When Feelings Come Back
"I will always love him."
Harry's POV:
"Harry?"
"Yeah?"
"You understand why you have to do this right?"
I stood there processing everything through my head.
"Yeah.. I do."
"Alright, and I trust you to go through with this, for the band."
But I didn't want to, I knew this would cause massive problems, especially with Elena. But this is something I have to do, for Simon and the band. I just hope Elena would understand.
"Ok... I'll--I'll do it."
"Alright, I'll let you go now your live in a couple minutes. Goodbye."
He hung up and I couldn't believe what I had agreed to do. I ran my fingers through my hair and sighed. If I was going to do this, I wanted Elena to understand why, to know the truth. I was going to tell her everything that was about to happen. So I decided to go back into the room to tell her.
When I walked in, she was gone.
"Where did she go?" I thought to myself.
Suddenly the door behind me opens and Liam came in.
"Harry, come on! Lets go we're going to be late!"
"But Liam Elena--."
"Elena left to grab some food for us and Lux for after the show."
"Lux? What do you mean? Lou's back?"
"Yeah, she just came back today but you wouldn't know cause your always with Elena!"
"Wait so is Elena going to leave then?"
"Of course not, she's family now. And she and Lou are going to work together since there is 5 of us ok. Are you done with the questions now?"
"Wait, no I have to find El--."
"She'll be back! You can see her after the show, come on!"
Louis then grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the room.
We then heard Ellen introduce us and we all walked out on stage together.
At this point, I knew Elena and I won't ever be the same again.
-----
"So you boys travel a lot huh?"
"Yes we do, we get a bit homesick sometimes but we love to visit many beautiful places around the world." said Niall.
"And we love knowing that wherever we go our fans are always there with us, it's a great experience." continued Liam.
"Well sounds like you boys are doing great then."
"Now here's a question that probably every girl watching would die to know ... Literally." said Ellen as the audience laughed.
"Who here is single?"
The audience then cheered as the boys laughed but I stood quite because I know where this is going to have to lead to.
Each one of the boys said one by one if they were single or not and then it came down to me. My only hope was that Elena wasn't watching.
"What about you Harry?" asked Ellen.
"What about me?"
"We'll let's see your handsome, charming, a gentlemen, your in the worlds famous boy band and your completely adorable I mean come on guys look at him!"
The audience then cheered again and I gave a little smile.
"I bet there's a lucky girl out there, isn't there?"
I stood quite for a second.
Elena... I'm so sorry.
"Well..."
Elena's POV:
"Hey guys, I'm back," I said as I walked into the hair & makeup room.
Everyone was sitting on the couches waiting for the show and I walked over to the table to set down the food I brought.
I then see Lou walking towards me.
"Hey, here's Lux's food," I said.
"Thank you so much."
"You were fast," she said.
"Yeah, I didn't want to miss the show. I promised Harry this morning I'd watch it."
"We'll it just went on commercial, you didn't miss much."
"Alright, great."
I started unloaded the food I brought and organizing the table.
"Soooo.. Harry huh?"
I smiled and said, "What about Harry?"
"Oh nothing, its just a little Irish birdie told me you guys have been spending alot of time together."
"Dang it Niall."
She laughed and sat down.
"Come on fess up. What's the story? You guys going out?"
"No, we're not."
"But you like each other?"
"Well yeah. Harry and I have history together I mean since High school it never really felt like we left each other?"
"Wait you guys knew each other in high school?"
"Yeah, we were best friends and its funny cause at first we didn't really like each other but we both attended a party one day him with his best friend and me with mine and my best friend and his best friend were dating so we were both kind of the third wheels and we just started talking and became best friends, then we dated for almost 2 years."
"Wow, sounds pretty serious. What happened."
"College is what happened. He wanted to go back to his home in London to study there and he wanted me to go with him but I had to attend college at UCLA because that's where my parents went and that's where they wanted me to go."
"So you guys broke up."
"Not necessarily. After graduation we decided to work a long distance relationship because we didn't want to leave each other, so we did."
"Saying goodbye to him was hard, but spending months and months without him was even harder. And one day, I just couldn't take it anymore so I called him and..."
"And you broke up with him."
I nodded and I could feel my stomach get a bit upset as I was getting teary.
"Hearing him cry, and beg over the phone not to do this was the most hardest experience I've ever been through. I wasn't the same after that, he called a few times after but I never answered and then i never heard from him again and that's when Damon came along."
"Damon?"
"He's my best friend back in the US, we met in college and we've been so close ever since. We both live together in an apartment by UCLA."
