Need You.
Authorâs Note: Hello! After answering tons and tons of asks, and explaining how Tumblr had deleted the second part âPlease Stayâ to my one shot named âOnly Ifâ for god knows what reasons. I had to do this for you guys. I stopped writing years ago, and but kept my masterlist open for you to come and read my writings whenever you wish to. Trust me, this was so effing difficult for me to do! but Iâm kind of proud that I removed the time and managed it. but let me inform you itâs not the same, because I do not remember what happened in the original one clearly. I hope this is a better and hopefully more well-written (amongst my other writings *cringe*) version of the old one.
Itâs not proof read. IÂ haven't edited it, so Iâm sorry in advance for the typos.Â
So, guys, gals and non-binary pals, I present to you (apology for it being light years late) the part two to your favourite little creation of mine âOnly Ifâ, with a new identity... please welcome âNeed Youâ!
Do let me know how it makes you feel in the ask box or comment section. I love reading them. Happy Reading!

Warnings: tons of angst with tons of fluff, sensitive harry???? (or do you guys call it sub!harry nowadays??) anyways itâs a cute!harry :P !
.
Itâs been four hours, and you still werenât back. Though it wasnât new for you to go for a drive after an argument with him, you often came back within an hour or two. The blizzard outside was making Harry quite anxious. Even though the fight was extreme, he wanted you back safe and sound. He now realised how harsh he was on you. You didnât intentionally leak the song. It was a mistake and it could happen to anyone, himself included. He felt guilty over the way he yelled at you; it wasnât like him to react like that.
Suddenly, Harry felt the need to do something special for you. Though he planned on apologising to you verbally, he wanted his actions to prove it too. He made his way to the kitchen to cook you your favourite meal. He got a hold of his phone and switched on the playlist which include all the songs both of you enjoyed. the sound of the vessels clucking against each other minimised over the song playing on through the speakers.
A smile lit up on his face as he reminisced back to the moment when you were dancing to this song while making the two of you breakfast.
FLASHBACK
Harry rubbed his eyes as he walked down the stairs, his dimpled smile already making its appearance when he heard your voice blasting through the kitchen entrance. He didnât know why you bothered turning the song on so loud, you were anyways going to be louder. He stopped at the kitchen entrance, a silent laugh escaped him as he leaned against the door frame and took in the scene going on in front of him.
âYou say you want a good time! Well here I am, baby, here I am, babyâ you belted out loud, cheeks turning red with the happiness radiating out of you. Youâd decided that the whisk was your microphone of choice with batter stuck to it and everything. Youâre moving those luscious hips which drive him crazy right to the rhythm of the song.
âTalk to me, talk to me, talk to me talk to me, tell me what's on your mind!â you missed a note but you donât care. This scene right in front of him, he wished he could capture and watch it forever. Bruno Mars did bring a wild side out of you, and he couldnât bring himself to be jealous of the multi-talented singer. He would give anything to see you like this. Knowing youâre the shy type who doesnât enjoy too much of attention, getting to watch you like this was definitely a sight.
He walked right up to you and wrapped his arms around you slowly. You jumped in a scare, as you were lost in your own world. âHarry! You scared me.â You complained, trying to ignore the blush on you cheeks after you realised he mustâve been watching you from a far.
He nuzzled into your neck and sighed, while pressing a kiss there, âHmm⊠Iâm sorry, mâlove. But you just looked so beautiful I didnât want to stop you.â He murmured while pressing more kisses to your neck, then trailing them up to your jawline. âYâ look utterly ravishing right now. Forget pancakes, instead Iâll have you for breakfast.â He smiled and went on to kiss your cheeks. His comments made you smile. He saw his chance and lightly bite the side of your cheek. You squealed and tried to push him away.
âH, stop!â you laughed. He tightened his arms around you and swayed to the beat of the song then went on to sing next lyric âTell me baby, tell me, tell me baby what you tryna do!â he slightly lifted up your t-shirt and moved one of his hands under it, and muttered, âhuh? What are you trying to do to me, baby?â and pressed yet another kiss to your cheek.
