Only Now Exists (One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter 11

Stephanie's P.O.V

Ha! I knew it! Kate did like Louis! They were meant to be together! I grab the remote and press play. We watched one of our favorite movie, White chicks. Kate and I aren't the girls who watch "chick flicks". Besides mean girls, I mean, Who would NOT want to watch a movie about a girl from africa who overthrows the "queen bee" of high school?

As the ending comes, I see her break out her "nervous" look. She bites her lip and starts sweating. Cool thing is, Her eyes turn a darkish green with yellow swirls, and her cheeks get super pink! " Kate, are you ok?" Do you want to talk about anything else? What about that Sawyer kid you saw today? Wasn't expecting that!" I say with a laugh. " Stephanie, I... I..." She took a long pause and looked at my pajama pants. They were big on me, but I fixed the waist a while back. In the eight grade, My friends, Claire and Marley, made me "end of the year" presents. Marley gave me a bracelet, and Claire gave me pajama pants. She made them at school, and got a 100 present on it, and gave them to me.

" I really like those pants." She blurted out nervously. " Those dashing hearts and cute cupcakes on them can get a man from a mile away." She said in a British accent. Then got her bangs and brushes them up with her fingers, just like Harry. "Hey, watch it. Don't mess with Harry!" I say sternly, but begin to smile and burst out laughing. " Hey, You and Harry are going to get married, don't deny it." She said sarcastically, but seriously. I blush and get a glass of water. I like Harry, more than I do Liam. I put myself to it, and I only want to be friends with Liam.

" Stephanie, love. Wake up, come on I want to talk to you. " A husky British voice whispers. I open my eyes to see thousands of curls. " What, what do you want? WHAT are you doing in MY room?" I say, my voice raised. " Love, come on. I want to take you somewhere."  he said. It's Still dark out, possibly 3 A.M, I'm assuming. I get up and see Harry smile. " What are you smiling about?" I say. " Stephanie, you look good in mint." He says, turning on my lamp. What? What does he mean by... OH MY GOD.   "Turn around and look at the wall, now!" I say. I look down to see myself in my underwear and bra, my mint ones. God, This is so embarrassing!  I walk to my dresser and get my pajama pants and t-shirt. Wow, Who let this boy in?! " Ok, Sorry you had to see that." I say. Harry giggles and grabs my hand.  " I'm going to take you to a place here, no one... and I mean NO ONE knows about." Before I know it and I'm gone, leaving Kate in the apartment alone.

I follow him and we soon come to a weird hallway, with only one door. " Where are you taking me? I have witnesses, just so you know." I say with a laugh. " Stephanie, Why one earth would I kill a sweet girl like you?" He said. "Especially a girl who can rock the color mint." He added, while winking.

"Alright, we're here." He said. We were on the roof, looking out to the city lights. He gestures to the old mattress with lots of pillows and blankets. He had lights hanging over it as well. "Take a seat, love. I thought, We could get to know each other. While watching the busy city fall out into Monday morning." He said, with that gosh darn half smile." This is beautiful Harry. Are we allowed up here?" I say nervously. " No. I like to be alone sometimes, I don't want anyone knowing I'm that teenager who looks at stars and cars all night." He said. " I just met you a few days before, but I feel like I can be myself around you." He added. " That must mean I'm pretty special, doesn't it? " I whisper, still in awe by all of the stars out. " More than special. " He whispered, as he grabs my right hand a kissed it.

" So tell me about yourself. I want to know everything, I'm still in awe when you talked to me at the concert." He said shyly. " I don't plan on sleeping tonight, I want you to talk and me to listen until the sun comes out." He added. " Well, Where do you want me to start?" I say with a giggle. He passes me a blanket. There was a small wind. I wasn't cold, but my feet have poor circulation, and were freezing. Yet, I don't sleep with socks.

"Why don't you start with family, then school, friends, or in your case " nest friends" , Problems, hopes, dreams. Anything, that describes you as an amazing, one on a life time person to meet." He said softly. My heart is skipping beats. I'd never been treated like this. It feels amazing.

" Well for starters, I only have one nest friend, mister star counter." I say. He chuckles and lays down. I lay down with him. " So, my family is Cuban. I speak fluent Spanish. Um, My parents are amazing. They're my role models. It was incredibly hard for them to come here. My mom had a science major in Cuba, and when her, my dad, and sister came, She gave it up. So my dad could go to collage and get a high paying job. He works at an oil company here in America. We've moved a lot due to it though. Down sides, and up sides of course. I've been around the world! Also, from moving a lot, I've met incredible people." I start. He was so interested it was crazy. We both sit up. He gives me a soda and Twix bar and I continue.

" I've only had one relationship. It was for almost a year. We broke up because I moved back to Montana." I say. " Wow, you've only had 1 boyfriend. You're so you! How can you only have just one?" Harry said. I look at him with sad eyes. " I would get bullied a lot. For speaking Spanish, moving a lot, and most of all being over weight. In the beginning on 7th grade, I met this boy. Joey. I fell for him. Like fell hard, hit your face on a branch falling off a cliff falling. He liked me too, but during the middle of 8th grade, He came up to me and told me he liked me, but couldn't date me. He said I wasn't " what society was looking for" I revolved my life around him. The first day, yes I was heart broken, but the next day I was the most happiest person at the school. I was in good moods all the time, grades got from great to amazing. I became so much happier. But I started a gym membership to loose all of my fluffiness". I say, all of those days still haunt me.The teasing, mocking, it still gets to me. I can't believe how confident I was back then, to ignore them and keep my head high.

" So that's all of those bad memories gone out of the way. But the whole joey thing was something I made a big deal out of for nothing. It made me who I am now." I say with a smile. " Wow, I would had never been able to say that to a girl. And how you handled it, amazing. I admire your maturity." Harry said. He looks in my eyes, and he just said " I've never met a girl like you, you're amazing. Do you want to go out tomorrow? I drove out once, and saw the most beautiful river ever. We can have lunch and talk more. " He said. " I want you to get to know me. I'm so much more than a boy who is in a pop band." He told me.

" I'd love to get lunch with you." I said. " But I went to breakfast with Liam, and I only think of him as a friend, it seems kind of rude to date one of his best friends." I continued. " Well, We can just not tell anyone." He said with a side smirk. " Oh, I..  I can't do that."  I whisper, I yawned in the middle, so he got the signal I was sleepy. He grabbed a huge and soft pillow and laid me down. "Why can't you?" He said. " "I tell my parents everything, I can't be secretive, except when a really good friend has a secret." I say sleepily.

" Well, Then lets make our relationship a secret. It's not going to be good if the press find out. All I want to do is protect you. So don't even tell Kate." He said. My head was nested on his chest, his arm around me. I'm looking up at the stars. This boy is perfect, how he wants to protect me, and all I have to do is keep my mouth quiet. I'll try. " Alright. But at least let me tell my parents." I say. I saw him nod with agreement. I'm dozing off, I turn and glare at the moving cars. Harry turns over and hold me in his arms. Thank goodness he did, I was freezing.

"I'll see you later beautiful." He whispered in my ear. I felt  warm kiss on my cheek. It sort of stayed for a little, and then pulled back. I smile softly, and gently close my eyes. Knowing I'm protected by one of my new, deep secrets.
