Harry’s POV

“I’ll be back soon.” I promised, smiling down at my beautiful girlfriend.

She looked adorable in her sweats and tank top, her hair was pulled back into a tight pony tail and her blue eyes looked innocently up at me.

“I don’t want you to go.” Her voice was small and frail, her eyes glossy as if she were on the verge of tears.

“Hey, hey.” I wrapped my arms tightly around her waist, pulling her into me. “What’s wrong love? I’m not leaving for good just yet. I’ll see you tonight at dinner.”

“Harry.” She withdrew a loud breath, fisting my t-shirt in her palms. “P-promise me you won’t ever leave me.”

“What’s this about?” I questioned, my brows arched in confusion.

“J-just promise me!” She demanded, her voice shaky, fresh tears coating her cheeks.

I sunk to the ground, pulling her into my lap.

Watching her cry in my arms was heart breaking.

“Baby I promise.” I mumbled into her hair. “What happened that you aren’t telling me about?”

Her sobs slowed to hiccups and I stroked her cheek with my thumb comfortingly.

She took a deep breath. “The night I found out about you and Taylor, I was having dinner with my family. My mum, my dad, my cousins, even Niall’s mum.

“She told me – She told me -” Her voice cracked.

“It’s okay baby.” I pushed the hair out of her eyes.

“She told me that the reason that I am so afraid of forgiving Niall is because I’m afraid that you will leave me the same way.”

She sighed, more tears welling up in her eyes.

I didn’t know what to say.

I pressed a kiss to her forehead.

“I promise that I won’t ever leave you page. I love you and you don’t leave the ones you love.”

Her lips curved into a small smile and she tucked her head into my chest.

“I love you too Harry.”

I was driving home from Page’s house to freshen up for our date that night.

I decided to stop at a gas station for gum before I headed home.

I was at checkout, my eyes scanning the magazine rack.

‘The Kardashians take on tenth season of Keeping up with the Kardashians!’

‘Jennifer Lawrence’s Birthday Bash!’

‘Harry Styles already forgotten about Page Philips? Taylor Swift gives the inside scoop on she and Harry’s relationship!’

Oh shit.

What if Page comes to this gas station and sees these?!

“Umm how much are those?” I asked panicky, pointing to the magazines.

The cashier glanced over at them before mumbling a quiet “two dollars”.

“I’ll take them all.”
