Let the light in h.s

22 year old Maddie has quite an ordinary life, or so we think she does. She meets Harry styles at a bar after her best friend Gemma introduces them and they become quite close but has she met him before? And is she more involved in his lifestyle than any of them know?

My heart stops, and I feel the blood drain from my face as her words hit me like a punch to the gut.

I can't breathe.

I can't think.

It was her.

It was Maddie.

The girl I held in my arms, the girl I tried so desperately to save. She's sitting right in front of me now, alive, breathing... but I had no idea. For five years, I had no idea.

I reach for her hands, holding them tightly, trying to steady myself, trying to steady us.

"Maddie..." I choke on her name. "It was you. It was you, wasn't it?"
