Chapter 55

As she walked away, Harry walked quickly to the passenger side of the car and slammed the door shut. He was mad.

Slowly, I made my way to the drivers side, and slid into the seat. I stuck started the car and drove off, leaving the gas station behind.

Harry didn't speak for a couple of moments. But then, he did.

"You're keeping something from me." He said, quietly, looking forward.

I didn't say anything. I let him continue.

"I can't keep doing this, Anne. The stuff you're hiding behind my back, all these secrets, I can't do it."

He spoke again. "Either you tell me the fucking truth or I'm walking out."

That's when turned my head to look at him.

Green eyes were wide, eyebrows pushed up, not furrowed, and lips pursued.

"Harry, I-I'm not hiding anything from you."

"Really? Because your sister seemed fucking confused after I said something about her and your parents job. Anne, what the hell is going on?"

I could feel the hot tears welling up in my eyes. My lip started to tremble.

He looked forward against and ran his hands through his hair roughly.

"Tell me the fucking truth, Anne!" He yelled, now looking at me.

Tears were threatening to pour into my cheeks. I pulled the car over and got out as quick as I could.

I started walking to God knows where, leaving Harry behind. I ran my hands through my hair and started letting the tears fall.

I heard Harry walking behind me. Very, very fast.

"Anne, don't walk away from-"

"My parents are fucking dead!" I screamed at him, looking him the eyes.

"Almost a year ago, they went out for a date night. It was snowing and then I got a call that they had been in a fucking car crash. I was so fucking stupid to let them go out in that damn snow. I-" I rambled on until Harry stopped me.

He came over and wrapped his arms around me. One arm around my head, running his fingers through my hair and the other rubbing my back. He laid his head on top of mine.

I didn't do anything. I just cried into his chest. I wrapped my arms around his waist, and held on to him. Just held on to him and cried.

I held onto him for as long as I could, just crying until I ran out of tears.

There, in the middle of nowhere, I stood and cried in the arms of Harry Styles, telling him the truth. And I wasn't okay.
