Natalie’s POV

.

.

.

I open and close the door to Lucy’s room, making sure that I don’t hurt Niall. He looks up at me.

“Is she..?”

“She’s really upset.”

“Should I go see her?”

“No. Wait for her to see you.”

“Ok.” He said. “I’ll just sit here until she comes out.”

I nod and slowly walk down the stairs, clenching my fist.

I open the door and see Zayn, Louis and Liam playing scrabble.

“Have you guys seen Harry?”

They all shake their heads.

I sigh and go back upstairs.

I open the door to the guest room and see Harry curled up in a ball on the bed, He looks alone and defeated.

“Harry?” I ask.

He looks up when he sees me and an expression of relief crosses his face.

“Is Lucy… Ok?” he asks nervously.

“She’s fine.” I snap. “She’s just been bawling her eyes out for the last thirty minuets.”

He groans and puts his head in between his knees.

“Niall is up there, patiently waiting for her to come down… and most of it wasn’t even his fault. Why aren’t you up there?”

“Because… Then I’d have to tell her the truth.”

“The Truth?”

“When she overheard our conversation…. She immediately assumed I was talking about Hannah. I wasn’t. I was talking about her.”

“Well… Why can’t you tell her?”

“Because I know that she doesn’t think about me that way. And I don’t want to… get rejected.”

I sigh. “You’re gonna have to tell her. Otherwise she’s never gonna talk to you.”

“Yeah, But she has Niall.” Says Harry bitterly. “He’ll look after her.”

“He will. But she needs you.”

“Why?”

“Because…. Because you mean everything to her.”

“I do?” he says, sitting up.

“Yes. You’ve already hurt her once.”

“How?”

“By leaving her.”

“And then you come back, But you don’t even come back for her. You come back because you have to.”

“But, I-“

“And then you move your friends in, invade her privacy, Yell at her until she runs out crying to the only place she feels safe.”

“She went to our playground?” he asks in a whisper.

“Yes. But you can’t keep ignoring your mistakes, You can’t keep being a coward.”

“I’m not.”

“Yes, You are! You are the only person who can make her cry. The only person in world. So why do you make her cry over and over again?”

“I am?”

I roll my eyes and say bitterly. “Don’t pretend you didn’t notice.”

“I didn’t.”

“She worshiped you. And what did you do to her?”

“I..” he says, realizing how awful he’s been.

“Exactly.” I say, marching out of there.

I walk downstairs and Liam looks up and meets my gaze.

He immediately knows something’s wrong.

“I’m done.” He says, getting up.

I walk over to him and he reaches out for my hand.

He brings me outside and we sit side-by-side on the trampoline.

I rest my head against his, yawning.

Somehow, After everything today… I’m tired.

“What’s wrong?” he asks.

“I can’t say.” I whisper.

“Ok.” He murmurs and slips and arm across my waist.

“Liam?” I say.

“Yes?”

“Thank you.”

“for what?”

“For being you.”

Because with him, there’s no drama. With him, I know I’ve made the right choice.

Gosh… even in my head that sounds corny.
