Promise Me This [h.s]

08.

Harry Styles

I woke up to the sound of my alarm, it being 9am at the moment. The wedding is officially in 24 hours and I couldn't be more dreadful about it. I don't feel like doing anything today so I decided to chill out in my apartment. I go to my bathroom so I can take a long relaxing shower and brush my teeth. Then I walk down my brown stairs and make my way over to the kitchen. Morning coffee is a must for me, I can't go a day without it. As I'm about to start making my coffee, I hear a loud bang on my front door. As I started to near my door, I heard loud music blaring from the outside. Who could possibly be here at 10 in the morning?!

I walk over and open it, Niall, Zayn, Louis, and Liam coming in energetically, jamming out to the music while jumping up and down and going crazy.

"What the hell are you guys doing?!" I yell out due to the blaring music.

"We threw you a bachelor party, duh." Niall responds like I was supposed to know.

"Oh right! How can I forget? I forgot that you told me about this never." I begin to respond in a higher pitched tone but return to my normal voice at the end.

When our band, One Direction, came to an end about a year ago, the boys and I were really upset about it; but thankfully, we all remained super close with one another and continued to hang out quite often.

The boys laugh, Zayn grabbing the bottles of booze Niall probably brought over.

Liam chuckles, "looks like we are about to get wasted at-" he pauses so he can check the watch on his wrist, "10:15 in the morning!"

"No, we are not. You guys can if you want but I don't want to." I make clear that I'm not partaking in the drinking.

"It's your bachelor party H, you have to!" Louis chimes in.

"Oh, well in that case, no." I respond

"You're no fun." Louis pouts.

"Alright, if Harry doesn't want to drink, let's not force his hand. It's his bachelor party after all." Zayn tries to defend me.

"Thank you." I say.

"Oh Harry, I forgot to mention, but Shanti asked me if we can perform at the afterparty." Niall tells me.

"Uh- who?" I ask confused, never having heard that name before my whole life.

"Wait, are you for real?" Niall chuckles, now also being confused. "Did Amaya never mention her to you before?"

Oh shit. The boys don't know that Amaya and I aren't really together. Honestly, I don't want them to know because I know they will just judge me for it.

"She must've forgot." I lie. "Who is she again?"

"Shanti is Amaya's cousin, and I guess you can say my girlfriend." Niall proudly states.

"You're dating Amaya's cousin?!" I ask in total shock.

"Yeah man. She is the best, so sweet and honest with me. Technically, she's married, but I'm glad she had the decency to explain it all to me earlier on." Niall explains.

"Huh, well you learn something new everyday, right?"

Niall laughs, "yeah, I guess so."

Niall was about to tell me something else but my phone started to ring. It was Amaya's father, Mr. Richard Sharma.

Now what does he want.

"Hello." I say.

"Good morning, son." Amaya's father greets me. "You probably heard from Amaya already, but her sister, Divya, is coming home from Uni today so I wanted to invite you over for dinner."
