Change Your Ticket

Chapter 6

It was now the next morning and I was up and ready for the day by 10:30am. Ashleigh was also up and read but she'd gone to work, which made me realise that getting a job would probably be the best option right about now. My mind was still trying to get over the fact that Harry was having therapy. Therapy?! Can you believe it? Anyway, I decided to go out for a walk seeing as it was a lovely day outside (in the UK, I know, I couldn't believe it either at first) and so I walked through a nearby park. The scenery was amazing as it wasn't like a playing park as such: there was a fountain in the middle, benches around everywhere, flowers blooming from the ground, green trees everywhere...today is going to be a good day.

?: "Y/N!"

I did a 360 trying to spot who had just called my name, I probably looked like an idiot. I realised I wasn't an idiot when I suddenly saw Jake running towards me with a massive smile on his face. A small smile tugged at my lips as he now stood in front of me.

J: "Hey how are you?"

Y/N: "I'm good thanks Jake, how are you doing?"

J: "Great, even better now that I've seen you."

I felt my cheeks heat up a little bit as he let out a small chuckle.

J: "I was wondering if you wanted to go and grab a bite to eat? On me?"

Y/N: "I'd love that."

We then walked together to a nearby coffee shop and sat down after we'd taken our orders.

Harrys P.O.V

There it was, on the Internet yet again. Y/N and this mysterious guy were spotted together again. She seemed be getting along with this guy quite well and I was worried that they'd develop something together. However, a part of me reminded me that I knew Y/N more than him and I knew that she wouldn't be able to move on that quickly. I was planning on flying to the UK as soon as I was better and I felt as though I'd had enough therapy sessions. I was just praying with everything in me that Y/N wouldn't go and get cosy with that guy.

Y/N's P.O.V

I sat here in this coffee shop having a decent time with Jake, we talked about all sorts of things from his first kiss to what I want to do here. A part of me felt guilty because maybe pictures of me and Jake were on the Internet and maybe Harry had seen them? But then again I had to remind myself that I was in a toxic relationship and getting out of it was the best thing to do and Jake seemed like a lovely person but I wasn't going to move on that quickly...

J: "Y/N?"

Y/N: "Huh? Oh, I'm so sorry Jake."

J: "That's okay, are you thinking about Harry?"

I nod my head in shame partly but also guilt but when I lifted my head up to look at Jake, all I saw was sympathy in his eyes.

J: "Look Y/N, I can tell that you still love him because that's obvious...we'll for me it is anyway. But you have to remind yourself: if Harry really loved me that much then would he have hurt me mentally and physically?"

Y/N: "It just hurts..."

J: "You're fresh out of a relationship, it's perfectly understandable. Just don't go back to him yet because the feelings take time to go away. Maybe give it a month or two and if you both still feel the same as you did when you first got together, then maybe you two are meant to be. Maybe once Harry has finished his therapy you guys can talk things through, and I mean face to face."

Y/N: "Thanks Jake, you're amazing. I just wish I could know what he was thinking. Is he getting therapy because he wants to try and prove a point to me or is he getting it so he doesn't break the next girl's heart? Does he still love me?"

J: "He most likely does still love you and he's getting therapy because he wants to get better. For you."

Y/N: "You're a legend."

J: "I know I am."

We both laughed and then Jake insisted on paying and then we left and parted our ways. 'Give it a month or two'...Jake's words still rang in my head. I can stick it out for a month or two, I'm sure by then my feelings for Harry will have cleared and the new chapter in my life will start.
