You belong with me (A Harry Styles fanfiction)

Chapter 35

“Wait Emily” Gemma grabs my hand again so I stopped dialing Zach’s phone number

“Gemma, let go.” I looked at her but she lowered my hand down gently and shaked her head. “I need to finish the line between me and Zach”

“Not yet Emily.. It isn’t the time to rush things ahead” She looks at me and patted my hand where my phone is.

“What? Gemma, you know what he’s doing to me. He’s forcing me to love  him even though I don’t. This is why I need to stop this. I mean me and Zach are friends“ I cringed “were friends. But we shouldn’t continue this” I lift my hand up again to my ear but Gemma was persistent

“Even if that is true, we’re not even sure about the management between Harry and Taylor”

I stared at her again but what Gemma was saying was true. We aren’t sure if management really is controlling Harry for his relationship… I mean, they couldn’t be that selfish right? But what about Zach? What am I going to do with Zach?

“Are you telling me that I should just leave it like this?” I pull my arm away quickly and held my phone tight.  Gemma stayed quiet and I prayed that she would be convinced about everything I said awhile ago.

“But you have to think this Emily.” Gemma sighed “What if media found out that you’re single and suddenly finds you with Harry? You need to have a pretended boyfriend. Even if it is Zach”

“But I don’t like him” I start to raise my voice and tucked my hair behind my ear.

“And so do Harry. But we have to see what happens next. We don’t even know if Taylor is in the agreement.” Gemma crossed her arms over her chest but looked away as though she was thinking hard enough to solve a case.

“You have to keep a low profile first Emily” she looks back to me. “Observe what happens first.” Gemma nodded.

I thought about it thoroughly and agreed with her. All I need to do is to pretend that I love Zach back. I hate lying to everyone else but I’m doing this a reason.

For Harry…

Gemma patted my shoulder and starts to walk away while I turn the vacuum back on. I have to keep a low profile so I won’t be talked about. I have to lie a bit more so nobody could get hurt in the worst situation.

And by keeping profile, I should mostly hangout only with Zach. But how about Harry? Couldn’t I at least talk to him and be friends with him in a secret matter where no one could see? Even just in their house?

I looked back to where Gemma headed but she went upstairs already.

Harry’s P.O.V

“So when does your tour start?”

“Next week. The whole crew and me were practicing some stage performance all week for each of my songs” Taylor smiles

Me and the lads went our separate ways after the meeting. I was supposed to head back to my house but Taylor asked if me and her could go out in a coffee shop since she has a day to relax. And I have no choice but to take her out since it’s also a part of my job.

“Hey listen” she looks at me and smiles

“You’re on a four month break right?” she asks and I nodded and let her continue. “And you have 2 months left?”

“Yes” I sip at my coffee

“Do you like to visit me to one of my tours?” Taylor puts her hands together and waits for me to respond