âGosh, your hands are extremely cold!â you gasped. He then turned you around to face him. You instinctively wrapped your arms around him. The two of you smiled quietly towards each other, then he leaned down to kiss you properly. You shifted one of your hands into his the nape of his neck and the other went on to cup his cheek. He moved one of his around your shoulder and the other around your waist. Both of you sighed and bathed in each otherâs presence.
âGâmorning, froggyâ you teased as pulled away first and smiled up at him. He frowned and tutted, then smacked your ass lightly. You always teased him for his morning face, said it looked like a cute frog. He rubbed the area he spanked and quickly pecked you once again before pulling away to look at you.
Brushing away the hair stuck to your face, âMorning, precious. Howâre you feeling?â he asked, hugging you towards his chest. Letâs just say the rest of the day went on just like this. Him being needy for your attention, and you loving on him without any hold backs.
END OF FLASHBACK
Right as he was getting ready to plate the dish, the doorbell rang. He smiled, happy to finally have you home. He quickly washed his hands and walked up to the door as he rubbed his hand dry with the towel which was once on his shoulder. He buzzed you in thinking youâll unlock the main door with the security code. But after two minutes of waiting and not seeing you walk through the door, he turned on the camera above his buzzer to see what was wrong.
He frowned when he saw two police officers standing outside his door. His heart suddenly started racing at rapid speed. He rushed towards the door and unlocked them. Coming face to face with the two sombre looking men, he tentatively asked, âGâ evening, officers. How may I help you?â
The two men exchanged looks and the tall one replied, âSir, there has been an accident and we found an ID on the victim. Is this Ms. Y/N Y/L/N residence? weâre here to inform you about the unfortunate event.â
âI-I donât understand? What happened?â he stuttered, his legs almost felt as if they were about to give up.
âUnfortunately, we donât have much information for you. May we ask whatâs your relation to the victim?â the other officer asked, and gave him an apologetic smile.
âFiancĂ©.â He cleared his throat, trying to calm himself down. He could feel his panic attack rising. âIâm her fian-â he shook his head, âJust tell me where she is pleaseâŠâ he pleaded and quickly put on his shoes. He took his car keys and raced up to his rover.
âSheâs over at St. Thomas, Mr. Styles.â The officers had clearly recognised the distressed man. âHereâs her ID. We hope everything is well.â
Harry couldnât bring himself to thank them as he started his car and backed out of the parking spot. He raced up to the hospital, and once he reached, he ran up to the reception.
âY-Y/N Y/L/N? S-She just c-came in? Iâm her f-fiancĂ©?â He gasped out your name. The lady was busy tending to others to notice him. âHey! Hey! Please maâam just tell me where she is!â he was on the verge of weeping in front of her.
The old lady looked at him with a bit of annoyance, âTake a breath, young man. Iâm trying my best here!â She walked up to him. âNow tell me, what was her name again?â
âY/N Y/L/N!â He rushed. He couldnât stand straight. Once he got what he wanted, he ran towards the elevator, up to the fifth floor. The corridor was busy and he couldnât care less about pushing people aside. He just wanted to get to you as soon as he could. He found your door and barged in, not caring about the doctors around your bed.
âY/N!â He rushed to your side, dropping beside your bed.
âSir you canât be her-â the male nurse tried to pull him back.
âIâm sorryâŠIâm so sorry, precious!â He cried, trying to get the man off of him and get back to you. âIâm here now, okay? Iâm not going anywhere- GET OFF ME. SHE NEEDS ME!â he yelled pushing the guy away.
âHey man youâre no good to her at the moment yeah? Let the doctors do their job!â the nurse tried to make him understand while pulling him back yet again. Tears streamed down his face as he tried to reach to you. He sobbed over your state, blood was streaming down your forehead, and all he wanted to do was protect you and wrap his arms around you.
âNo I need to be here! Please let me!â he cried. All of sudden a beep brought his cries to a halt. He looked around frantically wanting to know what had happened. âW-Whatâs wrong?!â he hiccupped.
The doctor and the nurses around him started rushing around the room. He then heard those words which made his heart stop, âShe has flat-lined! Someone pass me the defibrillator!â the  doctor raised his voice.
