We haven't talked in a week. A long and agonizingly dreadful week.
It was clearly a week wasted from my summer because all I did was lay in bed and watch Netflix. The only times I'd get up was to get some food and lock myself back up again.
There were times I'd even call the house phone just to lazily tell my mom to get me more food. And of course when I showered I'd usually just sit down and cry because of all the thoughts I was having. I didn't want it to end this way. Not like this. Not through a fucking text message.
And this one time when my mom came in, she gave me the talk. Yes, that talk.. No, not that talk. But the talk, if that made any sense at all.
Dean and Sam were quietly arguing from my tv, as my mom sat down beside me.
"Yes?" I asked.
I felt bad for my mom, seeing I hadn't really told her everything going on. Not like I had to anyway, this was my private life I guess.
"Alex is so worried about you." She sighed. "How long has it been since you last saw her?"
''I don't know." I lied yet spoke bluntly.
"Okay, what's wrong?" She frowned. "I hate seeing you like this. Is it stress? Is it college? Because if it is, I--"
"It's this boy. I know it's utterly stupid of me to be moping around like this because he isn't even here but.. God, he ruined my life." My voice shook as I paused the episode playing. "He ruined my life in the best way anyone could, and now he ruined my life further and.. Mom.'' I whined as she just takes me into a hug, even though what I was saying probably made zero sense.
"Boys." Mom sighed knowingly as she stroked my hair gently.
"Yeah I just.. He's all the way across the world, mom. I can't do this. I'm not made for pretending everything is okay when it isn't."
"Do you have feelings for him? Like, real feelings." She motioned as soon as we pulled away from the hug.
"I..I guess I do." I thought over it. "I know I haven't officially met him, but there's something about him that keeps me from leaving." I groaned.
I was the one who told him to keep his distance from me, drunk or not but it's been a week. Maybe he decided the same.
"If it's meant to happen then he'll be the one coming back. And if he really does care about you, I promise he'll come back." She tells me, her slight accent showing making me smile weakly.
"Okay." I sighed, but I was honestly just losing all the hope I had by now.
Mom left shortly after but what I noticed was that she didn't even bother getting me any food.
I gasped, jumping a little as I held a hand to my heart once my phone dinged twice.
Oh god. I take it, fully unphased already knowing by now that of course it wouldn't be Harry.
Nialler : natalie yo
Me : heyoo
Nialler : i just landed! I cant believe im home ahhh
Me : omg that must be so exciting
Nialler : it is ugh, i swear im gonna cry
Me : oml haha

