.


I sighed, sitting up against the headboard of my bed and switching on my lamp.


Running my fingers through my hair a few times, I ran a hand over my face as I had tapped the facetime button on Harry's contact.


After a few rings, he had answered and he was sitting down in a corner of a coffee shop.


"Hey!" He exclaimed.


"Oh my god, you look so fluffy." I smiled sleepily. "Harry, I really miss you. And it's only been a few weeks, I know but everyday that passes by I feel as if it's getting so much worse." I shook my head. I felt so emotional.


Yet again, it was 3AM, the perfect time to be sad and say shit I probably don't even mean.


"Remember the last time we spoke this late, we were talking pretty dirty?"


I blushed, looking away. "Didn't we agree to never speak of it again?"


"Sue me." He rose his eyebrows sassily, making me chuckle.


"But I mean how's life over there? I bet there's tons of pretty girls. You know, to keep yourself distracted." I half joked and half said. Actually, I didn't really know if I meant it.


Harry just frowned, as he stared at me, cutely leaning his head in his hand.


"No." He simply said. "I mean from what I know, none of these girls are my Natalie with chocolate brown eyes or have any corny jokes to enlighten my being."


"Excuse me?" I playfully hold a hand to my chest. "Corny? More like legendary."


"Nope." He shook his head, closing his eyes. "You're clearly no match for my comedic streak Nat."


"Shut up." I grumbled. "Your nonexistent comedic streak, did you mean?"


He groaned. "Come on please just agree with me on this."


I laughed at his frustration, closing my eyes as I leaned my head on the wall behind me.


"When you tell me a joke that has me choking my lungs out from laughing then maybe I'll think about it."


"Fine. You just wait for it." He pointed, sipping from his tea and cursing softly.


"What?"


"I kind of burned my tongue."


"Aw, Harold." I coo'd playfully with a pout.


"Wish you could kiss me to make it feel better." He hummed.


I smiled. "Well, when I get the chance I guess."


.


I was nearly half asleep, I had no idea how long Harry and I were on facetime but I was really tired to even function. I didn't want to say though.


"Hey, babe get some sleep alright? I'm gonna go ahead and leave." Harry spoke comfortingly, his voice was so relaxing.


"No." I mumbled. "Stay. Sing or something, or talk about anything. I-I just want to listen to you when I fall asleep."


Even though I couldn't see him through shut eyes, I imagined his expression softening, his emerald eyes doing the same.


"Alright." I hear him shuffling around.


My eyes sleepily opened, my eyes barely remaining open as I stared at my screen.


He smiled at me, putting a headphone into his ear as he began to walk out of the coffee shop.


"Once upon a time.." He began as his hair slightly pushed back, the wind blowing it as he slightly narrowed his eyes.


I laughed softly, my eyelids fluttering back closed as I cuddled to my pillow and held my phone to me.


"Go on." I whispered, inhaling and exhaling.


"Well, once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess named Natalie--"


"Wait could I be a queen?" I cut him off as he chuckled.


"No. I'm the one telling the story, aren't I?"


"Alright sassy pants. Keep going."


"Well she lived in a castle made out of everything she ever loved, vinyl records, concert tickets, candy, and all that good stuff."


"Wait.. How did that castle not fall apart then?" I cut him off, mumbling into my warm pillow.


"It didn't because I said so." He groaned. "But anyways," He breathed out. "Princess Nat had everything she ever wanted, she was so happy. She even had her trusty steed, Alex."


"Wait." I chuckled. "Why is Alex a horse?"


"Because she can be." He laughed. "And well she just had everything, but even though she was happy she couldn't seem to find out what was that small empty feeling in her. She soon found out that it was because she didn't have her prince though."


"So she escaped from her castle and went on a quest for this prince, on her trusty steed."


"Mmm." I hummed for him to continue.


"And she had so many adventures. She even had to cross a scary bridge that had a troll lurking underneath. Its name was Niall. The troll constantly tried to scare her away, chanting give me a chonce! god knows i tried. Princess Natalie was so brave."


I ended up snorting accidentally from laughing as I covered my mouth. Why Niall?


"Chonce?"


"Its an Irish thing." He replied, making me stifle my laugh.


"Ah."


"And eventually, Natalie did find her prince. His name was obviously Harry." He sassily said. "And they both rode on Alex as they kissed and sang some lame tv show theme songs as they rode back to her castle."


"They were so in love, but Natalie got attacked by a greasy burrito so Harry saved her by using anti-burrito spray so the burrito just ran away. After that, Princess Natalie really fell for him so they both got married and had little Harries and Natalies. The end." Harry finished making me smile.


"That was.. Interesting." I giggled. "I liked it."


"Really?"


I opened my eyes to find him smiling widely. His dimple was evident on his left cheek.


Ugh.. The urge to poke his dimple was real.


"Hey but about what I said earlier Natalie." He went on, and as I listened, my heart dropped when the call disconnected.


Poor connection.


The call has disconnected.


"No. No, no." I groaned, frowning.


When I tried to facetime again, the call wouldn't go through making me curse.


I quickly opened our texts and texted him instead.


Me : harry? What were you saying??


harry?


Harry : hey im sorry love. I dont know what happened, but i really have to get to classes im really late :(


Harry : text me in the morning when you wake up?


Me : oh okay


I love you


Me : harry?


Me : i miss you.


Me : good night


I press my lips together and frown when a tear had unexpectedly fell on my phone screen.


Sighing, I wiped my tears away and buried myself further under the covers.


More tears ended up leaving my eyes as I continued to cry. I know it disconnected on accident, it's not like I wasn't going to facetime him ever again or get to hear his voice again but it wasn't the same.


He wasn't here.


I scooted to the side of my bed and opened my bottom drawer.


Rummaging through, I held the ipod in my palm, the one that Harry had first gotten me awhile back.


It also held so much meaning in a way, even though it was just songs that explained our feelings on an extreme level.


I put some headphones on and played the playlist 'when you miss me' on full volume.


My eyes soon felt heavy, but so did my heart. And it absolutely sucked.


Sucked was clearly an understatement.
