In The Lonely Hour

⏩Chapter: 007⏪

>>A/N: Her name is pronounced Raygen ~ spelling is just a factor ;)<<




Harry decided that there was no need to bother Bennett this evening so they just got into his Mercedes, one of his many cars he owns, and began the trip to the city. He decided on the Mercedes because he figured it was more baby safe, whatever that was supposed to mean.
“How old is he?’’ Harry asks with a grin on his face as he kept his attention on the road but his mind was dead set on meeting the little guy.
“He’s nine months.’’ Juliet says, smiling at Harry’s excitement.
‘’What’s his whole name?’’ Harry asks curiously.
‘’Lucas Chase Carter.’’ Juliet replies.
‘’So he took your last name?’’ Harry says.
‘’Of course.. his so called father wanted nothing to do with either of us when we found out.’’ Juliet sighs, she couldn’t say one good word about that boy.
‘’Well I’m sure he has the best Mommy in the world, now doesn’t he?’’ Harry says, glancing over at Juliet for a split second before gluing his eyes back on the road.
Juliet just smiles to herself, hoping and praying that that was true. Harry took it so well, she thought, quite confusing.
She figured he would run away and forget about her, not wanting to handle any baggage he didn’t know about beforehand, like all the other guys she’s met in the past year.
But Harry was different. He was excepting and welcoming. He had already given her so much, and to know that he was so excited to meet her son made Juliet’s heart skip a beat here and there.
There was nothing more important to her in her life other than her son. He was the sun of her universe, the only star in her sky, the breath she took every day, and the prayer she said at night. Lucas was the beat of her heart, and smile on her face. He was everything to her, and she was so glad that maybe – just maybe – things would turn out good with Harry.
But time has yet to tell.. so she will wait and find out for herself.

Harry held the umbrella over Juliet’s head, making sure she was under it more than he was, he couldn’t care less about himself, he just wanted to make sure she wasn’t getting soaked in the horrible pouring rain.
They quickly made it to the front door and hurried up the stairs to stand under the small awning – it was enough to keep them both out of the rain.
“Harry.. thank you.’’ Juliet whispers softly, looking up to see his piercing green eyes staring down at her.
‘’Don’t thank me.. I’m doing this for you, not because you asked me to, but because I want to.’’ Harry assures her with a small smile.
She nods lightly before turning to face the door. She lifts her hand and gently puts her knuckles against the wood. Juliet knocks loudly a few times, hoping to power over the sound of the harsh rain fall.
She heard someone say that they were coming, but the voice was distorted and she couldn’t make out exactly who it was.
Within a few seconds, the door opened and the both of them were greeted with a bright smile and bright blue eyes. Juliet thanked God in her mind that it wasn’t her aunt, she had had enough of her lately.
Instead, it was Ragen, Juliet’s cousin. Her smile faded away lightly as her eyes trailed to Harry’s face. Ragen’s jaw dropped as she stood there and starred at the figure before her.
‘’J-juliet… that’s.. Harry-Harry St-styles.’’ Ragen says with a stutter in her tone.
‘’I know.. I have some explaining to do.. but first, where’s Luke at?’’ Juliet says with a smile.
‘’In the bedroom, in his crib. I was just about to rock him to sleep. Cathy’s went shopping so I’m here alone.’’ Ragen replies, referring to her grandmother.
Juliet sighed in relief, glad that she didn’t have to deal with her great aunt tonight, or at all for a while.
Ragen motions for them to follow her. Harry shuts the door behind himself and walks behind Juliet, glad to get to meet the baby soon.
‘’Will he be.. leaving me too?’’ Ragen asks as she guides them into a bedroom.
‘’Sad to say, but yes.’’ Juliet says as she heads over to a black painted wooden crib on the other side of the small nursery room.
‘’Lukey-pie, Mommy missed you!’’ Juliet says in a high pitched voice as she picks the baby up out of the crib.
The baby smiled as he looked into his mother’s eyes, realizing that it was her this time to hold her. Harry stood in the door frame, smiling lightly as he watched Juliet with the baby, softly talking to him and kissing his cheek constantly.
‘’Harry..’’ Juliet said, turning on her heel to face Harry.
He raises his eyebrows in question, but soon leans up from the door frame as Juliet hurries over to him.
‘’This is Harry…’’ Juliet whispers to Luke as she reaches Harry’s tall frame.
‘’Hey there,’’ Harry smiles as Luke’s blue eyes – identical to Juliet’s – look up at him, ‘’Can I hold him?’’
‘’Yeah..’’ Juliet smiles as she passes Luke to Harry gently.
He puts the baby in his arms and looks down on him, rocking his arms gently to keep him calm. Juliet sticks the pacifier in Luke’s mouth and he takes it automatically, glad that it’s there instead of nothing being in the space.
‘’I’ll help you get his things together.’’ Ragen says as Juliet steps away from Harry, picking one of the empty boxes that were brought to the house for this reason only.
Cathy was told that Juliet would come and get Luke within two days of her leaving, and she did.
“Where’s the car seat at?’’ Juliet asks.
‘’Um in the living room on the couch.’’ Ragen tells her.
‘’Harry..’’ Juliet says to get his attention.
He looks up from the baby, ‘’Yeah?’’
‘’Can you put him in the car seat for me? It’s in the living room..’’ Juliet says with a sigh as she squats down and opens up the empty box to start throwing the baby’s things into it.
‘’Yeah.. No problem.’’ Harry says with a light smile as she glances at him.
He didn’t want Juliet to be pressured, so he wanted to help out as much as he could right now, or at all really. Luke started squirming in Harry’s arms as they came into the living room.
‘’Are you okay, buddy?’’ Harry asks as he sits down on the couch and stands Luke up on his thighs, his hands on the baby’s waist keeping him steady.
Luke began to lightly babble at Harry, the sound of Harry’s voice caught his attention.
‘’Are you talking to me? You’re so cute, you know that. You look just like your beautiful Mommy.’’ Harry says with a smile as Luke leans closer.
Harry finishes the distance for him and laughs to himself as Luke rubs his face against Harry’s cheek.
‘’You’re adorable.’’ Harry whispers in his ear before leaning back against the couch.
A little bit of drool began to come out of the corners of Luke’s smiling mouth. Harry noticed and used his thumb to wipe it off his face, quickly putting his hand back on the baby’s body.
‘’Well aren’t you just the chatter.’’ Harry says as Luke continues to talk to him.
‘’Ma ma ma ma ma ma.’’ Luke blabs, his little tongue sticking out of his mouth as he finishes.
‘’That must be your favorite word, hm?’’
Luke smiles at the sound of Harry’s voice, this only made Harry want to smile and talk even more to the little guy. Harry moved Luke closer to him, just because he wanted to the baby to warm up to him more than he already was.
Harry let out a grunt as Luke grabbed a fist full of his hair.
‘’Ooh, buddy.. Let’s not do that.’’ Harry laughs lightly as he gently unballs the baby’s hand and pushes his hair back out of his face, and away from the little hands.
Luke began to bend his knees and stand over and over, slightly bouncing himself off of Harry’s legs.
‘’You like to move a lot, don’t you?’’ Harry says with a grin as he helps him out and lifts his thigh up so that Luke goes a little higher.
The baby giggles as Harry continues to little movements. Harry couldn’t keep the smile off his face, no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t stop.

