"I found you." He murmurs. His voice is barely audible, but with the silence of the streets, I am able to hear him. He still looks the same - curly hair, green eyes, deep dimples and masculine body.
"You shouldn't be here." I whisper.
He cocks his head to the side slightly. "Why not?"
"You can't be here, Harry." I say a little louder. "You have to go and forget you saw me."
"No way!" His voice raises. "I finally found you and I don't plan on losing you again."
"Harry, I'll just go."
"I'll follow you."
"I'll hide."
"Then I'll tell Niall and we'll come back to look here." He argues.
I sigh and give up. "You can't tell him."
"Why not?"
"Because he can't know where I am, Harry. Not yet, anyway. I'll tell him, just not yet."
He sighs and opens his arms. "Can I at least get a hug?"
I smile. "That's the Harry I know and love." And so I run into his strong arms. He wraps himself around me as I tuck my face into the crook of his neck. I missed this. I miss being able to hug Harry. When we were friends with benefits we never really cuddled. It was more force every time I needed him. He didn't give in softly because I told him to not give in to my pleading while we were going at it.
"I missed you so much." He whimpers.
I sigh at his warmth. "I missed you too."
"Do you have go back to work?" He asks as we pull away.
"Nah. I'll just call up and say I felt really sick. My boss'll understand."
"Can I come to your house?"
I think about this for a second. Should I let him? I mean, he has found me now, but am I really ready for him to meet my kids? Well, my kids already know that he and the others are their uncles and they know that Niall is their father, but am I ready? I guess I should just find out. "Ok."
While Harry and I walk back to my house, I call Jeff and tell him the news. He tells me it's alright and that he hopes I get better before he bids me goodbye and hangs up.
"So, how have things been with you and Roxanne?" I ask to make conversation.
"Great! We've been really good, and I think I'm gonna ask her to marry me." He replies, excited clear in his voice.
"Harry, that's amazing!" Even though I haven't seen him in three years, I am really happy for him. I have seen him on the news and his relationship with Roxanne is everywhere. Violet and Louis are already engaged, but I, of course, don't know when the wedding is.
"How are things for you? Is living alone hard work?"
And because I'm not going to blurt that I'm not living alone, I simply smile and say, "I guess you could say that. How come you're in Ireland?"
"Visiting Niall, of course. We're on break and I haven't seen his family in too long, so I decided to fly with him here. Been here for about a week, but then Niall and I got into an argument this morning, and so I went for a walk. I guess I walked pretty far though."
"What was the argument about?"
"You. He was getting frustrated because he still hasn't found you. I was telling him to calm down and he snapped at me. It kind of escalated from there until I stormed out."
