Through The Dark

I couldn't stop staring at Harry, he just looked so beautiful as always. I felt so hypnotized by him, it was weird.

Harry came over and sat down next to me beside the bus. I gave him a sad smile and then buried my head back down into my knees.

Then I heard the slight scuffing sound on the ground as Harry scooted closer to me and then placed his arm around me.

I lifted my head back up and gave him a confused look. He just smiled at me, largely as if he were trying to show me all of his perfect little teeth.

I laughed a bit and shook my head, while looking in the opposite direction from him.

"What's wrong?" he seriously asked me. I turned to face him again.

"I just...are you guys really going to let me visit my family and friends like I asked?" I asked Harry hopefully. He didn't even give a second to think on it before he replied.

"Of course, I can't imagine what you're going through...I can't go a day without speaking to my mum... and I'm truly sorry that I took it all away from you," he looked straight forward and avoided making eye contact with me," I never wanted your life to be a hell like this, Brooklyn,"

I was about to interrupt him but he already knew what I was thinking,
" and don't say it isn't because I know it is, which brings me back to another thought," he directed his gaze towards me,
"why did you choose to continue touring with us instead of returning to your old life?" he said.

I pondered on the thought for a moment. Why did I choose to stay? Why would I choose this life of pain and torture over my old, simple, normal life?

But in the back of my mind, somewhere, I truly knew the reason why. Besides all of the pain I've endured, besides all of the fear that's been coursing through my veins, something bigger than that burned inside of me. Something made everything worth it.

" I think I know why Harry...but I'm not sure I want to say it, because," I looked up at him," well part of the reason is because I want you to get better... but what I don't want to say is... I don't exactly know how you feel about me. I mean, am I just here because you need me to be or am I just here as another girl for you to--"

"No, no of course not, never," Harry interrupted me while slightly shaking his head.," at first, yeah, I needed someone because of...what I am...but now Brooklyn, I just..." he said but didn't finish his thought. It seemed he couldn't get the words right.

"Liam told me that he thinks you're in love with me," I said and it came out like word vomit. Harry's eyes shot over to mine. Oh no, oh no, I wish I could take that back, I really wish I could I just...

Harry then reached his hands over and grabbed both sides of my face and kissed me. I grabbed onto both of his wrists. This wasn't like the kiss that we've had before, it was more than that. More feelings, more passion, less protective...

It felt like the kiss lasted for a lifetime before I pulled away and Harry rested his forehead against mine.

"I think Liam's right," I heard Harry whisper before pulling himself to his feet. He stretched both of his arms out to help me up and grinned so cheekily. He pulled me to my feet and then wrapped an arm around my waist, guiding me back to the tour bus.

Before I walked into the door, I spun around and crashed into Harry. I didn't realize how close he was to me. I caught myself on both of his shoulders so I didn't fall to the ground.

"Oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you," I said and he looked at me curiously," you're coming back with me when we go to visit my family, you and all of the boys... it's part of the deee-al," I said and then ran inside of the tour bus before he could objectify.

I looked back at Harry and saw him run his hand through his hair with a grin on his face and slightly shake his head.

Oh yeah, who's in control now, Harry? I thought as I smirked to myself.

"Still me," I heard him say as he entered the bus,"do I have to prove it?" he asked with a suspicious smile on his face.

Maybe this whole tour thing couldn't be so bad, could it?
