The Fixing Procedure (Harry Styles)l WATTY'S 2017 l

- Part 11 -

"Or I am home?" He smirked. I didn't understand him. He pulled in front of the cafe and ordered pancakes for both of us.

"What are you doing here?" I asked while he was ordering.

"Do you want a shake with it? Coffee? She'll have a Cold Coffee Milkshake, make it strong and I'll have a black coffee," He told the waitress who kept eyeing him and biting her lips. I chose to ignore her, I had bigger battles to fight.

"Are you going to tell me?" I asked again.

"I thought, you weren't planning on studying psychology after your experience with me? What happened?" He laughed like it was some joke.

I didn't respond, keeping my face blank. The waitress kept our food on the table and walked away, still biting her glossed cherry lips. I knew she had her number stuck down his plate. I took a bite of my pancakes, relishing them. It had been a long time since I had eaten one. Harry kept looking at me while eating and smiling to himself, after that.

We finished our food quite fast and in silence. I guess, none of wanted to explain or deal with what had happened. "You didn't answer me? I thought I had removed every intention of you trying to fix people after me," He smirked.

I couldn't control it. This was Edward, but it was Harry, too. Knowing Edward, he couldn't have kept shut for so long, this was a different man. "You must find it funny but, I don't!" I got up and threw a bill and walked off. Harry stopped me, pulling my hand just outside the cafe.

"It's not funny," He said. I wanted to kiss him. I wanted to hug him, it was too much for me. "You know, you were the one who bailed me out! I do deserve an apology!" he said, as he matched my pace.

"You remember?" I stopped in my tracks.

"Everything finally found the box!" He said, smiling. "There was a reason I forgot you."

"Really? Why? Some sadistic joke? You know what, I can't do this!" I shook my head but, before I could walk away, he held me in his arms.

"I kidnapped you, I hurt you too, and you took it," he said, "I wanted to fix myself and give a chance for us to fix ourselves, at least that is what my head says," he kept him head on my shoulder. "Nothing makes sense to me, Eliza."

"What if I forget you?" Harry asked.

"What?" We were cleaning all his cameras and arranging them according to their dates.

"What if I don't remember you one day because I lose time. What if one day I wake up and nothing makes sense," He said.

"That won't happen," I kissed his cheek. "You know why? Because I'll be there right beside you, clearing things out."

We sat in his truck, wrapped up in blankets, "This is a nice truck," I said.

"She's my baby," He smiled. "Don't worry, you are too."

"Sure," I shook my head.

"It's a lot to process, Eliza," He continued. "I don't think I would have survived if an alternate side didn't take it for me. I was abused every month by that man, every month and my mother saw nothing," I rubbed his shoulders. "I have been trying to understand everything. The killing, the gang, everything and it's just something which, I want to get rid of now, you know."

I kissed his cheek and sat in his lap. We were parked beside the community park, in a shaded corner. He spent the day telling me about all he found out and tried to solve. It was a lot. Twenty-two years of his life worth shit, which he was coming to terms with now. "Doctors say that I have a choice," He said. "I can choose to forget the negative and focus on the positive. Start afresh, anew like a second chance that, I have been offered. And, that makes sense to me. The only thing in all of it that made sense to me is you."

"What?"

"I dreamt about you. Almost every other night and slowly joined the pieces. You are all that makes sense to me. All that I want to remember. Nothing else, nobody else," He said, holding my face. I wanted to cry. "Everyone gave up one but, you never did. I'm sorry for hurting you. I'm sorry for forgetting you but, I have been looking for this missing piece inside me which I still can't join and with you here, I feel fixed. I feel complete," Tears poured down his eyes. "I know, I hurt you. I can't forget the look on your face when I said that, I didn't remember you. But, you do say that everything happens for a reason. Maybe this was a chance to come to terms with ourselves," He said.

I kept my head on his chest. I loved him so much. It was my love with him which he remembered.

"Do you think you can give us a chance again? As Harry and Eliza? Because I love you. The Harry in me, the Edward in me, all of me loves you, and I'd give up everything for you," He said as I cried in his arms.

"You asked Aunty to stop me from seeing you. I was dying Harry, and you did what I was most scared of, you forgot me," I whimpered.

"I thought, I was doing you a favour. I thought I had ruined you. Letting go of me would give you clarity away from me," He held me in his arms, crying with me.

"You gave it a very good shot," I nodded, and he smiled.

"Please don't leave me again," I hugged him.

"Never again."

I sat sketching Edward, as he read his book. He was the perfect work of art that I wanted to capture with my skill.

"This book is shit!" He slammed it shut.

"Why?" I asked, laughing.

"I don't like sad endings, he didn't have to die!" he crossed his arms.

"It's reality," I shrugged.

"Are you giving me a hint, honey?" He smirked.

"I'm just telling you that, it's life, and there can be a time when I'm not there, and..." He stopped me by keeping his fingers on my lips.

"Wherever you'll go, I'll follow," He said, kissing them.

"For that, you'll have to get out of here. To get off here, you'll have to get fixed, and for that..." He picked me up and lay me on the bed and climbed on top of me.

"I know, I know, and you'll fix me. And, take me with you, won't you? You won't leave me behind," He said, sucking my neck.

"Not until you want me to," I confirmed.

"Well then, you're stuck with me." He nodded and threw his shirt away like a hero. "Forever."

"Forever it is," I laughed and pulled him close.
