Ever Since New York - Harry Styles

i'm sure someone's already said it but playing ever since new york is so symbolic in the deepest way like that song is not celebratory at all, not something you'd play after achieving one of the biggest milestones in your career, unless. unless it shows how deep he once was and how far he's come and how the measure of his success now is only relevant when compared to that sadness and. yk how hope and happiness are only truly meaningful when you acknowledge the hurt

Me causa curiosidad, aún crees en Larry como una pareja en pleno 2022. Veo mucha gente unlarriando por love of my life 😂

What do you think…?

2am shenanigans

In which Harry and secretly pregnant reader go shopping at 2 am and encounter a fan.

Fluff

No TW except harry being too cute

Picking up a packet of wotsits, y/n threw them into the shopping trolley. The crisp aisle was a long and treacherous one, every crisp and flavour calling y/n's name as she slowly progressed along. Her walk was slower and her footsteps heavier as she checked the time - 2:08am. The leggings she was wearing were growing tighter and tighter with every second as she rubbed at her growing belly, waiting for Harry to return. If he took much longer, y/n knew she would fill up the whole trolley with salty delights.

As she searched for the right flavour crackers, holding multiple packets on top of her belly, Harry snuck up behind her, surprising her with a quick hug from behind, causing a loud yelp to emit from her mouth, and a clutch to her crackers and belly.

"Harry!" She scolded lightly, with a glint of mischief behind her eyes, "don't do that! I thought you were some crazy fan or something! And you took way longer than '2 seconds'!" "You're right my love, 'm sorry," he replied with a small smile, but a genuine worried tone, sneaking his hands back around her waist, his chin atop her shoulder.

"How's little one doing?"

"Well, she's kicking up a storm after that monumental event," y/n replied cheekily, rubbing her belly adoringly.

Y/n had found out she was pregnant around 6 months ago, after having not been too careful the few months before it. They had decided they didn't want to try, per se, but leave it up to chance, wanting a baby, but not really thinking about the 'when' too hard. Now that they had found themselves in this position, they had grown to love it.

"Well," he said, now talking towards her belly, "better get your mummy out of here before she buys the whole damn shop."

"Hey!" She swatted at his hands, chuckling lightly, "I'm not only eating for two, I have no problem using my extra body weight to my advantage!"

He raised his hands in mock defence, a large smile adorning his face, before quickly dropping his surrender. His eyes point towards the end of the isle where a young woman stands, eyes slightly wide, staring unabashedly at the two of them.

Harry doesn't like to address a potential fan in these situations in case they don't actually know him and it creates an awkward moment (especially after what happened in Monaco), however, he can clearly see this girl struggling to find words as her mouth moves agape, nothing but breaths coming out.

"Are you alright there lovely?" Y/n said, taking the embarrassing memory away from Harry. Her eyes flick to you, and then your belly, then back to Harry. She seems to gain sense, as she closes her mouth and nods quickly, before her eyes land back on y/n's hands placed on her swollen abdomen.

"Yeah, sorry, I just, are you Harry styles?" "Yeah, that's me. How are you doing?" He asks. Y/n always admired Harry for his care and adoration of his fans, his kind gentle nature that brought them together.

"Oh my god, wow, are you serious? Like what? Do, no, how, when..." she rambled for a few seconds. Harry chuckled lightly before looking back to y/n with a cheeky smile. When she finally managed to form a coherent sentence, Harry puts his attention back on her.

"Sorry," she laughs, "just a bit starstruck is all." "Don't worry," y/n pipes in, "plenty of people are the same. What's your name, lovely?" As soon as y/n started speak, the girls eyes snapped back to her. With her eyes focused on her belly, she answered,

"Layla, Layla Stevens. Sorry, I don't know why I told you my last name, it's not like you care or even know me," she started rambling again. "Well, Layla Stevens, it's a pleasure to meet you. What's brought you to Sainsbury's at this time?"

Harry lovingly looked over at y/n, adoring how she easily made conversation with the stranger.

"This one here's got the salt cravings again," Harry intervenes chuckling, dismissing the fact the real reason to avoid the shops during the day was for fans, as a couple here or there don't bother him, but a swarm does.

