on the drive to harry's, i think about what i'm going to say. the twenty minute drive feels like 2 seconds since thoughts cloud my mind the whole time. i park in his driveway and walk up to the door slowly. i talk to myself about what i'm going to say. i finally arrive at the door and knock three times. he doesn't answer. i look at my watch and see it's 12:30. i knock again because he's usually awake. as i am mid-knock, the door swings open. when he makes eye contact with me, he smiles. i can't look away from his eyes, though. they're puffy and red.
"oh, harry." i say hugging him. he sighs on my shoulder and i can feel him crying. he hugs me really tight. he finally lets go and looks at me smiling.
"we need to talk." i say.
"i know." he replies. we walk in and sit on his couch and i confess everything about the flirty exchanges with ryan and going to lunch. when i tell him, he tenses up.
"you were going to leave me that fast?" he asks getting a little frustrated.
"well, it was spur of the moment. we were talking and it felt really good and...i don't know what i was thinking." i confess. he just stares at me.
"well i have something to confess too." he says.
"and what's that?" i ask. he takes a deep breath.
"meghan came back from england because she still has feelings for me." he says. i breathe in and out to calm myself down. i don't know what i was expecting.
"do you have feelings for her?" i ask, my eyes starting to tear up. he breaks eye contact. he nods his head a little. i smile.
"i'm sorry." he says. tears are puddling in his eyes too.
"me too." i sigh. he looks up at me. he hugs me.
"why don't you finish the tour with the boys and we can part our ways." i whisper.
"i think that's best, for now." he replies. i stand up from the couch.
"well harry," i say containing my tears and trying to smile, "thanks for completely changing my life for the better." i continue. he smiles and waves as i exit his house. i get into my car and drive down the street. i know i shouldn't be driving since i can't stop choking on my tears and my vision is blurry. harrys street is narrow so the tiniest movements are dramatic. i end up side swiping a running vehicle.
"shit." i mumble. i pull over and get out of my car to give the person my information.
"y/n?" says the person who's car i'd just hit. the voice sounds oddly familiar and i look at the car and see it's an audi.
"shit!" i mumble again. this day couldn't get worse. i fix my mascara that dripped under my eyes and try to make myself look the slightest bit presentable.
"y/n, is that you?" he asks. i walk towards to where he was standing.
"hi ryan." i reply.
"hi. you just sideswiped me!" he says in a happy tone for some reason.
"yea, sorry. not my day." i respond.
"what's wrong?" he asks.
"harry and i just broke up." i reply.
"oh my gosh are you ok!" he asks giving me a hug.
"not really." i cry into his chest.
"it's ok." he says trying to calm me down.
"wait, you live here?" i ask.
"no, a buddy of mine." he replies.
"oh. um here." i say pulling out my insurance and handing it to him. he hands it back to me.
"it's ok, the company pays for it." he replies.
"um, this is very out of the blue and maybe too soon but i need somewhere to crash," i sniffle, "i had an apartment in san diego but that dissolved and i was staying with liam but he's good friends with harry and i've stayed at a hotel for too damn long." i ramble.
"sure." he shrugs.
"are you joking?" i ask.
"nope." he says smiling.
"oh my god thank you. it will just be for a couple nights until i can get my own place." i say.
"it's ok! take your time." he responds. he texts me his address since i have to stop by liams to get my stuff.
when i get to liams house, i tell him harry and i are over.
"so you two are just done?" he questions.
"yeah. he still has feelings for meghan and i think i've fallen out of love too." i reply.
"wow." liam says.
"yep." i say. we chat for a little as i pack up.
"thanks for letting me live with you." i say.
"anytime. call me if you need anything!" he replies.
i head out to my car and arrive at a small suburban neighborhood. i walk up the walk way of a small white house with a red door. i ring the door bell and ryan answers. i enter the house and set my bags down.
"so i have a guest bedroom in the basement so you can have your own space down there." he says.
"that sounds good. again, i know we like barely know each other but this means a lot." i reply. he smiles at me and helps bring my bags into the basement. he gives me a basement tour because it is surprisingly big for a small house.
"have you eaten anything?" he asks.
"yea, liam and i had some chinese food earlier." i reply.
"ok. well, let me know if you need anything!" he says walking back up the stairs. i change into some pj's and try to fall asleep. my life has changed so much because of a stupid concert.