Harry couldnât believe this was happening. The nurse had enough of the unwilling man and pushed him out the door, âSir we cannot help her if youâre being difficult. Please calm down and go to the waiting room. We will inform you about her doing as soon as we can.â and then shut the door to his face. Harry could no longer see you. The group of doctors, covered your body.
He slid down the wall next to your door and sobbed into his hands. Only if he wouldâve stopped you from leaving. Only if he wouldâve told you that he forgives you and that he loved you more than anything. Only if he wouldâve let the argument die and kiss you instead. Only ifâŠ
Later, the upset man walked himself to the toilet. He caught his reflection in the mirror. He didnât care about his red swollen eyes, his sweaty forehead and matted hair. The image of you lying on that bed yet again brought tears to his eyes. The thought of you not making it made him retch and he rushed into one of the restrooms. He dry-heaved and cried. Once he was able to breathe, he took out his phone.
Sniffling as he dialled the only number he could think of, The voice on the other side made him breakdown. âMum I-â he couldnât complete his sentence, as he tried to wipe his eyes.
âHarry? Darling whatâs wrong?!â she asked shocked at her sonâs rapid breathing.
âY/N s-she is- Mum I canât lose her. Iâm such an idiot. I shouldnât have let her leave. What if she doesnât make it?â He wept while running his sticky fingers through his hair.
âLove, what-â she tried to ask him, but he cut her off.
âWhat if sheâŠWhat if she dies, mum?â he cried and coughed.
His mother had figured out by now that you were not okay, and might be admitted in the hospital. She tried to calm her son through the phone. Unfortunately, she wasnât near him and by the time she would reach it might not be enough. So she did the only thing she could once Harry hung up the phone, she rang up his friends.
Harry sat himself down on one of the wating room chairs. No one was telling him anything, he had no idea how you were doing or if you were okay. He was out of tears, and soon enough the exhaustion took over him. He didnât even realise when he had fallen asleep until he felt a hand brush the back of his head. He opened his eyes and saw his two friends crouching in front of him.
âHey buddyâŠâ Louis smiled softly. Harry jolted back up, and got up to run towards your room. But before he could stand up straight Mitch stopped him. âH, they just came in here to inform us about her condition.â
âHowâs she? Is she okay? Is she awake? She needs me, I need to be beside her.â He rushed. His two close friends, tried to calm him down.
âThey said sheâs stable now, mate. But we arenât allowed to meet her yet, okay?â Louis stated.
Harry took deep breaths and looking at their extremely destressed friend, Louis pulled him into a hug. Getting the comfort he desperately needed, Harry started sobbing again. He was tired of crying but he couldnât bring himself to stop.
âEverything is going to be okay, Harry. Sheâs our little tigress, sheâs going to pull through, yeah?â Mitch ran a hand drown his friendâs shoulder. Harry nodded lightly and tried to slow down his heart.
48 Hours Later
Itâs been two days, yesterday Harry was allowed to visit you since they moved you out of the ICU. Thankfully, your internal recovery was rapid, and you could wake up anytime. He was getting a bit impatient. He wanted to see you open those shiny eyes and look at him the way you always did, with so much love that made him giddy and flustered. These past two days heâs been talking to you, continuously apologising for his behaviour, and how heâs going to make up for everything that went wrong. You just had to come back to him.
âand then Louis got frustrated because Mitch was not answering him. But thatâs Mitch for you, right?â he slightly smiled and ran the hand which wasnât holding you hand, through your hair. âYouâre going to hate your hair, once you wake up. You always like them a certain way, donât you? But donât you worry, Iâll help you wash your hair as soon as you wake up and come back home.â He stated and kissed your hand. He was silent for a while, just continued to run his hand through your hair.
âYouâre going to come back to me, right precious?â he asked quietly, âWhy arenât you waking up, huh? Your froggy needs you to open your eyes....â he continued, as he forced a laugh out of his throat which had a huge lump in it. His eyes turned misty as he continued, âI hate it here. Seeing you like this is a nightmare. I miss you so much. I miss you calling me annoying little names. I miss you smacking me when Iâm being a narcissistic little prick. I miss your voice. I miss everything about you, and even though itâs just been two day, I feel like itâs been forever. Wake up, baby. PleaseâŠâ he pleaded.
