Unstoppable// Harry Styles au

Chapter 24

Harry's P.O.V.

I kept punching the bag harder. When Addie brought up my family, it brought horrible memories to my mind and I couldn't handle it so I came here. Out of all the places, I showed up to the gym where I was doing illegal stuff. I really want to get out of the deal but I couldn't. It would bring trouble to not only me but the people around me. I couldn't do that to Addie or my mum. Especially Addie. She had such a shitty life so far, I couldn't hurt her. If word got out that I used her to get her to quit so I could steal her spot and make myself an even bigger fighter then she would be hurt. At first I wanted to hurt her but now I completely regret the whole deal I set up with Steve. I love her and right now, nothing would stop me from loving her. Not Steve, not anyone.

I was also angry because of what Alex did to her. He made her happy and made her feel loved then ruined her. He raped her and he let his friends do it while he watched and that wasn't okay with me. If I ever met that heartless bastard, he was sure to pay for hurting Addie. It took me two months to get her just to really talk to me. She keeps ignoring me because she doesn't really know how a true relationship is suppose to look like. That little fucker is gonna get his face beat in.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and relaxed, turning to see Zayn. I clenched my jaw at the sight of him. I hated him too. "What," I spit.

"Steve wants to see you."

"About what?"

"About Addie." Something that was scaring me was his tone and how he didn't smirk when he said her name. This means bad news.

"What do you mean Addie?"

"I mean, you didn't break up with her so he's gonna come after her."

"Why? Liam has a girlfriend so why do I have to break up with Addie?"

He sighed. "He hates Addie and wants her completely gone. Even if you weren't dating her, he would still get her. He wanted her gone from the start but was making big money off of her so he let her be. But now that she has quit, he thinks she is good for nothing."

I closed my eyes and ran a hand through my hair. "Fuck," I yelled, punching my bag.

"I'm really sorry man," he said with a little sorrow in his eyes.

"Why are you telling me this? What, do you feel bad now?"

"I may have used her and shit but she was still a fun person and it would be sad to see her be killed by her own step father. She doesn't deserve to be hurt like that."

"Nice to see you have a little heart in you, Malik."

"Sometimes," he smirked. "Now go talk to Steve and if he does anything, just know that I am on your side."

"Thanks, I guess." He was acting really weird. "Why are you helping me?"

"It's uh," he scratched the back of his neck. "It's happened to me before. So I don't want it to happen to you too. You're a good man Styles."

"Thanks," I nodded, making my way to Steve's office.

I opened the door, not bothering to knock and saw Steve typing away on his computer. He looked up as soon as I slammed the door.

"Oh Harry," he smiled. "Nice to see you."

"Cut with the shit Steve. Just tell me what the fuck you want."

He lost his smile and gave me a death glare. "Watch your tone."

"I can say whatever I want to if it has to do with my girlfriend."
