Maid Of Honor (Harry Styles)

Chapter 5 Running Off

"Claire! There you are!" Vic ran up to me and grabbed my arm.

"Where are you taking me?"

"You have to say a speech about me."

"What?! I'm horrible at speeches!" I had a history presentation when I was in high school and failed because I kept looking at the paper and never made eye contact and kept stuttering, so I'm horrible at them.

"It's not technically a speech, just say nice things about me."

"Vic, I- I don-"

"There she is!" Jessie called out, everyone was staring at me. Vic pushed me on the stage and Jessie gave me the microphone. There were a lot of people here.

"First, I'd like to say congratulations to Victoria and Harry," I looked at Harry and he was smiling at Vic with loving eyes, it broke my heart.

"I'd- I also want to say that-that umm, I'm sorry I can't do this." I dropped the microphone and ran out. I don't know what happened I just couldn't stand seeing Vic and Harry together. I had tears in my eyes and I didn't even realize I was crying until I got into my car and looked in my rear view mirror. I'd drove off and I knew that rumors were gonna start about me but I didn't care.

I finally reached my apartment and took off my clothes to take a shower to calm me down a little.

After that, I changed into my PJ's, I checked my phone and I had seven missed calls from Harry and one from Vic.

I checked my messages and I had one from Harry.

"Hey Claire, what happened? I'm really worried about you, please call me back."

I realized something, if I can't deal with Harry and Vic together then I'm not going to the wedding, I'll call Vic tomorrow and tell her to find a new maid of honor.

I just can't do this.
