Getting the Band Back Together

Chapter 22 (Harry's POV) It's Felt Like Eternity

(Harry's POV)

H-"What?" i whispered quietly. i couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe what the love of my life. Yes, I decided last night i was in love with Mary after she fell asleep on my chest in bed. She spent the night in my hotel room, Brandi in Niall's, and Lauren in Louis'. We didn't do anything. Just cuddle. The other four I'm not sure about, but Mary and I were just happy to be there together. It felt like nothing could tare us apart. At least...that's what I felt.

M-"Look Harry, it's only for a month. We've dreamed of this our whole ENTIRE lives! We want to travel the world. We weren't planning on falling in love with super stars at our first stop on our journey." As she said the last part she came closer to me and put her right hand to my cheek, but I felt nothing. It was like I knew her hand was there, but my body was numb. It's not like I didn't want her to live her dream, but I didn't want her to go either. I was afraid to tell her this too. I didn't want her to think I was just gonna let her go like that, but I was. I had to. She was right. I would be busy for the next month. Last night was the last night the boys and I were staying at the hotel. We were going on a radio tour to let people know that we are definately coming back and for promotions and things. I thought the girls would want to come with us, but even if they did, they wouldn't be able to come with us to the radio stations and we'd be too tired to do anything when we were done. Her plan made sense too. Go till the radio tours done and see as many countries as possible. Then come back before the albums released.

H-"I don't..."

M-"I don't want to go either, but at the same time I do. Europe was my home Harry. I miss it. And this-" She said pointing out the window. Before continuing she looked out it emptilly. "This isn't my Europe. This is another world I'm unuse to. My home is Eastern Europe where there are mountains and cobble stone streets and chapels and 100 year old trolly's. That's what I miss. I've missed it for almost 10 years. I have to go back, and I have to see those places again." She turned around and looked at me with shiny eyes. I could see the tears along her lower lashes. "I have to show my sisters what my life was like."

H-"Is that what this whole trip wasw about? Re-living your childhood?"

M-"No, but...Harry I miss it." A single tear rolled down her cheek down and I walked over to her and whiped it away. I pulled her in for a hug and we just stood there in silence. I have to let her go. I can't keep her here for my own sake. That's selfish. Besides, we'll be together again. It's only a month. Who am I kidding. We haven't even been together a month and it's felt like eternity.
