"Er..." began Harry, choosing his words carefully. "She's... my ex." he finally spat out. Valerie stared at him blankly. Not happy, not mad, and not sad... Just blank.

"Oh." she said simply. "That's all?" 

"Well..." Harry scratched the back of his neck nervously. "No. She's also...er... my sister." he said honestly. Valerie froze.

"W-What?" she said, stunned. 

"But she's not really my sister! Ya know... Like how Zoya and Danielle aren't my biological sisters." he explained. Valerie nodded, all of it making more sense now. 

"So I guess dating your siblings is a thing in this family." said Valerie, forcing a chuckle. Harry frowned slightly, knowing she wasn't her usual self. 

"Val, we don't date anymore. The only reason you haven't met her before is that she...ran away. When she realized that I had a thing for a human, she took off." he tried to say it gently, but that was hard when he was breaking it to his girlfriend that his sister ran away because of her. Valerie's face fell.

"Harry, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean-" Harry chuckled.

"Val, no need to apologize. We didn't talk after we broke up anyways. She didn't talk to any of us. Kinda a messy breakup...." Valerie forced a smile, trying to show him that she was okay...even though she wasn't. Harry seemed to notice because his frown deepened. He put his hands on her shoulders. "It's nothing. The whole family isn't too fond of her. After we called it quits, it's like she transformed into a different person. Now she's such a-" Valerie cut off Harry before he said something that he'd regret.

"Harry, I'm fine. It's just...I'm sorry that she ran away because of me." she hesitated before adding, "But what did she mean by 'or else'?" Harry stiffened, all of a sudden his eyes drifting to the ground beneath him. 

"What?" he said, pretending not to have a clue. 

"Harry, you know. You cut her off before she could finish." she said sternly, obviously not at all convinced by his clueless expresion. Harry chewed on his bottom lip worriedly, a habit from Zayn. 

"I dunno..." he shrugged, pretending to oblivious to Valerie's glare that she was giving him. 

"Yes you do." she said shortly. Harry had forgotten how stubborn she was. He had remembered the first time she came to his house, when he had told her, "You're so damn stubborn." Even in his current situation, the memory of it brought a small grin onto his face. He turned up his face, so that they were eye to eye.

"It doesn't matter, love. Because whatever it was, it's not gonna happen to you, as long as I'm by your side." he said with a warm smile and a wink. At those words, she couldn't help but break into a small smile. 

"You have a way with words, Styles." she joked, liking arms with him, forgetting what they were arguing about as he flashed her those irresistable dimples. Phew, thought Harry, as the 'or else' seemed to vanish from Valerie's train of thought. Valerie had no clue as to what Emily was going to say after, and that's just the way he wanted to keep it.
