The Forced Arrangement [Harry Styles]

7: Why Do I Care?

Chapter 7:

Harry POV:

I felt my cell phone vibrating in my jeans pocket. I slid my hand in the pocket and took it out and read the ID caller.

"Who is it?" Louis asked me.

I looked up to meet his curious gaze.

"Ashley," I said timidly.

He smiled the half-smile and I rolled my eyes.

"Go on," he said, gesturing with his hands. "Answer it!"

"What is up with you?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes confused.

I walked away and answered the call.

'Yeah?' I asked her.

'Hey, can I ask you for a favour?' she asked me and I heard her footsteps echoing through the flat's corridor.

'Um, sure?' I asked, raising my eyebrows.

'My car went down and I need someone to take me to the recording studio, please!?' she whined and I rolled my eyes.

'Can't you call Colin?' I asked her irritated.

'He's out of town douche bag!' she said and I gasped.

'Oh am I!?' I said, my voice rising.

Louis cleared his throat and I glared at him and he shrugged.

'Yes! You are! I have told you that you are for the last 5 months!' she yelled and I narrowed my eyes at her.

'Then you better see who's coming for you!' I yelled back and cut off the line.

I walked back towards Louis and flopped down on the sofa and Louis and Eleanor's apartment, El was currently at work.

"What's wrong Styles?" 

"She tells me I'm a douche and expects me to drive her to the recording studio!" I said, waving my hands in the air.

He sighed and rolled his eyes.

"You still should go and take her to the recording studios after last time," he said and I looked at him with my eyes wide.

"Last time?!" I asked him confused.

"Yeah, when you got drunk and broke something in her flat, another yet important thing that meant apparently her world to her and you broke it," he explained.

I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms over my chest.

"I was drunk for Heaven's sake!" I protested. 

"Drunk or not, you still know what you're doing unless your drink was drugged, which I doubt since you were in your room," Louis said quietly and I huffed.

"I hate it when you start talking wisely," I said and he chuckled and extended his arms behind me and threw me something. "OW!"

"Go!" he said.

I breathed out heavily, stood up and walked towards the door.

"Hey Lou," I said before closing the door. "Thanks."

He shrugged and I chuckled.

"You coming back?" he yelled right before closing the door.

"Can't, Gemma coming to town for the week," I said and he nodded and I closed the door, went down the stairs and walked towards my Range Rover.

I started the ignition and dialed Ashley's number and put it on loudspeaker and drove.

'What now Styles?' she asked sounding irritated.
