What Does it Mean? ~ COMPLETED
Crawling Back
Harmony’s POV
“Har, I have to talk to about something…” Harry trailed off at the end of his sentence. It’s our last day until we both get back to work. For me, schoolwork.
“About what?”
“The guys and I are leaving on tour soon.”
“How soon? How long are you going to be gone? Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” I questioned him.
“We leave for three months next Sunday. Simon just called to let us know today. I had no idea, I swear.”
“Oh… Three months?”
“Yeah, I really don’t want to leave you though.”
“I don’t want you to leave either, but you have to go do you job. I don’t want to stand in the way of that happening.”
“Well, let’s make this last week count then.”
♪Wednesday♪
Harry’s POV
“All right I am in the studio with the one and only Harry Styles. Say hi to the people Harry.”
“Hello London.” This is how I am making it up to Grimmy, by announcing my relationship with Harmony on his show. Management thought it was a good idea so here I am. It wasn’t going to come out right away, but I was still nervous about this. I had no idea how the fans were going to react to my news. Honestly, though, none of it matters as long as the world knows that Harmony Mattingly is mine.
“Alright, how about we play Call or Delete to start things off.”
“Okay.” I took my phone out.
“Now Harry start scrolling through your contact list and when I say stop, you have to call or delete whoever you land on. If you delete, you have to tell the listeners why, and if you call, you have to make up the most ridiculous story to tell. Ready?”
“I was born to scroll, Grim.”
“Haha, alright go.” I started to scroll through my contacts list. “Now stop!”
“Oh look, it’s Gemma. I’m going to call. What do I tell her?”
“Tell her that you are no longer considering her your sister, and you never want to talk to her again.”
“Okay, Grim, but I have to warn you, I may go deaf.” Gem is going to be so mad. I hit call and put it on speaker.
“Hey Haz. What’s up little brother? Is it girl problems again?”
“No Gem, and I no longer am your brother. You are not my sister, and I never want to talk to you again, ever.”
“Nice try, Grim, but that story is old. I gotta go Haz. Say hi to Harmony for me!” she said, then hung up.
“She is good.”
“Tell me about it.”
“Or you could tell me who Harmony is,” Grim countered. Here it goes. “Is she a friend?”
“You could say that. Or not…”
“So, is she like your best friend?”
I laugh, “No Grim, she is actually my girlfriend.”
“There you have it ladies. Harry Styles is off the market now. More details about this ‘Harmony’ after this new song ‘Live While We’re Young’ by One Direction.” There, it’s out. Everyone in London knows that I am with Harmony, and the rest of the world is close behind.
♪Saturday♪
Harmony’s POV
“I want to take you on one last date before we leave,” Harry stated when he walked through my door.
“Okay, where?”
“I was thinking… it could be a surprise.”
“Ugh, I hate you. I really thought you were going to tell me this time.”
“You will never learn.”
“What should I wear?”
“Something nice, not too fancy, but not too casual.”
“Okay, what time?”
“I’ll be back at 6,” and with that Harry left without another word. It’s only 10AM right now. How long does it take to get ready for a date?
I call Zayn and ask him if he wants to come over and watch a movie while I wait until I have to get ready. He agrees, and soon all of the boys minus Harry are outside my door along with El and Dani.
“Hi, they all wanted to come, so I figured, why not? It is our last day,” Zayn greets me.
“That’s fine. Come on in my people.”
“What are we going to watch?” Niall asked.
“I don’t know, but you aren’t allowed to pick it, and neither is Louis. Remember last time?” Liam asked. Never again…
“How about Insidious?” Zayn said.
“No!” I shouted.
“Why not?”
“Ever since I was forced to watch the Leprechaun when I was five, only FIVE, I have vowed to never watch a horror movie again.”
“But there is very distinct difference between the two and majority rules. We are watching Insidious.”
I didn’t argue because what choice do I have? I sat down between my parents – I mean Louis and Zayn. I hope this all goes well.
-
I don’t even think I saw a quarter of the movie. I hid my face behind Zayn after only being 5 minutes through the film. I only looked up like three times after that, and I was done with it. I hope I am never forced to do this again. At least it wasn’t dark when we were watching the movie or else I would have died.
