We'll Never Go Out Of Style (harry styles imagines)

Summer Love

Inspired by the song 'Summer Love' from the album 'Take Me Home, Yearbook Edition'

It's been two years since you graduated and you've finally saved enough money to move out on your own. You and your Mum are cleaning out your wardrobe when the phone rings downstairs.

"I'll go get that," she says, leaving you alone in your room. After clearing a few coats and dresses from the wardrobe, you spot a cardboard box on the floor in the back corner. With steady hands, you reach down and grab it. Placing it in the middle of your nearly empty room, you sit cross-legged and tear off the sealing tape. There's a few words scribbled in permanent marker on the top; Summer, '09. Something inside your chests tightens as you begin to remember the summer before twelfth grade, the wonderful lake-side cabin, and the boy that made it so special.

Harry Styles.

With shaky hands, you open the box. The first thing you notice is a rather tattered polka-dotted bikini. It takes you a second, but you burst into a fit of laughter as you pull it out of the box.

---

"What do you think?" Harry asked as he walked out of the bathroom. Not wanting to look up from your book, you mumbled a 'looks good' and continued reading.

"I think so too, it looks much better on me."

It's that line that captured your attention. Looking up from the yellowed pages, your eyes widened and you choked on a laugh. For there, in all his tall, toned glory, was Harry Styles wearing your bikini.

---

You giggle as you remember having to help Harry out of the bikini, he'd managed to get stuck. Setting the bikini aside with one last laugh, you reached back into the box and pulled out a metal tube. Upon closer inspection, you realized it was a kazoo.

---

"Harry Edward Styles if you don't stop serenading me with Celine Dion on the kazoo I will snap your kazoo off!" You shrieked, throwing back the sheets and chasing Harry out of the bedroom.

"You seemed to enjoy my kazoo last night!" He yelled from wherever he had disappeared to. Your cheeks flushed a bright scarlet as you indeed remembered the night before, tangled in the sheets.

---

Even now, you remember everything about that night. As you continue unpacking the memories from the box, laughing to yourself, it's when you get to the bottom of the box and pull out an old copy of 'The Great Gatsby' that you let out a content sigh. You recall the nights by the fire, listening to Harry put on different voices as he read to you. You remember once laughing so hard that you couldn't breathe, and thinking that it was the best feeling in the world. Just you and him under the stars.

As you flick through the yellowed pages, the musty smell filling the air around you, something slips from the book and flutters to the floor. An envelope, with your name on it. Your heart seems to stop as you take the envelope in your hands and peel it open. Then, with a deep breath, you unfold the letter and begin to read.

Hello beautiful,

It's Harry. I don't know when you'll find this or if you ever will, but there are a few things I want to say.

First, thank you for making this summer so memorable. I will never forget the time we had, the laughs we shared, and the memories we made together. I enjoyed every second of my time with you.

Second, I want you to know that you are so important. I knew you talked about doubting yourself a few times in the time we were at the cabin, but you are so special to me and everyone around you. Never lose your light.

Finally, this might come as a shock, it might not. I never told you, but I'm in love with you. I fell in love with you under the summer stars and I wouldn't change it for the world.

Although you may not get this letter for a while, or even at all, just know that a boy in Holmes Chapel fell in love with you so easily it was like jumping into a lake. One minute, I could see you from afar, next I was surrounded by you. Everything about you makes me smile.

I love you.

H

P.S. I promise I'll buy you a new bikini one day.

Authors Note

ALRIGHTY, a new chapter whoo! I'm thinking of doing a part two of this one, with like Harry coming back or something. I don't know. I hope you're all doing well, and if you're not I'm here if you need to talk to someone. I start school again tomorrow so that's fun.

Anyway, have a good day!
Treat people with kindness.

xoxo,
