Perfect To Me

I'll Be Coming Back For You

“I’m not going out tonight, Char! Now leave me alone!” I yelled at her as I slammed my bedroom door.

“You leave for Italy tomorrow; I just want to hang out with you!” Charlotte yelled as she followed me into my room.

“WHY!”

“Because! When you leave I start early classes and I won’t have as much free time as I do now!” Charlotte countered.

“Fine! But I’m not dressing up!” I yelled at her as I grabbed my purse off my bed and stomped out of my room.

“You’re such a child, and I don’t expect you to dress up.”

We locked up the apartment and headed out to the street where we hailed a cab.

“Hyde Park please,” Charlotte told the driver and he made his way to our destination.

“Is there an event going on tonight?” I curiously asked her as I watched downtown London pass by through the back seat of the cab.

“Yeah, a coworker of mine told me about this street performer, he’s supposedly really good!” Charlotte exclaimed.

“Maybe I could take some photos of his performance for the photo gallery?!” I questioned aloud. The rest of the ride to Hyde Park was spent in silence as I took in the sights.

“Abs, we’re here,” Charlotte said as she began to step out of the cab. I climbed out after her and we began our walk into Hyde Park. I got side tracked with taking photos and was in and out of conversation with Charlotte, I could tell she was getting a little irritated but she was putting up with it. She knows I haven’t been in the mood for things lately, with what happened with Harry and all. I just haven’t been feeling myself lately.

“So are you excited for Italy?” Charlotte asked me as we approached a park bench by the bird sanctuary.

“Extremely excited, I just know I’ll be able to capture some beautiful images,” I gushed as we sat down.

“Where do you go after Italy?”

“I go to Africa for two weeks, now that one I’m beyond excited for, yet really scared at the same time,” I confessed.

“How come?”

“I know I’m going to get super depressed at all the little kids living in bad conditions. That’s why I’m staying for two weeks, because I won’t just be taking photos, I’ll be working with a charity that helps families suffering from fatal illnesses like malaria,” I told her.

“That’s really cool. For a twenty year old you’re doing a lot of awesome things. I’m so proud of you,” Charlotte said as she pulled me into her side.

“Thanks, so where’s this performer?” I asked her, looking around and not seeing anyone.

“He should be here any minute, but in the meantime I’m gonna run to the bathroom,” Charlotte said as she stood up and quickly walked away. Out of the corner of my eye I saw two dark figures walking along the path from the other direction, coming my way.

“Charlotte! I’m gonna get raped!!” I screamed, probably a little too over dramatic. Once the figured fully emerged I saw my Irish best friend, Niall and that idiot next to him. “I’m gonna kill, Charlotte,” I said loud enough for all of us to hear.

“Abby, you’re here,” Harry said, as if he were out of breath.

“Only because I was tricked into coming,” I rudely said and got up to leave.

“Please don’t go, Abby. Hear me out?” Harry asked.

“Why should I? So I can hear you talk about how you don’t like my wardrobe choices, or how I’m always getting attention from other guys. I don’t wanna hear it, Harry.”

“That’s not why I want to talk to you,” Harry pleaded as he took a few steps closer, Niall trailing behind him.

“Then why do you?” I asked him, getting fed up.

“I want to apologize for the way I acted,” he confessed as he took one final step towards me, leaving a very small amount of space in between.

“Fine, I’m listening but I’m not making any promises of forgiving you,” I said, standing my ground.

“That’s all I ask is for you to listen,” Harry said.

“Go on then,” I told him with a flick of my wrist. Harry looked back at Niall and gave him a nod. Suddenly, Niall started strumming a few chords on his acoustic guitar and I heard Harry clear his throat.
When I look into your eyes
It's like watching the night sky
Or a beautiful sunrise
Well, there's so much they hold
And just like them old stars
I see that you've come so far
To be right where you are
How old is your soul?

