Always and Almost Forever. {Harry Styles}

Chapter Ten

“Good morning” Mattie greeted, with a hint of sarcasm in her voice as I walked outside of my room. I looked up and saw her seated in front of the television screen, where a rerun of Awkward was on.

“Morning,” I mumbled as I plopped down next to her. “What time is it?”

“I’m guessing two in the afternoon” Mattie answered as she kept her attention to the show. “Had fun last night?” I heard her smirk.

The events of last night flashed through my mind and the last thing I could remember was leading Harry to the door, saying goodbye and going to sleep at about four. After having the dinner that Harry cooked, we had a Disney movies marathon, starting with Nemo. I don’t remember the next movie because I fell asleep half way Nemo and when I woke up, Harry already was changing the movie to Mulan which he insisted was the third one already.

I tried to stay awake, but with Harry’s constant playing with my hair as we both laid down the couch, staying awake was next to impossible. After our fifth movie, which was Cinderella, we both decided to call it a night and Harry decided to go home. Mattie still wasn’t home so I figured she spent the night in her boyfriend, Chace’s flat.

“Where were you last night?” I asked as I rubbed my eyes.

“Chace brought me to meet his parents” She answered with a smile “They’re lovely. How was your night?”

“Harry came over.” I mumbled and saw Mattie nod, confirming that she indeed knew. “It was fun.”

Mattie looked over at me and gave me a knowing smile before turning back to the television screen.

I was having breakfast- or lunch-, which composed mainly of some Fish and Chips and mushy peas which Mattie brought home. Mattie already went to work so I was now alone, having the time of my life, eating while dancing to the tune of Love on Top by Beyoncé which was blasting from my phone.

“Cuz you're the one that I love. Baby, you're the one that I need. You're the only thing I see. Baby baby it's you-“ I sang on top of my lungs but was quickly cut short when I heard the doorbell ring. I pouted and grabbed a chip before dancing my way to the door. I opened it and a girl, who looked  around my age, with black hair and glasses, smiled at me as I looked at her, obviously confused.

“Uh, hi?” I greeted as I looked down at my feet, this girl  was obviously beautiful and looking at her made me felt ugly.

I saw her extend her hand at me, her dark brown eyes, piercing through mine as she gave me a small smile, a dimple forcing its way to her cheek. “Hi, you must be Joanna”

I debated with myself whether to shake her hand or not. I mean, yes she was beautiful, but what if she was a serial killer in disguise who was sent by Satan to steal my Fish and Chips?? I looked at her bracelet-covered hand before slightly shaking it, my hand trembling along the process.

“I’m Isabel.” Her voice was so sweet. She was indeed very good at acting like some sweet, innocent girl. Her name sounded familiar, maybe she was one of the people from the wanted list on the news this morning, I’m not sure.

“Can I come in?” She asked politely as she looked around, maybe she was waiting for her back-up people who would soon kidnap me and my Fish and Chips. Oh no.

“Uh-“ I started to say but was, again, cut off by a familiar voice from the other end of the hallway.

“Those fans really knew how to mob. Are they- oh, hey, Jo” Niall’s mop of blonde hair appeared as he stood next to the criminal girl in front of me. Oh no, what if this girl kidnaps Niall too? I must save the day.
