Chapter 3

Harry POV

The next day I wake up to an empty house, I guess mum and Robin are grocery shopping and Gemma is still sleeping. 

As I get myself a bowl I see there is no cereal in the house. In fact, there is nothing to eat at all.

Just when I'm about to call mum when she texts me.

Robin and I are at the mall. We'll get something to eat tonight, until then you just have to see. Dinner at 6pm, be home by then.

Great, absolutely perfect. I'll just have to starve till 6pm. I check the time to see that it's only 9am. There is no food and I have no money. Great, thank you mum.

I decide to get a shower, I love showers, they clear my head. I let the warm water run over my body and I let the thoughts go, I think about everything and nothing.

After a while, when I'm singing a song, Gemma knocks on the door and tells me to be quiet. I can't help but laugh at her tired morning voice and the idea of her waking up because I was singing. 

I shut my mouth and get out of the shower.

I get dressed and yell, "Gemma! I'm going out to take a walk! See you later!" 

I hear her mumble something as I walk out the door.

When I look at my phone and see that it's almost 11am. Have I really been walking for two hours? I guess so. 

I start making my way back to the house but I can't seem to find it, great now I'm lost too. This day couldn't get any worse. Why did I even go for a walk? 

 Just as I'm about to ring Gemma I hear two girls giggle, they sound familiar. I've heard them before. I walk towards the sound and I see three girls playing in a small play garden. 

When I come closer I hear one of the girls talking to the other. 

"Isn't that Harry? What is he doing here?", I'm now close enough to say something. 

"Hey, um yeah it's me, Harry. I went for a walk this morning and now I'm kinda lost actually. I can't find my house anymore." 

They start laughing and I understand why, I'm really stupid, people told me that enough times, I don't need them to confirm it. 

I decide to just walk away since they're still laughing, I thought they could be my friends but they keep laughing at me. 

"Hey Harry don't leave, we could take you home. It's normal to be lost when you just moved here, it still happens to Fizzy. Don't tell her I said that, by the way", Lottie says. 

"Really? I thought you were laughing at me and I don't want any more of that. I've been bullied enough throughout my life, I just want to start over."

She looks at me like I said something weird, "You? Being bullied? But why? You're such a nice person?"

I didn't expect her to say that, I don't really know what to say now so I just shrug. She glances at me before she tells Daisy and Phoebe to come because they're going home now. 

"Let's go, Styles. You have one more family member to meet", she says as Daisy and Phoebe both take one of her hands.

I'm glad she didn't ask any more questions about me being bullied.