“Okay, though I will miss you all dearly, you need to get out so I can get ready for my date. Dani, El, do you mind staying to help me get ready?”
“Absolutely! We’d love to help you,” El said.
“Bye guys!” I yelled before they shut the door.
I quickly took a shower after telling them what Harry told me I should wear. I let them go through my clothes to find something for me. They always know what’s right. I got out and wrapped a towel around my body and another towel around my head. I got out and looked at what they laid out for me.
“What do you think?” Dani asked.
“I love it! Thanks for helping me.”
“Anything for a sister like you. Now hurry and change, so we can do your hair and makeup!”
I go back to the bathroom, dry off, and change into the outfit. I allow them to come in, and Dani gets started on drying my hair. Then, she curls it while El puts makeup on my face. Not too much though; I honestly don’t use makeup, just a little mascara and lip-gloss. http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=79469978
“Aw… you look beautiful,” El says when they finish.
“Thanks El, but I couldn’t have looked like this without you both. Thank you.”
“Anything for you, Har. Now, we better leave before Harry gets here. We’ll see you later, so you can tell us all of the details,” Dani said and they left.
After a few minutes, a knock finally echoed throughout the apartment. I got up from my place on the couch, watching anything but SpongeBob, and went to answer the door, but it wasn’t just Harry…
“Harry?” I ask slowly. My eyes are deceiving me. That’s not Harry. That isn’t the same boy. And this… girl that has her arms wrapped around his neck… is all too familiar. No… It can’t be.
Harry looks up from his make out session with a girl, that isn’t me. How could he do this? And why is she so familiar to me?
“Harmony, this isn’t what it looks like,” Harry says.
“Oh really? Because it looks like you have a new girlfriend. I knew I would be stupid to trust you. I really thought you loved me, Harry, but, no, you didn’t. I’m just another one of your flings. Get out of my life Harry. Go have fun with this bitch. I never want to see you again.”
“Har let me explain! Please, this-“
“I’m a bitch? If anything you- wait… You look familiar,” the blonde bitch that made out with my EX-boyfriend said after cutting him off. She had some seriously deep thought on this before speaking again. “Oh my God! Is that you? HAM! How nice it is to see such a pathetic face like yours again. Glad to see me I’m guessing?” Then it hit me. It couldn’t be her.
“Veronica? No! Stay away from me!” Never again would I expect to see her again, the girl who bullied me since sophomore year of high school. The bitch who made my life miserable has now made it worse.
“Gladly; just stay away from my boyfriend, Ham. Too bad you don’t have any pig friends to help you now.” She once again started to kiss Harry.
That was it. I slammed the door in their faces. Tears came willingly down my face, and I didn’t hold back on them. I ran to my bedroom, throw off my shoes, and cry into the soft galaxy sheets that cover my bed. My life is horrible. Harry, the man I thought I loved, had proved me wrong. I am nothing to him. I never have been, and I am positive that I never will be.
And Veronica, how does she manage to crawl back into my life? She managed to turn my life back to the living hell it already was. What did I do wrong? Why does everything bad happen to me? First, my parents, and now I don’t even have a boyfriend, whom I thought was the one.
My phone keeps going off. Most of it is calls from Harry. My messaging box is almost full with his bullshit. Then, a text from Zayn catches my eye.
From Zayn:
What happened??? I heard yelling and your door slamming shut. I thought you were on a date with Harry. Call me! I’m worried about you :(
I half-heartedly drag my body to the bathroom to wipe tears and smeared makeup off of my face, and I look out of the peephole before walking out and knocking on Zayn’s door. He opens the door almost immediately. I look into his eyes filled with worry and collapse into his arms once again crying. He pulls me in the flat and closes the door. I pour my tears out onto his shirt.
“Shhh… It’s okay. Tell me what’s wrong…”
“Har, I have to talk to about something…” Harry trailed off at the end of his sentence. It’s our last day until we both get back to work. For me, schoolwork.
“About what?”
“The guys and I are leaving on tour soon.”
