My Life in the Spotlight (5SOS/One Direction Fan Fic) #Wattys2017

Hurting

"I'm so sorry Bindi. Please don't cry."

"It's okay. I have to get over him. Ummm how have they been?"

"Harry is a wreck without you, but the boys are doing well. They are mad that you left without saying goodbye. You could at least text them and tell them your okay."

"No that's okay. You guys can tell them though. I'm not holding you to your promises anymore."

"Ummm alright. Bindi please if you need anything don't hesitate to call us. We are coming up to visit you when we get back."

"Alright sounds like fun! I gotta go and get my room all ready. I'll talk to you guys later. I love you Ash!" 

"Love you too Di!" With that I ended the call. I missed my family so much. I got up and put my photo that I have them onto the top of drawers. Next I started to hang up all of my decorations for the room and then I made my bed. By the time I was done my room looked so girly and it was dinner time. I walked out of my room heading for the stairs. I was so deep in thought again that I didn't notice that I had bumped into the same person. I fell backwards onto my butt.

"We meeet again. I forgot to introduce myself last time. My name is Liam." I started to get all teary eyed and it made me think of Liam and how much I missed the boys.

"I'm Bindi." He helped me up onto my feet again and was walking alongside me.

"I'm sorry to make you cry. Please don't."

"It's okay. It's just I know someone else named Liam and we didn't exactly leave eachother in the best of terms."

"I'm sorry Bindi. Say would you like to get off campus and get pizza with me?"

"Is this a date?"

"No just think of this as friends hanging out getting to know each other."

"Okay that sounds nice." I smile up at him. He takes my hand and leads me off campus to a little pizzeria. It smells so nice when we walk in. I didn't even notice myself drooling until I heard some laughter from next to me.

"Here I think you are drooling." I took the napkin and wiped off the drool. Liam ended up ordering a plain pie that we shared. He wouldn't let me pay even though I insisted. We talked for about two hours about everything. I was starting to like him, but every time I looked at him my mind would bring up a certain curly haired boy instead. Why couldn't I let go of Harry and move on? 

It's about two weeks later and Liam and I have now been on two dates. He and I are officially going out. Classes have started and my brother is coming home today. I was in class when I heard my name being spoken over the loud speakers. I got up and walked to the office. When I opened it there were four boys there all smiling. I ran into their welcoming arms as I hugged them back.

"Ash I missed you!"

"Aww Bins I missed you too. How's college?"

"It's great. I met someone."

"Oh who?"

"His name is Liam. He lives two doors down from me."

"Liam that name sounds familiar."

"Guys guys. Stop I have gotten over them. As much as I miss them I have moved on."

"That's great. You deserve to be happy. Anyway we wanted to tell you that we are going to take you out tonight as a welcome back thing."

"Alright I'll be ready."

"We gotta go though sis. We have an interview to get to." He kissed my forehead and walked out of the room. I waited five minutes and then left to go to my next class. I needed a coffee fix first so I went to the nearest Starbucks. That's when I saw it a certain face that I tried so hard to get out of my head walking and kissing another girl. I ran back to my dorm and collapsed onto my bed in tears. I just wanted to hear his voice again. I called his phone hoping he wouldn't answer. I waited and waited for his voice mail, but with my luck he picked up.

"Hello." His voice was the same as I remembered it even though it had a hint of sadness in it.

"Harry?"

"Bindi?"

"Yes it's me. I saw your picture in the newspaper with another girl."

"Oh yeah management wanted me to go out with her." 

"Oh okay."

"Have you been crying?"

"No I gotta go Harry. Bye." I hung up on him and cried some more. Why did I do that? I was just hurting myself by calling him. He was in my past and now I had to look forward to the future ahead of me. 

Harry's POV

I heard my phone vibrating and I went to pick it up without looking at who was calling. 

"Hello." I knew that voice. Someone was playing a prank on me. Then I heard her ask if it was me.

"Harry." Why was she asking if it was me?

"Bindi." This was my angel the love of my life on the other end. I then heard something I hoped she would never see. She was asking me about my date with Kendall. I knew those paps would print something like that in the paper. I told her the truth about management wanting me to go out with her. I knew I had hurt her, but she hurt me first. I could tell she was crying on the other end. I knew I sounded pretty shitty too, but she just didn't call me out on it. Once I said I asked her if she was she hung up on me. I dropped my phone to the ground and when I tried to call her back it went straight to voicemail. What do I do now?