‘’Harry will you..’’ Juliet’s voice said no more as her eyes witnessed the beautiful site before her.
‘’Did you need me to do something?’’ Harry says as he looks over at her across the room, his bright smile lightly fading as he stood up, the baby’s chin against his shoulder, still blabbing to Harry.

‘’Um.. No.. never mind, carry on.’’ Juliet says with a smile as she turns on her heel and goes back into the nursery.
Her heart fluttered as she began to fold some of the baby’s clothes to put them in the box, she couldn’t keep her mind straight anymore.
‘’What’s up with you?’’ Ragen laughs to herself as she goes over to the closet and opens the door to gather things up.
‘’Well, I went to ask Harry to help me with some of the boxes.. but then I saw him playing and talking with Luke.. and.. I just.. it wasn’t what I expected to see.’’ Juliet says as she puts a few outfits in a box.
‘’Oh, well, I assure you Harry definitely likes you.’’ Ragen smirks lightly as Juliet looks over her shoulder at her.
‘’Why would you say that?’’ Juliet says with a smile, rolling her eyes at the crazy thought.
‘’Well.. I noticed the way he looks at you, for instance.. when you guys were in the doorway.. he was staring down at you, barely biting his lip – but it was noticeable.’’ She says.
‘’That doesn’t mean anything.’’ Juliet sighs.
‘’Okay, well what about when you said his name earlier, before he left with Luke. His eyes lit up when he heard your voice.. I’m telling you, Juliet, Harry’s in love with you.’’ Ragen shrugs lightly with a smile, she knew it was true – anyone with eyes could see it.
Juliet just shakes her head lightly, but keeping what Ragen said locked in her mind to think on later on.
‘’Anyways.. how about you explain to me how in the hell you found Harry Styles?’’ Ragen says with a laugh releasing from her mouth.
‘’It’s a long story.’’ Juliet shrugs as she fills the second box full with clothes.
‘’I’ve got time.’’


