Recovery - harry styles

Chapter 2

As I was walking towards the garbage can, I heard fast footsteps behind me. “What did this boy want to do, to torture me?” I thought to myself. I threw the trash in the bin and walked off. I could tell he was following me. I finally turned around and screamed “What do you want!”  My face immediately turned to cherry red realizing I had just screamed at a young girl. The boy put his arm around the little girl and said “Did the mean girl scare you?” She nodded her head. He pulled some money out of his pocket and handed it to the young girl while saying “Go get you a treat honey it will be okay.” I wanted to slap him! Why is he doing this to me? He walked towards me, grabbed my arm and spun me around.

“What would you like to ride first, love?” he said as his body drug me towards the rides. I didn’t answer his question. We walked up to a big ride. It was the biggest one in the entire amusement park. I looked at him with disbelief clear on my face.

“ There is no way in hell that I am riding this.”

He smiled. He actually smiled! “I know you’re not. We are.” He said with a wink. I wanted to punch that stupid smirk off of his face. We sat down in our seats and he buckled me in. I mumbled something about how I’m not an invalid and could have done it myself, but he either didn’t hear me or chose to ignore it. I couldn’t really comprehend what was going on. I was on a scary ride, with a boy, and I had no clue who he was. The ride was about to begin when I realized that I was shaking. He looked at me and grabbed my hand. “My mum always told me when things get scary, hold on tight. So if you get scared, hold on tight to me.” He said. I gripped his hand so hard I could feel his pulse in the palm of my hand. It made me feel safe. When the ride was over he lifted the door on the side for us to exit the ride. He started laughing really hard. I looked at him in confusion.

“You held on really tight.” My face turned cherry red once again. He smiled and said, “It’s okay, I liked it.” We kept walking through the park.

“What is your name?” He asked.

“Chloe.” I said quietly.

“What a lovely name you have.” He said. All of a sudden I heard loads of screaming. I turned around to see tons of screaming girls running towards us. He grabbed my hand and started running. I had no idea what was going on. He led us into a room and shut the door. I looked at him confused as he was laughing. “Sorry, I didn’t want them to see you with me Chloe, I don’t think you would want that kind of attention right now.” 

“What the hell are you talking about.” I said puzzled.

“You know, all the fans.” He told me with a confused look on his face. Why is he confused?

“Oh I didn’t know you were that popular” I said rudely.

“It’s not easy being in a number one boy band and coming out in public.” He said. My eyes widened and I started laughing uncontrollably. “You are in a boy band?” I managed to get out between laughs.

“Is this some kind of joke? How do you not know who I am?” He said. I started laughing even more. “You can’t be serious.” I said. His phone rang and he pulled it out of his pocket. When he saw who the caller was he made a face. His face changed as he spoke to whoever was on the other end of the conversation. “Yes I know. I’m aware. Alright I’ll be there in a second.”  He hung up the phone with a sigh. “Management really gets on my nerves sometimes.” He said. I started laughing again. This had to be some kind of joke! This boy was crazy. He looked at me and said, “Chloe I have to go, can I have your number.” I don’t really know why I gave it to him, but I did. He turned to walk out of the room. “By the way, my name is Harry.” He said. He gave me one final smile and ran out of the door.

I finally met back up with my friends. We rode a few more simple rides then headed to the car to go home.  In the car on the way home I was still in a daze. I was so confused about what had happened today. Karen screamed “Oh my god! One Direction was at the amusement park today and we didn’t see them!” All the girls started screaming. I looked puzzled. “Chloe why aren’t u screaming?” said Karen. I looked at her and said, “Who is One Direction?” She dropped her mouth wide open and stared at me. “The biggest boy band in the entire world Chloe where have you been?” she said. I looked at her and said, “Sorry I’m not into the bubblegum pop boyband phase like every other 10 year old.” She didn’t take it offensive and they just chattered on about the band. I started to put the pieces together in my head. If a boy band was at the amusement park, and Harry said he was in the band, maybe it was him. I shook the thought away, and forgot all about it.
