Forever Young
You ready for this?
Harry’s POV
“Are you almost ready?” I asked lying on Carly’s bed while she walked around the room trying to get ready. “Are you okay? You seemed stressed or worried.”
“I’m scared.” She blurted out looking into my eyes. “What if we don’t work out and both of our reps will be ruined? I mean, I hope it all works out but let’s be realistic, not everything lasts.”
“We can wait if you want to? I think we’ll last but if you want to wait, we can.” I sat up with a sigh. “I like you a lot and don’t really care if everyone knows.”
She smiled at me and walked closer. I looked into her eyes as she leaned down and kissed my lips lightly. She set her hands on my shoulders as I grabbed her hips and stood up.
“Harry” She mumbled into my lips and pulled back. “I need to get ready so we can go.”
“So we are telling them?” I was so confused.
“I trust you and want to tell them so yea.” She smiled and kissed my cheek before walking away.
Watching her walk around the room while she got ready took my breath away; actually everything she did took my breath away. I couldn’t help but let my eyes follow her every move. Her natural curls hung over her shoulder as she looked down at her feet while she tied her black Converse. She looked in the mirror at herself, played with her eyelashes and shrugged before turning around to face me again.
“Stop staring at me Harold.” She giggled.
“Sorry.” I blushed looking away.
“So, where’re we going?” She asked timidly.
“I was thinking we could go out to lunch.” I forgot that I hadn’t brought up the plans for tonight. “Is that okay?”
“Sure.” She shrugged grabbing her purse. “Ready?”
“Yup.” I smiled and stood up.
She walked toward the door and waited for me. I grabbed the doorknob as she wrapped her left arm around my waist. She looked up at me and leaned forward to let her lips touch my cheek lightly. I felt her wrap her other arm around my body and pull me into a hug. Her hands gripped my shirt as I engulfed her in a hug too, she let out a sigh and rested her chin on my shoulder.
“What’s wrong?” I mumbled still holding her close.
“Nothing.” She lied quietly.
I ignored it and rubbed her back while she took a deep breath and pulled back. Looking into her eyes I could see tears forming. She tried to blink them away before the slipped out but failed. I cupped her cheeks and wiped them away.
“I don’t know how to let go of everything and trust people. I want to but it’s hard for me.” She whispered. “I really like you and want people to know but this could ruin everything you have going on and I don’t want to be to blame.”
“Then we’ll wait until you’re ready. Carly, I don’t even care if we tell them. What they think isn't as important to me as you are.” I felt my eyes burn with tears too but I just didn’t care. “And this wont ruin anything.”
“What about today?” She asked looking into my eyes.
“Today we’ll go out and have lunch and if they think something’s going on between us then they can think that. We don’t need to confirm anything until you're ready.” I let go of her face and wiped my eyes.
“Thank you Harry.” She looked sad but calm.
“You're welcome and we can even have everyone come out with us so they don’t pressure us or anything. Would that make it easier?” I shoved my hands in my pockets and looked around the room while she thought about how to answer.
“No, it’s okay. I want it to be just us.” She smiled and touched my arm.
I looked at her and smiled. She let go of my waist and grabbed my cheeks.
“But thanks for offering.” She whispered before crashing her lips on mine.
We laughed into each other as I wrapped my arms around her body and picked her up. She clung to me and pulled back letting her laughter out.
“Harry!” She giggled as I let my lips touch her neck.
I set her down but didn’t let go of her. She didn’t seem to mind when I slipped my hands into her back pockets. I heard her faulter as I kissed her jawline. Letting her fingers play with the hair at the nape of my neck, I let out an uneasy breath that set her off in giggles again. I stopped her giggles with one swift move of pushing her against the wall and pressing my body against her.
“Now who’s laughing?” I asked kissing her neck again.
“Oh…my…gosh…Harry stop.” She almost moaned. “Please”
I pulled back and looked at her face. Her eyes were closed and she was biting her bottom lip. When her eyes opened, they landed on me with a look of longing in them.
“Whoa.” I whispered looking down at her chest that was rising and falling quickly.
“What?” She asked shyly.
“You look so fucking hot.” I couldn’t believe hot much I wanted her right there.
“Same goes to you Harry. If we didn’t have somewhere to go, I wouldn’t have stopped you.” She set her hand on my chest.
“We don’t have to go…?” I smiled feeling her fingers run down my chest.
“But we do because I’m hungry.” She was completely serious.
I chuckled quietly and pecked her cheek before letting her away from the wall. She picked up her purse and followed me down the hallway to the living room where Louis was lying on the couch with El sitting on his lap eating a bowl of cereal. They both looked at us with sleepy smiles.
“Good morning.” Carly said with a smile that was meant to hold back her laughter but failed.
“Good morning.” Louis gave us the ‘you naughty kids’ look that made me blush even though we didn’t do anything.
“Where’re you two going?” El mumbled with a mouthful of cereal.
“Out to lunch.” I answered as Carly took the keys out of my hand and replaced them with her hand.
“Have fun.” Louis winked at us before looking up at El again with an innocent look.
We walked down the hallway hand-in-hand, in the elevator I heard her take a deep breath. All I could do was pull her in for a hug because I felt the same way.
I hope it all works out because I’m putting myself out there; both to get hurt and get ridiculed by the fans. I don’t have to hope that it’ll all work out because even if it doesn’t, we’ll still be okay.
When the elevator doors opened, we let go of each other and stepped out. I had my hands shoved in my pockets and she had hers around her phone. Even before we could make it to the door, we could hear the roar of the fans waiting outside.
“You ready for this?” She asked holding the door handle.
“Yea” I nodded taking the door handle and opening the door for her.
She walked out ahead of me and waited for me to follow her. The security guards were all around us but the fans were still touching us. She looked back at me with a worried look in her eyes but I couldn’t comfort her besides grabbing her hand. When our fingers laced together, she smiled at me and looked where she was walking. Once we were out of the crowd, I pulled my hand back and jogged over to my car. I opened the door for her and watched her get in before closing the door and going around to the driver’s side to do the same.
“Are you almost ready?” I asked lying on Carly’s bed while she walked around the room trying to get ready. “Are you okay? You seemed stressed or worried.”
“I’m scared.” She blurted out looking into my eyes. “What if we don’t work out and both of our reps will be ruined? I mean, I hope it all works out but let’s be realistic, not everything lasts.”
