I woke up at 9:00am to my alarm clock blaring. I rolled over and slammed my hand down on it. Hallelujah it finally shut up. I climbed out of bed before walking into the bathroom. I turned the dial for the shower and waited for the water to turn boiling hot, just the way I like it. I stripped all of my clothes off before jumping inside. The warm water covered my body. I quickly grabbed my apple shampoo and conditioner before scrubbing my hair and rinsing it out. After I had washed my body and stayed in the shower for another 10 minutes I got out wrapping a towel around myself.

I grabbed my hair dryer, plugged it in and began drying my hair. I decided to leave it in its natural waves today. Once I was happy with my hair I got changed into the outfit that Eleanor had helped me pick out in Hollister yesterday. I applied some mascara and a little bit of lipgloss before looking myself over in the mirror. I smiled before checking the time on my phone. Crap!it was 10:48am. I was supposed to be meeting Harry in 12 minutes. I grabbed my phone off charge and my keys before running out the door to my car.

I drove quickly to Starbucks only arriving 10 minutes late. I walked in and spotted Harry, he waved and I went a took a seat opposite of him at the table he was seated at.

"Sorry I'm late, I didn't realise what time it was as i was getting ready" I spoke quickly.

He lightly laughed

"It's fine and by the way being late totally was worth it" he smiled a cheeky grin

I blushed a light pink colour before smiling back at him.

"I ordered you a mango and passion fruit juice"

"That's my favourite, how did you know" I asked puzzled

"One of the boys girlfriends always orders it every time we come, so it must be good" he said as he slightly shrugged his shoulders.

We spoke for a little while longer, getting to know each other. I found out his middle name is Edward, he loves the colour orange, he absolutely loves cats, his birthday is the 1st February, he loves cake, his family are his world, he'd rather die than have his curls chopped off, he loves performing and some other stuff.

"Any boyfriend?" He casually asked me as I was sipping my 3rd fruit juice.

"No, I've been working on my music lately and haven't really had time for relationships. Working on this album has taken up most my time, so I really hope people like it. I'm so nervous for when it comes out" I replied truthfully

"You shouldn't be, I was like that at first - scared out of my mind but when you see how much the fans love it, all your worries just vanish and you'll feel really proud. Plus everybody has liked the songs you've released so far so it's sure to be a hit. Stop worrying about it and definitely don't think like it's the make or break of your career. I did that and nearly had a breakdown the day it came out, according to the lads it was very funny." He started smiling towards the end of his sentence.

I smiled along with him and we talked for about another hour or so telling me funny stories about the boys. We ordered another set of drinks to go and went for a walk around the nearest park. It was starting to get a bit dark so we decided to head home. He started to walk back towards his car. Just before he reached his hand on the car door handle I found my self calling his name.

"Yeah?" He questioned me as he turned around

"You wanna come back to my place and watch some movies?" I didn't even realise what I was saying until it was too late.

He smiled before replying with a simple - 'sure.'

We decided to take my car to my apartment and he'd pick his up later. We arrived at my apartment and I told him to pick a movie whilst I went and made popcorn. After the popcorn was ready I walked back in with it in a huge bowl. I walked in to see Harry standing there looking at a picture which he held in his hands. He put the picture down on the table and sat down on the couch.

I walked over to the couch and sat down next to him, shoulder to shoulder with the bowl of popcorn in my lap. I grabbed my turquoise blanket and threw it over us both. He had picked out the movie The Roommate which starred Minka Kelly - one of my favourite actresses.

"Who were those people in the picture?" He asked me softly when he noticed me yawn a put my head on his shoulder.

I immediately tensed up when I saw which photograph he was talking about.

"Nobody, they don't matter to me." I replied

"You don't have to tell me, if you don't want to Brooke." Him being the ever sweet guy said. I felt bad keeping it from him but I guess he would find out eventually. Should I tell him? Well here goes nothing....

"They're my real parents." I whispered

He looked slightly confused when I said real.

" I got taken away from them when I was 4, my mum was a drug addict and my father was an alcoholic. I got taken Into foster care and put in the system. I don't know what happened to them, I was only left with that picture, a necklace and a blanket. I never really knew them." I was now crying quietly.

"It's okay Brooke, you don't have to say anything you don't want to." He softly whispered in my ear. I was crying into his chest whilst he held me. I started to feel tired after a little bit and the last thing I remembered was Harry softly singing Ed Sheeran's The A Team as I drifted to sleep.

Hi guys,

I know the ending of this chapter is a little bit depressing but I promise that in the future this story is gonna be based on Brooke's happy times with the boys and Harry :) I'm gonna try not to make it a depressing storyline but I needed to put in something that could be used in the future. I might mention her times in care in the future but I'm not sure yet. Thoughts?
