The Best Gift!
(Y/N)'s P.O.V:
Hey! Harry! Look at me! Come on! Just look up! I'm standing here!
Okay so I was basically standing beside the tree near the cafeteria and I was staring at Harry who was busy in handling some papers with his buddy.
I had a crush on Harry since 5th grade and it was pretty hard for me to forget that it was just, just a childhood crush but under some circumstances I thought that it can't be a childhood crush because everybody knew that I liked Harry a lot.
I was in highschool and it's such a big coincidence that you're studying with your classmate who's been with you since 5th grade, without getting separated you've been with each other in every condition whether it's sad or filled with happiness.
We haven't talked much since we came to highschool because we made other friends and got busy with our lives.
But the main thing is, that everybody knew that we liked each other but the thing is, we didn't know that. I didn't knew that Harry also had a crush on me and he didn't knew that I had a crush on him because we always thought each other as a friend who's always there for you.
My Birthday was coming this week and all of my friends were getting excited and always taking permissions for a big party at their house and a night full of enjoyment but I never loved being surrounded by crowd but I loved myself to be left alone. So I of course said no.
All I kept wondering was what will Harry give me on my Birthday. I expected too much from him because he was very close to me and of course the person who's close to you and also has a crush on you, so you expect much from him.
My friends kept annoying me that Harry will confess his love for me and stuff like that which was impossible. I mean that was what I thought because he was my friend only and he must have girlfriend of course since he's very popular. There were thousand girls out there and what could he possibly find in me after which he'll choose me as his girlfriend. But still deep down I went nervous and hoped what if he does?
As I stood staring at Harry and spaced out in my thoughts, I felt someone nudged me hard.
"Well hello, look who's busy in what?" Stacey blurted out with a chuckle.
"Huh?! What?" I said while I came back to my thoughts.
"Oh did I disturbed you? Sorry!" She mumbled loud enough for me to hear it.
"So, what's up?" I said with a sigh as I stared back at Harry but he was gone already. He was not there.
"Nothing, Oh come on (y/n)! Please let us arrange a party for you although it's so awkward asking the birthday girl for arranging a party for her but still.." She said as she rolled her eyes in annoyment.
"No way Stacey, you know I don't love to be surrounded by so many people and in fact I don't wanna trouble you guys either." I said with a deep breath.
"This is not right, if Harry was arranging a party for you, you would do nothing but start panicking and getting ready for the party from morning and you'd be excited you know, being there first!" She said sarcastically with her one eyebrow arched up.
"Stacy you know that's impossible." I said, slightly blushing.
"Yeah right, it's all written on your face." She said while narrowing her eyes on me.
"Stop annoying me with his thoughts, he's just a friend and that's it. Nothing more and nothing less!" I said while raising my voice because I was nervous.
"Okay calm down, calm down!" She said while gesturing with her hands.
"Let's go or else we'll be late for our class." I said while holding my bag closer to me and after that we walked to our classroom and settled on our seats.
Soon the teacher entered the class and after a while she started teaching as I was staring at Harry who was sitting on the chair next to the chair which was in front me. I looked away and sighed, wondering about Harry's gift for me on my birthday.
The Day Before Birthday:
"Take care Miranda! Bye!" I waved at Miranda, one of my best friends good bye and walked back to my house.
The day was chilly so as the cool breeze blowed, I hid my hands into the pockets of my jacket and enjoyed the wind. I walked past the small park beside my house and watched small children playing with each other and their happiness made me happy too. One of the child among them smiled at me and another one waved at me while laughing. I smiled and waved back and continued walking towards my house.
"Mom! I'm home!" I yelled happily and so as my mom came out from the kitchen with a glass of water in her hands. She came towards me smiling and handed me the glass of water.
"So (y/n), how was your day?" She asked.
"It was good as usual." I replied.
"Good." She said and I smiled.
"So mom, how was your day?" I asked with a grin.
"It was great as always." She replied and I smiled.
After a while,
"MOM! TOMORROW'S MY BIRTHDAY! OH MY GOD I AM SO HAPPY AND EXCITED!" I yelled and ran all around the house happily.
"Okay relax sweetie and be careful!" She said while laughing as she watched me running everywhere in the house.
"Mom I'm so happy because I'm finally gonna turn 17!" I chanted as I stood in front of my mom.
