Prologue:
....I snorted and shook my head. “What makes you want to be friends with me? You didn’t answer.”
Harry shrugged. “We are two honest people in a school full of liars.”
I struggled to keep my laugh quiet. “What poem did you pull that from? Honest? You just told the librarian we were working on a project.”
Harry blew a raspberry. “Trying to make friends with you is a project. Why are you making this so hard for me, Hastings?”
"I’m picky about my friends. I have a very close group of friends, and none of them were assholes to me when we first met,” I said, taking a stab at him.
He chuckled. “If you all are so close, why are you in here with me and not in the lunchroom with them?” Fuck me for walking straight into that one. I didn’t have a response. Harry grabbed my hand and held it tightly as I tried to pull it away. “I think you’re the only person at this school who hasn’t lied to me yet. Maybe that’s why I want to be friends. Or maybe it’s because if I’m going to sit here and pretend like I’m better than everyone else, I want someone - a friend - to pretend with. I thought I could just hurry through this year alone and I can’t. I’m lonely. For some strange reason, I trust you,” Harry laughed. I laughed too, but it was more of a ‘yeah, right’ laugh than a ‘you’re so funny’ laugh. “I’m serious!”
"Mhmm. Okay, Styles." Finally able to pull my hand away, I closed my book and shoved it into my backpack.
"Look," He said, his eyes locked on my face as I stood. "I’ll prove it to you...."

Desperation - [h.s.] - Short Story {COMPLETED}
"You're not going to leave me, are you?" I asked as I looked ahead at nothing, focusing on feeling his breathing on the back of my neck. "Never," he whispered. "I'll be here until you get tired of me." He was holding me in his arms, with his back to the wall of my bedroom. Both of his arms were wrapped around me, and I could see the prominent cross tattoo on his right hand. I had had another attack, feeling like the world was caving in on me. As soon as I felt that familiar pang in the bottom of my stomach reaching up to my chest, I would call him. Almost immediately, I would hear a knock at my door. He would always drop what he was doing if he received a call from me, telling him that it's happening again. He would be on my front step, always, with a few pints of ice cream and comfort. He was my rock. He was my sedative. My cure.Complete
The Rich Kid ➝ h.s ( Sequel to TBK)
( DO NOT OPEN THIS BOOK UNLESS YOU HAVE READ THE FIRST ONE WHICH IS CALLED 'THE BLIND KID') (COVER BY @inkedtattoos :-)) " Can you take a picture with me, Harry? " I ask. I touch his arm, but he jerks away. I hadn't seen him in person in forever. I back up. His lips curl into a smirk, Ray Bans in his hand and a bottle of scotch in the other. " I'm sorta busy, " He spits, starting to walk away. I grab onto his arm again and he angrily turns around, throwing his arms in the air. " I have to go! Leave me the hell alone. You can get a picture later, " He shouts. The anger in his tone was apparent and his teeth were clenched together. I almost whimper, when he freezes. He was acting ridiculous. The sad thing was that this has been happening a lot. Everything was fine and then he started having sudden mood swings and then comes along him being rude to fans. ' Harry styles rude to fans ' made the cover of every newspaper and magazine in the world. He was screwed. He later earned respect back from people, when the whole thing blew over. I could tell he was relieved to say the least, but his ego has gotten bigger and bigger, just as his popularity grew; One directions popularity. " You sound familiar, " He whispers, gripping the bottle of scotch. I was scared it might break. " Do I know you? " He ask. I nod my head to myself, but don't say anything. He didn't need to know. I didn't want him to know. I hated that he was acting like this. The Harry I knew would never do this. I could feel a tear fall down my cheek and I turn to walk away. The air smells odd and the blinking lights twinkle in the distant. I keep walking even when I hear his voice calling for me. " Wait! Come back! " He yells. I keep walking.Complete![Affinity [h.s]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/260504368-256-k490793.jpg)
Affinity [h.s]
[COMPLETED] "I see you've become brave" He chuckles, his eyes dark. "I didn't have a choice," I say without a hint of emotion in my voice. His eyes stay still at me when after a certain point I look away for a moment as the situation was getting too intense. Our silent breathing filled the room as he stood there holding me to the door, his fingers digging deep in my skin. Hard but not enough to hurt. "You have to tell me what goes on in your mind when it comes to me. Why do you keep hurting me?" I look him in the eyes, questioning. He leans in making me doubt what he intended to do as I turn my head looking to my left. His forehead softly touches my temple and rests against it. For some reason, it calmed me down. I stand there not moving a bone, too scared perhaps. Slowly, he takes a few strands of hair tucking it behind my ear. I hear him take a deep breath, and slowly exhale through his mouth parting his lips. His warm breath made my skin moist as he slowly he leans further down to my ear and he touches it softly with his lips sending shivers down my body. "Trust me, you don't wanna know what goes on in my mind when it comes to you." //Grace Evans is the childhood friend of Harry Styles, a member of the world-famous band 'Affinity'.

NOT EDITED "I cannot look into those eyes, eyes that I have learned will judge you, eyes, that will make or break you, no, please no. I can't look into those eyes, because if I look you in the eye, every memory of us laughing together is erased, every memory of us cuddling within the warmth of the blankets, every memory of us staring into each other's eyes, will completely vanish. All I will see is your beautiful face that is no longer mine to admire, all I will see is the way your eyes crinkle in distaste of my presence, all I will see is how much you loathe me. I cannot look you in the eye because all I think about is how much I love you and how much wanna kiss you, I cannot look you in the eye because you do not love me like you used to and you do not want to feel my lips, I cannot look you in the eye because of how much I want to be with you, and how much I wish I had told you to stay, I want to look at you but, I cannot because all I can think about is the smile that remains no more upon your face, I want to kiss you but all I can think about is how much, you are going to laugh at me, if I did."

"What a pure soul you have, Angel." He said to me while softly moving his finger from my forehead to my jaw. "But why do I have this effect on you if you love him as much as you pretend?"
