Change Your Ticket

Chapter 9

H: "Hi."

Y/N: "Harry?!"

I stood there completely dumbfounded. How the hell has he managed to get all the way to England and then get to where I was staying? And why did he do it?!

H: "I know what you're thinking. You're thinking 'why is he here? how did he get here?' Am I wrong?"

Y/N: "Well...uh, no..."

H: "I'll explain it all to you if you let me inside."

My brain was telling me to stop right now but my heart told me to let him in. So without releasing I opened the door wider and let him in and then we both sat down on the couch.

Y/N: "I'm so confused..."

H: "Just listen to me, please."

I nodded my head because I was completely speechless.

H: "Alright so as you probably know, Ive been getting therapy and I've been trying to get much better in the head. I cannot tell you how sorry I am for hurting you, I really do love you. I always took you for granted but when you left I realised that you were a huge part of my life."

Y/N: "Don't try and guilt trip me into getting back with you."

H: "I'm not, I swear! If you want me then I'm here because my love for you never ever changed and it never ever will. I came here so that I could talk to you and see you in person."

Y/N: "Harry this is too over whelming for me. I just don't really want to see you..."

H: "I know that deep down your heart is telling you to allow me back into your life. I don't care how slowly you want to do it, but we can do it."

I bit the inside of my cheek nervously and he held my hands softly. A shiver went down from the top of my scalp all the way down to the tips of my toes and the hairs on my skin immediately stood straight like soldiers.

Y/N: "How much therapy did you get?"

H: "As much as I could, I really tried my hardest. Then when I went home and I would meditate. I wasn't going to give up on you, I swear I love you with all of my heart."

I looked up at him as his voice broke at the end and I could see the tears in his eyes. I'm not stupid for taking him back, right? I wiped away his tears and sighed.

Y/N: "Please don't cry, you know that's my weakness."

H: "I didn't do it intentionally."

We both chuckled and then it went silent. It felt like we were strangers, like we would have to start all over again right from the beginning.

Y/N: "Let's just be friends."

I saw how his face dropped and I bit my lip.

Y/N: "Look, I feel like we're strangers and need to get to know each other again. I just...Maybe we will progress into something more? But I doubt that will happen quickly."

He sighed and nodded his head.

H: "I completely understand. Can I take you out for lunch tomorrow?"

Y/N: "Yes you may."

I smiled at him and he smiled back at me, showing his dimples. I haven't seen those in so long, they radiate his happiness so well and they're so adorable.

H: "Y/N?!"

Y/N: "What? Sorry, I zoned out..."

H: "I could tell. What were you thinking about?"

Y/N: "Oh nothing, don't worry. What were you saying?"

H: "I'll pick you up at 12, that's what I said."

Y/N: "Alright then, I'll see you tomorrow."

H: "I'll see you tomorrow ba- I mean um..Y/N."

He then left really quickly and awkwardly. I got those butterflies that a teenage girl gets when her high school crush smiles at her...I got them when he almost called me babe or baby, I got them when he smiled, I got them when he held my hands. Oh shit. I think I'm falling in love with him all over again.
