You Lost Me
Chapter One
Harry’s POV
“Come on, love! We’re going to be late for our dinner reservation”, I tell her. It’s already 5:30 and our reservation is for 6. If we leave now we’ll make it there on time.
“I’m almost done!”, I hear Bella shout from inside the bathroom of our bedroom. She just moved in with me last week. It was my first week of the One Direction hiatus that I’ve been looking forward to for about five years.
“Ok, let’s go”, my beautiful Bella says as she walks out of the bathroom (finally).
“Oh my gosh, could you possibly be any more gorgeous?”, I ask her. And that answer is definitely a no. All I told her was to wear something nice because we’re going to a nice restaurant. Her phone starts ringing and I can’t take my eyes off of her as she answers it. The red dress she’s wearing makes her look sexy, but not slutty. I love that about her; she never wears anything too showy, just enough. Her long blonde hair is in loose curls and she is wearing a red lipstick color to match the dress. She looks drop-dead gorgeous.
“Hello?... Oh yeah, hi Louis…. Yeah, we’re going out to dinner tonight to celebrate the hiatus. How did you know?.... Oh, okay… Well, tell Eleanor I say hi!... Yes Lou-... Yes.. I miss you too… Bye Louis!”
Bella got to come on tour with us for the most recent tour. So needless to say she got close with all the guys, but especially Louis. There was just some weird bond they had together. Louis is Bella’s best friend, but he better not tell her why we’re actually going out to dinner tonight.
Because tonight I’m going to propose to my beautiful girlfriend.
We’re pretty young, but I feel like I’ve known her since forever. We have been dating for two years and I feel like it’s time. Before I met Bella, I swore I would never get married. I wanted to live for the moment and never be tied down. But of course, then I met Bella and my life changed. Now, all I can think about is if I’ll get the chance to marry her.
Bella’s father passed away last year. They were very close and none of her family took it well when he had the heart attack. Her mom completely changed and couldn’t stand Bella or her brother, Mark. They reminded her of her late husband and told them never to come back or call. Which of course, broke Bella’s heart even more.
I asked her brother, Mark, for his permission to propose to his sister. He was ecstatic to give me his blessing. He said that she’d say yes for sure. I really really hope he’s right. Other than Mark, the only other people who know I will propose are Niall, Liam, and Louis.
“Earth to Harry!”, Bella says waving her hand in front of my face and laughing, “Come on, you’re the one who said we needed to go!” her laugh still brings butterflies to my stomach and it’s been two years!
“Okay, okay, let’s go!” I check the pocket inside my coat to make sure that the ring is still there. My stomach is uneasy and I feel so nervous all of the sudden.
We walk out and I open the car door for Bella. She sits and I check again to make sure I have the ring as I walk to the other side of the car door. Yup, it’s still there in the same spot as before. Oh my gosh, this is real. I’m actually proposing tonight.
“Honey, are you alright?” Bella says placing her hand delicately on my forearm.
“Yeah, why wouldn’t I be?”
“I don’t know. You just seem kinda off.” Shit, I seem kinda off.
“No I’m okay. I’m excited to be on hiatus. Now I get to spend all my time with you every day”, I say taking my eyes off the road for a minute to look at her quickly, “If you want me to, of course.” I give her my cheekiest smile as she giggles.
We’re halfway there to the restaurant. Now there are nervous butterflies in my stomach. What happens if she says no? I’ll be left on one knee with a pathetic look on my face.
“I love you, Harry”, Bella says softly.
“And I love you too, Bells.”
I check to make sure the ring is still where I need it to be once I know she’s looking out the window. I love how she loves to look out the window. It’s one of her little adorable quirks. She gets so fascinated by everything going on. She even does it on planes, to the point where she won’t talk to anyone. Not even Louis or I. It soothes her anxiety of heights.
“When are we gonna see the guys again?” she changes the subject, “I know it hasn’t even been two weeks yet, but I miss them.”
“I don’t know, love. Isn’t Louis coming back to London next week?” That’s her other surprise. The guys are at our house right now to surprise Bella. I know she’s been missing them.
“Well that’s goo-”
Suddenly, the car is pushed towards my side and I hear a huge crash. I look to my side as the airbags activate just to see my beautiful Bella covered in blood. The side of my Range Rover is completely smashed in on the passenger’s side where she is.
I can tell she’s unconscious, but I can’t process anything except for the fact that we were just hit by a car and Bella took most of the impact.
“I love you”, I whisper to my Bella as I lose consciousness.
