Everything at once (sequel to Just say "Yes!")
So hard
I slowly opened my eyes, still couldn’t realize what had happened. It was hard to figure out how ... But I didn’t want to think, I had to fix my mistakes. I had to speak with Jace.
I knocked on his door, my heart was pounding so fast. I remembered all the horrible moments in this apartment.
'Sisssss!' - He gave me a bear hug, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t just forget everything like that. - 'Come in.’
'We need to talk... ‘- I sat down on the couch, but he looked at me surprised.
'Well, don’t punch me.' - He joked and smiled.
Oh, Jace... I was here to stop him before it was too late. I was here to help him.
'I know what you‘ve started to do, Jace. This is wrong and believe me, you'll get hurt. If you need a job, come to work with me, but I won’t let you ruin your life. I don’t want to lose my brother. '
Tears began to stream down my face, I was honest. I really didn’t want to lose him. Yes, he made too many mistakes, but no one was perfect, right? He was my brother and I had to help him at any cost.
Jace stood speechless, he didn’t know how I knew about his job. He was in tears and couldn’t answer me.
'Come here.' - Jace wrapped his arms around me and I hugged him. It was nice to get along again. - 'I promise you that I’ll quit my job. Don’t cry. '
He wiped my tears and both continued to talk. Everything was like before, another mistake was corrected.
Fixing the mistakes was changing the future. There were no photos of me and Harry in newspapers and magazines because we waited the paparazzi to leave. If there were no pictures, it meant that Harry had no reason to call me. There was no reason to meet again, but I had a plan.
‘Bella, tonight we are going to a club cuz I wanna have fun. '- Bella was sitting on the couch in our apartment, eating cookies.
'Oh, I like you more and more, Emma.'
I knew where Harry liked to go partying and our meeting would be a second sign for him. I didn’t want to force him to love me again, but all I wanted was to kiss his lips and touch his hands.
I chose a simple dress that didn’t show much of my body. Bella and I were at the bar, listening to the great music and partying. Well, at least she did. I was waiting for one man, my eyes were searching his. I sipped on my drink when I heard a noisy group of people to enter the club. They were laughing and looked visibly drunk.
'My God, Emma. The guys from One Direction! '- Bella recognized them, and when she said “One Direction”, my whole body began to tremble.
I turned to see if Harry was there. He was perfect, he was so perfect that it hurt. I couldn’t describe how much I wanted to be with him, to touch his body and hear him saying those three special words- I love you.
He met my eyes and I was embarrassed for a moment, but he waved and smiled.
‘You know Harry Styles?’ - Bella poked me in the ribs.
‘Sort of. '
'I'll kill you.'
‘Why? I didn’t expect to ...’
‘He's coming. '- Bella interrupted my story, because she noticed how Harry was approaching us.
‘Hello, Emma. Glad to see you again. ‘- He leaned over and kissed my cheek.
‘Hi, Harry. Are you hiding again? '
'Not this time. ‘- He laughed at my joke, and then looked at Bella.
'Oh, that's my best friend.'
‘Bella, nice to meet you.'
Harry held out his hand, but looked at me, smiling. Awkward silence occurred because there was nothing more to say.
'Come to our table. You can’t party alone. '-He offered and pointed to the place where the other boys were dancing.
I looked at Bella to get an answer, but she just nodded. I saw the excitement in her eyes. I was very excited too, but at the thought of being so close to him.
Drinks, dancing and lots of laughter. I felt great, there was a hope. I was going to the bathroom, when I heard two men talking in a corner. They didn’t see me, but I was close enough to recognize the voices of Harry and Niall.
'Who is she?' - Niall was curious.
'Emma? Let’s say she’s just a friend. '
'Are you sure? It didn’t seem so... when you saw her. '
'Believe me, I don’t want a girlfriend right now. ‘
'Is it your opinion or the managers’?' – Niall got angry and raised his voice.
'Never mind, I don’t care that much.'
Harry stopped talking, he saw me standing there and knew that I’d heard everything. Niall was behind him and both were silent.
The reality hit me, I was living in the past. I lived with those moments when Harry loved me, but now it was different. Now I wasn’t his and he wasn’t mine.
'Emma, I ... ‘
'Don’t worry, I understand. ‘- I held back my tears, I didn’t want to cry in front of him, so I went to Bella and asked her to leave with me. I was so weak.
Bella wasn’t happy with my decision, but she knew something was wrong.
Everything had changed, I loved him, but he didn’t even know it. We had so many great times together, but he couldn’t even remember. Starting all over again was harder than I thought.
I knocked on his door, my heart was pounding so fast. I remembered all the horrible moments in this apartment.
