Chapter 3 - Anne

My mom and I were currently sitting in the car, going to meet the new band that I was going to work for.

“I am so excited Liz!” mom said. “You are going to be shocked when you meet them.”

I think that mom was more excited than me to meet the band! Sure I was excited but I was also apprehensive at the same time. I mean I am going to work for them for a year, what if they don’t like me? What if we don’t get along? What if they think I’m a horrible stylist? Urghh! Stop with the ‘what if’s’ Lizzy!

“We’re here” chimed mom as we got out of the car.

As we entered the large building, I noticed a woman standing at the entrance.

Oh my gosh…it can’t possibly be-

“Anne!” my mom cried while rushing towards Harry Styles’ mother.

“Candace!” Anne said while tightly hugging my mom.

 “Wow, Elizabeth Stone! Look at you, how much you’ve changed in six years! I wouldn’t have recognized you if not for Candace.” She said while coming to embrace me.

“Hi Anne. I’ve missed you.” I squealed while hugging her back.

“Me too kiddo.”

“I am extremely happy to see you but I have to ask, what are you doing here?”

“Ah! Always the curious one! I won’t tell you now, you’ll see.” She said while guiding us inside.

We entered a big bright room which had a conference table in the middle which was surrounded by rolling chairs. The room was white and had an amazing odor to it.

“The boys will be here any moment. Let’s sit down in the mean time” said Anne. “So, Lizzy tell me how are you?”

“I’m good. I still can’t believe you’re here. Sorry I couldn’t come to the wedding though. Mum said that it was fantastic.”

“Yes, I am extremely happy with Robin.”

“That’s great Anne, you deserve to be happy.” I said and I meant it. I had never seen Anne do anything for herself back when she lived in New York. She was always caring for Harry and his sister Gemma and had no time for herself, so it’s good that she met Robin. Mom had met him at the wedding and had told me that he’s a really sweet man.

Mom and Anne dived into conversation, seeing that they had a lot of catching up to do. I was going to say something when my buzzed. The moment I read the text I tensed. It said:”Hey babe, miss me?” Itwas from my ex-boyfriend Daniel. I broke up with him a few months ago and this was the first time he had conversed with me since the break-up. I was going to come up with a sarcastic reply when suddenly the door burst open.

Loud chatter filled the room.

I looked up to see who it was and to say that I was shocked would be an understatement. There entering the room was One Direction. I should have known! Who else would my mom choose?

They stopped talking when they saw us.

For a few seconds all of us were just staring at each other. I looked and saw all of their five perfect faces. They were all so cute and good looking. I absolutely love those five lads! They are all so hot and around my age so excuse me for fangirling!

But my eyes were on Harry. He was so handsome, with his green eyes, curly chocolate-brown hair and cute dimples.

“You, what are you doing here?” He cut me out of my daze when he accusingly pointed a finger at me.

“Harry, honey why are you talking to her like that?” said Anne.

“Mom, she’s a bloody stalker! She bumped into me yesterday when I went to Starbucks and-“ he continued ranting while I rolled my eyes.

Harry abruptly stopped when mom spoke up.

“Hi Harry.”

“Candace?” he said shocked, as he noticed her for the first time since he entered the room, while coming over to give my mom a hug.

“Yes, and stop humiliating my daughter!” she jokingly scolded.

“Daughter?” he echoed, turning to me.

“Yeah” I said, rolling my eyes at his dumb-founded expression.

“Liz!” he excitedly shouted while running over to me.

But before he could hug me, I quickly punched him in the face.

“Ouch.” He said while clutching his nose.

“You deserved it, you idiot, for not recognizing me and accusing me.”

“I know, I’m sorry but you’ve changed so much! I mean look at you” he said after giving me a long hug. His eyes shamelessly roamed over my body, while a blush rose to my cheeks.

“Ahem” someone cleared their throat.

He quickly averted his eyes.

“Well Harry, at least introduce us man” said Niall.
