Warnings: Angst, Language
A/N: So I’ve decided to write for Harrison Osterfield simple because I’m a sucker for the blue eyed boy and I have wanted to write for him for ages. So yeah here is my first Harrison Osterfield imagine I hope you guys like it and remember requests are still open!
You look at your phone for like the twentieth time in the past half hour, you clicked on Snapchat and just look at the unread message, expecting that it would have been read from the last time you checked about 2 minutes ago. In all honest you knew the message was never going to be read as it had been unread for the past 2 weeks. You sigh and place the phone back down on the counter and carry on making you and Harrison a cup of tea. Harrison looks up from his laptop after hearing you sigh, he knows that something is wrong, you two have been best friends for as long as you both can remember so he knows you better than you know yourself and for the past couple of weeks he knows that you haven’t been your normal self and it breaks his heart seeing you like this. You finished making the tea, you place your phone in your pocket and head towards Harrison, who is sitting at the kitchen table. You place both mugs down and look at your phone again, yet again finding the message still unread.
“Everything okay?” He asks.
“Mmmm.” You reply taking a sip of your tea.
“Y/n. I know you are lying. Talk to me please.”
Harrison shuts his laptop, giving you his full attention. You don’t look at him as you feel stupid to why you are feeling this down. You had started talking to a guy called Luke a few months ago and even met him a couple of times, you thought Luke was really into you after everything that he had said to you but suddenly the messages weren’t the same when he did text you, which was sometimes just once a day and then he just stopped, you had no idea why he hadn’t read your message from a couple of weeks ago but you did know that it hurt. Whenever you thought of all the late night phone calls, all of the things he said to you, they were obviously lies. You cried yourself to sleep most nights, no one knew about this even though you were currently living with Harrison and your friends due to the virus, you managed to keep it from them or so you thought.
“Its fine Haz, its stupid really.”
“Hey. Nothing you tell me is stupid, I’m here for you.”
You finally let the barriers collapse that you had held up for so long and tell Harrison everything, he holds onto your hand as you begin to cry. He had no idea things were this bad, he knew you were speaking to someone, as you told him all about Luke and he truly was happy for you, even though Harrison had feelings for you, he could see how happy Luke was making you and that’s what mattered but it all made sense to him why you weren’t your normal self the past 2 weeks. You had fallen for Luke only to have your heart crushed and he hated that someone could do that to you.
“Every time I put a picture on Snapchat he would message me saying how beautiful I look and he would say that I am perfect but its all lies. I’m not any of those or else why would he stop talking to me. Obviously I’m just meant to be on my own, no one ever seems to hang around for too long.” You sniffle, wiping your eyes on your sleeve.
“Y/n, don’t put yourself down. He is stupid for doing this to you.”
“I’m going to have a nap. Thanks for listening Haz.” You say.
You head upstairs, walking past Tom on the way and he notices that you have been crying, when he enter the kitchen he spots Harrison with his head in his hands.
“Is everything okay with Y/n?” Tom asks.
“No not really. Some fucking douchebag has been messing her around and its broke her heart Tom.”
“Fucking hell. What a dickhead.”
“She thinks that she isn’t good enough for anyone.” Harrison feels Tom.
“Maybe its time for you to finally admit your feelings for her mate.”
“I don’t think today is the right time for that but maybe you are right I need to tell her how I feel but first I need to help her get over that dick.”
“You will Haz. If anyone can help Y/n its you.” Tom pats Harrison on the shoulder.
A couple of hours pass and you have yet to emerge from you room. Harrison decides to make you a cup of tea and bring it to your room to try and cheer you up a little bit. When he gets to your room he knocks the door, he waits for you to answer which you don’t, so he opens the door quietly to see you lying on the bed, phone in your hands. He knows what your are doing and he’s had enough. He sets the cup down and makes his way over to you before snatching your phone out of your hands.
“Haz! What the fuck are you doing?” You shout.
“I’m helping you get over that idiot.”
You try your best to get your phone off Harrison but he is much taller than you so its a losing battle. Harrison opens the Snapchat app and sees the unread message, he deletes it and removes Luke as a friend, you are still trying to get your phone back so Harrison pushes you gently on the bed and runs into the bathroom before locking the door.
“Harrison give me back my phone.” You shout banging on the door.
He looks on every other social media and your contacts for Luke to make sure he is blocked and deleted from your life. Once he is satisfied that Luke is no longer part of your life, he leaves the bathroom and gives you your phone back.
“Why would you do that?” You ask quietly.
“I’m trying to help you Y/n, looking at that message every 5 minutes isn’t going to help you get over him. Deep down you know its for the best.” He tells you.
“What if he tries to contact me? What if something was wrong with him and that’s the reason he hasn’t replied to my message.”
“Don’t do that, don’t make up excuses for him. You are better that that love.”
You don’t say anything, you walk back into your room and slam the door shut. You knew Harrison had done the right thing, you just didn’t want to admit that he was right about everything like he normally is. A week goes by and you are slowly getting back to your old self thanks to Harrison and the boys. Although Harrison hasn’t been his normal self towards you, he has been very affection, wrapping his arms around you, snuggling when you are watching a movie, kissing your cheek every morning. You aren’t complaining though, you like this side of Harrison it makes you smile and feel wanted. Deep down you knew you had feelings for the blue eyed boy but you never thought he would return those feelings.
Another week passes and Harrison is still the same with you but is yet to tell you how he feels. You are currently making breakfast for yourself and the boys when Harrison appears, wearing nothing but his joggers.
“Morning love.” He says before kissing your cheek.
“So I was thinking after breakfast and since the lockdown is slightly easing, we could pick up Monty from my moms and take him on a walk.”
“Yeah that would be lovely.” You smile.
“Great, so I’ll meet you at the front door at 10?”
You and Harrison take Monty on a walk in the woods, near his childhood home. Harrison lets Monty of the leash and lets him run around. As the two of you are walking, talking about random things, he takes your hand in his. You stop in your tracks and look at your hand in his, this felt right, you had never felt like this with Luke and that was you felt safe.
“Everything alright Y/n?” Harrison asks.
“Yeah everything is fine.” You say looking at him.
It was like time had stopped, like you were the only two people left in the world and it felt amazing. You felt happy again and it was thanks to the man standing in front of you. Thinking back he had done nothing but make you feel loved the past couple of weeks, doing little things for you, telling you how beautiful you looked on a daily basis. He had treated you like a princess and you had only just realised that.
“I need to tell you something.” Harrison finally speaks.
“I know you think that you aren’t beautiful or perfect or that no one wants you and you are going to be alone forever but Y/n my love you are so wrong. You are the most amazing, beautiful, caring, thoughtful person I know and that idiot couldn’t see what was right in front of him but I do. To me you are perfect and I would love it if you would let me spend the rest of my life showing you just how perfect you are. So will you be mine?”
Tears are spilling out of your eyes, how could you have not seen this before, Harrison your best friend since primary school, Harrison who has been there for you during your highs and lows. Harrison the guy you know you’ve had feelings for but were an idiot for not realising it sooner.
“Yes Harrison I will be yours.” You smile through the tears.
He lets go of your hand and wipes your tears away before kissing you. Sometimes you need your heart to be broken to find the one who is willing to fix it no matter how long it takes and lucky for you, you had found that person.
