Jess’s P.O.V.

Harry and I just spent the rest of our time talking. He is pretty fun! I love his eyes and couldn’t help but get lost in them as we talked. I don’t know… He is just my roommate.

“So Jess… You ok?” Harry asks after we were silent for a while. “Umm yeah why wouldn’t I be?” Knowing full well that he is leading to what happened earlier and honestly I don’t want to think about it. “Ok well you know I didn’t know Paul had a daughter.” Harry states. “So your point is?” I question. “No I am just wondering why he never said anything?” Harry questions deeper.  This is going to be long.

“Well my mom and dad met when they were both starting high school. He was the popular soccer player and she was the popular girl. Typical story. They hung out with the same crowd and went to the same parties. Well before their freshman year ended my dad finally had the nerve to ask my mom out.” I took a breath and Harry nodded his head asking for more. “So they dated all throughout their years of high school and planned on getting married one day. Guess that never happened. My mom fell pregnant with me right before she graduated. My dad begged her to marry him and she kept saying no. She didn’t love him anymore because he ‘ruined’ her life.” I started getting teary eyed again. “My mom had me when she was 18! 18 years old and tells me I ruined her. Well anyways my dad was left heart broken but was there all throughout the pregnancy. She had me and gave my dad rights to visit. These visits also included taking me for the weekends. My dad was amazing. He took me to everything. Dance, soccer, basketball, anything I was involved in he went to. He was my parent unlike my mom. She was with her first husband for only 6 months. She met him at a bar right after she had me. I was with my dad the night she met him. Drunken mistake she says. Well she divorced him and met hubby number 2 a year later and stayed with him for a year and a half. She claims he was too controlling. I think he didn’t want me. The only thing supporting her was my dads’ child support checks.” I paused. Harry nodded again asking me to continue.

“Again she started dating. Countless boyfriends and moving all throughout Ireland; my dad threatened that if we moved away he would get full custody of me. So my mom stayed until hubby number 3 came in the picture. I was 15 when we moved to Colorado. He was from Colorado and had his kids there. So my mom told my dad to stick it and we moved. I am now 18 and haven’t seen my dad since I was 15 years old. That’s 3 years and before that my mom would refuse to let me see him at times. I went a whole year when I was 6 of not seeing my dad because my mom threatened him. I guess he didn’t know if he was ever going to see me again after we moved.” I stated. “My dad’s wedding I wasn’t allowed to go to because my mom doesn’t like Clodaghanne. Clodaghanne has been more of a mom to me than my own that’s sad. My mother packs up every summer for these past 3 years with Richard and I am shipped to a family member. For those 3 years my dad has begged my mom to send me to him. She always said no until this year when I told her I was an adult now. So she allowed it. She hates my dad more than anything. My dad was the teenage dad who actually stuck around in the childs life while my mom was the one always going out drinking and doing stuff. That is the story behind my parents.”

“Wow. Jess I am sorry. I didn’t know. I…” I cut Harry off. “No it’s fine. Honestly, I love my dad more than anything in the world. It is pretty normal for children from teen pregnancies to go through this. Well sort of I guess. That’s just what I like to believe. (Sorry if you are from a teen pregnancy or a teen pregnant. I don’t know much about it. So let me know if my information is wrong). “Jess just know that I am here for you. Why does your mom have so much hate?” Harry wonders. Before I could answer there was a knock on the door.

“I’ll get that!” I stated.

Harry’s P.O.V.

Damn! I would have never thought of Paul going through something like that as a teen. I am the same age as him when Jess was born. Kind of freaky to think I could be a dad right now if I slept around. I tried picturing Paul taking a young Jess to everything when she was younger. Didn’t her mom want to be apart of that? Wouldn’t she want to have memories of her daughter growing up?

Paul and Jess walk over to the couches that occupy the sitting area. “All is clear Jess. Thank you Harry for bringing her up here.” Paul says looking grateful. “No problem it was great getting to know Jess. She is really fun! Best roomie I have had. Just don’t tell the guys because they will get jealous.” I say making them both laugh.

“Are you two ok with the sleeping arrangements? Just let me know if you need a change.” Paul said before turning to Jess.

“You ok baby girl?” “Yeah dad I am fine. Please stop.” Jess said. “Honey you will need to be with one of the boys at all times while we still search for him.” Their conversation seemed personal so I left to go to Niall and Louis’ room.

“HEY IT’S MR. LOVE BUG!” Louis shouts. “Shut up I am not in Love!” I stated back. “Yeah sure. So what do you think of Jess. Honestly.” Zayn says as he sits next to Liam. Niall turns waiting for a response with the others. “Honestly, I like her. We just spent the last few hours getting to know one another. I just feel like she’s hiding something. I mean she opened up about Paul and her mom but there is something else. Something that has to do with what happened earlier in the lobby.” I said.

“Well you just have to keep earning her trust while working your charm.” Louis said and the boys agreed. What would I do without them?