As the day turned into night, Harry decided to stay back. He asked for an extra blanket and a pillow for his makeshift bed on the couch. He didnât know why he bothered because he spent the entire night sitting beside you, holding your hand as he fell asleep leaning against it.
You could listen before you could see. The only thing you could hear was the air conditioner and someone lightly snoring against your right hand. You tried to move your fingers as you opened your eyes. The bright light made you squint, you blinked rapidly as your vision cleared. You turned to your right and saw Harryâs peaceful face sleeping against your hand. You felt the need to clear your throat, and your eyes searched the room for a glass of water. But the sound made Harry wake up from his sleep. He lifted his face and wiped the little drool from his face and the little amount on your hand.
âwhoops, youâd kill me now if you were awak-â he turned to look at your face, and he had to double take. He gasped, almost falling off this chair. âY/NâŠOh my- youâre awake!â he nearly yelled. He pressed the button to call the nurse and then cupped your face going on to press kisses to your face, âBaby I was so scared. I thought I had lost you!â He laughed his airy laugh and looked at you with utter happiness.
For some reason, you couldnât bring yourself to look at him. The words he said to you were the only thing swimming through your mind. For you time had stood still, like the fight had happened mere hours ago. You moved your face away from his hands. Harry frowned noticing this change in your mood.
âHey whatâs wrong? The doctor is on her way, yeah. Do yâneed anything?â he asked frantically following your eyes round the room. He saw you eye the plastic cup beside your bed, âYâ want water? Hold on Iâll get it for you.â He ran to the other side and brought the cup up to your face. You didnât realise how thirsty you were until the first sip hit your throat, you started gulping it down quickly.
âTake it easy, precious. They took out the tube just yesterday.â He explained softly.
Once your thirst was quenched he kept the cup aside then went on to pull his sleeve over his knuckles and wiped the wet corners of your mouth. You moved your face aside yet again, he couldnât understand what was wrong. But before he could ask you, the doctor came in to check on you. She did her tests and asked a few questions. She left as soon as she was done, and told you even though the injury looked worse than it actually is, you had take it easy for a couple of days.
Neither of you spoke for a few minutes, âHowâre you feeling, love?â he asked quietly. You nodded, âIâm okay.â He came up to you and raised his hand to caress your cheek. But before he could touch you, your head turned to the opposite side. He couldnât take it anymore, so he asked you.
âWill you please look at me? Whatâs happened, precious?â as he caressed your hair.
âWhy should I look at you, Harry? So you can tell me how careless I am, or how Iâm not trustworthy?â you rasped quietly. For a minute he was unable understand what you were trying to say. Then flashbacks from your fight the other night came back rushing to him. The things he said to you, and how guilty he felt later. His words had left a huge impact than he thought they did.
He took your face in his hand with very much to little force, he had to tell you this, âY/N yâhave absolutely no idea for how sorry I am for that night-â but you didnât let him complete.
âThatâs only because I got into this accident.â You snapped. He shook his head rapidly, he saw you getting worked up over this. Youâve always been a little firecracker, and you never failed to tell him when he was being a dick or to defend yourself quite amazingly, he always loved that quality. Apropos, he couldnât let you hurt yourself in this condition.
âFirst of all, please calm down-â he started, âdonât tell me to calm down, harry!â you raged. He hated himself for smiling when youâre clearly very upset. But for the past few days he had to witness you lie there lifeless which had taken a toll on his mental state. He loved the fact that you were awake, so you yelling at him was more of a reward than a punishment. You looked at him sharply and saw him not taking you seriously, this brought tears to your eyes.
You sniffled and looked away from him to rest your head against the pillows on the raised up side of your bed roughly. Harryâs small smile melted away as quickly as it appeared. He rubbed the side you almost banged to the pillow, âIâm so sorry, precious. I swear I did not mean anything I said.â He pleaded and took a seat down on the chair beside you.