"I know sweetie, I know.." She said while cupping my face from her wrinkled hands but still they were always soft and healthy for me.
"What do you have there as a gift for my Birthday mom?" I asked eagerly.
"Well of course that's a surprise, you'll only find out in night at 12:00am sweetie!"She said while brushing one strand of my hair away from my face.
"I can't wait!" I mumbled.
"You have to!" She whispered.
In Night at 11:55am:
As I came out from my bathroom after taking a warm bath, I climbed up on my bed while picking my phone from the table and checked the time. A smile formed on my face and I waited for that moment when I was going to receive thousands and thousands of messages and birthday wishes from the people I knew.
I heard a loud bang downstairs and wondered what if someone's here to give me a surprise. But that thought faded away as no one came up.I sighed and looked at the clock on my wall, ticking and it was still 11:58pm.
"Come on (y/n)! Just be patient for two more minutes and the result will be awesome!" I said to myself with a gesture.
I sighed as the clock ticked and I was waiting impatiently for the last of messages and awesome surprise I'll get to see.
After Two Minutes:
My door flew open and I got up with panic watching my mom dad and my best friends coming in with a large cake in their hand and one of them had a snow spray in her hand.
"No, no, no, no, no not the snow spray! I just had a bath!" I mumbled sadly as my mom dad hugged me and kissed me on my forehead and everyone wished me Happy Birthday.
Suddenly Miranda sprayed and we were all running around the room, getting away from Miranda who was chasing us with a snow spray in her hands.
"Girls watch out!" My mom yelled and suddenly we all bumped into each other and fell. We stared at each other for a second and started laughing.
"Thank you everyone for the surprise and specially for the cake!" I chanted.
"Our pleasure (y/n)!" They replied one by one.
After the surprise, mom dad showed me their gift and it was a pendant with a picture of me and my parents. I loved necklaces and pendants and all the other stuff like these so I immediately wore it after the moment I received it.
The main thing is, I was wondering and waiting for Harry's gift.
Time passed and my heart broke into small pieces as I waited for Harry's call, text or mail but there was nothing. I watched the clock ticking and now it was 01:00am but there was still nothing. Everyone had slept but I was still awake with this hope that what if he remembers and he wished me because it was not very late but again there was nothing. I sighed again, feeling that I was about to cry any minute now.
Harry's P.O.V:
Oh god! Everything is finished! I'm doomed! I'm dead!
"Seriously? For how much longer to I have to wait like this?!" I said angrily.
"Relax! Just a couple of more minutes and then you're off..!" Jesse said. One of my buddies.
"I can't wait any longer! She's waiting Jesse?!" I said surprisingly.
"Come on! Can't she wait for you this longer?" He said with a smirk.
"Very funny! Now I'm going!" I said while throwing my hands in the air and getting up from my bed.
"Wait not now!" He said while stopping me.
"What do you mean not now? It's already 01:00 am and I have to go to her right now!" I said angrily again.
"Okay okay go! and if anything goes wrong then don't blame me!" He mumbled.
"I'll handle it!" I said and I rushed down the stairs.
After A Minute:
"Oh god! (y/n)! I'm here! I'm finally here! Today's my day! I hope you say yes!" I mumbled while panting heavily as I was running to (y/n)'s house to give her the best gift ever!
(Y/N)'s P.O.V:
"So, that's it! There's nothing left. I thought Harry was my best friend and that he'd be the first one to wish me but still he didn't and I'm still waiting for him?" I said to Miranda. She called me a minute ago.
"I know that it's hard but I know this too that he is not like that. He won't do anything that'll hurt you (y/n). Just have a little faith."
"How? how can I have faith in him Miranda? Everything is over. My chest hurts and I guess you know why. I can't stop thinking about him when I know that he doesn't even like me. It seems like he avoids me Miranda. whenever I try to talk to him, he just finishes off the conversation in a speed like he doesn't want to talk to me or he dislikes me or anything like that? What did I do which made him hate me so much? I...I love him Miranda and that's all I know. It hurts when you love someone and that someone doesn't loves you back the way he should. It hurts a lot..." I said while my words choked because I was controlling my tears.
"Oh (y/n), it's gonna be okay...everything's gonna be alright..." She whispered.
