Please Be Careful With My Heart

Harry's POV:

'You alright man?' Louis asked as we walked down the corridors of X-factor. I didn't reply. 'Harry, there's nothing you can do now, it's in the past' Liam tried to comfort me. 'Sammie was crying on the phone last night. She was apologising for being a bad girlfriend. She told me she would never be unfaithful to me. Gosh I feel so guilty' I told them.

'You'll get through this man, will be there you with you' Zayn placed an arm around my shoulder.

'Niallll' a girl screamed from behind. 'Demiii' Niall ran up to meet her halfway. 'I've missed you' Demi exclaimed. 'Hey Demi' Liam, Louis and Zayn all took turns to greet here. 'Hey boys, well their ready for you to rehearse now. And Harry, Sammie will be so excited to see you' she smiled. The boys all glanced at me.

'All right boys, ready? Lights, camera, action' the stage manager announced. Niall walked closer to the brink of the stage and started to sing 'You're so pretty when you cry, when you cry' in front of Demi.

My part soon came up and I tried hard to sing the words clearly, but my mouth seemed to have lost the words. Liam came up to me and gave me a pat on the back 'Come on let's do this' he whispered and then I softly joined in the chorus.

Louis sang the next verse and then it was my part again. 'Did I do something stupid?Yeah girl, if I blew it. Just te' 'I pulled the mic away and covered my face with my guilty hands. The music stopped. 'Harry, what's the matter?' Simon called out from the floor.

Luckily, Zayn came to my defence 'His just jet lag' he assured Simon. 'Alright, well can we just go through this at least once, then you guys are done'. I sighed and then nodded to him. The music started again and Niall kicked off the song.

'Sammie' Demi called out and my head turned towards the direction she was coming from. She smiled and gave me a wave. It was my turn to sing and I didn't know if I could even, then Zayn whispered from behind me 'You can do this'. I took a step forwards and started to sing 'Did I do something stupid? Yeah girl, if I blew it'.

During the whole rehearsal I tried avoiding making eye contact with Sammie as the guilt within me grew stronger and stronger.

Thankfully rehearsal was done.

My stomach twisted nervously as she slowly approached me on stage.'Hey babe' she leaned in and kiss me.I could feel the guilt bubbled within me. 'Alright love birds, get off my stage' Simon joked. Sammie chuckled and pulled away.

'So you ready to leave?' she asked. She wanted me to stay at her house for the night... I don't think I would be able to sleep through the night next to the girl who I've committed a crime against.

'Uum accctually, the boys want me to stay with them in the hotel, just for tonight' I glanced over to the boys who crinkled their eye brows out of confusion. I gritted my teeth at them, seeking for help. 'Oh yeah, cause we wanted to do some extra rehearsals, you know make tomorrow extra special' Louis explained. 'Oh, okay then. Well I'll just see you tomorrow then' she smiled at me. 'Yup tomorrow, bye' I started to walk off. 'Harry' she called after me. 'Don't I get a goodnight kiss' she asked gleefully. 'Of course' I replied and walked up to her. I slowly placed a delicate kiss on her lips before pulling away. She wrapped her arm around my neck and whispered 'I love you Harry'. I closed my eyes feeling guilty as ever. 'I love you too'.

Samantha's POV:

'How come Mr.Curly isn't sleeping here tonight?' Anna asked as she sat by my bed. 'The boys wanted him at the hotel to do some extra practise' I replied combing my hair. 'Is he okay? He seemed a little bit off today' she crinkled her eye brows. 'Yeah, I think it's just jet lag' I answered as I put my hair brush down.

'You know Anna, lately Harry and I have been fighting a lot, but I'm really trying to fix things up. He thinks that I'm being unfaithful to him because of how much time I spend with George and Josh, but I would never think of cheating on him. I love him so much, I don't wanna lose him. So after the show ends, I'm going to put aside work for a while just to be with him'.

Anna took my hands 'You've got such a pure heart, I just hope he doesn't take advantage of that'

'Well my dear, get to sleep, you need beauty rest' she started to fix the duvet around me as I settled for bed.

'You've worked so hard to get your two boys a place in the finals, you should be proud of your efforts' she placed a kiss on my forehead.

'Goodnight' she started to leave.

'Night Anna' I replied.
