❝ when i was your man ❞

Story Title: When I Was Your Man

Pairings: Louis Tomlinson/ Harry Styles, Harry Styles/ Nick Grimshaw

Author: Ivy

Side Notes: Just wanted to summarize this for y'all. It's just basically based on 'When I Was Your Man' by Bruno Mars and just different lines equal different scenes, sort of hard to explain but you'll get it when you read it I promise (the whole thing will be in louis' pov)

"same bed but if feels just a little bit bigger now"

i woke up, blinking at the sudden brightness

i then turned around, half expecting for harry to be there

but he wasn't

he never was

it's been 2 months since our break up

i wasn't taking it lightly

my mates noticed 

everyone did

my bed felt so big

and cold

and empty

"our song on the radio but it don't sound the same"

i was in the car

listening to songs on the radio

zayn was there

liam was there

niall was there

but harry wasn't 

he never was

and when our song came on the radio

i felt cold

and i felt empty

"when our friends talk about you all it does is just tear me down"

"how's harry?" zayn asked

"he's fine" nick replied, sipping his coffee

my heart broke

he's fine

he's fine without me

i felt cold

and i felt empty

"i should have bought you flowers"

it was 10 p.m

i couldn't sleep

and now i'm just wondering 

i'm wondering the streets of london

alone

alone

no harry

no no-one

just me

but suddenly there he was

with a brown haired lad

named nick grimshaw

he was buying harry flowers

and i felt cold

and empty

oh so empty

"take you to every party 'cause all you wanted to do was dance"

i was in a bar

drowning in shots

of what? i don't remember

everything was blurry

except for him

he was there, in the distance

dancing

dancing with someone else

not with me

and i felt cold

and empty

"although it hurts, i'll be the first to say that i was wrong"

"h-harry"

i stuttered into my phone

"louis?"

"harry..."

"what's wrong?"

"i miss you"

"what?"

"i miss you and i know it's my fault"

"i know that it's your fault as well"

"a-and i'm sorry haz"

"for what?"

"for ruining everything"

"because i love you"

"i love you so much"

"i don't know what you want me to say"

"tell me that you love me too godamnit!"

"i-i can't lou" 

and with that he hung up

i felt cold 

and empty

"i just want you to know

i hope he buys you flowers

i hope he holds you hand

gives you all his hours

when he has the chance

takes you to every party

'cause i remember how much you loved to dance

do all the things i should have done

when i was your man..."
