Untouched Memories (Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 6: More models, Video shoots

*4 weeks later*

 I wake to the sound of music playing in the apartment. I climb out of bed and walk down stairs to see El dancing around the kitchen to the jumpy beat of 5 Seconds of summer, making breakfast.

 God that girl is one of a kind.

 “Hey Charlie, I decided that I was in the mood for bacon and pancakes and hope you are too because I made way too much!”  I laugh at her as I pull up a seat at the bench in the kitchen.

“Louis is coming home today! I can’t wait!” She exclaims.

The boys have been in Canada for the past couple of weeks, I’m not really sure why, Harry didn’t give me a clear answer.

It’s been four weeks since I’ve seen or heard from Harry and although I have tried to call him, he hasn’t even texted me. I guess those few moments we shared were just pretend. I guess he isn’t interested.

I didn’t really tell Eleanor about Harry and I not talking. I don’t really see the point. I liked him, I really did. But he hasn’t made any effort to talk to me since he went to Canada. I didn’t really know what to do without talking to him, so I just didn’t say anything.

 It’s been just over a month since I arrived here in London and the more I stay the less I ever want to leave. I have been working non-stop with Casey, who has been calling me all the time with a new shoot to do for a new brand.

About two weeks ago, I met another guy at one of my shoots. His name is Matt. I’m still not really sure what is happening with Harry but Matt has taken me out to dinner and I’m really starting to like him. He’s sweet and he’s a model, I guess we just had something in common.

It’s not like I was actually in a relationship with Harry. We kissed. That’s all.

But it really felt like we could have had something special, something long-lasting and important.

I shouldn’t have told him about my family. Hell, I shouldn’t have told him anything about Jake. He probably thinks I’m an emotional wreck, that’s why he’s avoiding me. Nobody wants to be with a girl as unstable as I am.

 “Are you seeing Matt today?” El winks at me.

“No I have to go to Casey’s office she said it was important” I tell her, finishing my pancakes and bacon quickly then traipsing down the hallway to get ready. I take a shower and get dressed into my light blue jeans and a white top with a black beanie and jacket.

“I’m off, I’ll be back soon” I call out to El as I grab my car keys.

“Wait, do you want to pick up the boys from the airport?” El calls from the kitchen. I hesitate before answering, I really want to see the boys again but I don’t think I should. I haven’t really told El why I started seeing Matt instead of Harry but this four week silent treatment is making me hesitant to see him again.

“Nah, I have some shopping to do, you go and see Louis” I yell back walking out the door. I can hear her protest but I shut the door before she can persuade me to come.

I wait in Casey’s office playing a game on my phone, she jumps through the door just as I was about to pass the level!

“Hey Charlie, how are you?” She smiles widely at me.

“Yeah I’m great” putting my phone down and looking up at her.

“You have become really popular here in London, I have so many calls about you all the time” She flicks through some letters on her desk.

“Yeah, it’s been great you have been keeping me really busy” I smile

“And you have started to get photographed by some paps as well which means that people are starting to notice you”

“I will admit having my photo taken when I wasn’t expecting it was a bit strange, but I don’t mind.” Casey doesn’t answer me as she stares down at a piece of paper from her desk.

“Soooo you wanted to talk to me about something?” I say, starting to feel awkward with the silence.

“Yes sorry got distracted there for a second! Yes you have been requested to do a music video.”

“A music video but don’t the singers and dancers do that?”

“Yes but a band has selected you to be the love interest in their new video!” Wow I have never even thought about doing a music video.

“What band is it?”

“One direction!” I sit there stunned I don’t know what to say.

“Charlie? Why aren’t you happy? One Direction is massive exposure for you it will be great!”

“No I’m really excited! When is the video being shot?”

“Tomorrow”

Tomorrow, I have to see Harry tomorrow.  It’s been 4 weeks since I’ve talked to him. Four weeks since we… kissed. Even more than that, how am I going to tell him about Matt and will he tell me why he hasn’t talked to me? The possibilities of our meeting run through my mind. What if he pretends nothing has happened? Or pretends he doesn’t even know me.

“Well I have another meeting a car will pick you up at your place tomorrow at 8 so be ready by then ok?”

“Yeah I will thanks Casey”

Driving to the set of the video was nerve racking, we were driving out of London to somewhere in the country and the shoot goes for a couple of days so I’m staying in a hotel for the night.

“We’re here” The driver says looking in the review mirror. I smile at him and thank him for driving me here.

“It’s not a problem ma’am; I’m getting paid for it”

I laugh at his reply and head towards the hotel reception to sign in. The path is cobble stone and the hotel is made of old stone, blending perfectly with the paddocks in its background. The setting is serene and calming, a perfect contrast to the busy streets of London.

Past the main reception of the hotel a conference room has been booked for the crew to set up all the gear needed for the video. I walk into the room to let everyone know that I’ve arrived.

“Hey babe,” a voice whispers into my ear, I jump as a pair of hands squeeze my waist and turn around to find Matt smiling down at me.

“Matt! I didn’t know you were going to be here!”

“I’m an extra in the video, what about you?”

“I actually think I’m a main part!” I laugh as he pulls me into a hug.

“As long as you’re not kissing any boys” He winks at me.

“Unless you’re kissing me” He whispers as his mouth moves closer to mine. His lips linger there for a second before dipping down and meeting mine. Matt kisses me hard, as if he hasn’t seen me for a year, and takes no notice of his being surrounded by colleagues. His hands press into my sides a little too hard and I squirm under his touch. 

“What was that for?” I ask as he pulls back.

“So everyone knows that you’re mine” I frown as he walks off to talk to someone else, not really liking his answer. Turning around, I start to head towards the makeup stall.

My eyes catch another familiar pair. A stunning green pair.

Harry doesn’t give me any recognition as he storms off away from me.

He saw me with Matt. 

A/N

I'm so sorry I haven't updated for so long! I had surgery on my back and honestly I haven't even been up to date with school, so this had to wait! 

But on a brighter note, I have come up with a pretty awesome plot and you should stay tuned for more untouched memories!!! 

Also, this lovely model on the side is going to be Matt! Yes? I think yes :)
