Don't Let Me Go (Sequel to 'I don't dare')

Chapter 2 - Help From A Male Friend

Chapter 2

“and then I was thinking that maybe we should have Lux carrying a bag with roseleafs that she’s spreading across the isle before I step in” I said to Harry who was almost sleeping on the other side.

“uhuu” was all he said as he looked at me with love in his eyes. It’s crazy how I can see that through a computerscreen.

“Harry? Are you tired?” a tired smile appeared on his face when he adjsted his screen a bit as he changed into a more comfortable position.

“Of hearing wedding plans, yes. Looking at you, no. I miss you too much” to hear him say those words actually meant the world to me. Sometimes it just felt like I was forcing Harry to be my boyfriend, just like he didn’t want it at all. But those times when he said that he loved me and that he actually missed me, made my whole inside go warm. I loved him so damn much.

“I miss you too. But the worst thing is that you are not coming home until 58 days. Which is a bit less then two months. You have only been away for three days Harry” I stroke the screen in an attempt to touch him, but then I remembered that it was only a moving picture of Harry. Not really him.

“Yeah I know. That’s too bad. I gotta leave now, though. They are telling me to shut up. Need to sleep” I hate the feeling when we have to hang up.

“Okay, I’ll call you later” I said, waving to him, or to the camera...

“Sure! Bye, love you” I sent a blow kiss to him before he hung up. Can’t believe it’s only been two days. Ugh. I hate this.

Right when I was about to turn of all the lights in the apartment and to get some sleep, my phone buzzed.

Jason: Hi what's up? Long time no see :(

At prom, when Jason had seen me and Harry kissing, he was of course hurt, but I told him the whole story and somehow he was ok with it. He said something like: “there’s nothing I can do anyways, right?” and then he tried to play it off, but I swear he was hurt down to the bottom of his heart and I feel so bad about it. But, what am I suppose to do? Lie to him and cheat on him instead? That was Jason’s reaction, but yo should’ve seen Julie. She was furious! She called me a bitch, slut and to top it of even a whore. Yeah, then she slapped me and I haven’t seen her since then. But Harry told me that I didn’t have to worry about her and I haven’t since then actually.

Me: Not much, just planning the wedding :)

Another five minutes went by before he answered.

Jason: Need any help?

As much as I wanted to say no, I couldn’t. He was a friend, so to help would be nothing bad och wrong. It would be really good actually, I have a lot of things I need to buy, and to have a strong guy to help me to carry stuff should actually be really good. Yes, I need his help.

Me: Only if you want to:) I am going shopping tomorrow. Wanna join?

After that we had settled the times and so on, I brushed my theeth, washed my face and then I crawled down to bed. I am so used to feel Harry’s arm snake around my waist, but not today. Or tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow. Only 58 days left. Only 58 days...