"Oh have you two ever--."
I immediately cut her off knowing what she was about to ask.
"Oh no no Damon is just a good friend. He helped me throughout the breakup when I was at my worst. He really means a lot to me, but were nothing more than close friends."
"We'll it's nice to have someone like that around."
"Yeah, it is."
"The crazy thing is, I thought I'd never see Harry again."
"So tell me, what are you guys now? You obviously still have feelings for him, am I not right?"
I blushed and said, "When I broke up with Harry, it wasn't cause I didn't have feelings for him anymore, but because I knew the long distance relationship we had wasn't healthy. I thought after the breakup I had moved on and all the feelings for him were gone, but... seeing Harry again, spending all this time with him. I realize that those feelings never really left."
"You love him don't you?"
When Lou said that I couldn't help but smile and as I thought it over I sat down and said, "Harry was my first love, I will always love him."
She smiled and said, "You know what, I have a feeling he feels the exact same way for you."
"Why do you say that?"
"We'll to start off your completely beautiful and sweet and so amazing. A girl like you is hard get over."
"Ok? But--."
"And! While I have been away Niall always kept me updated on the boys and he always told me Harry would always love spending time with you. That he would brag about his day with the boys and say how great you are."
At this point I couldn't stop blushing.
"Your his longest relationship he's ever had. And knowing Harry, he just doesn't settle down and take things serious with just any girl Elena."
I stood quite for a moment trying to get through what she was saying.
"Elena..."
I looked up at her.
"Tell him."
"I--."
"Guys come on your going to miss the whole interview!" said a guy sitting on the couch.
"Oh my gosh it's on! You should have told us!"
We then got up and Lou sat down with Lux on the couch while I stood standing behind a sofa.
"What about you Harry?" asked Ellen.
"What about me?" he said flashing his dimples.
"We'll let's see your handsome, charming, a gentlemen, your in the worlds famous boy band and your completely adorable I mean come on guys look at him!"
The audience then cheered again and Lou winked at me.
I rolled my eyes and continued watching.
"I bet there's a lucky girl out there, isn't there?"
"We'll... There is."
Everyone in the room suddenly turned to me and whistled knowing he was talking about me.
"So tell me Harry, who's the lucky gal?"
He started then looking a bit nervous.
"She's ughh a girl."
The audience then laughed.
"Oh really, I thought she was a squirrel," Ellen joked and the audience laughed again.
"Why was he stalling?" I thought to myself.
"Come on, what's the lucky girls name?"
Everyone was glued to the tv waiting to hear Harry's answer, including me.
"Her name is... Taylor Swift."
My heart dropped.
Taylor Swift?
Harry was in a relationship with Taylor?
He used me...
"So Harry can we make it official?"
"....Yes."
The audience cheered as he said that and everyone looked at me as I walked out of the room.
I stood in the hallway and leaned back on the wall with my hands placed over my head.
I hear the door open and see Lou walk out of the room.
"Elena, I'm so.."
"Lou.. It's fine. At least I know the truth now," I said as I tried to hold back tears I felt coming down my cheek.
"No Elena, maybe Harry just--."
"Lou I just want to be alone right now... Please."
She looked at me in an understanding way, nodded and went back into the room.
At that point I couldn't hold it any longer. I slid down on the floor and burst out in tears, feeling ashamed, embarrassed and especially used.
Harry's POV:
After the show ended the lads stayed behind to say greet and take pictures with some fans but I went straight to the room backstage to find Elena.
I walked in the room and saw Lou sitting down with Lux.
"Harry! Hey!"
"Hey Lou, it's good to see you and Lux of course."
"How have you been?"
"Good but uhh have you seen Elena?"
"She's not out in the Hallway?"
"No?"
"Oh---."
The boys then came in and greeted Lou and Baby Lux.
"Hey boys, how'd the show go?" Lou asked.
"It was good, didn't you watch it?"
"Oh, right."
"Man! I'm hungry!" said Niall.
"Oh, Elena brought food its right on the table over there," she pointed out the food.
They then all went around the table and digged in.
"Mmmm Elena this is so good! Where did you get this," said Niall not realizing Elena wasn't there.
"She's not here Niall," said Lou.
"Where did Elena go?" said Louis.
"She left."
-----
I woke up on my bed in my hotel room.
I grabbed my phone to check if I had any missed calls or texts from Elena. But I didn't. I looked at the time and it was 9pm. I hadn't seen her all day since before the show and she hadn't come back to the hotel. I was worried so I left the room and walked down to the lobby to try and text her.
