Lucky I'm in love with my best friend.

Chapter 22

Kim’s POV

*5 years later*

Hi guys, it’s been five years since I started my ‘new life.’ Let’s see what’s new…

I am living in a luxurious mansion here in London. But, to be honest, it gets quite lonely sometimes. But, it’s alright. I have my loyal dog, Sebastian, with me to keep me company. Sometimes, my best friend, Jackie, sleeps over.

For my career, at first, I was a cashier at Starbucks. I love that place, that’s why I chose to work there for a few months. Sometimes, I even get free coffee for handling the customers so well. They paid me a good amount every month, but I quit my job there because I wanted to get into the music industry.

No, I am not a singer nor do I play any instrument. But, I love music. Music is practically my life! The only reason why I went into the music business is to enjoy the music being produced around me and meet band dudes. I mean, c’mon! Who doesn’t love band dudes?!

I am the secretary in Syco Records. I’ve been working here for two months.  Yes, I may not be in the recording studios and watching them produce those beautiful sounds, but it’s better than organizing magazines and making coffee all day. As a secretary, I schedule meetings, when they will be able to start recording and other things like that. And sometimes, my boss, Simon, lets me sit around during his meeting with band dudes. Yeah, I fangirl afterwards. Who doesn’t?!

I love my job, I love my house, I love my dog, I love my best friend, I basically love my life. My life is great!

Harry’s POV

Hey guys… remember five years ago when I said I’m not going to dwell in the past anymore? I thought I could do it, but I can’t. Everywhere I go, everything I see, it reminds me of Kim! Even though there’s no relation to her, I still think about her. It’s not driving me insane or anything; she’s basically the reason why I always seem happy. I just think of our old times.

For the past years, I’ve been touring around the world with the boys. When we take our vacation, I either relax at Kim and I’s house at London or I just go to some country. I usually stay at our home to avoid fans. Don’t get me wrong, I love our fans to death! But, there are some days when I’d just like to be in my own world. You know, take a rest from this crazy world.

As for dating, I haven’t been really dating anyone. You’ve seen me in magazines or in news with some girl, but the management set us up for our image. I know it seems bad, but we have to do it for our image. Don’t think that we’re selfish because we only care about our image. This band is the only thing we have. It’s the only thing that keeps us living (as in money). If this band goes downhill, we’d have nothing left.

Starting today, we’re going to be recording songs for our new album, Take Me Home. This means we’ll be with Uncle Simon for who knows how long. (A/N: Take note of the happiness.)

We were on our way to Syco Records and as usual, I just slept on the way. I wasn’t surprised when I saw Kim in my dream. Every single night, I dream of her. Whether it makes me happy or sad, she’s usually the reason even though it’s just a dream.

I dreamt that I was finally going to see Kim. After five years of not communicating with her, I’m finally going to see her. She calls the other guys, but she doesn’t call me. I tried to build up the courage to talk to her, but it always ends up me turning off my phone instead.

I saw her standing there, she looks more beautiful since the last time I saw her. I swear she gets beautiful by each minute. She gave me a warm smile and I returned it to her. I walked towards her and she did the same. She was mirroring what I was doing. I stared at her and I held her face. I leaned in forward and she knew what was going to happen because she closed her eyes. Our lips were an inch apart and I was anxious to close the space between us. As I was going to connect our lips, she disappeared.
