Lost

I hung up. My eyes started to water. Then tears were streaming down my face. I sat at the edge of my bed, head in my hands, sobbing. Genevieve, I loved her, she loved me. So perfect—everything about her. Her hair, her eyes—everything. But I’m about to lose her. And I’ll never see her again.

Harry walked into the room. “What’s wrong?” He asked.

“Genevieve is moving to Australia.” I almost couldn’t finish the sentence because I was sobbing so hard.

“Wh… what? She’s moving?” Harry asked, surprised. I nodded in response, because I was crying so hard that I couldn’t talk. “It’s alright, mate. Everything will be alright.” Harry said, in a comforting voice.

‘Harry will always be with me. I’ll never lose him. Someone so kind and generous would never leave me.’ I thought. “Do you need some alone time?” Harry asked. Harry always understood my feelings. I nodded, and he left the room.

I cried harder than I had in a long time. I cried myself to sleep, I cried the next morning at breakfast, and I cried on my way to the airport, to say my last goodbye to Genevieve.

We pulled up to the airport, and I was still crying. Photographers awaited us there, and as I got out of the car, they started snapping pictures of me crying. But I didn’t care. Genevieve was leaving, and I couldn’t do anything about it. “Louis! Louis! Look Here!” Everyone was yelling. But I just looked straight ahead, ignoring them.

We approached the door to the airport, where Genevieve was waiting for me. She hugged me, then kissed my cheek. She whispered into my cheek, “I will always love you.” Then her beautiful smile came next. Those stunningly white teeth, straight as can be, and those perfectly curved lips? They were all on perfect Genevieve. And on the ‘perfect Genevieve’ that I was never going to see again.

I cried even harder as we walked back to the car. I was going away from the one I loved most. Away from the most perfect girl in in the world. Away from Genevieve.
We approached the car, and we all got inside. The driver started the car, and off we went. Farther and farther away from Genevieve.

Harry, who was sitting next to me, was comforting me. He always knew what it was like to be me. He always knew what to do when he was around me. He always knew what to say, and how to react to something. And that is why Harry is my very best friend.

As we pulled up to the house, my family was waiting at the front door with flowers and cards. I stepped out of the car and hugged every one of them. “We heard. Harry told us.” My mom said to me. I hugged her harder, tears were still streaming down my face.

“Thanks, mum. For everything.” I said, and I meant it. My family was always so supportive of everything good or bad that happened to me. That’s why I loved them so much. They were the perfect family that existed in my dreams, except they were standing right here in front of me.
“I love you, sweetie.” She said to me.

“Mum, I love you too. And I always will.” I replied, tears still coming down my cheeks.
We went inside, and Harry made everyone tea. As we sipped the tea, everyone joined in as the conversation went from topic to topic. We talked about everything imaginable. Lots of laughter filled the atmosphere. That’s another thing I love about my family. I can talk to them about anything. I love them so much.

*** Harry had left to go hang out with some of his childhood friends. I was getting tired, so I decided to go to sleep for the night. I got into my bed, preparing the blankets in a comfortable position. I yawned and rubbed my eyes just as Niall came into my room. But Niall was crying, tears running down his cheeks.

“What’s wrong?” I asked him. Niall just shook his head and walked away. His tears hadn’t stopped. Then a terrified Liam came into my room. “What is happening?” I asked him. Liam was very pale, eyes wide, and he had a couple tears streaming down his face.

“It’s Harry…” he said. Suddenly I was wide awake. Liam just shook his head like Niall had. I ran downstairs, scared about the thought of what had happened to Harry that made everyone so terrified.