"Elena, where are you?"
No response.
"Elena, can we please talk? I'm worried over here, you've been gone all day."
Still no response.
So I decided to call her but it went straight to voicemail.
"Elena, I'm so sorry for everything. Its not what you think ok just let me explain, I really need to talk to you. Come back to the hotel, I'm worried. Please.. just.. don't leave me."
Louis POV:
I saw as Harry walked out of the hotel room and I was worried.
He'd stayed in his room all night and hasn't eaten all day.
I decided to follow him and see if he was ok.
I walked out of the room and took the elevator down to the first floor because i thought he was going to leave.
As I try looking for him I hear his voice coming from the main lobby.
"Elena, I'm so sorry for everything. Its not what you think ok just let me explain, I really need to talk to you. Come back to the hotel, I'm worried. Please.. just.. don't leave me."
I could hear as his voice sounded like he was about to cry.
He look frustrated and sad as he then sat down on a sofa in the lobby.
I approached him and he sighed and ran his hand through his hair.
"You alright Harry?"
He looked at me then looked back down.
I sat down on a sofa the opposite side of Harry.
"You wanna talk about it mate?"
He stood quite for a second until he said, "What's there to talk about.. Elena believes I'm with Taylor and now she completely hates me."
"I doubt that lad."
"Oh really.. Then how come she hasn't came back yet. How come she hasn't replied or answered any of my calls?"
"Harry she's confused ok. It's a lot to take in after you guys have been basically together. She needs her space.. So give it to her."
"I shouldn't have agreed to the whole Haylor relationship."
"You didn't have to, you know that right?"
"I didn't want to let Simon or anyone else down."
".. So instead... You left the girl you love down?..."
He immediately looked at me and I stood up and walked away, hoping he'd think things over.
Elena's POV:
After the show ended.
I wanted to avoid anything and anyone for the day after the whole Taylor Swift thing.
I went to the room and grabbed my things and left without saying a word to anyone.
I walked out of from the back of the studio to avoid any fans and as I was walking I remembered that I had came to the show with Harry, so I had no ride back.
But that didn't stop me from walking.
------
I checked my phone and it was already 7.
I had been walking for an hour and a half and wasn't nowhere near the hotel.
I saw a Starbucks Cafe and decided to stop by it.
I walked in and ordered the usual, a lemonade green tea.
After I payed I sat down on my phone waiting for my drink.
I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see a cute guy standing beside me.
"Hey," I said.
"Hello, I think you dropped this."
He had a nice British accent, which reminded me of Harry's.
He handed me my backstage pass for when I'm with One Direction doing there hair and makeup.
"Oh my gosh, thank you so much. I would have died if I lost this."
"Your welcome."
"So you work with them.. One Direction?"
"Depends.. will you scream and fan girl if I told you I did?"
He laughed and said, "Maybeeee."
I laughed as well and said, "Yes I do, I'm their hair and makeup artist."
"Wow, that's cool. You must travel a lot with them then."
"Yeah. We travel here and there but we're trying to stay as much time at home in London before we go on tour."
"Hey, I live in London as well."
"I can tell from your accent."
"What are you doing here then?"
"Well I came cause I was really thirsty and Starbucks is my favorite," he joked.
I laughed and said, "Very funny. I meant here in the US."
"I came to film for a foundation down at Pine woods."
"Oh I heard about that, how'd it go?"
"Really good. Raised alot of money."
"That's great."
"Elena your lemonade green tea is ready," said a worker.
I grabbed my drink and turned back to him.
"Well it was really nice talking to you but I better get walking, have a long way to go."
"Walking? The suns almost down, you'll be walking in the dark."
"Yeah I know that's why I should probably leave right now."
As I was about to walk away he said, "Wait, I can give you a ride."
"Oh no, it's ok I--."
"I'll feel much better if you would let me."
I thought about it for a second.
I didn't want to walk alone at night, but I wasn't sure about going with a guy I just met. What would Harry think? Oh that's right.. he's with Taylor. He wouldn't care at all..
"So what do you say?"
"Sure, thanks."
"Alright."
"But it's pretty far from here."
"It's alright love."
He then grabbed his Starbucks drink which was ready for him and we started walking out the door.
" I'm Jack by the way. Jack Harries.
"I'm Elena, Elena Valentine."
"It's nice to meet you."
I smiled and he opened the door for me and we walked over to his car, an all black Mustang.
"Nice ride."
"Thanks."
-----
The drive was long, due to traffic.
