Stellar Evolution Part II

-Harry-

"Either way, someone's going to England in three days."

So no one bothered to tell me to check the fucking plane tickets.

I thought I had another week to finish this shit out.

I can't leave Andromeda. Not after all this shit. And the girl is still here. That's worth something.

But Andromeda can't leave her family for some dumb fucking reason. If you ask me, they're a shit family to begin with, I don't know why she's so tied to them.

When Nate and I left, nothing was solved, and now it's day three. Andromeda hasn't called or texted me, and every time I went to her house, she didn't want to see me. I don't know what kind of "goodbye" she's planning, but I don't like it.

I leave for England in twelve hours. I look around my haphazardly packed room. There's still stains on the dark blue wall from the day we promised each other we'd be in it, together. My guitar is still sitting where it was the night Andromeda first walked in here and fainted. In between the strings was a letter for her, just in case she did decide to come in and I'd left.

Why did I leave a note?

Have you ever heard that Naked Brothers Band song?

"Long distance relationships will kill you."

I'm not going to be the chain anymore.

Fuck it, I'm not going.

-Nate-

An hour before he was supposed to leave for the airport, Harry was passed out on his bed with a bottle in his hand.

Being the amazing twin brother that I am, I prepared for this. I checked his room before I left though, knowing he'd leave something for Andromeda. His predictable ass left it in his guitar. I'll take that.

I said goodbye to mum and Robin, which was quick, because they would be visiting soon with my brother.

I heaved all of his bags into my car, thinking how much I'm going to miss this pretty rent-a-car. I woke the butler so he could drive us to the airport and return the car.

You might be asking, "who's us?"

There are two choices.

Andromeda. Lianna.

Short literary lesson before we continue: there are three main conjunctions.

If you didn't know that, School House Rock it up, mate.

So, three. The possible sentences are:

Andromeda or Lianna.

Andromeda but Lianna.

Andromeda and Lianna.

-Andromeda-

Surprisingly, my parents were cool with Lianna and I going back to England on such short notice. They wanted to work on their relationship, and we make too much "ruckus."

This way, Lianna could do her smart kid studying thing, and both of us can "reconnect with family."

Like hell I will.

Mother was especially hard with my goodbye. Teary eyed and with a box of tissues, she struggled giving me a speech about love and dependency, and how I can come back when the school year starts. I do know that right? This can be seasonal. Every little star in the sky goes through seasonal changes.

"Stellar Evolution", my dad interjected.

"When a star goes through immense changes. You two stars are about to go through heavy changes. It's called growing up. Mother and I can't keep chains on you anymore. Lianna will be starting college a year early, and Andromeda, if you decide, you can go to University-"

"Absolutely not!" My mother screamed.

"Cassandra, please. Either way, we will be here behind you, one thousand AU percent."

Beautiful, moving, speech. But all I saw is the man who hit me and failed our family, something I will never forgive him for. So I quickly nodded and turned to my sister.

-Lianna-

Zayn is leaving next week, after his doctor and therapist say it's okay for him to go home.

All these pieces falling into place...it's all so quick.

My life the past month and a half has moved at such a quick pace.

My father got sacked, that's why we moved back here.

"Temporarily," he said. But we have no money. He definitely intended on living off of mother for the rest of his pathetic life as a failure.

Nate got mad at me for skipping town because he thought I wouldn't be able to study with him, but I guess that's happening now.

And I thought I'd be able to cruise through life happily without having to see Hannah again. Fuck. Now I have to live with her.

That'll be my third house in a month. You'd think I was Ed Sheeran before the "+" era. Except he became successful. I'm just really smart. Goody.

Getting Andromeda a passport was a mess. She had no idea they can expire. But we managed to do it. Perks of being wealthy, I suppose. However, she failed to tell Harry and that Louis guy that she was going. For being friends again, they were becoming really distant.

"Louis is in Barbados, he goes every July. We don't really say goodbye to each other when he goes anymore. Anyway...he'll find out."

"Harry or Louis?"

"...yeah."

So we just kinda showed up at the Styles home at 12am to see Harry putting the last of a few boxes in Nate's car.

"Andromeda? Lianna?" He gasped when he saw us. I said nothing but my sister squealed "Surprise! We're going as well!"

"Lianna...and Andromeda! You decided to run away after all?"

"No, remember how I told you we had family in England? They agreed to let us stay for a while so my sister can study and I can be with you."

"You just made me the happiest man alive."

I could've sworn he looked at me. His face reminded me to break things off with Nate.

"Might as well return this thing for the fuck. He better not crash my car while I'm gone," he said once my sister shared a kiss with him.

"I'm surprised you're even doing this much," my sister giggled once we all piled in the car. Thank god our bags are being delivered, I couldn't imagine riding even to Clow in this shit.

Harry turned on the ignition and looked in the rear view mirror to back out.

That was when I noticed we were in a car with the wrong Styles.
