Those Curls

Chapter 9

Brooklyn's P.O.V

"Harry!" Louis yelled. I opened one of my eyes and looked around. Harry was on the love seat, and Louis had Sophie on his hip. I guess he just got back, which means I wasn't asleep for that long. I didn't feel tired anymore, either.

"Shut the bloody he-" Harry looked at me and smiled. I guess he thought I was asleep.

"Curse in front of my child. I dare you." I threw the blanket off my legs and took Sophie from Louis. "Lou? Why do Soph's cheeks have tears on them?" I asked. He took off his coat and sat down on the couch.

"I got bombarded by fans at the ice cream parlor and Sophie got scared, but she'll have to get over it." Was he going to make her man up? Niall gets scared of the fans, and he's eighteen.

"And why is that?" Harry questioned.

"Because," Louis ran a hand through his tousled hair and sighed. "One of the fans asked if Sophie was my daughter, and I said no. But then she asked if she was your daughter, and I didn't answer, but she knows, and soon the whole fan base will know Harry Styles has a daughter and that Sophie's mother is Brooklyn. And she is Liam's best friend and you banged her and this is bad." He needed to breath. He said it all so fast.

"Harry?" I questioned.

"Yes, love?" He looked up at me, and he had his eyes narrowed. He was thinking.

"This won't be good for me or Sophie. Or you, but you don't have a choice." Me and Sophie needed to get away from the boys. Not the fans, but the boys. That way the boys won't get spotted with Soph.

"I know, you need to leave." He said taking out his phone and looking at something.

"Leave? So now Sophie can't see you? But instead of you leaving us, we have to leave you. Nice way to turn it around. You have made my life a living nightmare! " I yelled and stormed off into Sophie's room. I stood in front of her dresser and wiped my tears away.

"Brooklyn. No, Brook!" Harry yelled my name, but I put Sophie down and started to pack Sophie's things. All she needed were clothes, toys, her bed and some of her blankets and things.

"Where we goin' Mummy?" Sophie asked from her spot on the floor. She was playing with Ella and a small blanket. I had bought her the blanket and it had a monkeys head on top of it.

"We have to go away, but it will be alright." I finished packing her dresser full of play clothes. Now her hanging clothes. I cleared the closet in no time, then put some toys in the suitcase. I zipped it up and grabbed a big bag that could be a suitcase too. I put the rest of her toys in it, and added her blankets and things. All that was in her room now was the big furniture, Sophie, Ella and Sophie's 'Lovie'. I walked into the Living room and put Sophie's suitcase and bag down next to the love seat. Harry grabbed my arm and made me look at him.

"Brooklyn. I don't want you to go away. Especially not now that you have Sophie, but you don't have a choice. If you don't want Sophie to grow up in a rock star environment, then go. Before everything goes wrong." I pulled my arm out of his grip and went to pack my stuff. I got all of the things I would need, and Harry made plans to send my bed, Sophie's crib, and our dressers to our flat already, and people should furnish and stock everything so when I get there I won't have to do anything. He had gotten us last minute plane tickets and a big pent house suite to stay in. Everything was set, and we were at the airport.

"Dwaddy I dwon't want to gwo." Sophie cried into Harry's chest. She was really torn up about all of this, and it was killing me. I hated it when she cried.

"Brooklyn?" Louis asked from behind me. I turned around and saw that he was sad too.

"Hey Boo Bear. Promise to visit?" I walked over to him and buried my head in his chest.

"Promise, and I'll bring the boys with me." I could feel the tears coming on. I was going to miss each boy dearly, but Louis, Liam and, I hate to say this, but Harry the most. Niall and Zayn were my like my brohters too, but Louis and Liam had helped me throught this, and Harry, well I don't know why I'll miss him. I can't be getting my feelings for him back. That will end in heartbreak.

"Flight three seventeen to Orlando, Florida USA." I pulled back from Louis and walked over to Harry.

"That's us. I'll miss you, and I still owe you that date." I smiled at him, and I didn't feel that mad at him anymore. I kissed him on the cheek, and took Sophie from his arms.

"I'll miss you too. And you Sophie. I'll call you every night. I love you Sophie." He kissed her forehead and Sophie kissed his cheek.

"Bye bye. Wove you." I started walking to the gate when my phone buzzed in my pocket. I stopped and opened a new text I had from Harry.

Tell Sophie I love her one more time.

Maybe he really did care about Sophie, and maybe he has changed.

I will.

"Sophie, Daddy said he loves you." She smiled.

"Wuv him too." I kissed her cheek and Harry replied back.

Thanks. And I love you too.

What was I supposed to write back? I didn't know if I loved him, but half of me said I did. I didn't know what to do. I locked my phone and got on the plane. When the plane took off, and we could use our phones again, I pulled out my phone and stared at the text.

Thanks. And I love you too.

"What's tat Mummy?" A tired looking Sophie asked from the seat next to me.

"Nothing. Get some sleep." I kissed her forehead before she curled up in her seat and drifted off. I locked my phone again, and grabbed a book I had brought along. It was The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks.

When the plane landed, it was seven o'clock in the morning in Florida time. I stood up and grabbed Sophie who was still asleep, and went to baggage claim. Harry said there should be a man there to pick me up and drive me to our new flat. I grabbed my two suitcases and Sophie's suitcase and bag, then headed to the pick up place. I spotted a tall man with a sign that said 'Brooklyn Greene'. I walked over to him, and put our bags down.

"Hi! I'm Brooklyn." I smiled, even though deep inside I was tired and sad. I still hadn't replied to Harry, and I missed the boys.

"I'm Jerry. Let me get your bags. You have enough to carry." He motioned to sleeping Sophie, and I nodded. I opened the door to the limo and got in, placing Sophie on the seat next to me and pulling out my phone. The car started to move, and we were on our way. Harry told me to text him when we got there, so I did.

Here. And sorry for not replying. I got on the plane to fast. But Harry, I don't know if I love you. I need to think.

I was just telling him the honest truth. The car stopped and I put my phone in my pocket. I grabbed Sophie and opened the door to a giant apartment building.

"Here is your building. Take me to your apartment and I'll put these in there for you." I nodded and walked in to the lobby.

"Hi. My apartemnt is...." I pulled out my phone and checked the room number Harry had sent me. "1000, and I need a key please." I must really have to top because this is a huge building, and I had apartment 1000. I guess the apartments here compared to the flats in London just were closer together. The thought made me laugh to myself.

"Okay..... Brooklyn Greene?" I nodded, and she handed me a key. I thanked her and I walked over to the elevator, the push floor 1000. Wow, high. The elevator got there in no time at all, and I found out that I have to put my key in the elevator to get to my apartment. That menas- The elevator opens up into my living room.

"Wow." I gasped and walked in.

"Where would you like these?" Jerry asked.

"Just set them down there." I said pointing to a spot by one of the bedroom doors.

"Okay." He set them dwon and walked out before I could even thank him. I felt Sophie stir in my arms and yawn.

"Where awe we mwmmy?" She asked, rubbing her eyes.

"This is our new home." I smiled down at my small daughter, and kissed her cheek. This was going to work, and Sophie would be safe too.
