Prologue

Emma's POV

Well I'm Emma Reynolds, 17 years
old,and it's now been 2 years since my mom was in a terrible car accident.

I still feel horrible because I wasn't able to be with her before the accident. I was stuck here living with my father in an apartment in a small city in California.

My parents got divorced when I was just 4 years old. My dad moved to California and my mom stayed in the UK, where I was born.

I lived with my mom for 7 years until I was 11 years old then I moved to California to live with my dad for another 7 years.

It was pretty tough living with my dad considering he sometimes hit me when I 'disobeyed' him. It all started when I was 14. I still kept in touch with my mom, even though she lived in a different continent as me. She didn't know anything about my dad hitting me and I didn't want to give her any worries.

I started cutting at the age of 16 when I found out my mom passed away in a terrible car accident. I was going through so much at that age, with the news of my mom leaving me alone with my abusive father.

I actually tried committing suicide once but my best friend, Alexa Campbell, stopped me. She's always been a big support in my life and I can't thank her enough. I also have Harry as in the Harry Styles from One Direction. I've known him since I was 5 and he was 7 because our moms were close friends. I still keep in touch with him even though he's been touring around the world with his famous band.

In one week I'm finally graduating highschool and I'm also turning 18 soon so I'll be old enough to live on my own and leave the hell I'm living in right now with my so called 'father'.

I'm planning on moving with Alexa in a small apartment but we don't know where yet.

Harry called me yesterday about my mother's death anniversary today and how he's really sorry. He also invited me and Alexa to one of his concerts in London in 2 weeks, since he knew we were graduating next week. He said it's a graduation gift.

He told me he wanted us to meet the rest of the band and another band called 5 seconds of summer. Apparently, they're a band that's on tour with them for the second time. I've only heard about them a few times before and their music is really good.

Harry even paid for our plane tickets to fly out to London for the concert 2 days after me and Alexa graduate. He insisted we let him pay for our hotel but I refused because he's done enough for us.

I'm kinda nervous because I haven't seen Harry in 7 years before I moved out to California with my 'father'.

I hope his band and 5sos like me as a friend. We'll see how it goes.
