Emily's P.O.V
"Emily, Wait!"
The faint voice yelled behind me.
I had tears streaming down my face.
He didn't even bother chasing after me.
Some friend he was.
I felt the cold rain whip at my skin.
I hugged myself and shivered. I didn't mind that my wet hair was covering my face. I couldn't care less about my appearance, it didn't matter anymore... All I want is his soft touch on my skin and his warm embrace.
I sighed, I didn't imagine it to be like this. I'm so stupid, falling for his stupid smile and his stupid perfection. But it's all my fault, I'm causing this heartbreak. I'm putting it on myself.
I wonder... how many girls must want to know what it's like to know and meet Harry Styles? I guess I was just one of them silly girls with dreams about Harry Styles. Silly me for falling in love.
Now for you to understand what I'm talking about we're gonna have to take it back a few years or so.

* Five years earlier *
I've been working at the 'Cuppa' for a long time now.
It's an average coffee shop down the road. Its not well known but we get our fair share of customers.
Not many people worked here, only like 6 people.
There was; Me, My best friends; Aria and Harry, This bitch Sonnet, My boss Byron and my friend Electra.
"Hurry up we have customers." His annoying, sharp voice ordered. I rolled my eyes at his un-wanted presence. Some people just need to know how annoying they are. Like that girl Sonnet.. now she can go fuck right off. She was a stereotypical bitchy blonde. She wore tight clothes and her skirt was so short you couldn't see it behind her work apron.
I continued to clean the already clean counter as I had nothing left to do. We were closing in a few minuets and there were only 2 customers here, they were a couple. they're so cute; they were holding hands and whispering to each other.
I was snapped out my trance by a hand waved in front of my face. I jumped back a little just to see it was Harry. I sighed in relief and slapped his tense muscles.
"What do you want?" I laughed in my words. He smiled and reminded me about going to the cinema with him today. Just as friends you know? Just friends.
"Yeah, it's nearly closing time." I didn't make eye contact, I don't wanna get lost in his electric green eyes. He placed a hand on the counter revealing his muscles. I couldn't help but take a peek. His hot breath pressed against the crook of my neck sending shivers down my spine.
"Harry stop... People are looking." I stuttered. He smirked behind my loose hair on my back. He could see right through me. I stopped cleaning the tables and froze like a deer on headlights.
"Nobody's watching, Emily.." He chuckled. I could feel my cheeks burn up. He was such a flirt, even though it was just a joke. We were interrupted by Aria.
"What are you doing?" She asked in a cheeky smile. Harry quickly moved away from my embrace. I could feel my cheeks turn in a darker shade of crimson. He chuckled nervously.
"Nothing, we were just gonna leave." I answered, hanging my apron up on the hook. Harry stayed quiet, obviously embarrassed. Yeah, Aria was the type to tell people what was going on. She was funny and a likeable person. Aria has long dark hair and brown eyes. She wasn't the tallest person but her small figure was cute.
"Okay, Where are you going?" She winked at me. I rolled my eyes as I knew what she was thinking. I've had a crush on Harry ever since I've met him and Aria is the only one who knows that, she knows everything about me.
*Flashback*
I walked into the small coffee shop and looked around. It wasn't that crowded so it wouldn't be a rush to work in. The walls were a light beige colour and the floors were polished wood. The were small tables scattered around the small shop and on the left there was a counter. I paid more attention to who was working the till. He had curly brown hair and emerald green eyes. He looked about my age. I quickly scanned the room for a person who looked like a manager. I stood there awkwardly when a voice bounced across the room.
"Can I help you." A mans voice spoke. I turned to see it was the guy at the till. He gave me a small, innocent smile and I couldn't help but notice his eyes. His eyes.. Sparkled.
*End of flashback.*

We close and locked the doors behind us and of course Sonnet clinging onto Harry's arm. I rolled my eyes and checked my phone for the time. We're going to be a while but my guardians need me home by 10pm.
I listened to their conversation and Sonnet getting rejected again. It was funny how Harry actually has dignity and she just throws herself around like a unwanted paper bag.
"Okay, Sonny I got to go." He scratched the back of his neck out of awkwardness. I giggled at the face of disgust on Sonnet's face. Her face was caked with make-up and her clothes were always too small, like Jesus girl stop shopping in the baby section.
With a little more arguing and convincing she finally left. I sighed out in relief. finally. We both laughed at her while she flirted with another guy down the road.
We walked the opposite way and let the cold British air hit our faces. There wasn't many people in the streets of London, that's unusual it's usually super busy. The cinema wasn't that far away so we had limited time to think of what we wanted to watch. We suggested some good movies but eh, I wasn't feeling any of them. In the end we decided to go to McDonalds. We sat down in the busy McDonalds food court.
"What do you want? I'm buying." He smiled his heartbreaker smile that made me melt away. I laughed nervously and told him I wanted a small cheeseburger and chips with a coke.
He didn't say anything and went to order. I couldn't help but notice the couples around us. This particular couple caught my eye. The female in the couple was arguing and trying to get his attention but he ignored her and carried on texting. It was kinda sad but I was blocked by their view by Harry sitting in front of me. I gave him a small smile but he didn't return it. He sighed and looked me in the eye.
"Emily, I have something to tell you..."