Right then the nurse which pushed him out of the room the other day and now was much like a friend to him entered the room with a tray which had a bowl of soup and jello in it. Harry smiled at him gratefully and took the tray from him as the guy set up the table on your bed.
âHowâre you feeling, Ms. Y/L/N?â he asked once he was ready to leave. You gave him a small smile and said you were feeling better. The moment he left Harry looked back at you with a longing look on his face, when you refused to look at him he sighed and set the tray down on the small table and took a seat in front you on the bed. He looked at you as he removed the metal spoon from its cover, and then went on to remove the cover set on top of the soup. He blew light air on the spoonful of soup, then brought it up to your mouth. You refused to touch it. He sighed and looked at you pleadingly, âYâ know someone told me we shouldnât remove our anger on food.â He stated, turning your words against you.
You glared at him in anger for minute as he looked at you with a loving smile. âPlease?â He moved it closer to your mouth, âYouâve got to eat it, Iâm not budging unless you do, Y/N.â
Even though you wanted to stay stubborn, you were kind of hungry. So you let him feed you the soup. When he got to the jello, you refused profoundly. âBut itâs the chocolate flavoured one! Remember the time we used to share one when I was here for my fractured foot? Câmon weâll share this one too, if yâwant?â he tried convincing you with his soft eyes.
âI donât want to share it with you. Actually, I donât want anything to do with you at the moment to be completely honest.â you snapped. You were aware of the fact that you were being very unreasonable and bitchy but it was his words that has caused extreme hurt to you. Your words hurt Harry, and it was evident on his face. He wrapped up the jello and cleared everything. The day passed, and in the evening your last visitor entered the room.
âThere she is!â Louis came up to you and hugged you lightly, making sure not to hurt you. âHello, darling. Howâre you?â he kissed your forehead. Harry left you alone with him as he went to get the two of them some coffee.
âWhatâs happened to him? Why the long face still? I mean I get that Harry loves to pretend that heâs this macho man and all. Sâ a bit ridiculous to be honest. Like whoâs he kidding, heâs a puppy.â Louis laughed. You smiled at this.
âIâm still a bit upset with him over our fight. So I havenât been talking to him.â You explained. Louis frowned at this and then sighed, âOh love donât do that... This has been very tough for him. Shouldâve seen his state these past few days. The man has been a mess ever since the officers came to your house that night.â
âIâm trying, Lou. But I just canât forget all the things he said. I was so hurt, I still am!â you rubbed your forehead, as it was beginning to give you an ache.
âHeâs very sorry, Y/N. Trust me when I say that Iâve never seen him like I saw him that day. He just wanted you to wake up. He was just blaming himself, how he shouldnât have let you leave the house.â He took a hold of your hand, âhe loves you so much, darling. Heâs absolutely mad over you.â He rubbed your hand, âAâbit obsessed if you ask me. If I were you Iâd have him get that checked with a therapist.â He joked, you laughed loudly. He smiled with you, and passed you the water you signalled for.
âForgive him, Y/N. He canât even bring himself to go home. The only time he went there was to get some clothes, and to put the dinner he made for you in the rubbish bin.â He sassed. âand I know Iâm speaking for Mitch too here when I say this, but both him and I could use a break from all the non-stop stress weeping calls weâve been getting from him.â You gasped at him with a mock offence for Harry, and lightly smacked his shoulder. You were always thankful for Louis in moments like these. He was a great friend to you and Harry.
Harry came back with two coffees and passed one to his blue-eyed friend. He took a seat on the sofa which was against the wall, and the three of you, though it was mostly you and Louis, had a light conversation while the men finished up their coffee. Louis bid his farewell with another kiss on your forehead and a well wish, you thanked him and waved goodbye. Harry walked him out the door, and came back in a second later.
âYâ need anything?â He asked as he took a seat on the chair beside you. You shook your head as you observed him fidgeting with the cuticles of his nails. He did that when he was anxious.
Neither of you spoke for a while. But the minute you heard a sniffle, you snapped your head towards him. You tried to get a look at his face, the tip of his nose was a bit red and he was now fidgeting with his feet too. He wasnât crying but he sure was on the verge of it.