* * *



“Thank you again Ragen! I love you so much.’’ Juliet says as she hugs Ragen tight.
‘’No problem, Juliet. I’d do anything for you.’’ She whispers into her ear before releasing her.
Juliet picks up two of the smaller boxes and heads out of the door. They were just now getting the things into the car, an hour had went by fast since they got here.
Harry passed Juliet on the stairs, throwing her a smile as he headed back inside to get some of the heavier things.
He had to help the girls take down the crib, because they honestly couldn’t do it – mainly because they didn’t know how. But Harry helped and he’s already loaded that into the trunk.
He insisted on bringing in a team of designers to remodel one of the guest rooms in a nursery, but Juliet denied it – even after Harry told her he was doing it anyways. She didn’t retort to it, she just thanked him as usual.
‘’Harry..’’ Ragen says as Harry picks up a box.
‘’Yeah?’’ He asks, turning to face her.
‘’Thank you.’’
‘’For what?’’ Harry smiles.
‘’Juliet told me.. everything and I, I just wanted to thank you. You’re a very amazing person, you know.’’ Ragen tells him.
‘’Thank you, and I assure you that Juliet’s in good hands. If you ever need anything, let me know.’’ Harry tells her, putting emphasizes on you.
‘’Alright.’’ She nods lightly.
‘’I’ll be sure to let Juliet know to give you the address to my place, you’re welcomed anytime.’’ Harry says.
‘’You don’t have to do that.’’ She says with a small laugh, only taken back by Harry’s kind offers.
‘’I promise it’s no hassle, besides, I’m sure Juliet will get lonely and want some girl time every now and then.’’ Harry says, smiling as he adjusts the box in his arms.
‘’Okay.’’ Ragen nods, smiling in return.
Harry truly was a good person, and that’s what Juliet needed – Ragen never doubted that for one second.
‘’One more thing.’’ Ragen suddenly said as Harry stepped away.
He stops and turns in her direction, ‘’Yeah?’’
‘’Do you.. have feelings for Juliet?’’ Ragen asks, furrowing her eyes lightly as she awaits his reply.
Harry looks down at his feet, sighing lightly before looking back at her. He doesn’t say anything, he only smiles and nods.
A smile swept across Ragen’s face, a sigh of relief leaving her mouth just as Juliet stepped through the door.
‘’Almost done.’’ She says to Harry as she passes him to get another box.
Harry gives Ragen one last smile before taking the box out to his car.
It was no secret anymore, it never really was. Harry knew he liked Juliet, but like was so simple.. he loved her, he as assure of that.
Were there things wrong with this? Yes. But did Harry care? No.
Love can withstand anything, and he strongly believed in that. Age is only a number labeled to someone in society, age meant nothing to him. When it came to Juliet.. he didn’t see sixteen years old, teen pregnancy, or even a child.
He saw maturity, beauty, courage, strength, and a smile. There were a lot of things Harry was fond of in this world, but Juliet topped the list.
As he was told, time brings those who wait the best.. So he must wait, and if that’s what it takes to get Juliet’s heart and give her his.. then he’ll wait.
Forever is a long time, but he surely didn’t mind spending it by her side.

“It’s getting late.. I think when we get to the house you should go on and go to bed. I’ll get the stuff out of the car and bring it in.’’ Harry insists as he glances over at Juliet.
She wasn’t looking out of the windshield like she was when they first left Harry’s driveway. She had her head leaned against the window, her eyes staring out at the night.
‘’Juliet, are you okay, love?’’ Harry says, concern in his voice.
She leans up and sighs, staring down at her lap, ‘’No.’’
‘’What’s wrong?’’
‘’I don’t know.’’ She shrugs, not even knowing why she suddenly felt bad.
“Are you not feeling well?’’ Harry asks her.
‘’I.. I don’t know, Harry.’’ She mumbles lightly, leaning her head back against the cold window.
‘’We’ll be home soon.. you’re probably just tired.’’ Harry sighs lightly, not wanting her to feel bad but knowing there wasn’t much he could do right now – other than assure her it would be okay.
‘’You haven’t ate anything in a couple of hours, are you hungry?’’ Harry asks her in a light tone, not wanting to get on her nerves, he was just concerned.
“I said I don’t know!’’ Juliet snapped out of nowhere.
Harry gulped gently as he kept his eyes on the road. His heart was trying so hard not to let his mind overpower him, but he just couldn’t keep strong.
His thoughts spilled from his mouth out of anger, ‘’Well excuse me for actually caring about you.’’
Harry’s voice erupted through Juliet’s ears, making her jump slightly. Her yell was nothing compared to Harry’s.
Juliet didn’t say anything, she just kept her eyes closed and her mouth shut. She was afraid more than anything else, forgetting the fact that she didn’t feel good before.
Harry’s eyes look into the rear view mirror, checking on Luke to find he was sleeping peacefully – somehow in all of this noise the baby was still asleep, it shocked Harry really.
‘’Juliet.. I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scream.. I’m just worried, okay?’’ Harry sighs, now knowing why he even done that in the first place, he just knew he couldn’t control it.
Juliet looks over at him and halfly smiles as he looks back at the road.
Harry hold his hand out to her, waiting for her to place her in his palm. She doesn’t hesitate to sit it gently on his. He laces their fingers and squeezes her hand tightly.
‘’We’ll be home soon.’’
