Harry's POV

I hit the decline button again when I see Niall's name flash across the screen. I'm pretty sure that was the only way the boys knew I was alive. I hadn't left the house more than twice in the past two weeks. Taylor and I had a huge blow out fight when she dropped the pregnancy bomb on me. I was depressed for the fact that I would never see her or our kid again unless it was on the television or in the tabloids.

"Trust me? After all we've been through. I know I've messed up-" I begin but she cuts me off.

"You've literally said that too many times to count Harry. I can't put myself through anymore," She sobs.

"I know a kid will straighten me out for sure," I promise her.

"Sure. Like some space or like a vacation. I've heard this in the last nine years way to much. From you and Jake. Everyone talks about change but it doesn't happen," She mentions.

"So what you expect me to let you take care of the baby on your own?' I ask her.

"No I never said that..I will have help from my mom and my dad-" She begins but I stand up and hit my fist against the wall, startling her.

"You are not going to keep me from being apart of my kid's life," I snap. I can literally feel the heat flowing through my body.

"Harry I need you to calm down," She requests.

"How could you ever think I would let you do this alone?' I ask trying to hold back all of my tears.

"I know..But I need you to see how much you've hurt me and this may be the only way. Maybe we shouldn't be around eachother for a while," She suggests.

"How long is awhile?' I ask her, trying to hold back from yelling.

"I don't know yet," She says almost quite enough to where I couldn't hear her.

"Just leave then," I groan but I knew it was a mistake.

I only hear the click of her heels on the hardwood floor by the door and then the next thing I knew she was gone.

After that all I could do is change into my sweats and lay in bed. I finally cried. I finally let my eyes become blooshot from tears and my pillow drenched in sweat. I never thought it was this close to the end. I was at a loss and had no clue what would happen from here.

I hear the annoying buzzing of my phone again. It was Liam for the fifteenth time today. God damn did they not know how to leave a guy alone. I hit decline and roll back over. I sink my face into the pillow and groan. I had no clue when I would get out of bed again and I was hoping to never plan to. But I needed to go to the store and eventually get back to work.

The boys were important to me as well as the fans. I would need to take my depression with me on the road if I had too. But I atleast had another week before Mr. Cowell and Cory came barging into my house and dragging me out of these sheets.

Another hour has passed and I can't seem to remove my face from the place it's in the pillow. My mind was fuzzy with only images of Taylor. Her laugh, her smile, and her anger. All of it was in a random mess of memories and worries.

"This is my daughter Taylor," Andrea introduces her to me.

I swore I have seen her before. Wait she was the beautfiul young lady at the cafe with the amazing voice. But she couldn't have recognized me as anon. I scan her body to make sure and sure enough it was her. Here in the flesh.

"C-Charmed," I choke out after I had realized that I had been staring.

"They're going to be living here for a while. Harry's even got the same schedule as you. Isn't that lovely/" Andrea gushes.

"That's great ma," Taylor did not look amused one bit.

"I hope you don't mind if you show him around tomorrow," My mom hints.

"Sure..If that's ok with him.." Taylor had hesistated. I wonder if she thought I was some kind of freak. Someone who she saw a threat with.

They then begin to talk about some other random things like where we would be staying. I wait patiently until both of our mothers had suggested we get to talking with eachother. I follow Taylor into the unfamiliar family room.

"So.." She says.

"So.." I reply and then my fingers intertwine together.

She then began to ask annoying questions about my family. I try to surpress all that I said to her because it really wasn't a good first impression, especially to someone as closed off as her. She was goddamn beautiful the moment I first set eyes on her though. Even when I previously saw her and listened to her at the lounge. I was trying so hard not to let my aggressive side show on our official meeting but that didn't happen.

I even immediately left her there. Alone. But I think that's what drew us to eachother. We were the same. Both her and I were all to much the same. We fit together like magnents and I was sure that wasn't a good thing. But boy did I love her.

I still love her. That broken girl and now the strong fire like women. The one who lit up her p[ast like smoke and then was trying to bury the ashes. But I was getting in the way. Maybe she didn't need me. Maybe I was part of the past she just needed to let go. But it wouldn't be that easy because I sure as hell wasn't budging. I would be here forever and I wasn't going to let her fall anymore. I should be the one pickling her up. But hell it wasn't easy.

I wake up to the sound of pounding on the door. The last time that had happened I was caught in a wildfire of news from Taylor. I hope to god it wasn't Niall or any of the other boys. I still didn't need their judgement, or maybe I couldn't handle it.

I pull open the door to reveal Gemma.

"What are you doing here?" I ask her.

"Mom sent me as reinforcements. You really didn't think you could get away with forever did you?' She asks.

"Please Gems. Just tell everyone that I am okay and go away," I beg.

"Nope," She was firm.

She caught me off guard and pushes past me. She sits on my couch with her arms crossed. I guess Gemma was here to stay.

"Well spill. What is your problem?' She asks.

"Long story," I sigh.

"Can't be that long. I've got time. GO," She demands.

You NEVER say no to Gemma Styles. That was a fact.
