Love In The City
♡ Chapter 22 ♡
Diana’s POV
I arrive in NYC and I instantly feel like I belong. This is my kinda city. I walk out of the airport and get a cab. The cab takes me to my flat and I pay him quickly before getting out. I run upstairs and almost open up the door to Harry’s place…well our old place, Harry’s place again I assume.
I walk into my apartment and jump on the couch like a kid. I roll off the couch onto the floor and look up at the ceiling.
What am I doing? Am I just throwing my life away? I’m not college or university educated and I don’t have much work experience. What the hell am I going to get a new job. Don’t get me wrong I love being a waitress but, I want something more meaningful. I think the Good Morning America interview might be my only hope. If I don’t get that job, I’m fucked.
I slowly get up and plug my phone into my speakers. I play This Won’t End Quietly but We The Committee. I let the music sync into my brain and I let myself think. When I listen to the music I feel like my mind is free and that I myself am free.
This has to change. I can’t just keep crying and acting depressed. I need to get a grip and move on. I look around and my apartment is slightly a mess. I pull out the vacuum and start to clean. I pretty much clean my entire apartment until it’s 1pm. Shit, my interview.
I open all the windows to the apartment before hopping in the shower. I quickly dry my hair and straighten it. I put on some casual work clothes and bring my brief case.
I walk to the GMA studio and my mind is amazed when I look around. This is my kind of place. Busy people, with busy lives always busy. Finally something that will help me take my mind off Harry.
I walk to the front desk and I’m greeted by a lady.
“Ms. Rose we’ve been expecting you, third floor to the left room 304.” The desk lady says before I can even speak.
“Oh, thank you!” I reply quickly. I do a little run to the elevator doors and when I walk inside it’s packed with people. I reach the third floor and I run out. I’m still slightly claustrophobic.
I walk into room 304 and the Producers of GMA are sitting infront of a long table.
“Hello Ms.Rose I’m Jeoff. I’m one of the producers of GMA and these are my other colleagues and other producers. We just wanted to talk to you before giving you the job.” He says smiling.
”Okay amazing!” I reply.
“So tell us about yourself.” He asks.
1 HOUR LATER.
“So you start tomorrow!” Jeoff says patting my back.
“Thank you so much Jeoff I promise you I won’t let you down!” I exclaim.
“No worries. We have a feeling that you will be able to bring up our rating. So your new segment is Celebrity Dish. This is where you will talk about celebrities and what’s new.” He explains again for the tenth time.
“Yup! From 10am -12pm.” I reply chirpily.
“Diana. I must warn you of one thing.” He adds as the elevator arrives.
“Yes?”
“You will need to talk about One Direction… you are aware of that yes?” he asks. I mentally face palm myself for not realizing that sooner. I mean for fucks sake they’re the biggest boy band in the fucking world, of course they’re going to be one of my main topics.
“Yes I’m aware.” I lie smiling.
“Great. See you tomorrow!” Jeoff says before the elevator closes and I’m on my way.
Great now I have to quit my waitress job. God, I hope they take it well.
ONE MONTH LATER.
I’m sitting here in the GMA studio scared out of my fucking mind. I know I shouldn’t be but I am. I knew this would happen but I needed the job to keep me preoccupied.
I watch the door anxiously waiting for them to arrive. I mean I know they’re the biggest boy band in the world but still. You can never prepare yourself for the heartache of seeing an ex after a long time.
The door flies open and I see Louis. I run up and give him a big hug.
“Hello Diana, lovely to see you!” he says kissing my cheek quickly.
“Good to see you too Louis!” I reply smiling.
“Oi! What about us?” Niall jokes embracing me in a hug.
“It’s great to see you all!” I say laughing. I then hug Liam and Zayn quickly before looking for Harry.
“Where is… Harry?” I ask slowly.
“Not sure, he was here a minute ago…” Louis says confused looking down the hallway.
I hear Liam mumble something but Zayn quickly nudges him.
“Want to start without him?” asks Niall trying to fix the situation.
“Well I can have four out of five of One Direction.” I reply quickly. It sounds bitchy so I add “Boss’s orders”
“We’ll find him don’t worry. Let’s all split up and meet back in this room in five.” Liam suggests.
“Good idea.” I reply. We’re all about to look for Harry when he appears.
“Hello.” He says awkwardly.
“Mate, we were just about to go looking for you! Where did ya go?” asks Niall. I look at Harry’s face and he looks so different. He’s grown out his hair and he looks tired. Having him this close makes my heart ache. I want to kiss his face so badly but I can’t. I’m dying over here and he has no idea.
“Uh, somewhere. Let’s get this interview over with eh?” he suggests as he plops down on the couch.
All the other boys follow and my camera man gives me the cue to start.
Harry’s POV ( LISTEN TO THIS WHILE WATCHING --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKAwIwjHwZI )
Diana does her little intro for the show and I watch her intensely. I can tell she’s nervous by the way she keeps tapping her foot. I wonder if she still loves me. I wonder if she knows that I still love her. Damn, she’s breaking my heart and she has no idea.
I sit quietly through the interview and listen. She asks about the band and the Where We Are tour. She mentions the success of Midnight Memories and the 2014 Teen Choice Awards. She also mentions the boys love interests and girlfriends. Then it’s my turn for a question.
“So, Harry. The girls on twitter want to know who’s got your heart.” She says smiling. Well fake smiling. I can always tell when she’s being sincere or not.
“Well…” I trail off. I already know the answer. It’s her. I love her. She’s got my heart. Not just one section of it. All of it.
“I’m just enjoying being single at the moment. The last girl I was with really fucked me up.” I reply. Her face goes red and the boys have gone silent. In fact the whole studio has gone from hushed to deadly silent.
“Well, ain’t that a shame.” She recovers.
”Yah.” I mumble awkwardly. Liam nudges me and I roll my eyes.
“Well that’s all the time we have! Thanks so much to Louis, Niall, Liam, Zayn and Harold for coming in today for the interview. It’s been great!”
All the other boys thank her and smile but I just wave at the camera. Fuck managements going to give me shit for swearing on TV. Shit.
Instead of saying goodbye like the rest of the boys I leave the GMA studio ASAP. I can’t be in the same room with her for this long without crying.
I get to my hotel room and I pull out a blunt. I light it up and let the smoke go to my lungs. I can feel my brain slowly relaxing and I feel at peace for a moment.
I used to be clean and stay away from drugs but now I like the feeling of marijuana. It calms me down. Plus, it’s the only drug I can really take without getting super addicted. I’m not that insane.
I close my eyes and take another puff of the weed and let my mind explore itself.
Unfortunately Diana is the only thing that’s in my mind. I can’t stop thinking about her. It doesn’t matter where I am, or what I’m doing. I just think of her.
Her perfect heart, skin, hair, smile, smell, eyes, outfits, laugh, just everything.
Sometimes I think getting high only makes me miss her worse, then again I feel less pain and right now. The pain is too much.
Notes
I cant access the notes right now so I'll write them here. So I got back from Ohio and it was amazayn! Anyways I feel like there haven't been as many comments and that really upsets me :( Do you guys not like the story any-more? Just say the word and I will stop. I write for myself but if my readers don't enjoy one of my stories anymore I can write something new if ya like.
So please Comment letting me know
