Dying Inside (Harry Styles)

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Concert! (P2)

Annalise's POV:

"Anna! Cmon." McKenna yelled as I walked out of our room. I was wearing a white cropped t-shirt with midnight memories on it and high waisted blue jean shorts. I tied my hair up into a ponytail and finished my makeup. McKenna was wearing a white cropped t-shirt with Let me be your last first kiss on it and high waisted blue jean shorts. I slipped on my black doc martens before grabbing my bookbag with all of my things. "Let's take a picture." McKenna smiled, finishing her makeup. I nodded and took a picture of the both of us in the mirror. I went on Instagram and posted the picture

@annaxo: going to see 1D with @mckennafaith 😘

I put my phone into my back pocket. "Ready?" I smiled and she nodded excitedly. As we walked to the elevator, McKenna's ticks were starting to get bad; something that happened everytime she was really excited. "Hey, calm down." I said to her, putting my hands on her shoulders. She eventually calmed down. "Thanks." She took a deep breath as the elevator doors opened.

"I wish mom and Carlee could've went." McKenna said to me as we got out of the limo. "Me too." Carlee got sick so she couldn't go and mama told me that she would watch over her. "Excited for the concert?" Simon asked McKenna and i as he started to drive to the stadium. "Of course! This is my first ever concert of my favorite band." I smiled and he chuckled. "I remember my first concert. It was at a festival so I got to see a lot of my favorite singers. It was amazing." He pulled into the back of the stadium; I could hear the screaming fans from inside the limo. "There's a ton of people." McKenna said to me and I nodded. Simon opened the door for us and we both got out. "Have fun you two." He smiled as McKenna and I ran inside.

"You look amazing babe." Harry smiled, picking me up and spinning me around. I laughed as he put me down. "Thanks." I blushed and looked slightly at the ground. Harry was wearing a black t-shirt and some skinny jeans. "You look good too." I smiled and played with the badge I had around my neck. He smiled and grabbed my hand as we walked down the backstage area. Different crew members that passed by us would say aww or nudge Harry on the shoulder, making me stay a dark shade of red the entire walk. Once we got to the lounge, McKenna, Harry, and I walked inside. The other boys were doing voice exercises while getting their makeup done. "Harry!" I heard a little voice say and looked down to see Lux walking over to him. He smiled and picked her up, kissing her cheek lightly. "Lux, this is my girlfriend, Anna." He said to her while looking at me. I smiled and lightly shook her outstretched hand. "Nice to meet you." I smiled as she smiled too. Harry put her down and she went to play with her toys. "Shouldn't you be warming up." I said to Harry as we sat on the couch. "I already did." He said and lightly pecked my lips. Everytime he kissed me, it still left me breathless. "Are you ok?" He asked as I finally caught my breath. "Yeah, I'm fine." I blushed and wiped the red lipstick that got onto his lips from mine. "Thanks." He smiled as I smiled too. "Boys, it's time." The stage manager said to them as they got up. "Good luck." We said to them and hugged them. "We can go watch them from the side if you want." Lou said to me and McKenna as Lux continued to play. We both nodded and walked to the side with her.

The concert was so much fun. The boys were being really cute as usual, especially Harry. He would give me little looks from time to time, making me smile. When it was time to sing Little Things, he sat on the bleacher closest to me and they started to sing

Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind, it was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks
And it all makes sense to me...

I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You've never loved your stomach or your thighs, the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endlessly

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if I do
It's you
Oh it's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason that you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me

I know you've never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh, you still have to squeeze into your jeans
But you're perfect to me

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all these little things

You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
And you'll never treat yourself right darlin' but I want you to
If I let you know I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, oh

I've just let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
'Cause it's you
Oh it's you
It's you they add up to
And I'm in love with you
And all these little things

I won't let these little things
Slip out of my mouth
But if it's true
It's you
It's you
They add up to
I'm in love with you
And all your little things

When they finished the song, I clapped and wiped away the tears that came out, making Harry run over to me and kiss me gently on the lips.
