It's you, it's you, it's all for you.

Everything I do.

I tell you all the time.

Heaven is a place on earth with you.

Tell me all the things you wanna do.

Eden's POV:

Today has been one of the worst days I've had in awhile, I woke up to my brother, Grayson, sitting outside my bedroom door and asking for me to help him move to his room. He always comes home drunk from his dumbass highschool parties, begging me to help him when he ends up outside of my door.

He is a 17 year old boy and can't get a grip on life, he drinks his grief away and goes out with various women every other night.

I wish I could help, ever since our parents left he's been so far gone that offering therapy to him is like holding a knife to his throat.

He doesn't listen to my constant talking about River and Beth, he doesn't want any help because he feels that dealing with things on his own is the best way to cope.

I've been going to therapy for a little over 2 years now for many reasons and though it helps tremendously, I have a very long way to go.

Throughout the years I've been living with Gray we have realized how drastically different we are. It is hard to practically raise your brother when you were raised in such a shitty way. In hindsight, you start out with doing the complete opposite of how you were raised until you see how limited choices are for you.

I really wish I would've done things different for him, he doesn't deserve the low life he has right now.

After I finally got Gray to his room after a lot of protesting on his part and struggling on my side because the giant is six feet tall and I'm a staggering 5'2. He finally crashed after I didn't even want to know how long he went without sleep.

So, that brings me to right now. I'm currently sitting in the therapists parking lot and there's a new vehicle. It's a Black Land Rover Range Rover.

I finally muster up enough energy to get out of my car and walk up to the therapists building like usual. When I walk in there though there was a new patient there. 

I have to stop myself when I realize I've been staring at him for far too long, trying to see him as he is sat staring at his notebook. I make my way to the front desk, letting the door slam behind me.

"Name?" The lady at the front asks me as I'm still stuck on the man in the lobby behind me.

"Eden Anderson." I say offering a smile and nodding at her as I make my way to my normal seat.

I sit down and pull out my phone to see 2 missed calls from Grayson, the fuck has he gotten into.

Almost as soon as I put my phone away I hear the voice of what sounded like Beth saying, "Harry Styles?" and as if on cue I look up at the man I saw when I walked in standing up and walking down the hallway towards the offices.

I locked eyes with the beautiful man. And oh my god. His eyes.

Green.

After he walked back to Beth's office I sat there for about five minutes, contemplating all of my life decisions that got me to that point, until River, my therapist, called me back to her office.