You suddenly felt an overwhelming amount of love for the man in front of you. You leaned against your bed and sighed, smiling a little. Itâs pathetic how in love you were with each other. You couldnât even stay mad at him.
âHarry?â You whispered softly. He hummed without looking up. So you continued, âI need you to do somethingâ you faked a stern voice to play with him a bit more.
âYeah sure, whatâs it?â he muttered as he got up and rubbed his hands down his thighs, then finally looked at you. You looked at him without an expression and said, âI need you to come here and give me a good cuddle, a kiss too if I like the cuddle.â And then smiled at him lovingly. He looked at you for a second. You almost thought he was  going to yell at you, but the opposite happened. He started tearing up and heavy tear drops ran down his cheeks.
You gasped and quickly leaned forward to take a hold of his hand which was near you. âOh Harry..â You whispered as you pulled him near you. He the minute you sat him in front of you, he started crying heavily. You were so shocked yet youâve never been more mesmerised by him. You quickly tried wiping his tears away and comforted him, âHoney, donât cry. Iâm not upset anymore!â
âI-Iâm honestly s-sorry! I promise I didnât mean what I said that day, Y/N!â he tried to speak while wiping his tears.
âI know, babe. I know!â you tried to say it properly but it came out in a laughing manner and tried to draw the crying man close to you, but seeing you laugh made him more upset and he pushed you away lightly, so you forcefully pulled him into a cuddle.
He told himself heâs letting himself be pulled because he didnât want to hurt you, but it was actually because he wanted you close, so he went in head first. You lay down against the pillows and cuddle him against your chest. He went on sniffling into your neck and wrapped his arm around your waist.
âHarry why are you crying!â you tried controlling your laughter. He whined and pulled his face away, âYâwere so fucking mean since the moment you woke up. I didnât expect it.â He said and hiccupped, thanks to the sobbing breakdown he just had. You pulled on your lips so you wouldnât smile.
âWell now you know, honey. It hurts, doesnât it? You were so mean to me too!â You teased. He nuzzled back into your neck, pressing kisses there which always made you giggle.
âIâm really sorry, precious. Honestly, I really am.â He said into your neck, yet producing another hiccup. You couldnât control yourself anymore so you smiled and pressed a quite a few smooches to his temple, and inhaled his comforting scent.
âItâs okay, baby. I forgive you. Iâm sorry for my foolish mistake too, I really didnât mean to ruin your hard work like that.â You apologised. He pulled away and brought the hand that was around your waist to your cheek and said, âI forgave you a long time ago, but you honestly donât have to apologise at all. It could happen to anyone, mâlove. I shouldnât have reacted the way I did. Yâknow I made dinner and everything as an apology. But then the officersâŠâ his tone dropped and he couldnât continue. So, you sadly smiled and pulled him in for a kiss.
He sighed and reciprocated the kiss with so much love and passion that you couldnât help but wrap the arm which around his shoulder a bit more tighter and ran the other through the back of his head gently. The two of you pulled away and looked into each otherâs eyes, he moved the hair that escaped from your braid and tucked it behind your ear, âI was so scared. I thought I had lost you.â He whispered softly, and swallowed the small lump, âI missed you a lot, babyâ he said and you couldnât help but peck his cute pout.
âI missed you too, froggyâ you replied. The pet name made him reward you with a dimpled smile. He nuzzled into your neck and whispered, âI love you.â
âand I love you.â You kissed his forehead.
âJust for your information, Iâm not letting you out of my sight for a really long time.â He stated sternly.
You laughed but stopped when you saw he wasnât joking, âYou know I have to work, right?â
âYâcan easily take a break for a month or two.â He said, as he yawned and cuddle closer to you. âA MONTH OR TWO?! Have you gone mad?â you gasped, lightly pulling on his hair.
âNo I havenât. Try to get rid of me, baby. I dare you.â He laughed a scheming laugh. You knew he wasnât joking. He tended to become quite paranoid and obsessive over you when situations like these occur. But you wouldnât have him any other way.
âWeâll see, mister.â You said, and caressed the back of his head.
âoh we will, missus.â
The End.
