ARIANNAS POV

Harry pushes the door, walking in with me following behind.

"What are you doing here?" she asks, closing the door.

"Just to ask some questions." I shrug, sitting back on the couch.

"About what?" she questions, sitting on a chair.

"You, Kyle." Harry tells her.

"Kyle is no longer with us, you both know that." Meredith sadly smiles but I know its just forced.

"Well thats not the case Meredith." I sneer.

"Oh honey, you must have me mistaken, my name is Debbie, dont you remember?" she asks.

"Yes, Debbie is the name youve been going by for some while now, but we all know your real name is Meredith." I say. 

She chuckles, looking down at the floor. "You are most definetely mistaken."

I pull only the one sheet out of my bag, handing it over to her. 

"Oh dont think I didnt do my research." I shake my head.

Meredith sighs, putting the paper down on the coffee table. "Fine, I faked my identity all these years."

"You didnt have to lie about it." Harry mumbles.

"I did if it was to protect my daughter." she raises her voice, her voice lowering as she says daughter.

"Or your son." I shrug.

"Arianna, Kyle died." Meredith informs me.

"And how do we know thats also not a lie?" Harry asks. "You lied about who you were, and you just lied straight to our faces after we confronted you about your intentity, how do we know youre not lying about this?"

"Because I'm not." she snaps. "I know its hard to lose someone but just get over it. Kyle is gone and there isnt anything you both can do about it."

"Thank you for your time, but we're going to leave." Harry nods, pulling me up with him. "We have a flight to catch early in the morning, since there isnt really anything here." he lies.

We both walk out of the apartment, and downstairs.

"She is so lying." Harry laughs as we get into the cab.

"I dont even know anymore." I groan.

"Did you hear her voice, or look at her? She was lying right through her teeth." Harry tells me.

"Harry, what if we came for nothing? I'm starting to think that Kyle is really dead." I shake my head, looking out the window. The driver pulls up in front of the hotel and Harry pays him before we get out.

"We dont know that for sure." Harry says.

"How are you so positive?" I question him.

"Because I saw a shirt that looked like one Kyle had in the apartment." Harry tells me.

"She probably just kept it Harry. It doesnt mean anything." I shrug.

'We'll just have to wait and see." Harry smirks.

"Harry where are we going?" I groan as he pulls on my arm. 

"You'll see soon enough." he tells me, pushing me into the cab.

"Where to?" the driver asks. Harry moves forward, telling the driver something. "Got it." he nods.

"Why cant you just tell me?" I ask.

"Because I wanna prove you wrong." he shrugs. Soon enough, we stop in front of the apartment building.

"Harry." I groan. 

"Arianna." he mimicks me.

"I dont want to go, theres no use." I tell him as he walk inside.

"Or maybe there is." he smiles.

"Stop being so confident about everything." I roll my eyes. He smacks my bum while walking into the elevator and I roll my eyes again.

"Wait." he tells me. Minutes later he returns with a key card. "Just in case they dont let us in." he smirks.

"Youre so sneaky." I tell him and he shrugs as he presses the button to the floor.

"Meredith is at work right now, so that gives us the chance to look around." Harry informs me.

We make it to the floor and I take a deep breath.

"Oh calm down." Harry rolls his eyes, grabbing my hand as we walk down the hall.

When we are standing in front of the door, Harry takes a deep breath.

"Calm down." I imitate him. He chuckles, raising his hand to knock. He knocks a few times, and all we hear is shuffliing behind the door.

"I thought she was at work." Harry mumbles, confused.

"We can hear you, just open the door!" I yell but make my voice lower. The shuffling continues. "We have a key card, either you open the door or we just get in."

I hear someone come close by the door so me and Harry move out of the view from the peephole.

'Open the door, I know youre in there!" Harry yells.

The door is suddenly swung open and my eyes widen, and my jaw drops.

"Oh my god." I whisper. "Holy shit, Kyle!" I smile, wrapping my arms around him.

"How'd you guys find me?" he asks.

"Thanks, no hey how are you? Or how have you been?" Harry asks.

"Sorry, I'm just shocked that you guys found me, or well my moms apartment." he shrugs, motioning us inside.

"It was a lot of work, but I did it. I found you." I smile.

"I miss everyone so much." Kyle says, sitting down on the loveseat.

"Why didnt you come back?" I ask.

"I couldnt, my mom wouldnt let me because it would put me in danger again." he rolls his eyes, leaning back. I sit on the couch I sat on yesterday, waiting for him to continue.

"My mom had me here, in this apartment for so long. Just a few months ago she let me go out, and now I have a girlfriend." Kyle smiles.

"Aw, I'm so happy for you." I smile. "Whats her name?"

"Cece." Kyle tells us.

"How long have you both been dating?" Harry asks.

"About five months. I met her at this bar when I snuck out once." he shrugs. "Her friends had ditched her, just like mine had did and we just started talking and turned out we had a lot in common so I guess we just clicked." 

"You seem happy." I smile.

"I really am." Kyle half smiles, looking down.

"So-"

"What are you doing here?!" Merediths voice cuts Harry off.

"We came to see you, but Kyle opened the door." Harry lies.

"Kyle you just messed up everything!" she yells.

"No you messed up everything when you brought me here, away from all my friends!" he shouts back, getting up.

"It was for your own good." she tells him, closing the door.

"Bullshit." he spits.

Harry and I just sit thre, knowing something is going to happen soon..
