Harry Styles Dirty Imagine

Part 3: Kindness and Weakness

You were about to give in, to his charm and his vulnerability, but Niall held your arm cautious of your bruises. It was then that he gave you his protective look that you realized the man before you is not Harry at the moment. It is the man that inflicted pain on to you, even though he knows of your disastrous past. After noticing Niall's protective stance, you looked around and realized Louis and Zayn had a very defensive, almost guard- like pose. It seemed they were all ready to protect you. You stopped crying and wiped your tears, trying to be strong for yourself.

Everyone was just silently sitting again, watching your every move, it seemed. You felt awkward and misplaced as you stood in front of them, it was a peculiar feeling. Harry tried getting up off the bed to come towards you, but Niall took you out of the room slowly by your arm that he was already attached to. He gave Harry a look to which you could not read and as you left, the door was slowly closed and you were left to wonder what was happening in there?

"Niall.. what are we doing.. why are you being so quiet?" You rushed, as he was still walking slowly to his room, from what you could see.

"Y/N) explain to me what happened in there.. You can trust me, I promise," He said opening his door, his arm was still lightly pulling yours in.

He left to grab you some ice and you were left alone in his room. You felt uncomfortable and wanted to go back to Harry.. But how could you, how could you ever trust him again? You thought you found the one you love, the one that would never ever hurt you like your father once did. But, turns out he was just like all the others, and you didn't care if he meant to hurt you or not.

Avoiding Harry and resisting his charm was a problem, you loved him with all your heart, and that would never change.

Niall coughed trying to grasp your attention as he entered the room and you sat down on his bed, avoiding his gaze. He sat there intently watching you as you spoke the whole story of what happened several minutes earlier.

His mouth was agape leaving you staring at your feet. "Harry.. the Harry we know, said all those horrible things and hi-.." he stumbled over his words. "hit you?"

You nodded your head slowly. He sat down on the bed beside you and pulled you into his chest. His heartbeat was faster than ever, you gripped his shirt, as you looked into his eyes in confusion. "N-Niall are you okay?"

"I'm not okay.. I live with someone I thought I knew but turns out he's just scum, and I could treat you a thousand times better.." He said kissing your forehead as you laid your head on top of his chest. You stopped crying and looked up at him.

"Niall.. what are you trying to say?" You wondered, scared of what his answer might be, you already had enough problems, you didn't need another. You lifted your head from his chest pushing up with your arms and winced at the pain.

Niall looked at you with worried eyes and they were glossy, it looked like he was going to cry. He placed your head back on his chest, worried that you were hurting.

"I have always wanted you to be mine (Y/N), I would treat you like a princess, and Harry treated you like a girlfriend, but nothing special. Just someone to show off.." He said, looking as if he almost regretted his words.

You were filled with confusion, wondering what it is about you that makes him love you too. You're nothing special, you're not drop dead gorgeous, you're not perfect, at least you thought so. You had no idea what to say, you never knew Niall felt this way, and yea it was sweet, but you hated him for it. You were just hit by the man you love because of another mans jealousy, only to find that even another man loves you?! You felt hatred run through your veins but nothing came out of your mouth. Niall was like a brother to you, though the words he said made your heart flutter. It was sweet, but you didn't want to hear it. The contradictions in your head made you dizzy, but there was one thing you were sure of: You were madly deeply in love with Harry.

"Niall I am in love with Harry, and he may not treat me like a princess but he is my world and I am his. I think he only reacted that way because he was afraid of losing me... I won't go back to him of course but I know that he loves me and I couldn't possibly do that to him..." You replied uncertain of your words.

"(Y/N) don't you see?!! If he loved you he would never even think of hurting you, no matter how angry he gets, if you don't want to be with me then.. that's fine, I understand but.. love requires no pain, he doesn't love you, I love you (Y/N) I do.."

Just then Harry burst into the door with Louis, but he couldn't stop Harry's rampage. You expected more pain so you flinched, but he did not hurt you he went for Niall, knocking him out.

You screamed as Niall's body went limp and fell back to his bed. You were about to yell at Harry before he spoke.

"(Y/N) I DO LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART AND I WILL NEVER LET YOU GO. You are my one and only and I NEED you. I made an unforgivable, stupid mistake back there and let my anger get the best of me. I have no idea why I would actually believe you would cheat on me, and I hate myself for just blaming you and not my BEST FRIEND in the first place. I don't even know if I can forgive him for lying to me, and I know you won't be able to trust me for what I did, but I'm BEGGING you, please don't leave me! We can work this out," He pleaded almost falling to his knees. He was shaking.

The boys decided to leave the room, with Louis giving you a nod to let you know he'd be waiting outside, just in case. Niall was still laying there lifeless.

"Harry.. I.. I just don't know anymore, I can't be the person I used to be. I can't let everyone walk all over me, let them apologize and do it all over again." You gasped quietly, you were surprised, you couldn't believe you had the guts to tell him how you really felt.

"Baby I will never ever hurt you again, I've just been stressed lately and I blamed all of it, including the lie on you! I promise you are my life, and without you I can't live it. Please, please I'm begging on my knees don't leave me!" He shouted, putting his hands together and falling on his knees. You stepped back, just taking in all of the mess that your life has just become.

You couldn't help but get butterflies from how sweet he was, though he hurt you, you couldn't deny it. The love you felt for him went past all boundaries, it made you crazy and stupid. Your love made you say and do things you swore you never would before, but for you, that was okay.

You couldn't help but love him. He was the man who found you in that club, the night you left, the night you left all the pain and suffering, the night he was a gentlemen, and not a pig excited to fuck a drunk girl. You knew who he really was, the man you loved, but you were scared the man from an hour ago would one day come back.

"Uhhhh," you heard a groan from behind you as Niall awoke, holding his bruised jaw. "Ow what the fuck happend.?" Niall questioned until a look of rememberance showed on his face once he saw Harry. "Harry.. why the fuck-"

You cut him off. "He was just protecting me Niall, I'm sorry and I feel just terrible that it came to this. But I can't be with you... I do love you Niall, you're the sweetest most kind man I know, but I love you as a brother, And I'm with Harry.." You said slowly not realizing your words and cupped your mouth. You didn't want Harry back.. did you?

Harry smiled ear to ear and embraced you with a hug, getting off his knees, but once again you flinched, realizing the old 'scared to death of every movement' you is back. You were mad that Harry even thought he could touch you right then, but you let it happen.

Niall just stood there clenching his jaw, with a pained expression. "I have to go..." He sounded, with an angry voice.

Harry was still hugging you, it was too much for you to handle at the moment. So you unravled his arms and walked a foot towards Niall.

"Niall, where are you going? Are you okay?" You said, as the concern showed in your voice.

"I'm fine, bye," He said throwing you off with his tone. He looked back at you one more time before storming out, swinging the door open and pushing through the boys.
