Harry Styles Fanfiction - Remember Me?

Chapter 147

**YOUR POV**
It was only a day later when Harry got home from another meeting that lasted several hours.

„Hey, honey." I greeted him as I heard the door open while I was in the kitchen making dinner.

„Hey." He said tiredly as he sat down on the barstool in front of the counter still wearing his coat as he let his keys fall onto the counter before he leaned down, almost falling asleep on it.

„Long day, huh?" I leaned over to kiss the top of his head.

„Just got out of the meeting." He sighed.

„You mean the meeting that started at 9 am?" I wondered.

„Yep. It lasted a whole of 10 hours."

„Oh my god, a long day indeed." I walked around the corner behind Harry and striped off his coat, revealing his favorite hoodie he was wearing. The one that was comfiest and even I stole from him at times to wear when I was cold.

„I'm starving...and my head is pounding." Harry said.

I rubbed his back soothingly after I went to hang up his coat. „Dinner is ready in a bit, lovie."

„Need help?" He asked sweetly.

„No, thanks."

He sat up straight. „We've got our first performance as a four scheduled now."

„You do?" I turned away from the stove to look at him, a bit surprised on how it went so quickly, but then thinking back of their management, I wasn't as surprised.

„Yeah, it's in two days. We'll be performing for Good Morning America."

„Oh wow. How are you feeling about it?" I wondered.

„I mean we gotta move on eventually, why not do it now? The statement for the fans is out, we gotta get them something, I mean they would have never expected that to happen." He explained.

I nodded. „Yeah, obviously. I think it's good that you guys get right back at it and don't lose too much time."

„I think so too." He agreed. „Could you uhm...could you please come with us and just be there? I'd really need you there for some support after all of this and after being away from you for so long. Knowing you're there would just make me a bit calmer. Would you wanna come?"

„Yes of course I'd come and be there for you." I nodded immediately. „Absolutely no problem."

„Thank you." He smiled a little. „I'm a bit nervous about performimg as a four though." He admitted.

„I understand, but theoretically the only thing that's gonna change for you besides him not being there, are his parts in the songs you're gonna have to take over. I mean you guys know the lyrics of your own songs so that won't be such a problem."

„Well." He tilted his head. „Louis doesn't know all the lyrics by heart. He keeps forgetting them."

„Louis is Louis, that's what he does." We both laughed. „But in the end he'll know and he'll be ready for it as soon as you're on stage."

„That's true, he always makes it somehow."

„There's really no reason for you to be nervous, H. It's gonna be an amazing performance I know it." I assured him with a smile.

„I hope so." He smiled back a little.

„Hey, also, completely off topic, but it came to my mind earlier. It's officially been a year."

He frowned at that. „A year? Of what?"

„You've completed your year of recovery. It's been a whole year since your surgery." I smiled again.

„It's really no big deal." He chuckled lightly.

„But it is, Haz. You did it, you've fully recovered."

„Not officially though, gotta see doctor Brown first and if she says that, then it's official." He said.

I tilted my head. „Well of course, but that's not really the point. The point is, you made it. You did it. You overcame what you were most scared of after surgery. It was a long and tough way for you, but you did it and I am so overly proud of you." I went around the corner again and pulled at his arm to get him off the barstool so I could hug him tightly. „You have no idea how proud I am of you, Haz."

He finally hugged me back tightly and placed a kiss on my neck. „Thank you, baby. I really can't believe it's already been a whole year. It seems like everything had just happened."

„Somehow it does, yeah. I'm glad it's over and you're okay."

„Me too...it's been hard." He admitted and it was one of the very few times he admitted something like this about it.

„I know." I said softly, letting go of him and softly kissed his lips.

„I just really need to thank you for this-."

I interrupted him. „I'm gonna stop you right there, Harry. First of all, you've thanked me so many times already even though you don't have to and second of all, you'll make me cry. I already told you, the only thing I need from you is-."

„To love you endlessly." He smiled, finishing my sentence.

I nodded, smiling back. „Exactly. To love me endlessly." I repeated. „You know, we have to celebrate this. We have to celebrate you."

„That's really not necessary." He chuckled.

„It is, it definitely is. I wanna do this for you." I went to open the fridge, obviously an almost empty one, because we were hardly at this house the past months. „We don't have champagne, but we do have white wine?" I turned back around, taking out the bottle.

„Whatever you want, love." He smiled, his dimples showing.

I finished making dinner first and as soon as we sat at the table, eating, we opened the bottle of wine to have our own little celebration.

„This is to you, to how far you've come this past year and finally to the end of your recovery." I raised my glass. „You've reached the finish line."

„Thank you. Thank you for everything. I really don't deserve you."

„Oh shut up." I said jokingly. „I love you so much, H."

„I love you more, sweetheart." He now raised his glass as well. „Cheers." He smiled at me.

I smiled back again. „Cheers."

After all, after the long ass meeting Harry had, I was able to make him laugh and enjoy the night, celebrating him a bit during dinner.
It turned out to be a beautiful night. Just the two of us, having dinner, drinking wine and just talk about everything except for all the shit that was going on right now.

I was glad Harry could take his mind off of those things for a bit and just enjoy our togetherness. The most beautiful thing was, seeing him genuinely smile and laugh, Harry's kind of laugh where he bent back and placed his hand on his stomach, that cute loud outburst of his that made his voice all high pitched, with his dimples and bunny teeth showing, the one that always made me smile at him and adore him even more.

He made me so happy just by doing this and I could stare at him being all giggly all my life long. I adored him, truly adored him. My life without him in it wouldn't ever be the same again.
