A/N: Right Now just came on shuffle and I want to cry a bit because Loula : (

LOLA POV

“Three days. It’s been three days and nothing!” I storm into the living room, my phone clenched in my hand as I slump down onto the couch and interrupting Gab’s Keeping Up with the Kardashians marathon.

“Well give the boy some time, he’s probably still thinking.” She shrugs.

“Well can’t I be with him while he’s thinking?” I whine, reluctantly opening twitter.

“Aw babe that’s so cute.” She says with a mocking tone. Bitch.

“Fuck off.” I scold, searching for my favourite/ the one I’ve deemed most reliable update account.

@1Dnews: the boys are still on break. Harry, Niall and Liam are in London. Louis and Zayn are MIA as per usual.

@1Dnews: Harry unfollowed Lola on twitter.

Wait, what?!

I quickly search for Harry and my stomach turns when I see it no longer says “Follows you” next to his name. Oh god this is worse than I thought. Fuck.

“He unfollowed me!” I basically screech. 

“Who?” Gab asks absentmindedly, Kardashians clearly have her attention captured.

“Obama. Who do you think?”

“Oh. Harry.”

“Yes, Harry that dickhead. That’s soo low!”

@CharJones: RT “@1Dnews: Harry unfollowed Lola on twitter.” How dare he! @Harry_Styles fix this

Best thing about one direction fans is they’ll think whatever they want no matter what you do so I can be blatantly honest and half of them will think I’m joking anyway.

“This is bad. It’s time for drastic measures.” I stand up, a plan beginning to form in my mind.
“And what does that mean?” Gab asks, her tone cautious.

“It means he might be able to ignore my words but there’s something he can’t ignore.” I smirk, wandering into my room. This has to work.

Half an hour and a phone call to Gemma later and I was on my way to Harry’s. I look across at the passenger seat when I pull up, grabbing the empty wine bottle that I had managed to shove an envelope into- yet another letter I’d poured my heart into but this one had a different intention. This one he wasn’t going to read just yet.

Coincidentally, Gemma had been out for lunch with Harry at the time of my call and excused herself from the table long enough to help me devise a plan. Gemma’s informative text messages let me know I had the house to myself for another thirty minutes.

With the bottle tucked under my arm, I get out of my car and nerves start to hinder my movements as I walk up to the security gate, my knees slightly weak, punching in the code like always.  
The insulting tone of rejection from the stupid system sends my heart crashing into the depths of my stomach. He changed the code from my birthday.

Fuck. This is not a good sign.

Harry why do you have to make my life so difficult?

Alright, if it’s not my birthday it must be someone else’s, right?
