What the fuck just happened?

I almost just let him kiss me and he just admitted he still loved me.

He told me he loved me, and I'd pushed him away all over again. It'd hurt to do it but it was what I'd needed to do. It was in the moment and if it wasn't for his goddamn eyes, I wouldn't be in this situation.

He told me he loved me. Fuck. He still loved me and I have no clue what to even feel about it.

"Hey, everything alright?" Ethan asks with a grin. "Was worried you wouldn't be back in time."

"Yeah! Everything is fine, just some things Harry and I needed to discuss." I smile at Ethan and walk past him towards the stage. He follows behind me and I stop to set the setting up on my camera.

"Did he cheat on you?" Ethan asks abruptly catching me off guard and making me look up at him.

"What?"

"Did he cheat on you? Is that why you two broke up?" He says with a tone of fake curiosity in his voice.

"No. He would never." I say shaking my head.

"I'm just asking because he just seems like the type go around, you know?" He shrugs and gives me a smile.

"He's not." I frown looking away to the floor in thought. It was the truth. Harry wasn't one to do that.

When we were first getting to know each other, he admitted he'd only been in love once. His first heartbreak was at the age of 15 and by the story he told me, it was definitely a rough one.

Harry was never one to jump around from person to person. Of course, he was interested in a couple of people throughout his lifetime but it never went far enough to form a relationship. He's passionate when it comes to love. He takes it in and just feels it. Which is why I know he wouldn't be the kind of person to jump from one to the other. Which is why our breakup had hurt him the way it had. His passion for love was what I admired most about him.

Harry was always being flirted with a lot before and even after we went official. Being taken didn't stop guys and girls from shooting their shot with him whether they knew he had a girlfriend or not.

For example, I vividly remember a girl named Emily in my Poli-Science class who sat next to me years ago in College. She was talking non-stop about the cutest guy she'd ever seen on campus. She didn't know his name but she'd described him with the prettiest set of green eyes and the most jaw dropping smile. Me being me, I even encouraged her to go for him. I didn't think anything about it at first, but it wasn't until after class when Harry had been waiting for me outside the door with a dimpled smile and an iced coffee in hand, that I'd realized Emily had been talking about Harry this entire time. She turned to me and whispered, "That's him, right there."
