Chapter 2

"Um...hi. You're Marissa, right?" I swore that I felt my heart stop. "....Uhh......yeah." It felt like nobody else was there in that moment. Just me and Harry. I snapped out of it when he grabbed my hand and started pushing through the crowd. When we were at the doors and got through the crowd, Harry started running to his Land Rover with his hand still in mine. "Get in, I'll get your bags." I just nodded and got in the car, but I got in on the wrong side. I forgot that the steering wheel was on the other side in England. I quickly got out hoping that Harry wouldnt see me and ran to the other side. But with my luck, he saw me and I was embarrassed."I forgot to tell you to go on the other side." "It's fine" I got in on the other side and started thinking of what to say to Harry. I started panicking and looked out the window. I heard the other door open and then close. I just kept staring out the window praying that he wouldn't say anything. Because I knew that I opened my mouth to talk to him I would stutter or say something stupid and uncontrollably fangirl. We started moving. "So, what state are to from again?" I faced forwards quickly and said, "New York" in a soft voice. I couldn't look at him or else I would blush. It would be weird for me to blush at my cousin. "Oh...what happened that you have to move in with us? Not that I'm complaining....." I cleared my voice trying not to cry and looked down. "Well you see...my dad left my mom because he said that she was fat and crap like that. I tried to tell my mom that she wasn't fat because she wasn't, but she didn't believe me." I started crying hysterically. I felt Harry's hand on my back and I looked at him. "So, she started starving herself and I tried to make sure she ate. But I failed! She got anorexia..." Harry pulled over. "Shh...it's ok. I'm sorry for asking" he said hugging me. "It's ok.....She was anorexic and after starving herself for a while. I lost her. I didn't care if she looked like a frickin' elephant or a walking skeleton. I would still love her. I DONT GET WHY SHE DIDN'T UNDERSTAND!!! I FAILED!" I raised my voice getting angry at myself. Harry pulled away from me and said, "I'm sorry Marissa. And you're not a failure, look at where you are right now. Your mom is in a better place now and I'm sure that she still loves you." He gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek. I picked my head up and wiped away my tears. Harry put on the radio and got back on the road. I tried to think positively like how I was going to be able to meet my favorite band in the world and how my cousin is the Harry Styles. On the radio, What Makes You Beautiful came on and Harry sang along. I didn't sing knowing that my voice would sound like a dying walrus compared to his. During his solo I looked at him and I blushed. I just couldn't handle how his lips formed while he sang or just how beautiful his face is. After the song I started humming Valerie, my favorite Louis Tomlinson cover. "You like Valerie, huh?" Harry asked. "Yeah, I love it!" "I know someone who loves that song too-" "I know, Louis!" I cut him off and screamed. "Sorry." I apologized. "So....you like Louis?" I blushed, "yeah." "You guys should get together. You would make a cute couple." I smiled and blushed again, "but isn't he dating Eleanor?" "They just called it off, they got into a big argument." "Aw....is Louis ok?" "Well, he's been a bit snappy. I think he needs someone. That person could be you." He elbowed me playfully. I had a feeling that Harry would be a good housemate and a good cousin. "I wish..." "Hey, you never know." I smiled again. We got to Harry's flat and it was huge! "Wow. This is where I'll be living for the rest of my life?" "Well, until you move in with Louis." "Shut up." We got out of the car and Harry got my bags. We walked up to the door and he opened it. I took one step inside and was amazed. "This place is beautiful!" "Thanks." Harry put my bags by the stairs. "Come here." He took my hand and took me on a tour of the first floor of the house. Lastly was the kitchen, "Surprise!" I heard. The boys popped up from behind the counter. I couldn't breathe and my heart sped up. "Marissa, are you ok?" I heard Harry say in a faint voice. Everything suddenly got blurry and I started to fall backwards.
