Skylar's POV
Oh no. He asked about my life, what am I going to do. I have to answer him, other wise he will get supious. I guess I will just do what I normally do, lie about my past.
"Well, I've lived in London my whole life, my parents and I never really saw eye to eye so I moved out as soon as I turned 17. Anna is my best friend, she has been there for me threw everything." I said smoothly. When you have to lie all the time you learn a few tricks.
"What about guys? Have you ever had a boyfriend of any sort?" Harry said and took a sip of his drink again. Yes, I thought, you. But I obviously ccouldn't say that, he must be onto me. Or he's just curious. I fought with myself in my head.
"Um.. no not really, I have never had much luck with guys." I said truthfully. It was the truth, Harry was my first and only boyfriend. Before him I was awkward and no guy wanted anything to do with me. After him I had been too depressed to even try a relationship with someone.
"That's hard to believe." Harry said, my eyes grew wide, great he know I'm lying. "I mean, you're gorgeous." Harry finished. I let out the breath that I didn't know I had been holding.
"Thank you." I said and I felt the heat rise to my cheeks. Awesome, he made me blush. "So what about you Mr.Styles?" I said trying to change the subject, I hate lying to people.
"Well..there is this one girl.." Harry started. I suddenly felt a wave of sadness come over me. Wow, who was I kidding there was no way that Harry would actually like me, again. I shouldn't be suprised though he is gorgeous. "I'm totally kidding." He said with a smirk.
"Ugh! You jerk!" I said and playfully hit him. That was NOT funny, I just embarrassed myself in front of him.
"I know I know but you should have seen your face!" Harry said between laughs. I missed his laugh so much. Hearing it made me feel at home. Like I said before I never really had a good home life.
***FLASHBACK***
"Skylar!" I heard my mother calling me from downstairs.
"Yes mom?" I said timidly. She was hardly ever home and when she was, she was on my case about every little thing.
"Care to explain why the school just called me and told me that you failed your science midterm?" my mother said with her eyebrows raised.
"I umm..don't know..." I said slowly, afraid what she would do.
"OF COURSE YOU DON'T KNOW! YOU NEVER KNOW DO YOU SKYLAR? IT'S THAT BOY ISN'T IT? HARRY! HE'S THE REASON YOU ARE FAILING. WELL YOU CAN TELL HIM TO NEV-" My mother begun screaming at me. But I cut her off.
"NO! HOW DARE YOU BLAME THIS ON HARRY. HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. DON'T EVER BRING HIM INTO SOMETHING LIKE THIS EVER AGAIN. I HATE YOU!" I screamed in her face.
Suddenly I felt something sting my face, I looked up to see my mother's hand. She had slapped me. my mom had slapped me. I turned on my heel and ran upstairs into my room and locked the door.
***END FLASHBACK***
That was the first night I started, the day my mother hit me for the first time. I still do it to this day. No one knows, not Anna, Harry never found out and my parents sure as hell wouldn't care even if they knew. It was my own personal secret, a dark one at that.
"Skylar? Hello? Earth to Skylar?" Harry's voice snapped me out of my trance. I wonder how long I had been sitting there.
"Um, what? I'm sorry what were you saying?" I said apologetically.
"I was asking if you maybe wanted to go meet the boys.." Harry said, seeming nervous.
"Of course! But can we maybe go by and get Anna? It's her life goal to meet all of you." I said, even if Harry and I didn't work out maybe Anna and Niall could have something. Plus I'm pretty sure if I helped Anna achieve her "life goal" that she would do the dishes for like a month.
"Sounds great! Come on." Harry said as he walked to his car. We both climbed in, it was quiet on the ride back to my house. It wasn't an awkward silence, it was comfortable one. It gave me time to think over how I was going to tell Anna that she was going to get to meet the rest of idols without her going into her having a heart attack. We pulled up into my familiar driveway and got out.
Once I reached the door I took out my keys to unlock the door. But before I could put the key in the hole the door flung open, reveling none other than, Anna.
"Stalking me much?" I asked her as Harry and I walked into the house.
"What? I had to see if you guys were gonna kiss or not." Anna said smiling. I blushed then hit her on the shoulder. Harry just stood there smiling.
"Ouch! That actually hurt!" She said definitively.
"It's okay, once I tell you why we came back you will forgive me." I said trying to sound sincere.
"Well don't make me wait five years, why did you come back?" Anna said, told you, drama queen. But I gotta love her.
"Promise you won't freak out?" She nodded. "Or have a heart attack?" she nodded again. "Or faint?"
"Oh just get on with it!" Anna said, becoming impatient.
"Okay..you get to meet the rest of One Direction!" I said excitedly.
"OMG ARE YOU KIDDING? YOU BETTER NOT BE KIDDING! IS SHE KIDDING?" Anna said turning to Harry.
"Afraid not, love. You get to meet them all." Harry said giving her a big smile.
"OH MY GOSH THIS IS GREAT! But wait what am I gonna wear?" Anna said and soon she disappeared into her room, probably to find a new outfit. That girl loves clothes.
"Well there's no telling how long that will take, want to go sit in living room?" I asked Harry.
"To the living room!" Harry said pretending to fly there. Gosh, he's so adorable.
Harry's POV
Skylar is so adorable.