But things weren't awkward at all. We actually got to know each other for a bit. He was really funny and we actually had alot in common.
After hours of driving, we finally reached the hotel, and I told him to go through the back because that's where we always went through as another way to avoid fans.
"Thanks for the save," I said.
He smiled and pulled out a notecard from his pocket and started writing on it.
"Here--"
I grabbed the card and saw that he had written his number along with his name and a small heart next to it.
"-- just in case you need another save."
I smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then I got out of the car and saw him drive away.
I didn't really think to much about him because I knew if probably never see him again.
As I walked in the lobby I went in the elevator to go to my room, hoping no one would still see me.
The elevator doors opened and when I walked out I slowly stopped as I saw Harry standing out my room, waiting for me.
Once he saw me he stood frozen and then slowly started walking towards me.
"Hey," he managed to say.
"Hi."
"What happened?"
"What do you mean."
I pretended like I didn't know what he was talking about and like I didn't care but I obviously did.
"Well.. you just left the studio?"
"I ugh, had something to do."
"What with that guy you were just with?!"
I rolled my eyes and walked right past him to get to my room.
"Who is that guy anyway?"
"Jack."
"Jack? Do you even know him? You can't just go away with random guys like that Elena!"
"Yeah cause you care right."
I finally reached my room and unlocked the door.
"Elena, please can we talk. Just hear me out, you don't underst--."
"Harry, I'm tired ok. I just want some rest. Today's been a long day and you guys have a party to attend right now. You should go.. besides.. you wouldn't want to keep "Americas Sweetheart" waiting."
"No Elena, it's not what you think. Taylor--."
I then shut the door in his face cutting him off, not wanting to deal with him.
I heard him punch the wall in the hallway and I leaned back on my door and once again slid down and broke out in tears.
"Harry?"
"Yeah?"
"You understand why you have to do this right?"
I stood there processing everything through my head.
"Yeah.. I do."
"Alright, and I trust you to go through with this, for the band."
But I didn't want to, I knew this would cause massive problems, especially with Elena. But this is something I have to do, for Simon and the band. I just hope Elena would understand.
"Ok... I'll--I'll do it."
"Alright, I'll let you go now your live in a couple minutes. Goodbye."
He hung up and I couldn't believe what I had agreed to do. I ran my fingers through my hair and sighed. If I was going to do this, I wanted Elena to understand why, to know the truth. I was going to tell her everything that was about to happen. So I decided to go back into the room to tell her.
When I walked in, she was gone.
"Where did she go?" I thought to myself.
Suddenly the door behind me opens and Liam came in.
"Harry, come on! Lets go we're going to be late!"
"But Liam Elena--."
"Elena left to grab some food for us and Lux for after the show."
"Lux? What do you mean? Lou's back?"
"Yeah, she just came back today but you wouldn't know cause your always with Elena!"
"Wait so is Elena going to leave then?"
"Of course not, she's family now. And she and Lou are going to work together since there is 5 of us ok. Are you done with the questions now?"
"Wait, no I have to find El--."
"She'll be back! You can see her after the show, come on!"
Louis then grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the room.
We then heard Ellen introduce us and we all walked out on stage together.
At this point, I knew Elena and I won't ever be the same again.
-----
"So you boys travel a lot huh?"
"Yes we do, we get a bit homesick sometimes but we love to visit many beautiful places around the world." said Niall.
"And we love knowing that wherever we go our fans are always there with us, it's a great experience." continued Liam.
"Well sounds like you boys are doing great then."
"Now here's a question that probably every girl watching would die to know ... Literally." said Ellen as the audience laughed.
"Who here is single?"
The audience then cheered as the boys laughed but I stood quite because I know where this is going to have to lead to.
Each one of the boys said one by one if they were single or not and then it came down to me. My only hope was that Elena wasn't watching.
"What about you Harry?" asked Ellen.
"What about me?"
"We'll let's see your handsome, charming, a gentlemen, your in the worlds famous boy band and your completely adorable I mean come on guys look at him!"
The audience then cheered again and I gave a little smile.
"I bet there's a lucky girl out there, isn't there?"
I stood quite for a second.
Elena... I'm so sorry.
"Well..."
Elena's POV:
"Hey guys, I'm back," I said as I walked into the hair & makeup room.
Everyone was sitting on the couches waiting for the show and I walked over to the table to set down the food I brought.
I then see Lou walking towards me.
"Hey, here's Lux's food," I said.

"I didn't want to let Simon or anyone else down."
".. So instead... You left the girl you love down?..."