Me : yeah
Me : um not really
Nialler : gasps

Is this the end of the world?!
Me : kinda. Well, the end of mine I guess
SIIIIIGH
Nialler : whats wrong?
Me : do you miss harry?
Nialler : styles? Damn of course he was my best friend!
Me : :'(
Nialler : im so lost
Me : me too niall
Nialler : oh god no way
Me : what?
Nialler : is harry crushing on you?
Me : idk
Nialler : oh im confused bc he's back in cheshire isnt he?
Me : bye
I groaned loudly, I didn't want to talk about it. I didn't want to talk about him.
I know I clearly said I'd move on from this, but hell it isn't going the way I planned.
I was a mess over a boy I never even met.. Yet.
Well I don't know if I can count on it anymore.
I spent another few hours after that watching reruns from season five of Supernatural.
I was starting to fall asleep as I hugged my pillow towards me.
My phone dings again. Dammit Niall. I was second
I unlock it and suddenly, I have lost the ability to even. What the..
.
Harry : i really like the song medicine
by the 1975
thanks for telling me about them
Me : harry
Harry : yeah
Me : wyd
Harry : well im texting you, a girl named natalie that i know she's gr8
Me : no no no no
you arent just going to pretend like this past week didnt happen what
Harry : im sorry
Natalie i got drunk and im being completely honest it wasnt me talking it was my bad side talking
But tbh, i remembered everything i said and just.. Idk. I was breaking you, i didnt like that.
And i read the message, the one where you told me to 'stay a stranger' and i agreed with you there, maybe we do have to move on so i kept my distance and i would wait til you talked first
And that's exactly why i havent spoken to you these past seven days
Me : oh
Harry : do you want me to stay out of your life?
I was overreacting mostly bc of this alcohol in my system but idk im sorry i cant explain myself as well love
Me : im stupid for saying this and i hate you so much rn for what you put me through this past week but i never wanted you to leave in the first place
i was only saying it bc idk, i lost all hope
im probably never going to get to meet you
Harry : im going to just say this right now, but im in tears
Me : me too
Harry : i was actually listening to the 1975 and i listened to medicine
The band overall reminded me of you bc you said they were your favourite
Me : harry aw
Harry : and i cried listening to the song bc its the perfect description of what i see in you, in us idk
Me : you want to marry me?
Harry : what
Me : the lyrics talk about wanting to marry that one person
Harry : I'd imagine you walking down the aisle actually
Me : stop right there *hand emoji*
Harry : im so so so so so so so so sorrrrrrrrrry
Me : why so many so's why so many r's
Harry : idk its my way of saying im sorry for being a dick and im sorry for probably ruining our non-existent relationship further
I'm SOOOOOORRRRRRRYYYYY NATALIE
Me : i dont want to seem like that one girl who just runs back to you after an apology
Harry : ill give you space? Do you need time? Bc if you need time to think about it I'll give you all the time in the world
Me : fuck
Harry : what did i just say something wrong or are u still niagra falls asf or
Me : YOU'RE JUST MESSING WITH MY FEELINGS IM JUST A GIRL A GIRL WHO LOVES TO EAT BAGEL BITES AND WATCH SUPERNATURAL MARATHONS AND CUDDLE WITH MY STUFFED ANIMALS

I dont understand you
Harry : someday you will love :)
Me : fine
Harry : ??
Me : well i forgive you for being senseless and drunk as you completely shattered my heart
Harry : be honest, was this week as long and dreadful for you as it was for me?
Me : yeah it was. I've been kinda bed ridden listening to sad songs and that playlist you made me
Harry : that sounds depressing
Me : IT WAS
Harry : but anyways, the point of my first text was to find an excuse to apologize but tbh i rlly like the 1975
Me : you and me both edwardo
Harry : you and me both.
Harry : i love how that sounds
Me : really? Me too.
Harry : and natalie?
Me : mhm
Harry : im not going to leave you. I mean, i wont stop bothering you for awhile so just saying, you're kinda stuck with me for the rest of your life.. through this tiny phone screen
Me : and well, i guess you're stuck with my potato self too
Congrats you win a potato how great does that feel
Harry : ._____.
Me : so we're okay?
Harry : we'll be alright.
Me : if you say so
Harry : through this torturing yet fun text swap, maybe someday in the future I'll finally get to see you
Me : please do bc idk if i can actually fly myself over there anytime soon. My mom paid off my tuition for uni, and she's probably had enough of paying for me
Harry : well natalie you clearly cant fly over here bc you dont have wings
Me : THESE WINGS ARE MADE TO FLYYYY

we're just going to have to keep talking
Me : harry
Harry : ??
Me : you make me rlly happy
Harry : i never thought I'd hear you ever say that, well in this case see you say that but
You make me the best version.. of myself.
Me : and the night you got completely wasted, did you.. idk, did you try things out with other girls?
Harry : no actually i passed out after our convo
Me : what would have happened if you didnt pass out?
Harry : i wouldnt. I wouldnt do that to you no matter how drunk i was baby
Me : but its inevitable, it would have happened if you were still in that state
Harry : but you have no idea how much i would have regretted it
Me : well at least they actually get to kiss you I'd be happy for you
Harry : no
Right now, i dont want anyone else okay? I want you to understand that nat
Me : so what are we then?
Harry : im not sure, what do you want us to be?
Me : well.. no matter how much i despise the thought of texting or long distance relationships, idk what this is
Harry : we can be whatever we want to be nat
Me : can we just be astronauts
