Hidden (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Up All Night

I rubbed my eyes as I sleepily walked through the isles of the minimart near my hotel. Although I could afford it easily eating out for every meal for almost three weeks was getting to be too much. I wasn't much if a cook, but if it meant not having to act formal in a restaurant for almost an hour I was going to take my chances at food poisoning. I add a few containers of ravioli to the grocery basket swinging from my arm and walked into the next isle. Along one side was a wall of magazines each organized by topic. I myself on the cover and smiled happily remembering the shoots and then saw another that I hadn't expected.

HARRY STYLES OFF THE MARKET?

Behind the letters was the picture of Harry and I with the girl we had taken a picture with on top of the London Eye a few days ago. We hadn't talked since or seen each other. I grabbed the magazine off the shelf and added it to my basket figuring I'd read it later and see what the latest rumors were on this 'scandal' according to the caption below.

With everything that I'd need for my last couple of meals in London I headed to the checkout. An older man began ringing up my items as I took them out of the basket and placed them on the conveyor belt. He picked up the magazine and looked for the barcode when he saw the cover. He looked up and studied my face very carefully and held up the magazine to compare the two. I smiled and shrugged my shoulders. He began to laugh as he finished bagging my items and gave me a final amount.

"Thank you, come again." He said as I picked up my bags bulging with food.

"Thank you too!" I replied swinging my bags as I walked out of the store.

The sun was just coming up as I walked along the storefronts to my hotel. Shop owners inside their businesses were beginning to open up. They flipped over closed signs, unlocked doors, and turned on lights slowly bringing the slumbering city awake.

As I turned the corner onto the street to get to my hotel I saw a large crowd of people gathered around the entrance. Every single one of them held a camera waiting for either someone to leave or someone to enter. I had a bad feeling that someone was me. Ducking my head down I walked closer hoping that wouldn't recognize me. That went out the window as soon as I got about 10ft away from them.

"Abigail! Over here!"

"Abigail, is it true you are dating Harry Styles of One Direction?"

"Are you pregnant with his baby?" What? Sometimes I wonder were these people get their rumors from.

"Abigail, are you in a relationship with Harry?"

"Abigail, look over here!"

"Abigail!"

I push through the crowd trying to get to the main lobby before I spill my food all over the sidewalk. Of course, they push back trying to get pictures and answers out of me. Eventually I make it up the steps and through the revolving door without dropping my bags. I punched the up button on the nearest elevator and waited for the doors to open. It takes a few seconds, but they eventually do and much to my surprise Caitlyn is standing inside.

"Abigail! What are you doing?"

---

"Never again! I already warned you and what do you do? You go out!" Caitlyn shouted as I pulled food out of their plastic bags and put them in either the fridge or cupboards.

"I went out early. I didn't think anyone would recognize me at this time of day."

"Normally they wouldn't, but ever since you started getting all buddy-buddy with Harry things have gotten worse."

"Worse? I've spent two days with him. That's it! How could things get worse from two days?"

"You obviously didn't see his latest then." She pulled out her Blackberry and began typing away. I swear she'd be lost without the damn thing.

"What's he say?" Another celebrity's mention of you in an interview can make or break you.

Caitlyn handed her phone to me as a video began playing on the screen. Harry along with the rest of the One Direction boys sat on a long couch across from Alan Carr. Great. They appeared to be in the middle of the interview when the audio began playing.

"So boys, what's the love life like? Anyone special!" Alan asked.

Each if the boys took turns describing their current relationship status. Harry was last.

"I meet this girl and we've been talking a lot recently and I kinda like where it's going." He said and my heart skipped a beat.

"Does this mystery girl have a name?" Alan asked leaning forward in his seat eager for an answer.

"Yes, but I'm not ready to say it yet. I want to see where this goes if it goes anywhere."

Then, the video ended.
