Enchanted (Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 16: Stir

I ran after my brother and screamed, "Wait!!"

Harry seemed confused yet he ran after me.

"Zack!!" I yelled my brother's name.

He stopped and looked back at me with an angry look.

"Get away from me." He spat.

I was taken aback by his words.

"Zack... Listen." I pleaded.

"No. After you made my life the 'unfair' way before? There's no way I'm going to listen!" He yelled and continued walking in a fast pace.

"Zack we need to talk!!" I shouted chasing him.

He ignored me and ran as fast as he can.

"Alison." Harry said as he gripped on my elbow.

"Harry.. I.. I have to talk to him.." I said and I can feel my eyes stinging.

"Is he your brother?" He asked.

"Yes." I said sniffing.

"Can you tell me what happened?" He said leading me back to my mom's car.

I nodded but hesitate to enter the car.

Harry gave me a confused look.

I sighed and said," I need to.. T-talk to him." My voice cracked.

"Maybe next time." He said patting my back.

I just can't stand the thought of losing a brother and a father. I need to make things right before it's too late.

"N-no Harry... I need to talk to him. Right now." I pleaded.

He nodded in understanding.

We walked down the street Zack went awhile ago.

"Do you think we can still find him?" I asked Harry nervously.

"Maybe or maybe not." He answered.

*FLASHBACK*

Me at the age of eleven and Zack at the age of thirteen were happily playing a game called Monopoly.

"Hoho looks like I'm going to be rich!" He said as he tossed the dice.

"Well not too fast." As I playfully flipped the monopoly board upside down.

"What the fuck?!" He screamed as he punched my shoulder.

"Ow! Mom! Zack punched me!" I sobbed running towards the kitchen.

"What do you think you're doing?!" My mom said grabbing the belt as she beat Zack simultaneously.

I giggled as I watch him drown in pain.

*FLASHBACK ENDS*

That's not the only thing I did to Zack.. There's thousands to mention.. I know, I know, I'm an asshole before when I was a child. I only do things for fun and I think I got that trait from my dad..

I also know those things were back from the past but it kinda made Zack cold towards me and plus, he made an invisible barricade in able for me not to reach him.

Zack is already 21 right now and I know he's matured enough to understand and forgive my immature behaviors back then. But these hope of him forgiving me left a huge doubt on my mind.

"Alison? Are you okay?" Harry asked.

"Yeah..." I lied.

"You seem to be deep in thought." He murmured.

"Well... Umm.. Yeah." I give in.

Harry looked at me and gave me a small smile.

"What is it?" He asked as he put both of his hands down his pocket.

"Well.. You know.. Flashbacks." I replied.

"Is it that bad?"

"Yeah.. I felt guilty about the things I did before." I sighed.

He nodded as he run his palm through his curly hair.

"There he is." He pointed.

I looked at the direction he pointed and I saw Zack sitting and drinking his Starbucks coffee.

The sight of him made me feel weak on the knees...

I continued to walk towards him as Zack's gaze met mine.

His calm face turned into a frown as he saw me.

"Zack.." I began as I bite my cheek to restrain myself from crying.

"What?" He snapped.

"I'm sorry." I said.

He took a deep breath and said," Go away."

"I know what I did before is plain stupid.. Just.. Please.. Forgive me." I said.

Harry patted my back trying to comfort me.

"I better go." He said standing up walking past me.

"Please.." I begged as I grabbed his wrist.

He removed my hand as if I'm a pest and walked away.

I sighed and tears started streaming down my face.

"At least you tried." Harry said.

I nodded and hugged him.

He kinda felt tense when I hugged him but was calm afterwards.

"Let's go?" I said wiping my tears.

"Yeah." He said as he dig up the keys inside his pocket.

......

When we arrived at my mom's house, I quickly went inside to find her.

She would be surprised about the news that i'm about to tell her.

I saw her sitting on her floral couch as she was reading her newspaper.

"Hey mom." I said.

She looked at my direction and gave me a worried look,"So.. Did you find him?"

I nodded.

"What happened?" She asked putting the newspaper on a table.

"Well..." I didn't know where to start.

Should I start with the fact that my dad is with someone else? Or the answers to the questions I received?

No... I'm not going to mention the first option. I don't want to see my mom being broken hearted because of my douche dad.

"I kinda know a few answers to your questions.. To where or how did he found our address, why'd he hurt you all of the sudden etcetera." I said.

.....

After I explained everything to her,

Her expressions are confused.

"He did all of this for fun? We have to call the cops. Your father is a psycho!" She screamed.

I looked down tapping my feet.

"I guess you're right." I sighed.

"He deserve it anyway." My mom added as she sat on the sofa running a palm through her silky brunette hair.

She looked at the window and back at me.

"So... How are you? I mean your new school and stuff." She asked.

"It was fine." I assured.

"That sounds really great. I'm sorry sweetie if I disturbed you." She said.

"No it's fine. I'm glad I've seen you again after a long time." I said.

She smiled and looked outside the window.