As Harry sang, he kept a strong gaze on me, watching my every move. I couldn’t help but swell at the song choice, and not only that but knowing how much of a risk this is for him. To sing in public trying to get his girlfriend to forgive him for some petty fight, a fan could walk by at any moment and ruin this moment for him.

Well, I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space
To do some navigating
I'll be here patiently waiting
To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn
Some even fall to the earth
We've got a lot to learn
God knows we're worth it
No, I won't give up

Harry took one more step to close all the space in between, and so we stood chest to chest. He reached down and took my hand in his, without missing a note. I couldn’t help but let a few tears escape and Harry used his other hand to wipe them away with his thumb and allowed his hand to rest against my cheek.

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily
I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make
Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use
The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake
And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend
For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn
We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in
I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up, still looking up.

Well, I won't give up on us (no I'm not giving up)
God knows I'm tough enough (I am tough, I am loved)
We've got a lot to learn (we're alive, we are loved)
God knows we're worth it (and we're worth it)

I won't give up on us
Even if the skies get rough
I'm giving you all my love
I'm still looking up


Niall and him closed the song out, perfectly I might add and Harry stood there waiting for my response.

“You can’t expect me to forgive you just because you serenaded with me a very appropriate song, Harry,” I sternly told him.

“I know that,” He told him as he rubbed the back of my hand with his thumb. “I can only influence it a little bit, yeah?”

“What you did was wrong.”

“And I’m sorry for it, I stepped out of line,” he pleaded.

“It really hurt my feelings, Harry. You know how I feel about you,” I told him, another tear escaping.

“Please don’t cry,” he softly said.

“I don’t think you understand where I’m coming from though, Harry. As a girl, when I’m head over heels for a guy I want his attention all the time. So yeah, I’m gonna wear some revealing clothes but only because I want your eyes on me at all times.”

“You don’t need to show some skin to have my eyes on you, I already do. No matter what you wear, you will be the most beautiful girl in the room.”

“Even right now?” I asked him as I pointed to my outfit of choice.

“Especially right now! This is when you are the prettiest. In sweatpants, MY shirt, and a hoodie with your hair sloppily pulled back and not an ounce of make up on your face. This, this is the Abby I love to see.”

“Why? I look terrible,” I told him.

“Because it shows the real you, the Abby that’s comfortable with her natural beauty and wants to flaunt it,” Harry said with a bit of a chuckle in his voice.

“And because I’m lazy,” I smugly told him with a smirk on my face.

“Nobody said you were perfect…but you’re perfect for me.”

“You cornball! You stole that from Angus, Thongs & Perfect Snogging!” I said as I playfully shoved him.

“Does this mean you forgive me?” He asked as he pulled me against his chest again and stared into my eyes.

“On one condition,” I said to him and he signaled for me to go on. “If you don’t like something I’m doing, just tell me.”

“Got it, so you forgive me?” he asked again.

“And you have to trust our feelings for one another. You can’t just keep thinking I’m going to flirt with any guy that breathes my way,” I told him, sternly.

“Of course, and I expect the same from you,” He told me, referring to our explosion when I got home from Australia.

“You have all my trust. I forgive you, Harold,” I told him as I stood up on my tip toes and kissed him.

“Thank god! I don’t know what I’d do without you,” Harry said as he lifted me off my feet and spun me around. I couldn’t help but let a few giggles out at his childish reaction.

“You’re adorable,” I told him once he set me back on the ground.

“What do you say we head back to my place? I’ve got dinner waiting for us,” Harry said as he intertwined our fingers.

“I’d love that…but you have to give me a piggy back ride,” I told him and he quickly turned around so I could jump on his back.

“Do I get dinner, Harry?” Niall said from behind us. But before Harry could reply I slapped my hand over his mouth.

“Take Charlotte out to dinner! Charlotte meet Niall, Niall meet Charlotte!” I said as Harry took off running for the exit of the park.

“Are you trying to play matchmaker, Abigail?” Harry said once Niall was out of listening range.

“You know me so well,” I told him as he set me back on the ground and we walked side by side to his car.
