Only Half True

Part 24- No More Lies

I woke up to Louis shaking me. "Hmmm?" I questioned, sitting up. "It's time to get ready for the interview." he gently said, helping me out of the car, "First make-up, then, hair. Lastly, mics and show time." I smiled, "You'll be there every step of the way, right." "Of course, Juliet." he replied.

We did all the prep-related things and finally, it was time for the interview. The host, Chris Walkers, introduced us. We walked out and sat on the black couch.

"So, the fan are all a buzz with the surprises that came with last night interview on The Reeds show." Chris said. Louis chuckled, "Yeah. I'm sorry about that. I just... Couldn't spend one more day in a lie." I smiled at him and slid my fingers in the gaps between his. "Well, first question why did you never go public?" Chris asked and Louis replied, "Family problems. They didn't want Sky to be in the limelight so, unfortunately, we had to date in secret." He pulled me closer to him, "Until now."

A couple "Awwww"s filled the room and Chris said to me, "So cute. What made your family change their mind?" I played with the ends of my brown curls, "Um... Well, they didn't. I just... got tired of letting my boyfriend propose to other women." The crowd laughed and Louis whispered in my ear, "Nice save." “How old are you?” Chris asked and I smiled, “I turned 19 in February.” “Where are you from?” Chris asked. “Cheshire.” I replied, “I still own a small house there.” “Hmm…” he said, before starting to fire questions at me. I was willing to answer every one up until, “What are your parents’ names? Any siblings?”

“Excuse me, if this seems rude,” I started, “but how is that any of your business?” “Well, it's quite a coincidence that she has the same last name as your band member, Harry Styles." Chris commented and I sighed, "Yes, it is." “It’s just a coincidence?” he asked and I crossed my arms, “What are you trying to make me say?” “Are you related to Harry Styles?” he asked, forcefully.

I bit my lip and looked at Louis, who looked at me with an irritated expression; we obviously shared the same emotion about Chris Walkers. “This interview is-” Louis started but was cut off by someone in the crowd saying, “Yes, she is!” I turned to deny it but realized that the cry had come right from the source.

Harry.

He made his way up to the stage and pulled me up into a hug. “I’m sorry, Sky…” he whispered, “I’m sorry for never telling the whole world hat I have the best twin ever.” I smiled and hugged him back, “I forgive you, Haz…”

The crowd was full of mixed feelings; Confusion, excitement, and surprise was all wrapped up in their minds. Finally, Harry and I pulled away and Harry smiled at the crowd, “Yes. You know my big secret. I have a secret twin sister named Skylar Alexandra Styles.” I smiled and waved as the crowd, which was all cheers at this point. “Harry, nice to join the show.” Chris said, drawing our attention back to the interviewer, “Please, have a seat.” Harry shook his head, “No thank you. I don’t like how you pressured my sister for answers on her first interview. Or at anytime. I agree with Louis; this interview is over.” He wrapped his arm around my waist and I linked hands with Louis as we walked off the stage and behind the curtain.

Once backstage, Harry turned to Louis, “Look, I know I’m a terrible brother to Skylar. You treat her so much better than I ever did. Just please, don’t break her heart.” Louis smiled, “I’d never dream of it.” Then, he pulled Harry in a hug. “Group hug.” I cried, weaseling in between Louis and Harry.

I had my boys back.

Suddenly, a man in a suit walked over to us, “Mr. Tomlinson, Mr. and Miss Styles; you are needed back at HQ.” The boys nodded and we followed the man to a limousine. We filed in, Harry, Me, then Louis, and I whispered to Harry, “Where are we going?” “To talk to Management.” he replied, “They’re probably not thrilled with me or Louis at the moment.” I sighed, “Do they not like me?” Harry shook his head, “Of course they do, or they will. They just don’t like how I’ve kept you a secret this whole time. Not that they’ll be too mad; Louis and I just gave them a great news story…” He sighed, “I never wanted you to be a news topic, that’s why I kept you secret…” “I know.” I replied, “It doesn’t matter now. Everyone knows about me now. I’m finally free, right?” Harry chuckled, “Yes, Skylar. You’ll always be free now.” I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder, “Thank you.” Louis moved closer to me. “Can I join?” he smiled. I giggled and nodded, pulling Louis onto me.

We stayed that way the whole trip; Harry kept dosing off and Louis played with my fingers. We stayed in perfect silence. Eventually, we stopped and the door opened. We exited in reverse order and all walked into the office building, lead by the suit covered man. We rode in the elevator to the 3rd floor and we entered an office. A middle-aged man sat behind the desk and I recognized him surprisingly easy. “Please, sit.” the man said. Harry sat in one of the large black chairs and Louis and I sat on the other. “Are you Skylar Styles?” he asked me and I nodded. He smiled and stuck out his hand, “Hello Skylar. I’m Simon Cowell.” I shook it, “Nice to finally met you.”

I sat back down and Simon started his ‘talk’. It was what you’d expect so I’d rather not bore you with details. When it had ended, we were escorted out of the building and filed back into the limo. “Where would you like to go?” the driver asked. “The airport.” I said, looking at Louis and Harry, “Let’s go home.”

I had fallen asleep on the airplane, when we finally arrived in Cheshire. Louis landed with us, planning to stay in town for the night and returning home the next day. In my half asleep state, I could feel myself being lifted up and carried off the plane. I cuddled in, absentmindedly, not caring if it was Harry or Louis. I was just glad to have them both back in my life.
