Out Of His World

Chapter Three

Emma and I were walking out of the venue to her car when we heard someone calling for us. We both turned around and she choked on her breath when we saw it was Harry Styles running towards us. We froze and he jogged up to us. Emma grabbed my forearm and I could tell she was shaking.

"Hey," he greeted us. "I'm sorry to stop you, but, I had to ask you."

"Hello, I'm Emma," she introduced herself. "This is Kayla. "Hey, I'm Harry."

"We know," Emma replied.

"Are you..." he looked at me very intensely. "Are you human?" My jaw dropped. How in the world would he know? I looked at him closely. Was he also not human? No. There was no way that any alien race could let an alien become this famous. How would he possibly know? I just awkwardly laughed as a response. He stared even harder at me, his bright green eyes peering into my lack of a soul.

"You're kidding, right?" Emma chimed in. She was looking quickly back and forth between Harry and I.

"No, of course I'm a human," I said, but my voice shook. He raised an eyebrow in disbelief.

"There's no way that you're a human." He stepped closer to me. It was intimidating, but it wasn't the worst. I felt his breath on my face.

"Kayla," Emma tugged on my arm. I turned to her and her eyes were filled with confusion and some fear. "What the hell is he talking about?"

"Kayla," Harry pulled my attention back. "Your eyes shone in the light. I've seen people's, human's, eyes in stage lights and I've never seen that before."

"Maybe you used different stage lighting tonight," I feebly whispered back. There was no way I could be discovered, not this soon into the mission.

"I'm sorry," Emma interrupted with an edge in her voice. "But can we just get back to the point in this conversation where Harry Styles is talking to us?"

"Hi, I'm Harry," he smiled at her, sticking out his hand. She shook it, her eyes wide. "Nice to meet you. But I'm interested in your friend right now, and whether or not she's human."

Oh, boy. How do I weasle out of this situation and keep my identity a secret?

a/n: i know it's short, sorry, but it's about to get intense!
