Two Weeks - h.s.

SEQUEL TO ONE NIGHT

Hoping to provide their daughter with some sense of normalcy, Mae agrees to spend two weeks in Italy with Harry Styles on their first official family holiday.

His face twisted, wounded, and enraged. "You're a fucking liar, Mae Collins."

He turned on his heel, storming out so hard the door rattled as it slammed shut behind him. And I just watched him go.
