All My Life: A Harry Styles Fan Fiction

Chapter 12

FLASHBACK TO LEEDS FESTIVAL

"Harry, I'm not sure if I can pretend to be in love with you for a whole weekend.." I sat nervously on my bed, surrounded by magazines on love and people in love. Harry had invited me, Emma and Shane to Leeds Festival this weekend as a extra long double date. The thing was, I'm a horrible actress and even though I really like Harry, I would most likely blow the whole thing in one second.

"I know, I know, who could be in love with a fool like me," Harry responds cheekily. "But, please try? Please?"

I was a sucker for a beggar.

"Fine." I groaned and flopped down on the bed. "Ugh, I'm gonna ruin this. And you know it."

"No, you won't! I have faith in you, Mads! Now get ready for a weekend of fun with your new boyfriend! Mwah!"

"Your pathetic, you know that?"

"Who cares?" And he hung up.

"We'll F*** you too!" I said to myself.

How can I do this? I guess I better get to work. And I grabbed a new issue of 'Seventeen' Magazine and started to pour through it.

TWO DAYS LATER

"BEEEEEP!" Harry's car horn awakened me from my thoughts. I shook my head and grabbed my bag.

I jogged down the stairs and swung the front door open.

"I'm coming! Hold on, Mr. Impatient!"

I could see Emma shaking her head and laughing at me, then turning to Shane, probably to give him a kiss.

Ugh. Couples.

Oh fabulous. Now I'm part of a couple.

"Mom, I'm leaving!"

I sprint into her office where she is working on a painting. This room is all about "serenity" as she likes to say. The walls are Robins Egg Blue, as it calms people. The cream colored furniture reminded me of the beach, and the original paintings added personality.

"Okay darling. Be safe. And don't do anything you will regret with Harry."

Of course I told my mom about Harry. But here's the catch. She doesn't know it's fake.

"Moooom. It's Harry were talking about."

"I know, I know. I just worry, that's all. Now have fun. I love you."

She returned to her painting so I reached Over and gave her a small peck on the cheek.

"Love you, too!"

Harry honked his horn again and I rolled my eyes. I opened the front door and walked as slow as a sloth to aggregate him even more.

"Madeline Elise Mary Richards! Could you be more slow, you pinhead?!"

"Well that was rude," I said as I climbed into his old SUV.

"Don't I have the best boyfriend, guys?" I turn around to Emma and Shane who are holding hands in the backseat. I rolled my eyes at them which causes a laugh from both of them.

"I'm sorry babe, just a little excited is all."

I grin at Harry and nod.

"Me too. Now lets go!"

•~•

"Are we there yet, Haz?" Emma pipes up from the backseat.

Her small voice awakens me from my dream about sleeping in a tent alone. With Harry.

To say the least, it was a good dream.

"We're almost... Ah here we are!"

I sit up straight and look out the window. Bunches of stages and tents are set up like little villages.

"Hurry up Harry! I want to get a good spot!"

I pull his arm, begging him to drive faster.

"And you call ME Mr. Impatient."

Harry beams at me and I roll my eyes.

"We're here!" I exclaim and hop out of the car.

"No that's fine Maddie! Don't help us with any of the stuff!" Harry yells out sarcastically.

"Okay!" I laugh and take off running to find a good place to set up camp.

•~•

"Hazza, it is very obvious to all of us that you have no clue how to set up a tent."

Harry's tent collapses for the sixth time and we all start laughing at him. As tears start to escape my eyes, Shane stands up and says,

"Me and Em are gonna go walk around for a bit."

I nod at them dismissively and they link hands and stroll off to explore.

"Harry, let me do that. I actually know how."

"I'd like to see you try."

I quickly set the tent up, much to his dismay.

"That was just lucky." Harry scowls at me, but his face softens.

"Mads we need to talk."

"Hm?"

"Well, we've been doing this fake relationship for a while now and it clearly isn't breaking Shane and Emily up."

I nod At Harry and stare at the tent, thinking about sleeping arrangements.

"Well," He continues. "I feel like it has become something more."

I stare at Harry with wide eyes and an open mouth.

I was about to say something like "I agree" when somebody gasps behind me.

My head jerks around to find Emma standing behind me, fire in her eyes.

"You WHAT?"

"Em, oh my gosh. It's not what it sounds like."

"Oh, I think it is! You're trying to break me and Shane up when we are finally happy! How could you?"

"The same way you made out with him when you thought I still liked him!" I stood up, anger pulsing through my veins. "Don't think you are always right about stuff, when you aren't! You did the same thing to me!"

She stared at me in disgust then then turned on her heel, and sprinted away.

"I hate you Maddie!" She yelled over her shoulder.

My best friend hates me. I sunk down to the grown and put my head in my hands.

"Hey," Harry said. "It's alright. She'll come around."

I look at him, tears streaming down my face. "You don't know that. We've never fought before. If it wasn't for your stupid idea, we would have be fine right now!"

"Really? You would have been fine? After she made out with the boy you said you thought you were In love with?!"

"You know what Harry? It's time for you to know."

"Know what?" He said slowly, backing away from me.

"I didn't care about Shane. I don't even like him. I like you. I'm in love with you."
