London Underground (Harry Styles AU)

Chapter 5

Harry's POV

'Hello?' Gemma says on the other side of the phone.

'Gemma, how do y-' I start to ask.

'Harry! Hi baby bro! Guess what? I have someone who wants to go on a date with you!' she squeals slightly.

'Who is it?' I ask her.

'Kayla! I think she really likes you Haz' she tells me.

I roll my eyes at the mention of Kayla. She is the same age as me, and we dated in secondary school. We dated for 2 years before she cheated on me with a guy she met on holiday. When I was 17, Kayla and I slept together.

Kayla and Gemma became friends when we were dating and I guess they still are.

'Gemma, I've already told you that I am never dating Kayla again! She's a cheater and I'm not falling for her tricks again' I say sharply.

I hear Gemma sigh.

'Anyway, what were you calling for?' she asks.

'How do you know Simone Richards?' I question.

Gemma is quiet for a few seconds before answering.

'Aaah! Simone! We worked together for a few years. I actually think that she is a few months younger than you. You're 22 right?' she explains.

'Yeah' I tell her.

'I think she is 21 then' she says.

I thank her for telling me and start to say goodbye but she stops me.

'Wait, how do you know Simone?' she questions.

'I...uh..met her on the tube?' I tell her.

'Harry, Harry, Harry' she tuts.

'Bye Gems!' I say and she says 'Bye Haz' in response.

For siblings, we get on pretty well.

I glance at my watch and my eyes widen at the time.

I grab my car keys and I run down to my car.

I need to speak to Zayn.

It's business.

Simone's POV

The new manager is a bitch. Honest to God, I've never met a bitchier woman.

I'm so happy that work is finally over. I just manage to get the 8:13pm tube home.

When I get home, the door is locked and I know that Michael is out.

I grab my keys and unlock the door. I was right.

Michael has left a note on the breakfast bar.

'Simone,

I'm sorry for kissing you this morning. I was hungover and not thinking straight.

Sorry again,

Michael xx'

I'm kinda happy that he wasn't thinking straight.

I never really liked Michael anyway.

After dumping my handbag and bag into my room and getting changed into my pyjamas, I order some Chinese food.

When it comes, I eat it super quickly. I haven't eaten much throughout the day.

Nothing good is on T.V. so I decide to go to bed early.

My mind is still thinking about that guy Curly...

Harry's POV

When I return home, I sit on my sofa and sigh.

I just can't get Simone off my mind.

Then it clicked.

She might be on the same tube tomorrow morning.

I run to my room like a child and set the alarm on my phone.

I don't think I've ever been this excited to go on a tube.

But I just want to see her.