Layla laughs, looking a little less surprised now that the elephant in the room has been addressed: the pregnancy.

"Well, um, just grabbing a late night cheerios snack," she says, holding up her basket. "I hope you don't mind me asking, it's just, well, I didn't know you were pregnant? Congratulations I assume? I didn't know you guys were expecting?"

Harry moves closer to y/n, wrapping an arm round her waist, "yeah, we've been trying to keep it a secret for as long as possible, but it's bound to get out soon. But we'd really appreciate it if you would keep this under wraps, you know?"

She nods viscously, Harry almost expects her to cross her heart and hope to die while she's at it.

"Of course, yeah, I totally understand - your secret is safe with me!"

"We don't know the gender, we want to keep it a surprise," y/n states, although it's not quite the truth, they would both like to have some control over any aspect of the pregnancy becoming public.

Layla nods in understanding. It goes quiet for a moment, as the rush settles.

"Would you like a photo?" Y/n asks.

"If that's alright? Sorry, I didn't want to ask," she laughs nervously. She starts to get her phone out and raise it for a selfie, before looking at y/n expectantly.

"Would it be alright if I got one with both of you? I'm a big fan of you too, y/n!"

It's not the first time y/n had been asked for a photo, but it still shocked her none the less. "Oh yeah, of course! Do you mind if we try to hide the bump though? Just don't want it getting out just yet," y/n replies.

"Totally get you, of course."

Y/n slightly waddles towards the two, after putting the crackers in the trolley. Luckily, she was wearing one of the bunny LOT T-shirts, so none of the fans could find the outfit and link it back to a maternity section at H&M or primark.

Harry smiles with a peace sign, y/n pokes her tongue out, and Layla simply grins. After snapping a few photos (without a belly in sight) Layla put her phone back in her bag and picked up her basket.

"Thank you so much guys, it was lovely meeting you! And good luck on the rest of your pregnancy!"

"Thank you! And maybe we will see you again, Layla Stevens, looking for more midnight snacks," Harry replies with a smile. The couple watch Layla walk off from them, before they turn to each other.

"She was lovely!" Y/n says. She was genuinely surprised at how nice fans could be sometimes after having to deal with all the hate online. "Wasn't she?" He replies, "now, black pepper or salt and vinegar?"

She scrunches her face in disgust at the latter. He dramatically sighs, putting them back on the shelf before tossing the black pepper crisps into the trolley and taking it from her.

He hums a little tune, looking left, then right, left, then right, at all the crisps and crackers to choose from. Y/n looks at him in adoration, liking how life is going to be. Rubbing her belly she calls out to him.

"Hazza?"

"Yeah?"

"I love you."

He smiles at her, real and big.

"I love you too."

[lunarheslwt]

Hearing and seeing Harry perform esny after YEARS feels like a spiritual experience as well as a punch to the gut at once ....he is GOD to me rn I needed this so bad

[watermelonsugarsigh]

reblog and put in the tags what your harry styles holy trinity is (fave song from HS1, 2, and 3)

[itsnotreal]

ever since new york anon here

i looked for the analysis on here (and did a google search too cause tumblr search isnt reliable)

but all the ones i read are saying its about harry hearing some bad news (i was confused why everyone was saying the same thing) and with another search i found that harry has said that himself on seme private show and that why..heres the link:

https://harrystyles.fandom.com/wiki/Ever_Since_New_York_(song)

and ill copy paste the exact part

"In a private show, he detailed that he wrote the song about bad news he got about a family member when he was in a hotel in Brooklyn, New York. It’s heavily believed to be about Harry’s late stepfather Robin Twist, and the series of agonizing events following his cancer diagnosis."

im sure there are posts discussing about the gif somewhere here but i dont know how to search for it. hopefully it'll come accross my dash one day😂😅

byee for now, i'll come back if i find it later

YES!! that's what it was! People think he found out the bad news and then was still forced to go and interview afterwards. I was trying to find that exact interview (the one from the louis post) but I couldn't find it... i know it was the Today Show in 2012... but i can't find that exact one ?
