasn't even gone for that long. What was his problem? "Harry, you're hurting me." I whisper. "Oh. Sorry, Kitten." He says, pulling away. "What was all that for?" I ask. "I was scared because I didn't know where you were. I thought I had lost you forever." He says. "Why did you think that?" I frown. "Because when you walked out, you acted like you were mad about something. And when you said you were leaving, I got scared." He says. "Oh, well, I just wanted to come here. I wasn't mad." I say. Or was I? I was trying my best to convince myself that I wasn't mad at Harry for probably lying to me. And it works. "Are you sure?" He asks. "I'm sure." I smile. He smiles, and cups my face in his very large hands, then kisses me. We smile into the kiss, kissing each other more and more. I pull away, and smile. So does he. "I love you." He smiles. "I love you, too." I smile.
Harry's P.O.V
We arrived home, and at the moment we were just cuddling with each other. I don't know why, but I think that Kally's mad at me. I try to think of what I could possibly have done this time, but fail. "What are you thinking about?" She asks. "Nothing." I smile. She smiles and continues to watch tv. What did I do? What did I do? What did I do? I don't know. I just don't know. "Hazza?" She says. "Yes baby girl?" I say. "I want to go horseback riding. Like, today. If that's okay." She says. "It sounds like a good idea." I say, smiling. "So, that's a yes?" She asks. "Yep." I say. "Yay!" She squeals. She gets up in a hurry and says, "Harry! Come on!" She smiles, and rushes upstairs. I smile, get up, and go upstairs, getting ready to go horseback riding.
Kally's P.O.V
I can't believe Harry said yes to that. But then again I'm not, because I know he would drop whatever he was doing just for me. We arrive at the place, and I say, "Yay! We're here!" I jump out the car, and rush to Harry's side. "Come on Harry! Let's go!" I jump up and down. "Okay okay, I'm coming." He chuckles. I grab his hand, and his fingers interlock with mine. "If you fall, I'll try not to laugh." I say as we walk. "You'll laugh, and you know it!" He says. "Yeah, you're right." I giggle, he chuckles. "I won't laugh, only if we ride on the same horse. I can be in the front so you won't do anything stupid like tell the horse to go faster." I giggle. "Sounds like a plan." He smiles. A girl, who looks like a teenager, welcomes us. We get on a horse, and I giggle as Harry gets on, while I'm already on the horse waiting. "Stop laughing at me!" He whines, I giggle more. He finally gets on. The horse starts to walk, and I say, "You might want to hold on." He immediately grabs me by the waist. Harry places his chin on my shoulder, moving his body closer to mine, making me warm. "Isn't this fun?" I ask with a smile. "Yeah, it is." I can tell that he's smiling to himself right about now. The horse has been walking around the huge circle hate for awhile now while Harry and I talk. "I think we should name the horse." I say petting her. "What should we name her?" He chuckles. "A combination of our names." I smile. "So, Karry?" He asks. "Yeah, or Hally." I say, shrugging. "Let's just go with Karry." He smiles. "Okay." I smile.
Harry's P.O.V
The horseback riding session was over, and I was back at home while Kally was at the university. I was sitting on the couch with Kitty while I watched tv. I get a call. For once it's not Taylor. It's Paige. "Hello?" I say. "Hey Harry! Looks like you and Kally enjoyed horseback riding!" Paige says. "How did you...?" I say. "Oh! It was all over Instagram. Sorry, I'm not stalking you." She giggles. "Okay, good." I laugh. She giggles more, and then there's silence. "So, how have you been?" I ask. "I'm good, you?" She asks. "I'm great! Thanks!" I smile. "So, are you excited about the baby?" She asks. "Yeah uh-" I'm cut off by Kally walking in. "Hey, uh, Paige? I have to go, Kally just walked in." I say. "Oh okay! Bye!" She says. "Bye." I say, and then hang up. "You didn't have to hang up." Kally says. "Yeah, well, I know you don't like me talking to her so.." I say, she shrugs, and doesn't say anything else. "Harry, something's been bothering me all day. Something that I really, really need to talk to you about." She says. "Okay...?" I say. "Okay, well, the reason why I left is because I..." She trails off. "What? Just tell me." I say.
Kally's P.O.V
"What? Just tell me." Harry says. But it wasn't that easy. I was going to tell him about the whole Larry situation. But how? I know he doesn't like me talking about it. But either way, I have to tell him or this feeling that I have will never go away. "I-It's not that easy." I say. "Why not? Just say it." He says. I sigh, and walk over to him, sitting down next to him. "I can't. It's hard, and I don't know how you'll react." I say. "I'm not going to get mad." He says. "Yeah. You always say that, but I don't want to get choked or slapped again." I say. That was a very scary time for me. Harry had choked and slapped me. He said he wouldn't hurt me, and it was kind of hard to trust him after he did that. And to be honest, it still is. "Look, I said I was sorry, okay? I had lost my temper, and did things that I knew were wrong. I'm sorry, and I swear I'll never do it again." He says. "Okay, we'll see." I say. Harry doesn't say anything else, and we're both silent. "Can I just tell you tomorrow? I'm really tired. And no, I'm not trying to get out of it, well I am, but-" Harry cuts me off. "Why is it so hard for you to tell me stuff?" He frowns. "I don't know, okay? It just is." I get up, and head toward the stairs. "Can I tell you tomorrow?" I say, before going up the stairs. "Sure." He says lowly. I sigh, and go upstairs. I enter the bedroom, and put on his Dream Boat shirt. I let Harry's question sink in. Why is it so hard for me to tell him things? Is it because I think he'll get mad? Of course it was. Or maybe I was just afraid of the truth. What if he does love Louis? No, I can't think like this. Harry loves me. Or Harry did love me. Why do I do this to myself? It isn't healthy for me to stay up late, and question everything. Harry soon comes into the bedroom, and I look at him. He stands in the doorway, his body leaning against the wall. He has his arms cross, and he doesn't look very happy. "It's Larry, isn't it?"
