Shattered

Harry's P.O.V-

Sometimes I wonder if I even have a brain! How could I be so stupid?! Of course she's upset with me! Of course she's a bit vague and distant! I didn't even ask her to be my girlfriend properly! But no worries, I have a plan!

The plan is to make her friends get her all perfect and fancy as if they were going to some expensive restaurant to celebrate their graduation after the ceremony. Of course I reserved the restaurant for her whole class to celebrate right after the ceremony, so she won't suspect a thing! Then, the teacher's say they hired a band to play during the celebration. You guessed it! One Direction! We go on stage and I serenade her with Strong, cause she told Simon once it was her favorite song from the new album. Then I officially ask her to be mine and pray she'll say yes!

It's perfect right? Alex, Angel's friend, came up with that idea. You really thought I came up with such a genius plan? I did tell you I didn't even ask her to be mine yet, right? Then you should've never expected me to think of such a romantic and fancy way of asking the most amazing girl to be mine.

But back to the present time. The guys and I are in Simon's office, discussing tour schedules and whatnot. All that annoying and boring stuff one has to do before actually starting a tour. Zayn and Liam are the ones discussion things with Simon, Niall is making tea, Louis is... Where is Louis? And I'm on my phone with Alex, talking about the last details through text messages.

"Harry, your input would be very welcome, you know?" Simon's voice interrupts my thoughts and I almost jump off the couch in surprise.

"Sorry, Uncle Simon, I was talking to Angel's friend about tonight's events..." I trail off hinting I was sorry.

"I know it's important, but so is your tour, and at the moment we have to discuss if we're going to really go to Rio, or not" He sighed exhausted.

"I understand..." A moment of silence is followed before I re-collect my thoughts and give my input.

"I think we should go to Rio. The Brazilian fans have waited long enough, and they are a very strong fan base, so why not?" I shrug. Simon thinks for a few seconds before agreeing and typing away furiously on his laptop.

"So for today that's all boys, Harry enjoy yourself, and be smart" Simon said sternly. I nodded and gulped slightly. Who knows what he'll do if I hurt Angel? Not that I think of hurting her or anything, but I need to be twice as careful.


It is now 6 p.m. Angel is probably getting ready with her friends, since the ceremony starts at 7 p.m. sharp and she can't be late. She'll be the one representing the students and making the speech. I'm not surprised, she was the best student they ever had!

Before this whole plan was put into action, I decided it would be best to ask Simon for his permission, again, and also ask Jake if he didn't mind me dating his mom. Can you imagine being a 7 year old and seeing your 20 year old mother dating? That would be a tad bit confusing, no? I just hope everything goes according to plan...

My phone rings and ID says it's Alex calling. She hasn't just helped me, she's helped the boys with multiple tasks, not to mention she's our new makeup artist and stylist for this tour. Angel is now working with Victoria's Secret and helping out with Channel as well. That girl has got some power!

"Hey!" I greet her.

"Haz, you're going to have to sing Strong, then sing Little Black Dress, cause lemme tell ya man, this girl is going to knock you out with her outfit tonight!" She giggled. I laughed at her choice of words and we talked a bit more about the whole plan and whatnot. I am not allowed to attend the ceremony unless I'm in a disguise, so that's what I'm working on now.

"I'll see you tonight, take care!" She said. I said a simple 'ok' and 'goodbye' and hung up and began getting ready myself. The ceremony was short and touching. Angel wrote a beautiful speech thanking everyone for their support, especially the families and teachers.

I ran out as soon as it was done and drove to the restaurant. Once I got there, the boys and I warmed up a bit before we were called onstage...



Angel's P.O.V-

"I still don't get why I had to wear this dress tonight..." I trailed off annoyed. The girls had made me put on a ridiculously elegant and sexy black dress and HUGE heels. I was trying to look simple tonight, but oh no, I had no choice apparently.

"Stop complaining! You look like a Goddess!" Alex exclaimed frustrated at me for being stubborn.

"Whatever" I rolled my eyes. Harry hadn't showed up at the graduation ceremony, neither did any of the other boys. I thought at least because of our friendship they would try, but I didn't get any texts nor calls so.... Dad showed up, along with his current girlfriend, whom I absolutely love, and Jake went home with Laura, Sammy and Matt for a sleepover. I need to thank Laura afterwards for that.

We were at a very fancy restaurant celebrating our graduation. It wasn't just our class, we had all the art department here along with their students and every single teacher. There was music playing, food and alcoholic beverages galore. In other words, it was a full out party with fancy looking people.

"May I get your attention please?" A teacher asked after tapping the microphone. We all turned to him and he began talking again.

"As you all know, tonight has been a very special night! You all graduated and if I may say this, it was an amazing experience to teach you all!" We all cheered and clapped at that. He waited for us to calm down and continued.

"We have a special band here to play for us, and Angelica Ruby Cowell, could you step closer to the stage please?" He asked. Everyone smirked in my direction and I was pretty freaked out by now. I did as I was told and walked up to the center closer to the stage. The teacher smiled down at me and continued.

"Ladies and gents, please welcome One Direction!" Everyone cheered and clapped and I just stood there not knowing how to react. I crossed my arms over my chest just they walked on. I raised an eyebrow and they all waved at me. I waved back and cracked a small smile. I felt my friends gather around me and Alex uncross my arms. Harry looked at me and gawked as if he had never seen me in a dress before.

"Shut your mouth Harry, you'll catch flies" Alex said, causing everyone to laugh and me and Harry to blush.

"Thanks, Alex!" He answered.

"This song, is dedicated to the most beautiful girl on this planet, Angel" He winked at me and they began singing Strong. I absolutely love that song, because it talks about how together they become strong and it's just plain out beautiful. Throughout the song, Harry kept his eyes on me and we never broke eye contact. I was so touched by this act of romance that I started tearing up a bit. Here he was, in his dashing suit, looking absolutely handsome, serenading me in front of all these people and in front of my dad. Plus, it was one of my favorite songs ever!

"Angel, I just wanted to say that I really do love you! And I'm sorry for being so stupid and not asking this before but, will you be mine?" He asked after they finished the song. I nodded, not holding back the tears anymore. Everyone cheered and Alex pushed on stage. I wrapped my arms around Harry's neck as he wrapped his around my waist. He then kissed me with passion and I responded the same way. We broke apart and I hugged the life out of him.

"I love you" I whispered in his ear.

"Not as much as I love you" He whispered back. Everyone around us was clapping and cheering and soon the boys began singing another song: Little Black Dress. I laughed at the irony and then it all clicked. Alex had chosen this dress for a purpose. That sneaky little snake...

The rest of the night was filled with laughter and music. Harry and I danced all night long and ever so often kissed each other. I was so happy to be able to call him mine and to be called his...