"No Miranda. It won't.." As I was completing my sentence, a call came and it was Harry's call. My heart skipped a beat and I just kept staring at the screen.
"Can..C..Can you hold on for a second Miranda?" I asked Miranda as I controlled myself desperately from crying.
"Okay sure (y/n) take your time.." she said and I ended the call.
I was so angry and sad both and I just wanted to cry so hard and cry til hours and hours to lighten myself a bit. But it wouldn't be enough.
After when I ended Harry's call, I threw my phone away on the corner of the bed and grabbed a pillow, and cried for several minutes till Harry again called. I gasped and looked at my phone which was blinking on the corner of my bed. I gave up and decided to receive his call. My hands were shaking as I slid the screen I could hear him panting heavily on the other side.
"Look out from your window.." His hoarse voice said and I gulped harder.
"W..Why?" I said being confident and suddenly he hung up.
The anger flushed through me veins and I was so damn angry. Why the hell did he ignore my question besides he was panting heavily? Why?
"I won't go towards my window!" I said angrily and I cried again.
I sat on my bed and waited for another call, text or mail from Harry but there was nothing. I got worried. What if he hates me more? Not again. I thought sadly and stared out from the window.
After a second a kept the pillow on the bed and got up, walking towards my window. As I leaned in and looked down my heart skipped a beat and I was left breathless. I opened the door and stormed outside the house like a thunder lightning and ran towards the park. He was standing there and he was still waiting. He was staring up in the sky and he had crossed his arms and he stood beside the fence of the park. Tears fell from my eyes and I felt something for him in that moment.
I smiled and walked towards slowly increasing my pace. Suddenly he looked at me and stood straight. I smiled and from walking I started running towards him as he opened his arms and I jumped and hugged him so tightly. I felt like he was a precious little thing which I had to keep safe by not letting him go away from me. He let go and I stood close to him. Our noses were touching and I was breathing heavily. I looked up and met his beautiful eyes and I swear that what he felt for me was also written in his eyes. He also loved me but what if he doesn't?
"You're still here..?" I whispered.
"Yeah I'm still here.." he whispered back as I blushed.
"Why?" I said as he cupped my face with his hands.
"Because I knew that you would come down for me.." He said as I slightly smiled.
"I don't know what to say.." I said as I stared at him sadly.
"You don't have to. Just listen to me.." He said with a smile and he took a step back from me. I frowned.
"I know that it's been hard for you, for us." He continued, obviously uncomfortable with what he was saying but still he continued, "I love to be with you and I'd like to keep that up now that you're here..." He admitted shakily, "It's killing me (y/n) and I just wanna tell you about how I feel, I know it's not much more of a gift but um..I think this feeling is more than like, what I feel about you is more than just like because I don't know how to define that feeling (y/n), I just don't know.. It's somewhere between like and love.. and..I for the past few weeks I've been trying all day and all night just to figure out what this is.." My heart was beating so fast that I bet he can also hear it. I couldn't breath and he continued, "I always wanted to tell you that.. I love you (y/n) because you're the only thing in the world which matters to me most. I know that my words aren't enough because I don't have the courage to tell you about how I felt for you but your smile was the one which gave me courage and I wanted to tell you that I love you and.. that's all I know.. I've loved you since 5th grade and I knew that it wasn't only a childhood crush but it was more than that. I always found ways to tell you but then I thought it was too early..then I didn't have the courage when I had the most amazing opportunity to tell you this but I avoided you so that I couldn't hurt you by telling you this that I loved you, I love you and I will always love you (y/n).. I guess that feeling is love... It's not between like and love but it's both.." He finished and I couldn't stop staring at him with my watery eyes.
"Harry...that's the best gift ever compared to anything that ever gave me... I thought that you hated me because you avoided me and I know that it has been hard for both of us and by seeing this that you've gained this courage to tell me about how you feel so I guess I should also tell you that I also love you Harry! I always wanted us to be together forever and that's the reason I always hated your girlfriends..I always have loved, I still love and I will love you.." I said while my words choked.
His smiled grew wider making me blush and suddenly he pulled me into a big hug and kissed my forehead.
"You're the best.." He whispered and he slightly chuckled. He lifted up my face and came closer to kiss me. I returned the kiss back with the same amount of passion and love for him as he made me feel in his kiss.
