#24: "I Miss You"

Harry: It was another night of restless fighting. Shouts and yells erupt from both of your lips. Tears fall down your cheeks endlessly. Your voices were strained and tired. You got into bed by yourself, thinking Harry would sleep on the couch tonight. He manages to find his way back next to you. You’re curled up in a little ball, taking up no space at all. You feel the mattress sink down next to you. He slips himself under the covers and snakes his arm around your waist, pulling you closer to his body. He presses his lips against your back. “I miss you,” his voice drained, “Let’s not fight anymore okay? We can work through whatever we need to,” You can feel a light smile being put upon his lips alongside your back. You hate giving in, but the sincerity in his voice was what made you come back to him. Before you know it, you turn around, curling up into his arms.

Liam: You hear your phone ring, immediately picking it up when you see Liam’s name pop up on the screen. “Hey love,” he chirps, “Are you doing your homework like I predicted?” You laugh, completely missing his voice, “Ha. I got it done before you could say anything.” You sigh at the feeling of being alone almost every night. His absence was hard to deal with especially when there weren’t many friends or family around. “I miss you. I miss being home with you. Watching movies and cuddling. I miss it all really. I’ll be home soon. I promise,” he suddenly utters. A little smirk plays onto your lips, “I miss you too. It won’t be easy being alone for another 3 weeks, but I think I can handle it.” You can hear the audience of girls screaming in the background. “I guess that’s my cue! I’ll call you later. I love you!” he says, before going on stage.

Zayn: It’s been merely 5 months since you two have broken up. He hasn’t shaken the thought that you’ve finally moved onto someone else. The sight of you with some other guy angered him. But more than ever, it just hurt him. The feeling of losing someone that he loved so much was heartbreaking and knowing that he wasn’t wanted anymore hurt even more. He couldn’t get himself to sleep in the room you were once in. As he was cleaning it out, he finds broken pieces of glass shattered next to the nightstand. Your nightstand. It was a picture frame. It held a blurry picture of you two. He remembers that it was your favorite picture.“You know why this is my favorite?” you ask him, holding up the picture, “Cause we look the happiest in this one I think.” He still remembered what you had told him. “I miss you. You don’t even know how much I still love you,” he whispers to himself.  

Niall: He sets down the vase of red roses on the cement. “I brought you your favorite flowers,” he smiles. He sits himself down next to your grave, reminiscing at the times you were with him. “Remember that time we had a cake batter fight?” he laughs, “You had chocolate batter all over you! And you dumped the bag of flour on me. Cleaning up was the worst part. Oh! And do you remember the time we prank called Harry? Haha.” His smile soon turns into a sad one. Tears start welling up in his eyes, “I told the boys I was coming here today. They offered to come, but I needed to be here alone. I’m sorry for not showing up very often. Seeing you on that hospital bed made it so hard for me.  After the funeral, I was an absolute wreck. I couldn’t bring myself to come here after what happened. I miss you. We all do.”

Louis: You both broke up on a mutual note. At the time, you thought it was the right decision. But when you think about it now, you regretted it. You missed Louis like crazy. You missed his smile and his laugh. He was the only one who could make you cry and laugh at the same time. You went out for your morning coffee, setting yourself down at a table to relax. Oddly enough, you spotted Louis at the next table. When you glanced over, you catch him looking at you. You awkwardly smile and wave at him. He gets up and walks over to you. “Mind if I sit?” he asks. You shake your head. “How’ve you been?” you politely question. “I could be better. You?” he replies. “I’m alright,” you mutter. “I miss you. You know that?” he confesses. It made you feel better knowing he felt the same way, “I miss you too Lou.”
