Drive Thru

Finding Out Who She Is

*Harry's POV*

"You don't need to know where I live" She rudely and defensively retorted. Okay she is seriously hiding something. After I dropped her off at her car I zoomed off to make it look like i left her. When in reality I went behind a building to wait for her. I was going to find out what she was hiding.

She came around the corner and I waited somewhat until i started following her. I let cars get in front of me so it didn't look like i was legit following her. She got off on her exit so i did the same. I followed her and followed her. The houses were okay looking. They weren't like my amazing house but you know they weren't bad. Then the houses started to get worse and smaller. When she turned down a road I could see some people lurking around like they were hiding from the cops. They had guilt, shame, and fear in their eyes. Was this where she lived? or did she just turn down here because she knew i was following her? Pretty soon she slowed down and turned into a drive way of a torn up house. I mean this house had the potential to be a cute small home but this house had broken windows, chipped paint, bad siding. you name it, it's got it. I kind of got the idea of why she didn't want me to know where she lived. I kept on going down the street and parked my car in an old--creepy--abandoned house. I ran to her house as fast as i could and hid behind the bush on the side of her house. Her brother came outside with a tired expression on his face in some sort of uniform.

"Hey bubby!" She greeted him excitedly. "hey" he tiredly said. "you off to work?" She said a bit disappointed. "Yeah, McDonald's." He simply replied. "Oh, have a good night/morning" she said with a kidding smile. "Okay, I won't." He said with a small smile. I don't know if that was a joke or not but she smiled too.

"Oh i forgot to tell you!" Her brother yelled to her from his car. "Yes?" She asked. "Mom said we won't be able to make the electricity bill so charge your phone while you can." Wow, I cannot believe he just said that. The electricity bill? That's like the most important bill there is! "Okay," she said her smile turning into a frown. What is this feeling i have deep in my gut? Am I really feeling sorry for her right now? Well I guess I am. I mean I didn't know she had it this bad. When she said she needed the money, she really meant she needed the money. Not for just going to buy a few fun things but because she needed it to help her family. I finally knew her side of the story. And i didn't like either. I had to find a way to pay her more than just $200 a week without her getting suspicious.... I GOT IT! I'll tell her that since she acted so well at the movies I'll just give her like a raise or something right? Oh my god Harry are you seriously treating this girl like this? Before the X Factor you would never even dream of hitting a girl or paying her to be your girlfriend. Well the truth was no girl wanted anything to do with me once they found out "what kind of person I was." I was getting lonely and needed something. someone. I didn't plan on paying her but I guess it just sort of happened. I needed to talk to her. I feel different now. Like since i saw how the other side is it just seriously humbled me. I can't even describe how i feel. I'm at loss for words. I have to text her.

*Rebecca's POV*

Awesome so now I have to go to a friends house for like 3 days until mom, my brother, and I can scrounge up the money for the bill. I feel like someone is watching me so I hurry up and go inside. Mom is already asleep. I put all my stuff in my room and brought out my pillow and blanket to the living room since my bed is so bad I can't even sit on it, I sleep on the couch, or my mom's bed. I plugged my phone in for it's last charge in this house for a couple days. I made my bed--or rather, couch--and got on twitter. There i saw that Harry and I indeed did get caught by the pap. stories everywhere. Directioners pissed. I'm a whore. I'm fat. I try not to care but i did shed some tears. Before i got to into what people were saying i exited out of twitter back to the home page. I sat there staring at my phone to see if anyone would text me. Nothing. Just then a text popped up from Harry. I growled in annoyance. "seriously?" i whispered to myself.
