{That evening}

Harry’s POV

“Mmm… your lips are so soft.’’ I mumble lightly as Emmy pulls back from our kiss while we sat in the car, I just parked it a few minutes ago, but as soon as I did she leaned over here and we carried on with where we left off at the office.

For the rest of that day we were kissing, I was leaving marks on her, she was holding me close. It was beautiful, I loved it so much.

She just giggles as I wink at her. I get out of the car, shutting the door quickly and hurrying to her side. I open the door, just see her blush and hear that cute little laugh of hers as I held my hand out.

Emmy placed her hand in my mine and I held her hand tight as she got out of the car, shutting the door behind her. ‘’You at ya.. beautiful.’’ I mumble as I pull her to me, putting my arms around her.

‘’Thank you.’’ She whispers lightly against my chest as her arms held onto my torso. We stopped by her apartment so she could get some nice clothes on, and God did she.

She looked beautiful, as always.

‘’What if someone sees us?’’ She asks as I release her, taking a hold of her hand and interlacing our fingers together. ‘’Oh well if they do.. they’ll just see how in love I am with you.’’

“You’re.. in love with me?’’ She laughs lightly. ‘’Of course I am, why do you think I was loving on you for hours?’’ I say, smiling lightly as I look down at her. ‘’I dunno.. just because.. you wanted it.’’ She says, staring at her feet.

‘’You mean.. sex?’’ I say lightly. ‘’Yeah, most guys just… want that. Nothing more, nothing less.’’ She shrugs lightly, loosening her grip on my hand, but I squeeze hers to keep the grip tight, the way I liked it.

“No.. I’m not one of those guys then.. because I’m in love with you. Sex is just a thing.. I don’t have to have sex to be in love with you. I’ve been in love with you since the day you walked into my office.. whether you believe me or not, love.’’ I admit to her.

‘’I never said.. I didn’t believe you. I’m just.. shocked, that’s all.’’ She sighs. ‘’Don’t be. You ought to know I love you by now.. God knows I do, baby.. I do.’’ I assure her. ‘’I know.’’ She nods lightly before looking up at me.

‘’I’m.. I’m in love with you too.’’ She smiles lightly. I lick my lips, God damn that’s amazing to hear. The best damn thing I’ve ever heard in my entire life. ‘’Good.’’

“Can I get you anything else, sir?’’ The waiter asks me, hands behind his back as he looks at me, waiting on my answer obviously. ‘’Um.. yeah, bring me..bottle of Jack Daniel’s.. two Coke’s while you’re at it.’’ I say.

‘’Alright, they’ll be right out, and so will your food.’’ He says as he steps away, I didn’t care to reply anyways so it didn’t matter if he just basically ran away from me or not. ‘’Jack Daniel’s? Getting wasted again?’’ Emmy mumbles with a giggle beside me.

‘’Hush.’’ I laugh lightly as my hand trails to her hip, she was close and I had my arm around her, this was amazing, that’s all I can say, beautiful and amazing. ‘’I don’t know why you ordered me that steak.. I’m not going to eat all of it.’’ She says lightly.

‘’Oh well, I wanted to make sure you ate. It already looks like you don’t eat at all.’’ I joke. ‘’Well.. I can’t help it.’’ She sighs, leaning her head from my shoulder, pushing my hand off her side.

‘’Babe, I was kidding..’’ I sigh as I look over at her, she wasn’t looking too happy. ‘’Oh so now you’re saying I’m fat?’’ She says, shaking her head lightly as she puts her hands on her stomach.

‘’No, I never said that.’’ I say, turning slightly so I could see her better. ‘’Basically.. you did.’’ ‘’But I didn’t. Emmy, please, I didn’t say that. You’re not fat. You’re perfect, now c’mere and stop acting like this.’’ I say patting the spot she was sitting in just moments ago.

‘’No. I don’t wanna.’’ She says, moving against the wall. ‘’Baby-‘’ ‘’Here you are, Mr. Styles.’’ The waiter interrupted me. I sigh as I nod to him, hoping he would go away now, and thankfully he did.

‘’Have a drink, and just stop. Forget I even said anything.’’ I insist, grabbing one of the half-filled cups of Coke and the bottle of whiskey. ‘’No.’’ She simply replies, glancing over at me.

‘’C’mon baby, you’re too beautiful to get mad about something like that. You’re not fat, okay, you’re not. Just get back over here and enjoy the night. Please?’’ I beg with a sigh as I take the top off the bottle and pour some of it over into the cup, just a little though.

I sit the cup near her, but not fully at her because I wanted her to move a little closer, just a little at the least. As I pour the whiskey into my glass, I add a lot more than I did to hers, because I can take a lot.

‘’Please don’t.. get drunk.’’ She mumbles lightly, I was thankful that she was even looking my way. ‘’I’m not.. this won’t even give me a buzz.’’ I assure her as I look over to see her staring at me.

‘’I’m sorry.’’ I say, knowing that I hadn’t said it yet. She nods lightly, smiling a little, but still staying far from me. ‘’Are you.. being this way.. because I’m going too fast?’’ I ask curiously, my eyes on her.

‘’What are you talking about?’’ She furrows her eyebrows, glancing over at me for a few seconds before looking back at the table top. ‘’Am I going too fast? With.. us and everything. The kissing.. the.. you know, everything we’ve done. I’m sorry if I am, I just can’t hold back anymore.’’ I gulp lightly, praying that she will understand if she’s mad.

“What? No.. No.. I.. I like this.. I do, and I appreciate you not waiting any longer.. because that would have killed me. I just.. I can’t tell you.’’ She shrugs lightly. ‘’Why not?’’ I ask. There she goes again, just shrugs in response.

‘’It’s stupid.. but serious.’’ She sighs. ‘’You can tell me anything, babe. I’m here for you.’’ I tell her, moving a little closer to her since she denies to move closer to me.

‘’I just.. I have.. a.. um.. an eating disorder.. and.. and I can’t.. control the way.. I feel about it. And.. I might as well go on and tell you this too, I was suicidal.. but just last year I finally realized it wasn’t worth it. So I stopped, but the scars.. the pain… the memories, I can’t get rid of. I’m sorry.’’

‘’Why didn’t you tell me that before? Baby, don’t apologize though, it’s not your fault.’’ I say, reaching to grab her hand, and shockingly, she allows me too. I rub my thumb over her knuckles as I wait for her to speak to me.

‘’It’s not my fault? How can you think that? So me wanting to kill myself isn’t my fault?’’ She says, furrowing her eyebrows a little at me.

‘’Someone had to cause it.. tell you something that probably wasn’t true.. called you names.. All you wanted to do was solve the problem and just stop it. Tell me.. tell me, what did they do?” I say, my eyes staring into hers as she looks over at me.

‘’I couldn’t help that I was smarter than them.. They only acted nice when they wanted to cheat off my test, it made me feel like I was being used. And then, name calling and pushing me in the hallways.. I can’t.. take it. I couldn’t..’’ She tells me.

‘’I’ve noticed.. the.. the scars a few days ago, I saw a few. But I just thought.. you know..’’ I stop myself, not really knowing what to say. ‘’I just want some one to love me, and to need me. Not to use me.’’ Emmy says.

‘’Let me be that person.’’ I whisper. ‘’What?” She asks, sounding some what confused. ‘’Let me be the person.. to love you.. to want and need you. I have a desire to have you in my life, Emmy. I need you.’’

‘’Then take me.’’
