I Am Prostitute (Narry Stripper AU)

Chapter 5: Better Than That

***Harry’s POV***

I sat on my couch angrily staring at the wall, thinking about what Niall had said. You’re better than this Harry. Better than what? So what if I had a crappy lifestyle, it’s none of his concern. It’s not that I wanted to live like this, I had to. It’s all I know. Why do I care what some kid thought about me? I hardly even know him, and he definitely doesn’t know me. I looked up at the clock and it read 10 o’clock. I sighed at got up to get my guitar, and go out to busk again. Maybe I can get enough money for a coffee, a muffin too if I’m lucky. Also, I needed a way to vent my feelings, and singing could definitely help me. I grabbed my guitar and walked out the door, trying to think of a song.

As I got to my spot in the mall, I had thought of a good song. It expresses the mixed emotions that I’m feeling right now. It’s a fair walk from my place to here, so I had time to think about Niall and his advice, and to calm down! He’s probably right, I am better off not working as a prostitute, and get a job at a bakery or something, but it’s not that easy. Once you’re in this business it’s hard to get out. Especially if you’re sort after like I am. Not being cocky, but the club wouldn’t make have the amount it does if I left. I set myself up with my guitar case open on the concrete in front of me, and my guitar on my lap, and I started to play.

“Today is gonna be the day

That they're gonna throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do, about you now”

I know how I feel about Niall, even if I’ve know him for less than 24 hours.

“Back beat, the word was on the street

That the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all before

But you never really had a doubt

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I

Would like to say to you but I don't know how”

I will find a way to get out. I don’t know how, but I will try everything.

“Because maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me

And after all, you're my wonderwall”

Niall will save me from this life I’m living. I know he will.

“Today was gonna be the day

But they'll never throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you're not to do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do, about you now.”

I looked up into the crowd and stopped playing abruptly. I swear I just saw blonde hair up in a quiff and Supra’s. I didn’t care how stupid I looked to the people watching, but I put my guitar down, and chased after him. I had to catch him. If he was watching me play, then he’ll definitely know that the song was about him. “NIALL!” I called. I looked left and right in search for him. “NIALL!” Damn he could walk fast, or maybe my mind was playing tricks on me. But wait! I spotted the blonde hair again and skidded to a halt.  I turned towards him and sprinted as fast as my long legs would carry me. “NIALL!” I screamed out. He didn’t turn around. Maybe he’s mad at me? I ran up beside him and grabbed his shoulders. “Niall! I’ve been calling you…” He turned around. It wasn’t him.
