Two Problems with One

Chapter 15 ~ Two Problems with One

Harry’s P.O.V

 

I woke up with Sydney cuddled into my chest. I tried to get out of bed without waking Sydney. But I failed. “Hey babe” I smiled and went to stoke her hair but she pulled back and quickly ran out of the room and ran downstairs. What the hell just happened? I slowly walked downstairs; but Sydney wasn’t anywhere. I saw her emerge from the bathroom. “Oh My! Sydney what happened?!”

“Oh it’s nothing just a stomach bug, that’s all.” She had an awkward smile wiped across her face. I was about to say something to her when I got a text from an unknown number.

From: Unknown

To: Harry Styles

Message:

Meet me at the local Starbucks in 10 minutes or ELSE!

 

“Hey sorry Syd I need to go.” I kissed her cheek and ran out the front door. Who was that? Why were they texting me? Was it a mistake? I wondered these things the whole way to Starbucks. Then I got another one.

From: Unknown

To: Harry Styles

Message:

Table 15!

 

As I opened the heavy glass door I looked for table number 15. I spotted it and a man dressed in black pants and a black hoodie was sitting in the booth. I slowly approached him. “You wanted to see me? How did you get my number? Who are you?” The man didn’t turn or say anything. He just gestured for me to sit. “So what do you want with me?”

The man turned, but I could barely see his face. “I want you… To break up with Sydney Oswald.”

“No way! What Sydney and I have is special, I love her and there is nothing you can do to stop our love.” I paused for a while. “Wait, Sydney and I haven’t gone public yet. How do you know about us?”

“I have my ways. And if I were you I would break up with her, or both of them die. Sydney and the kid.”

“Are you threatening to kill my family?!”

“Not all of them are your family though are they dear Harry?”

“What do you mean?”

“The child. She isn’t yours…”

“You don’t think I know that!”

“Then why are you her father?”

“She looks at me as a father!”

“But we all know who the real father is.” I could see him grinning through the darkness. “So stay out of my way Styles; Sydney is mine.” He paused. “Think about it, the ones you love dead, or not. I would break up with her; but that’s up to you…”

He stood up and walked away. I knew what I had to do.

“Sydney, I’m home.”

“Oh hey babe, what is up?” She kissed me and sat on the couch. “I have news!”

I now had a sad smile on my face. “So do I; you first.”

“No, no; you first.”

“Ok… Sydney, we, um… WehavetobreakupI’msorry.”

“Ok, um… English please.”

“Sydney as much as I don’t want to say this, we have to break up, I’m sorry”

“What…” Her eyes were tearing now. “Well then I suppose my news doesn’t matter then does it, Goodbye Harry.” She stormed out of the living room.

“SYDNEY! What was your news?!” Suddenly something came flying at me. A pregnancy test? Oh no… What have I done?
