Harmony (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 12

*SCARLETTS POV*

It has been a week since the release party and the announcing of me and Harry. Paparazzi were all over my apartment. Everytime I walk outside they ask me questions like "Is this all a publicity stunt?" or "Does Taylor know about this?" but I do as Harry told me and ignore them and not say anything.

Harry leaves to start his tour in a week and I don't know where we are going to stand when he does leave. I've never been in a relationship where we went weeks, let alone months, without eachother.

I was on my way over to Harry's, the paparazzi following my every move. They see me go to Harry's, they see me leave Harry's. They see Harry come to my apartment, they see Harry leave my apartment. They don't leave us alone.

I knock on Harry's door and he let's me in. He checks the hallway to make sure none of the press had followed me up.

"Hi" I smile, pecking his lips.

"Hi gorgeous" he smiles, kissing me back.

I smile, "How much longer until the press leave us alone?" I ask in a whiney tone.

"Hopefully soon." he replies.

I smile, "Can we go eat pleaassee?" I ask.

He nods telling me we can and hands me some black ray bands. We had gotten use to this routine of putting hoodie sweatshirts on and dark sunglasses to hide from the press. I slip mine on and throw my hood over my head and we sneak out of the building through the back way. 

We see no paparazzi anywhere and we think we had gotten out safely up until we see a group of men with cameras who are looking right in our direction. We slowly turn around trying not to make anything noticeable, but we fail and the men with cameras come running after us. We stop in our tracks figuring that we could answers a few questions to get them off our backs. 

"Harry is it true the whole Haylor thing was a publicity stunt?" one asks Harry. 

He doesn't hesitate to answer, "Yes."

"What do you expect of the duet you two sang together?" another asks.

"We hope for the best and that our fans like it." Harry answers again and personally I didn't mind him answering all the questions because I was nervous I would answer something wrong and it would blow up in my face.

"Scarlett, rumor has it your parents left you and your sister abandoned. Care to explain?" one asks me. I lift my head to stare at him but don't say anything. "Is it true they were abusive and abandoned you and your sister?" he asks again. I clench my fists and before I can even think about it, I raise my arm and swing it in the direction of his face leaving a loud smack noise. The cameras start flashing and Harry grabs me and carries me out of the crowd of people.

"MY PARENTS WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO ME YOU ASSHOLE!" I scream at the reported that asked me that disgusting question as Harry carries me off back to his hotel. 

Once we make it back to the hotel, Harry sets me down in the lobby and I break down. I bury my head into his chest and let the tears stream down my face.
