Harry Styles never liked being around people. Being around them meant getting close to them. Being close to someone meant there were expectations to live up to and commitments that had to be made. It also meant that feelings were developed. Whether they were friendly feelings or more than that. Another reason he didn't like being close to people is that they always leave. Harry has had enough people leave to know that it's not worth getting close to someone in the first place because they always leave in the end.
Which is why he lives alone in a small secluded cottage like house at the edge of the woods in a small town a few minutes west of Holmes Chapel, Cheshire with his fat old cat Dusty. The small two bedroom cottage is tucked away between the tall trees of the woods. Most of the walls are made of glass and give him a great view of the green forestation around him. He doesn't worry about people looking in because no one ever came near it anyway. At the back of the house a small fresh water stream runs past. The house is very modern, he'd had it designed and built to fit his liking.
He never has any visitors drop by and that's how he likes it. He's not completely cut off from civilization though. He works at a small bakery with an old lady named Barbara (I had to). The bakery is tucked away in the corner of a small shopping block that simply consists of a grocery store, an old library, a coffee shop and the bakery itself. The people that work and shop in the block are all elderly. Everyone that lives in the area excluding Harry all seem to be over 50 years old. They're always kind to Harry but never stop to talk long and just go along with their business.
He has everything he needs in this small complex and he has never had the urge to leave, wanting to stay here until he is old, shriveled up and wrinkly like every other resident occupying the small town. Most 19 year olds would be out partying and hooking up or at university studying to become something big or even traveling the world but none of this ever appealed to young Harry.
Harry loves his life, it's extremely quiet and a lot of people would say it is boring but he wouldn't swap it for anything.
But then one day a loud obnoxious lad decides to visit the small town and put a dent in Harry's quiet life. What happens when the lad decides he finds a liking towards the curly haired boy and makes himself at home in Harrys life whether Harry likes it or not.

This is kinda like a prologue thingy. It's rushed and not structured very well but I'm gunna fix it up, titles not final either.
Photo on the side is roughly what his house looks like, best I could find aha
But I'd like to know who would read it if I continued to write, so feedback maybe? It won't be started right away but I'll start drafting it
