Existence Of Love [Harry Styles Fanfiction/A Mermaid Tale]

12. The Voice

"Okay, so I'm not the biggest fan of them. As a matter of fact, I only heard about them through the halls at school. But, I think I know enough." Travis started as soon as our food came to our table. Burgers and fries. It smelt amazing. "So, they all tried out for the British XFactor and failed as solo artists, then the famous Simon Cowell put them together as a group before they left the show to go home. They made it to the top three and lost, but they 'won the world'. Made it big ever since." He shrugged and popped a fry into his mouth. "They're the biggest boy band in the world. You just so happened to save the famous Harry Styles."

I tried to absorb everything Travis was saying, biting my bottom lip in concentration.

He's famous. He sings.

Why did I like this one human out of so many other normal ones?! Ones who aren't famous or under the watchful eyes of paparazzi's?

But, Harry was angel-like. He, himself, was absolutely breath taking even through the television screen. And his voice sent shivers down my spine.

"So, being famous-?"

"Millions of people want him. Any kind of Information about him. He's known all around the world." Travis said, poking the bun of his burger.

"Want him?"

"Yup. Wanna bang him like a screen door during a tornado." He laughed, shaking his head.

I dragged my long nails across my eyebrow. The feeling of having competition with millions of other girls was overwhelming.

"You okay?"

"Many people want Harry. He won't go for me."

"That's what you're worried about?!" Travis laughs, shouting.

"Shhhh." I looked around and caught some eyes shifting away from us. He was causing a scene.

"Sorry, sorry." He chuckled. "I'm surprised that you aren't worried that if you two did become an item, and you tell him your secret, and it slips; everyone will find out."

My face turned down into a frown. He was right. I'm surprised I didn't think of that.

"Right..." I toyed with my fries and sighed. "This is gonna be hard."

"But he says he wants to meet you! He owes you his life. That could be a plus."

"Yes, but what if he doesn't like me? What if I tell him what I am and he doesn't want me because of it?"

"Well, you obviously can't tell him right away. You two should get to know each other first before you tell him that you're the oceans daughter."

"I like that."

"What?"

"'Oceans daughter'."

"I got it from a song. It used to be one of my favorites. Haven't listened to it for a few months."

"What's it called?" I ate a fry and my stomach screamed in satisfaction. "Mmmm!"

He chuckled. "It's called 'Mermaid' by Train." Travis lifted his burger and took a bite.

"Ironic."

He smiled and winked at me. We finished up our meals, and left with stomachs that felt like it was gonna explode.

"What do we do now? Since we now found out that my Harry is famous." I asked, looking up into his clear eyes.

"Some how find him and get him to see you. Maybe he'll recognize you."

"Maybe."

"Hey, turn that frown up side down, and lets go try out my new board!"

"I can't get in the water." I said, watching my green shoes tap against the ground with every step.
