Day 200. A Harry Styles, One Direction Fanfic

Part 10. Little Things.

Day 91.

Yesterday was perfect, all in all she can't deny she doesn't have feelings for me like she always do. After months and months, she trusted me enough to throw herself at me. Course it was a beautiful feeling, it's the most relieved thing i've felt in a long time since winning X Factor.

Grace was laying down the couch writing in her journal. she always brings it everywhere and she never stops writing, "I bet you're writing about me", i kissed her forehead and grabbed a beer from the fridge. Slumping myself next to her, peeking at her journal. "Hey! Narsistic cheeky man, gooo", she pushed my head away from her. I put my beer down and grabbed her arms, pulling it harshly to my face and kissed her. It was passionate but hungry. She was a good kisser so top points for her.

"Wait, whoah, when did this happen?", i heard Niall's voice and we brake the kiss. "Congrats mate finally!", he came over and highfived me. "How am i not informed?", he took my bottle of beer and had a drink. "This is us informing you", Grace set up straight and straighten her dress. "No, this is me walking on you", he corrected.

"Nonetheless, very very happy for you", he burped.

"You can finish that", i looked at him in disgust.

"Cheers"

We went out for dinner in a shack sort of bar neer our house, Liam was excited to hear us together. But he didn't seem surprised, none of the boys should. Knowing what i've been through to be with her, all the visits, the texts, the friendzone fase. 

We walked through the beach, it was dark already and the stars were amazing. We walked in the tip of the beach where we could feel the water rushing through our toes. Me and the boys were splashing each other and unaccidentally got Rosie. "Guys! This is my new Ted Baker dress. Can we please let it be dry?", she had a serious look. But we all just responded in laughter, even Niall. She can be like that sometimes but she is a lovely lady when people get to know her.

"Lighten up, sweetheart", Niall kissed her cheeks until she smiled. "I'm not stunning like her", Grace crossed her arms and said quietly. I looked at Liam who seems to overheard, he smiled and walked a bit faster to give us time to talk. I nodded at him, "But you're perfect to me", i whispered. She giggled and kicked me, "That's just you being cheeky". "that was me being honest", i kissed her damp hair.

The shack was crazy busy, the atmosphere was fun and joyful. People at the bar just laughing away, there was a guitar performance in the front for the couples that are laying in the sand or by the bondfire. But there was music inside and people are dancing in the middle, and there was a more quiter side for the restaurant.

"How can i help you?", said the old man who were doing tricks and making drinks. "The strongest thing you have", Liam ordered. We sat at the bar and Niall ordered nachos and vodka and scotch for the rest of us. "Sierra silver tequila coming your way", he had the funny spanish accent. I ordered beer and any food specialty of the house, "Oh i can't drink. I'm on my meds", Grace nodded when Liam offered her. "Seriously? Okay. more for me then", he was a few pints away from being crazy drunk.

"You're obligated to take care of Liam tonight", i told Niall first. knowing he'll do stupid things in progress.

"Shoot, really? Only if i'm sober. which i won't", he swallowed another green fairy. This thing was banned in a few places for being too strong, but oh yet here it is in Spain.

"I'll be the most sober one", Grace raised her hand.

"Tonight, love, we are about to have fun!", Liam put his arms around her and toasted.

We exchanged look knowing tonight will be fun but forgetable from all the alcohol.

Rosie and Niall shared another bloody mary and another green fairy. And i was already on my third bottle, we were talking about honest stuff. You know, drunk people and their words. "Did you know", Liam told Grace, "That Harry waited to see you in the station for months before he asked your name", everyone laughed so i gave a bit of giggling along. "Is that so?", she raised her knitted eyebrows at me. "And he was so desperate", Niall informed. "Okay boys that's enough", i patted Liam's shoulders.

"But there is more!", he yelled. "We're gonna go for a walk", i excused myself and grabbed Grace's hands. Niall's face was busy with Rosie all over him, while Liam is talking to a local lady who wanted to dance with him.

Grace rubbed her arms as we walk further away from all the noise. "Are you cold?", i looked back at her and stopped walking. The sound of laughter and the spanish music was faint, but it was still clear. "A bit", she stuttered. "Oh bless", i went over to her and gave her a warm hug.

She sat down and so did i, I laid back so we could enjoy the starry night view. There were millions and millions up above, and i had the woman i love next to me. "It's a beautiful night", she held my hand and snuggled closer. "Yeah, never seen these many stars", i sighed.

"That one looks like a pizza", she pointed.

"That looks like a dog with a frown face, bulldogs", she laughed.

"This one looks like an angel", i put my fingers on her cheeks and stroked them.

"This one is a fine young man"

We stayed in silence for a few moments, enjoying the moment as it is. "You know, i got a few lines for the new song", i played with her hair. "That's amazing! Can i hear it?", she suddenly got all jumpy and giddy.

"Only a few lines and not a great tune yet, but i found my inspiration"

"So spain is your inspiration?"

"My inspiration is right infront of me all this time, you"

She kissed me softly and began tapping her fingers on my chest again, playing with my collar bone.

"Can i atleast know what the lyrics are?"

"I want you to hear it when it's perfect", i refused."

"Just a few lines, please please pretty please?", she pleased with her puppy eyes.

I sighed and started humming,

"You'll never treat yourself right, darlin' 

But I want you to, 

If I let you know, I'm here for you, 

Maybe you'll love yourself"

Even in the dark i could see tears building in her eyes, her smile were wide and her dimples showed. She didn't say anything, she kissed me until i felt a salty drop. She was crying but i can feel her smile.

"You promised you should never love me", she sat straight up. "This is not right, i can't do this with you".

I was clearly confused, so i hold her hands tight. "Why? Why in the world can't i fall in love with you? Why do you make it so difficult?", my voice was harsh and loud.

She cried some more, "You have no idea who i am, who i will be. I don't want... to hurt you", she sobbed.. I forced her into a hug, she had a hard time breathing and she punched me hard in the chest again and again.

"Hey stop it!", i held her hand tight. Too tight. "You being like this is hurting me", my voice still steady.

"You have no idea how much i can hurt you more later", her face burried so i can barely hear her voice over the crashing waves.

"I don't care. I want to be with you"

"I do, but i told you we should be friends and please respect that"

"Our relationship can't only last for two days, i like you too much"

"I like you too much that i need to protect you. From getting hurt. Trust me"
