Chapter 14

Recommended song: Why don't we go there ?

His lips are soft and warm on mine, despite the cold. They taste like cherry and I can feel him smiling while kissing me as I put my arms around his neck. His tongue pushes against my lips to meet mine.  We're soaked and frozen and all the fans that had gathered are taking pictures of us but right now the only thing I care about is Harry. He loves me and I love him. That's all what matters.

Suddenly a masculine voice interrupts us and yells at him. Harry breaks the kiss and takes my hand as we start running far away from the stranger.
We run hands in hands towards a deserte street and enter a small café.

"Here" he says as he takes off his coat and puts it on my shoulders, seeing that I'm shaking.

"What the hell was that ?"

"It was my bodyguard. I was with him and the boys when we parked the car at the airport and I ran away to join you. Now he's coming after me to take me back to the airport."

"You know you can't hide forever. You have that interview tomorrow night, you can't skip it"

He looks down and mutters something like yeah I know that's pretty unfortunate. But suddenly looks up at me, hope in his eyes.

"Come with me"

"What ?"

"To New-York ! Come with me. It would be great ! I will never stand passing the next two months away from you. Also you won't have to pay anything, the management will take charge of it"

"I... I don't know. I wish I could, it would be amazing. And I love New-York. But what am I going to say to my father ? And what about my studies ? I can't just leave for two months and go back to university as if nothing happened. "

"You're right" his eyes suddenly darken and he pouts as he frowns his eyebrows, and a small crease appears between them. He looks so cute when he's upset. I really wish I could go there with him. It sounds so easy, I just have to say yes, pack my luggage and follow him. But it wouldn't be reasonable. And if my father learns that I'm leaving everything behind, including my studies, to follow a guy that I met a month ago, he would never forgive me.
At the same time, I've always been told to listen to my heart. My head tells me to stay but my heart tells me to go. I've never felt something like that for someone before. That's why I shouldn't let him walk away from me. He loves me and I love him, it should be easy then.

"Okay" I mutter

"Okay ?"

"I'm coming with you."

His face lights up with a grin. His dimples widen and he pulls me into a hug.

"That's very good news" he whispers through my hair.

"I love you" I answer kissing his cheek.

Suddenly the bodyguard enters the café and pulls Harry away from me.

"Here you are ! What the hell is wrong with you ? C'mon we're leaving" He says in a angry voice.

"I'm not leaving without her" he snaps taking my hand into his.

"She can't come. You know that."

"Well it has never been a problem before when I brought Gemma with me or when the lads brought their girlfriends"

The man sighs and remains quiet before answering.
"Fine. Get in the car, I'll have to make a phone call then"

Harry smirks and leads me to the car. A few minutes later, we're heading towards my flat so I can get back some stuff and pack my luggage.

During the trip to the airport, none of us say a word until the bodyguard comes back on what happened earlier.

"Don't ever do this again Harry. Escaping like this was totally unconscious. You're part of a band, you can't do whatever you want. You have a planning and obligations and you have to stick to it. Your mistakes cost us a lot. Do you realise you're going to make the headline of the media and that you'll lose fans if you keep acting like a child ?!" He starts yelling and Harry's face darkens at this last sentence.

"It's ok man ! I just left for an hour ! I'm not only a commercial product or a media subject. I have a social life too, which you and the management seem to forget !" he snaps.

The man doesn't add anything. He probably knows that Harry's arguments are true.
Harry looks very upset, his eyelashes are frowned. I reach for his hand and he presses his in mine.

When we arrive at the airport, it's almost 1:00 am and it's empty. The bodyguard leads us to a room before boarding.
We're both very surprised when we see the boys in there.

"What are you doing there ? Have you been waiting for us ?" Harry asks

"Yup they didn't want us to leave until they find you" Liam answers

"And I see that you've found Charlotte" Louis smirks.

"I'm really sorry for making you wait. And yeah Charlotte is coming with us to the United States" he says with a proud smile, putting his arm around my shoulder and kissing my head.

"You two seem to have set straight your feelings. I'm glad to see you together, I've been waiting for this for so long" Zayn laughs.

"Yeah me too ! You look very cute together " Niall adds which makes me smile even more.

"Sorry for interrupting but it's time to go!" the bodyguard says entering the room.
