Dream Catcher » Harry Styles (ON HOLD)

II - Harry

Chapter Two - Harry

When the girl finished her song, I instantly started clapping. It had been beautiful, and her voice was like an angel.

She looked up at me and I smiled. The boys, I knew, were looking at me, but I didn't care. I took my hood off and could feel their shock and alarm radiating off of them. I shot them a warning glance and looked back at her. She had looked away, but when she looked back, she was trapped in my gaze.

She was beautiful, and so was her voice. I had to get to know her. I at least wanted to know her name. Maybe, if I was lucky, I could get her number before we left and Niall bought his guitar.

Working up the nerve, I walked up to her. She looked up at me and shock registered on her face. Crap, I hope she doesn't know who I am. That would totally ruin it. I smiled and she stood up, setting the guitar down.

"That was amazing." I smiled cheekily, knowing my dimples would pop out. She smiled a little before looking down, then back up. It was quiet for a few moments, before she responded.

"Thank you." She simply said. My face fell, and I didn't try to hide it. She spoke coldly, with no real gratitude or emotion. The only thingy I could see, was that her walls were up, guarding her and protecting her. I knew I could break them down, if I tried.

"What's your name, love?" I asked, earning a shocked look from her. Had she thought I was just going to compliment her and leave? Not a chance.

"C-Carly," She stuttered, clearly not expecting my question. "And you?"

"Harry. Harry Styles." Recognition crossed her face as she realized who I was. Good thing I got my hair cut, or she would have noticed right away.

"From that band?" She asked. I could tell her voice was hinted with something, disgust? No, it couldn't be!

"Yeah. Problem?" I chuckled as her face became mortified, and disgust registered in her eyes. She backed up and grabbed the guitar, running into the storage room in back. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair.

Had she really been that afraid of me?

I grabbed yet another beer off the table, twisting off the cap and chugging it down. My head was spinning, but I just kept drinking. Why had she been so cold towards me, and why was I making sure a big deal about it? I don't even know her!

"Harry? Lad, lay off the beer. You're going to get sick!" Louis yelled, coming into the living room of the flat we shared. He came up and grabbed the beer bottle out of my hand. I glared at him and reached for it, feeling a hard object against my cheek and a loud noise sound throughout the room.

"D-did you just slap me?" I stuttered, holding my cheek, feeling tears forming in my eyes. My best friend slapped me.

"I'm sorry, Harry, but you need to get out and over whatever happened. What even happened back there?" He set down the bottle, sitting next to me and putting an arm around my shoulders, pulling me closer.

"I asked who she was, then she asked who I was, then she got a disgusted look in her eyes and ran away." I mumbled, earning a shocked glance from the brunette.

He put on a thinking face, scratching his chin, before whispering one word, and one word only, "odd."

"Yeah, I know it is, Boo Bear." I mocked, using his nickname. He glared at me like a five year old. A moment later, he stomped off, coming back with a cup of water. He walked up to me, and before I could react-

He dumped it on my head and ran off.

"Louis William Tomlinson, get your big arse back here right now!" I shouted, and was rewarded with the response of, " I know it's big, and you like it!" Which set me off. I sprinted into the kitchen, seeing he's not there. I then ran up the steps of our two-story flat and burst into his room. I saw him in the corner, a scared expression on his face. I chuckled devilishly, moving closer to him.

"You know what? Now, you owe me." I smirked, cornering him. He shook violently, before collecting himself and daring to ask, "What do you want?". I laughed evilly, making his eyes widen.

"You, Mr.Tomlinson, are going to help me find Carly."

Sorry it's so short! I didn't have much time to write! Also, bloody sorry it's late! I fell asleep last night before I had a chance to post.

Next chapter Monday!

P.S. I need a ship name for Carly and Harry! Carry? Harly? I'm not sure.
