Please Be Careful With My Heart

Harry's POV:
We were finally at the states! There was only 2 weeks left of the tour but our schedules got more hectic as Sammie was preparing for the final 2 weeks of X factor while the lads and I prepared for our MSG concert, while simultaneously moving around the states for the other performances.

'Hey babe, yeah sorry, we've got an interview, I'll call you back later' I told Sammie on the phone.

And that's how long our conversations went for lately. At some days we would go without any communication, then it's not until the next day we realise we haven't spoken in the last 24 hours.

After the interview we headed back to the hotel to watch X-factor. The show was already half way done when we got to the t.v.

'Ooi, Haz you excited to see Sammie perform with her boys' Niall called out across the lounge. 'What?' I cringed my eye brows. 'Sammie's doing a song with George and Josh, Harry. It's this new thing they've introduced in the show. Mentor and contestant duet before the finals' Liam explained. 'But it's the viewers who votes on which team they want to see perform. Didn't she tell you?' Zayn spoke. 'No she didn't' I responded with a sharp tone.

'Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Ms. Samantha Robertson with George Shelley and Josh Cuthbert' Mario announced. 'Wow, she looks stunning' Liam called out. 'Downn boy your drooling all over the couch' Louis commented.

I watched Sammie perform, she and the boys sang 'Beneath your Beautiful' by Labrinth ft Emeli Sandi. She sounded amazing, she looked amazing, but part of me still felt some degree of anger as she didn't tell me about this duet.

George reached out for Sammie's hand to help her walk forward. I watched the performance torn between jealousy, anger and awe. Was I supposed to be angry at her? Jealous? Or admire her beauty?

The boys both put their hands on her back as they all sang the last chorus in perfect pitch. The audience applaused them and the trio got a standing ovation from the judges.

'Kiss, kiss' the crowd chanted, I clenched my fist over the crowds excitement. 'Which one? There's two of them' LA called out, I was not amused. 'Hey, come on now, someone might get jealous?' Khloe stated. Suddenly, both the lads kissed Sammie at the same time, at each cheek which caused the crowd to go crazy.

I stood up and left. 'Harry? Harry!' the boys shouted after me. I slammed the door hoping they'd get the memo that I didn't want to talk.

Samantha's POV:

I called Harry the next day to tell him about my performance last night. I'm sure that I'd forgotten to inform him about it due to our busy schedule but I'm sure he would have watched it last night.

His phone rang three times, but there was no answer.So I decided to call Zayn. 'Hey Zayn' I spoke in a rather high pitch tone. 'Juleess! You were amazing last night love' Zayn said cheerfully. 'Thanks! Harry isn't answering his phone, is he with you?' I said. 'Yeah he is, hang on' he replied.

'Hello' Harry mumbled. 'Hey Babe, I just wanted to talk to you about my performance last night. I had such a great time performing. It's been so long since I last sang on stage and last night was so perfect. Did you watch it?' I blabbed on. 'Yeah I did' he replied bluntly. Is that all he could say, I just shared him my overwhelming feeling of joy and he just popped it like a pin popping a balloon.



'Look, I've gotta go' he hurried to leave. 'No Harry, something's up, now tell me' I demanded. 'Why didn't you tell me you were gonna perform with them?' he blurted. 'Harry, you know how busy we both have been, every time we spoke in barely lasted 5 minutes. It just slipped off my mind ' I spoke in a calm manner.

'Slip? How could you let something like that slip off your mind?' he asked increasing the volume of his voice. 'Why are you so upset about it? It's not like I lied to you or anything. And it's just part of my work. You know George and Josh are both my contestant, so we're always working together, it's part-' he quickly cut me off.

'No Sammie! It's not part of your job to be with them 24/7, it's not part of your job to let them kiss you and it's definitely not part of your job to flirt with them' he raged. 'Don't accuse me of something that-'he cut me off again. 'It's not an accusation when it's clearly evident on the show' he retorted.

'You know what, I really don't want to talk to you right now' I seethed with anger. 'Well, the feeling is mutual!' he thundered. 'Ehh you are so GRRR!' I fumed. He hanged up before I even could.

Harry's POV:

I tried to forget the conversation Sammie and I had yesterday, I really did.

'Harry' Zayn came up to me after the concert. 'Sammie, called me earlier. She's really upset about yesterday' he spoke in a calm tone. 'Zayn, I know she's your best friend. But please, just please don't give me a lecture right now' I walked off from him but he quickly grabbed me by the arm. 'Look man, I know it's been hard being away from her. Just have patient, soon you'll have more time together' he tried to reassure me.

I walked back to the dressing room and my phone started to ring.

'Hey, babe I just want to say sorry for yesterday. You were right I should have told you about the duet. I'm sorry' she empathised.

'Look, I'm sorry I yelled as well. It's just your always busy with your boys and now that were at the states, you can't even spare some time to see us. And yet the other girls are able to come down from the UK' I tried to argue.

'Harry please don't compare me to them, you know that with the show we've been busy' she started to raise her voice.

'Of course your boys need you, well whatever were off to hit the clubs' I spoke in a calm tone, not wanting the conversation to escalate into another fight

Samantha's POV:

'George how are you feeling?' I rubbed his back. 'Not too bad, but is it alright if I rest today and we can just practice tomorrow' he asked softly. 'Of course' I assured him. 'Well it looks like I have Sammie all to myself today' Josh smirked. 'Alright Josh. How about I meet you in the booth in 20 minutes' I smiled at him. 'And you mister' I pointed at George. 'Get back to your room and preserve your voice for tomorrow' I ordered him.

I decided to call Harry to try fix things up, I didn't like how our conversation ended last night. Thankfully he answered after the second ring.

'Hey, how was the club last night?' I happily asked.

'Sammie get to the point' he spoke and sucked out all the happiness out of my system. 'If you wanna know if I hooked up with anyone, then the answer is no. If you wanna know if I slept with anyone, then answer is no. Are you happy now, satisfied, ecstatic?' he raged.

'Harry I asked you a simple question in a nice manner why do you have to be such an asshole' I raised my voice over his rage.

'It wasn't the question Sammie, it was what you were implying' he thundered.

'Why is it that were both in the same country yet I feel were so far away?' I tried to hold back the tears.

'Don't blame this on me, your the one not making an effort' he pointed out.

'It's not like that, its ju-'.He interrupted 'Well how exactly is it Sammie, your off spending every minute of the day with those two and you refuse to even come and see me tomorrow'.

'Babe, George has been sick all week and it's only tomorrow that he'll be able to practice again. He really needs my help. Please don't make me pick between work and you' I tried to explain.

'Why because it will your boys that you pick?' he stated sarcastically.

'Well at least I'm not going off to clubs and looking for girls to bed' I blurted out

'Well there you go it finally came out at last' he said in a sharp tone.

'Babe I didn't mean to sa-'. He cut me off ' Look, just stop talking. Come to Vegas tomorrow if you want or not' then he hunged up.
