Today's the Day (A Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 5- More

Max's POV

"Look Case.." I knew she was right. I had been so overprotective, especially her. I just hate to see her hurt and crying. I read all these articles about Harry and the other boys. He came across as a womanizer. I didn't want that for my sister, even if they just hungout today. I didn't want her to get her hopes up that they would have a future. They were going to meet and I couldn't stop that, but I could stop her from getting hurt. She told me this morning that those rumors aren't true but I didn't know who to really trust, the press or my sister.

"Can uhh.. He leave?" I wanted privacy especially since it was mostly about him. Harry started to walk out. "Absolutely not. Harry stay in here." Casey said quite sassy. "Alright. Well I'm sorry okay. I just don't want you to get hurt. I hate to see you cry. You're not only my sister but you're my best friend. I read up and researched this guy because I didn't want you to come in here and be disappointed. He's not going to be in New York for forever Case.He's apart of the biggest boyband in the world right now. I didn't want you to come here expecting him to fall in love with you. He's alos a guy and I know any guy, they can be all flirty one minute and then switch to the next girl. I didn't want this to be a waste of time. But, right before I walked in I heard you laugh. I haven't heard a genuine laugh out of you for a while. Ever since he left." 

Casey's POV

Of course. He had to pull that card. That was typical Max. Always having a reason. Always having to throw things like that into my face. "No. Don't. Don't you dare bring him into this." I was so close to tears. Harry looked very confused. You're probably confused too. Let me catch you up.

My neighborhood sucks. There are only like 4 year olds and college kids. There are no kids my age. One day, about a year ago, I was walking my two dogs, Scooby and Boss and I saw a moving truck turn down the street before mine. I immediately ran towards it and ran up to the house where it was parked. I got so excited. I saw a car pull up the driveway and me being my nosey self I wanted to know who it was and meet the family. As a woman got out of the car I saw an extremely attractive boy climb out of the door. He looked about my age so naturally I introduced myself, and within an hour I had his number.

He told me his name was Ryan and he was the same age as me, he had a younger sister named Gracie. He had a dog and a cat, Angel and Romo. He played lacrosse, baseball, basketball, soccer and he used to swim. We talked for hours. We eventually had to part our ways when my dogs couldn't take sitting outside anymore. Ryan gave me a quick hug which sent shivers up my spine. I knew this wouldn't be the last time I was seeing Ryan. Long story short, we became best of friends and ended up dating. Then he moved 1000 miles away to San Diego, CA. I still talk to him but him being so far away has made us quite distant which is very sad. He moved about 8 months ago and for about 4 months I didn't want to talk to another guy let alone date but I had already found out about the boys and I immediately fell in love with Harry. I still talk to Ryan, but not as much as we used to. I haven't actually talked to him in a about 3 weeks. I think thats the longest we've gone without talking. I was starting to let go of him and move on when, of course, Max had to bring him up again.

'Who's 'him' "? Harry asked so innocently. I told him the same story I just told you and he understood why I didn't want Max to bring him up. Strangley though when I was telling Harry about Ryan, Harry looked quite angry and kind of jealous. "Why did he leave?" Harry asked with slight annoyance. "Uhh his dad got a job out in Cali so his whole family had to relocate." I looked at Harry with a confusing look.  "Nevermind. Now lets get back to why Max is in here." I could tell Harry wanted to drop the subject as much as me.

 "Yeah, we should get back to that. Okay Max, continue." I said turning to Max. "Okay. I just don't you to be in the public eye as 'Harry's new girlfriend' or you being hated on because you're 3 years younger than him! I don't want you to be hurt or afraid. I'm sorry though because obvioulsy he makes you happy and that's all that should matter." "Thank you Max. I apperciate your concern but he does make me happy. Even before I met him he made me happy and now he's making this the best day of my life." I smiled at Harry and he smirked back. I guess he liked the fact that he made me happy.

Harry's POV

She was so cute. I made her happy. How adorable? I wasn't too fond of her brother though. He is kind of a prick and worse than most dads I meet. I needed Max to leave. I wanted to spend more time with Casey, but alone. I had already learned so much about her. I wanted to memorize eveything she told me. She has 2 dogs, Boss and Scooby, 3 brothers, 2 older including Max, and 1 younger. Her family and her live right outside of New York City and have been living there since Casey was 8. Her family is orginally from Baltimore, Maryland, I think. She told me all about her two best friends who were hanging with the rest of the lads. She informed me of their "plan" and how Morgan fancies Liam and Logan fancies Niall. 

I walked over to Max and politetly told him I would never hurt Casey and even though we aren't dating she already means a lot to me. She has become my inspiration. Everything she shared with me was so beautiful and made me want to be a better person. Casey told me that I was her inspration when she was going through some tough times. She told me that I helped her get through them. That meant so much to me. Not just the fact that she told me that but if anyone said that to me I would feel honored and   inspired. Max finally left and I was alone with Casey. It was a little after 3 and we had to be at the soundcheck around 4. The day was coming to an end so quickly. I needed more time. "Hey since we only have like another hour and I loved talking to you I was thinking we could hangout again. But instead maybe just us. Here's my number."
