IN ANOTHER LIFE // Harry Styles

The One He Loved

Y/N had never thought one day this would happen — Harry Styles asked her to take him to her flat. Well, she didn't exactly expect to be his personal assistant but apparently, anything was possible nowadays.

"I want to go somewhere I could hide, just for now at least," he said as soon as they got out of the lift.

"Hide from whom?" She asked, and he answered with nothing but a single smile.

Y/N pulled out the key to her flat and opened the door, apologizing beforehand if her place was too messy. She and her flatmate Lisa weren't like pigs or anything, but the clothes on this man probably were worth more than everything in her flat combined. He obviously lived a much different life than this.

"Cool place!" Harry's comment surprised Y/N as they both entered her humble flat.

"Thanks...I think it's kind of terrible but—"

"It's cute, I like it." Harry shrugged with a tiny smirk on his face.

All of a sudden, her friend Lisa burst through the bathroom door, then instantly froze the very second she noticed there was a stranger in her shared flat. It shocked her even more to see it wasn't just any man.

It was Harry Styles.

Lisa secretly thanked God for letting her put on clothes before she got out of the shower. She would've dug herself a hole had she walked out here all naked in front of this man.

"Harry, this is my flatmate/best friend Lisa. Lisa, this is—"

"Harry Styles!" Lisa quickly walked over to Harry and shook his hand with too much energy it wowed him a little bit. However, it wasn't the first time he'd met a fan like her. It was just like any other day in the life of Harry Styles.

"Hi there, nice to meet you." He gave her a charming smile which never failed to make the girls swoon and melt at his feet. "I hope it's okay if I can stay here for a while."

"Oh stay! You can just move in, I don't mind at all!"

"Lisa!" Y/N nudged her friend who quickly covered her mouth, making Harry laugh.

"Thank you, ladies," he said to both of the girls.

"You don't need to thank us," replied Lisa. "I'm really sorry about your girlfriend, I used to be one of her fans but I unstanned her the moment I saw those pics!"

Harry's eyes turned to the floor awkwardly whereas Y/N was just utterly confused.

"Wait, what are you talking about?"

"Haven't you checked Twitter and Instagram this morning?" Lisa continued because she didn't see the look on their celebrity guest's face. "Lillie Xander was caught kissing another guy! That little cheater! I can't believe I was obses—"

"Lisa, enough," Y/N interrupted her older friend then quickly turned to her boss. "I'm really sorry, Lisa was just—"

"It's okay. I'm okay, thank you, Lisa...I just don't want to talk about this now."

"Okay, got it!" Lisa gave him two thumb-ups then took a step backward as soon as Y/N gave her a not so pleasant stare.

"I've got stuff to do in the bedroom. You two carry on with your conversation yeah?" She announced then quickly walked away.

When the door was finally closed and she was out of sigh, Y/N released the longest sigh ever, which revived the smile on Harry's face.

"I'm sorry about her, she can be overwhelming sometimes."