He immediately looked at me and I stood up and walked away, hoping he'd think things over.
Elena's POV:
After the show ended.
I wanted to avoid anything and anyone for the day after the whole Taylor Swift thing.
I went to the room and grabbed my things and left without saying a word to anyone.
I walked out of from the back of the studio to avoid any fans and as I was walking I remembered that I had came to the show with Harry, so I had no ride back.
But that didn't stop me from walking.
------
I checked my phone and it was already 7.
I had been walking for an hour and a half and wasn't nowhere near the hotel.
I saw a Starbucks Cafe and decided to stop by it.
I walked in and ordered the usual, a lemonade green tea.
After I payed I sat down on my phone waiting for my drink.
I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see a cute guy standing beside me.
"Hey," I said.
"Hello, I think you dropped this."
He had a nice British accent, which reminded me of Harry's.
He handed me my backstage pass for when I'm with One Direction doing there hair and makeup.
"Oh my gosh, thank you so much. I would have died if I lost this."
"Your welcome."
"So you work with them.. One Direction?"
"Depends.. will you scream and fan girl if I told you I did?"
He laughed and said, "Maybeeee."
I laughed as well and said, "Yes I do, I'm their hair and makeup artist."
"Wow, that's cool. You must travel a lot with them then."
"Yeah. We travel here and there but we're trying to stay as much time at home in London before we go on tour."
"Hey, I live in London as well."
"I can tell from your accent."
"What are you doing here then?"
"Well I came cause I was really thirsty and Starbucks is my favorite," he joked.
I laughed and said, "Very funny. I meant here in the US."
"I came to film for a foundation down at Pine woods."
"Oh I heard about that, how'd it go?"
"Really good. Raised alot of money."
"That's great."
"Elena your lemonade green tea is ready," said a worker.
I grabbed my drink and turned back to him.
"Well it was really nice talking to you but I better get walking, have a long way to go."
"Walking? The suns almost down, you'll be walking in the dark."
"Yeah I know that's why I should probably leave right now."
As I was about to walk away he said, "Wait, I can give you a ride."
"Oh no, it's ok I--."
"I'll feel much better if you would let me."
I thought about it for a second.
I didn't want to walk alone at night, but I wasn't sure about going with a guy I just met. What would Harry think? Oh that's right.. he's with Taylor. He wouldn't care at all..
"So what do you say?"
"Sure, thanks."
"Alright."
"But it's pretty far from here."
"It's alright love."
He then grabbed his Starbucks drink which was ready for him and we started walking out the door.
" I'm Jack by the way. Jack Harries.
"I'm Elena, Elena Valentine."
"It's nice to meet you."
I smiled and he opened the door for me and we walked over to his car, an all black Mustang.
"Nice ride."
"Thanks."
-----
The drive was long, due to traffic.
But things weren't awkward at all. We actually got to know each other for a bit. He was really funny and we actually had alot in common.
After hours of driving, we finally reached the hotel, and I told him to go through the back because that's where we always went through as another way to avoid fans.
"Thanks for the save," I said.
He smiled and pulled out a notecard from his pocket and started writing on it.
"Here--"
I grabbed the card and saw that he had written his number along with his name and a small heart next to it.
"-- just in case you need another save."
I smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Then I got out of the car and saw him drive away.
I didn't really think to much about him because I knew if probably never see him again.
As I walked in the lobby I went in the elevator to go to my room, hoping no one would still see me.
The elevator doors opened and when I walked out I slowly stopped as I saw Harry standing out my room, waiting for me.
Once he saw me he stood frozen and then slowly started walking towards me.
"Hey," he managed to say.
"Hi."
"What happened?"
"What do you mean."
I pretended like I didn't know what he was talking about and like I didn't care but I obviously did.
"Well.. you just left the studio?"
"I ugh, had something to do."
"What with that guy you were just with?!"
I rolled my eyes and walked right past him to get to my room.
"Who is that guy anyway?"
"Jack."
"Jack? Do you even know him? You can't just go away with random guys like that Elena!"
"Yeah cause you care right."
I finally reached my room and unlocked the door.
"Elena, please can we talk. Just hear me out, you don't underst--."
"Harry, I'm tired ok. I just want some rest. Today's been a long day and you guys have a party to attend right now. You should go.. besides.. you wouldn't want to keep "Americas Sweetheart" waiting."
"No Elena, it's not what you think. Taylor--."
I then shut the door in his face cutting him off, not wanting to deal with him.
I heard him punch the wall in the hallway and I leaned back on my door and once again slid down and broke out in tears.
