I'll Be The Anchor - Michael Clifford

I'll Be The Anchor

Somehow my job had become my life. In many more ways than one. When you start working in the entertainment industry they always warn you, "Don't get involved with stars, don't mix business with pleasure." Of course, I'm the girl that likes to play with fire.

What happens when you play with fire? Well, you get burned.

In my case, you get broken.

I didn't mean for my summer internship with a management firm to land me on a tour bus.

Much less a tour bus with England's most famous five piece. One Direction.

I certainly didn't intend on falling for a curly headed boy with dazzling good looks and an upbeat attitude.

But man, I did. I fell, so hard.

I knew I shouldn't have.

Sure, it was fun living a life so opposite from my own. It was cool to say "I'm with the band." It was nice to be wrapped in a warm embrace on cold bus drives. It was simply amazing to whisper secrets to someone in backstage rooms.

It was purely amazing to be with Harry Styles.

Too bad he broke my heart the day he was returning to England, and I was returning to university.

It's been a year since the day we split. A year since he told me, he'd always love me but he couldn't be with me. It's been six months since we'd last spoke.

Since then, it'd been a short month since I finally decided to move on.

Lastly, it'd been a week since I received the news I'd be seeing him again.

I'd be a logistics head for his second headlining tour of North America.

It was going to be interesting to say the least.
