Fuck buddies ( Harry Styles )

|| That fucking Bastard ||

After everything went down yesterday, I was very confused. After my dad left, Harry decided it was best for him to leave too, which added to my confusion since I wasn't sure why he wanted to rush out so fast. In the end, it was just me, my thoughts, and Harry's computer.

I didn't revisit that document, I figured it was best if I didn't read it over and over and over again. Instead, I stayed up all night trying to finish the rest of the songs. I fell asleep halfway through the second to last one so, I only have two more to finish today before the call tonight.

Dani said it was cool for me to came over to her house to do the call since I knew both my parents would be home and try everything in their ability to ruin it for me.

I'm currently at a cafe trying to finish the last two songs. It's about 1 in the afternoon and my parents are at home getting ready for the arrival of my brother.

"Here you go." A waiter says, placing down a cup

"Uh, I didn't order this," I tell him

"I did." I hear from behind me

I turn around to see, Caleb.

"Holy shit, Caleb!" I say getting up and hugging him

"How did you find me? What are you doing here? How have you been?" I ask

"Yes please keep bombarding me with questions I'll never get to answer." He says chuckling while hugging me back

"Sorry, I'm just- I can't believe you're here," I say letting him go

"Yea I flew in early so I could hang out with you since I know tomorrow mom and dad will hold me hostage." He says and we both laugh

We both sit down, "You will not believe how much work this stupid party has been."

He chuckles, "I kinda do, mom would not stop texting me all the details."

"All of them?" 

"Down to the kind of cake frosting." He says and we both laugh

"But seriously, how have you been? How's college?" I ask

"I'm good, great actually. College is amazing, I'm glad I get to enjoy it doing something I want to do." He says

"You plan on telling mom and dad anytime soon?" 

"Honestly, no. It's better that they don't know. They would freak if I told them what I was studying."

"Yea you're telling me. You know how hard it is wanting to branch out from the family business and your dickhead brother making it seem like he chose a great life choice." I say and he squints at me

"Not saying art isn't a great life choice, because trust me you're an amazing painter. It's just that with them both thinking you're a future doctor, it's hard to try and convince them that music isn't so bad." I add and he sighs

"I'm sorry Mel, I didn't mean to leave this mess behind and leave you stuck with it. I promise I will tell them before you leave for California." He says and I smile

"Thanks. Now catch me up."

A FEW HOURS LATER

Caleb and I spent a few hours hanging out and catching up. He knew about the call with the record label so he knew I was gonna head to Dani's. He said he was staying with an old high school friend for the night, so he didn't have to come home early.

I'm currently at Dani's, on the phone with a few of my future coworkers.

"So overall, what did you get?" Dominic, the head of the record label asks
