-One Day Later-

•H a r r y•
It is often in times that I wonder if Chassidy has found her another, moved on finally, and is just happy. But I know she hasn’t, because Liam keeps me constantly updated on her.
Even knowing all of the things about her currently, my mind still drifts off and believes she’s in someone else’s arms, laughing at someone else’s jokes, smiling at someone else’s sweet gestures, loving someone else..
It hurts my soul, my heart. But if it was real, it’s my fault I’m hurting. I’ve ran with the wrong people in the past that put in me horrible situations, and those situations ruined not only my life, but the only girl I have ever loved and ever will love.
There were only a few reasons why I came back to Orlando: I had to see Chassidy – the many years and the pain had become too much for my heart, my soul, I had to before I went insane, the second – I had to protect the only thing I loved in this damn world, finally – I chose to be happy.
Happiness is something I can only find with the presence of my love, my beautiful girl – she made me so happy and made me feel like I was worth something. All my life I’ve been pushed to the side and underestimated, I have horrible reputations and people have bad opinions about me.
I do bad things, I let my demons overtake me too much – but when I’m with Chassidy I just feel like myself, like the real me. I do things with her that I could never do with anyone else.
She brings out the good in me, the part I like. She knows who I really am and she’s seen me in my best times, and in some of my worst. But she loves me anyways and that’s all I’ve ever wanted.
Since the first day Chassidy has been my everything – I can’t survive without her and I have no clue how I did for four years.
Now is the time to change my life and hers, I have been gone far too long and now’s the time that I must return and make it better for both of us, but mainly her.

I hesitate at first to knock, but after a second of being nervously frozen at the door I just go with it and knock a few times.
As the seconds pass, my palms begin to sweat and I feel a tad dizzy – only because I know Adam is not here right now – and he didn’t know the exact time he’d come back – and he told me Chassidy and Rebecca would be the only ones to answer the door. There’s a high chance Chassidy will open this door and see me first and it makes me nervous.
Within the next second the door opens, I take a deep breath as I open my eyes and see Mrs. James standing there, a shocked look on her face as she stares at me.
I gulp gently as her hand slowly covers her mouth in awe, she was more shocked than I was that I’m standing in front of her right now and that I’m actually here.
‘’You’re.. here.’’ She says as she drops her hand and steps closer to me, staring up at me still in shock.
‘’Yes mam.. I promised I’d.. come back one day.’’ I whispered lightly as she threw her arms around my neck.
Rebecca was like my mother, and had been for so long, since I didn’t have one anymore. She meant a lot to me and I love her. I was ten when I came to live with my dad in Orlando, my mother and sister were all the way in London for years, I had no one to be a mother to me, no one but Rebecca James, and she and I both know I gladly appreciate her.
- I put my arms around her and squeeze her tight as she began to cry, her forehead leaned against my shoulder.
‘’I thought you’d never come back.’’ She mumbles into my ear as she holds me tight.
I gulp gently, knowing how hard this is for her and I both to process right now, ‘’I don’t break promises.’’
Rebecca leaned back, releasing me as she grabbed my left hand and brought it closer to her, ‘’You’re still wearing the ring.’’ She smiles gently as she sees the promise ring on my middle finger.
‘’Of course, haven’t taken it off since I gave hers to her.’’ I say.
‘’She hasn’t either.’’ Rebecca sighs as she drops my hand, ‘’She’s upstairs, you know the way.’’
I nod gently as she steps into house and gestures for me to go on up to Chassidy’s bedroom. Nothing about this house has changed, still smells like fresh cotton and still gives me those home sweet home vibes.
As Rebecca shuts the door and goes into the kitchen, I take this time to take a deep breath, exhaling slowly. This was a huge moment for me, it’s going to be hard but surely worth it.

I had been at the door for nearly a minute now – I was nervous and afraid she wouldn’t want anything to do with me anymore. It’s hard to think about that times, that maybe she’s changed her mind and her entire heart. But yet I know that that’s not true. I hope at least.
Gently, I knock on the door – just three times, that was all. I take a deep as I await her appearance behind the door. The seconds go by, I close my eyes.
I knock three more times, a tad harder this time – just in case she didn’t hear them the first time. I squeeze my eyes tighter, in a matter of seconds all of these memories I’ve had with her flew by in my mind, reminding me of the reason I’m standing here, the reason I’m still alive. The only damn reason I do anything anymore.
Slowly, my eyes open – hoping to see her standing there with the door open, but all I saw was the white wood door, still sealed.
“Harry?’’ I heard Rebecca’s voice say behind me, ‘’Are you okay?’’
I turn around slowly, seeing her stand there with her lips rolled in, she looked nervous to even talk to me right now. I sigh gently, knowing that I have fucking idea if I’m okay or not. I don’t know anything right now, nothing at all really.
‘’I.. I don’t know.’’ I gulp slightly as I turn back to the shut bedroom door.
Behind this door hides a room I spent entirely too much time in – but every little second that I did only made me feel better. That room belongs to the girl I spent incredibly too much time with, but I know every second I spent with her made her happy, and knowing she was happy was all I ever wanted in life. It’s all I’ll ever want.
‘’You can.. you can go on in.. she might be asleep, love.’’ Rebecca’s hand touches my shoulder – from the corner of my eye I can see her standing there beside me, a light smile on her face as she looks over at me.
‘’I.. I don’t want to.. disturb her.’’ I shrug gently, staring at the door handle.
‘’I’m sure she won’t mind..’’ Rebecca says as she squeezes my shoulder before removing her hand and walking away, back downstairs I’m sure.
‘’I hope not.’’ I whisper to myself as I put my hand on the knob.
Hesitating to turn it, I take a deep breath and slowly release it. Behind this door awaits the most beautiful girl in the entire world – the only thing I’ve ever loved, the only thing that makes me smile, the only thing that loves me. My everything waits inside that room.
She’s not waiting for tomorrow. She’s not waiting for the sun to set, or for the moon to rise. She’s not waiting for cloudy days or starry nights. She’s not waiting for the season to end, and she’s not waiting for eternity to begin.

She’s waiting on my return.
