Charlotte's P.O.V

“I’m going to the studio to figure out the chords for the song.” I said as I walked past Grace in the kitchen.

“Ok but remember after your date with Harry you have to hurry back so we can get ready for the VMA’s tonight and then we leave tomorrow.” She said.

“I know mom.” I replied which got a tongue stuck out at me. I laughed and went to the music studio. When I got in I turned my phone on silent then went and sat down at the piano. I began to mess around until I felt my creative flow and then I began. As I was finishing up the music to go with the lyrics I heard someone clap from behind me. I turned and saw Harry and I began to smile.

“That’s was great Lotts, but are you ready for date morning and then VMA’s with your truly later?” Harry asked me.

“Yup. Let me go get my purse and I’ll meet you in the living room.” I said as we walked out. I hurried and grabbed my purse and then we left.

“So Mr. Styles where are you taking me?” I asked as we were walking. I went to get in the car but he pulled me back on the sidewalk.

“I’m hoping you don’t mind but I want to walk to where we’re going.” He said taking hold of my hand. I smiled up at him as he smiled down at me.

“That’s not a problem, but where are we going?” I asked.

“It’s a secret but I think you’ll love it.” he replied. We continued to walk while joking and telling each other about our lives.

“So do you have any siblings?” Harry asked me.

“Yeah I had four. Two big brothers and a little sister.” I said my mood dropping a little bit.

“That’s only three…you said you had four.” Harry said looking at me. I took my attention from him to straight ahead.

“I did have a big sister but she passed away.” I said looking down at my feet. I continued to walk but Harry stopped so I did also. He pulled me into a hug.

“How?” he asked as he rested his head on the top of mine.

“Her husband was abusive and well one day when she tried to get away with the kids he took things too far.” I said beginning to cry into his chest. He stepped back from me and wiped away my tears.

“I’m sorry I even brought it up Lotts.” He said as we continued to walk.

“It’s fine. You would have found out anyways.” I replied looking up at him. The rest of the walk we walked holding hands but this time we were silent. Harry stopped in front of a church and I gave him a confused look.

“Trust me you’ll love it.” he said leading me in. I followed him to the basement. When we got down there I saw a bunch of kids with their parents.

“Aww they are adorable.” I said cooing over the kids.

“I know. So I was thinking that you and I could watch them while their parents are getting help finding jobs.” Harry said looking at me hopefully.

“Oh my gosh yes!” I said hugging him. I absolutely loved kids. If I didn’t have such a busy schedule I would have my nephews and niece but since I do my oldest brother and his wife are raising them. a man in a suit walked over to us.

“You must be Harry.” He said holding his hand. Harry shook it.

“Yes and this is my friend Charlotte.” He said introducing me. I shook his hand also.

“So basically you just have to watch them for three hours. The babies get fed and then laid down for their naps in an hour. That’s basically all you need to know. None of them are allergic to anything so you’re good.” He said before leaving.

“Ready to do this?” Harry asked me.

“Of course lets do this!” I said as we began to approach the kids. I picked up a baby, which looked to be 8 months, who had crawled over to me. When I picked her up and began to babel to me so I started to talk to her. I heard Harry chuckle as he took his phone out. I ignored him and continued to talk to the baby.

“Well I see you already have a new best friend. Lets go see the others.” Harry said. I nodded my head. For the next two hours we spent it playing and getting to know the kids. A couple of them were fans of both of us. When their parents came back we left also.


“I hope you don’t think that was a complete crap date.” Harry said.

“I was awesome. I loved it, but I am kind of hungry.” I said. Harry looked at the time on his phone.

“Well we have four hours before we have to start getting ready for the VMA’s so do you want to get something and bring it back to my hotel and watch a movie or something?” he asked me.

“I would love that! How about O’Charleys?” I asked as we walked back to my house to get his car.

“Sounds good.” He said. The walk back to my house went quicker than the walk to the church. We got in his car and “A Drop in the Ocean” by Ron Pope came most Harry. Harry began to quietly sing along and so did I. by the time the song finished we were both singing full force and had arrived at O’Charley’s. Harry asked me what I wanted then told me he would be right back. As I was waiting for him to come back my brother called me.

“Hey sis can you watch Chris and Kylie tonight?” my brother Chase asked me.

“I would love to but I have the VMA’s tonight and I’m up for an award but I can get them from mom and dad afterwards.” I replied as Harry got in the car. He put our food in the back and then got in the driver’s seat.

“That’s fine. It’s just that Clair and I are going out of town for a week.” He said.

“Wait would I have to watch them the whole week?” I asked getting worried.

“If you could that would be great.” He said. I face palmed and moved my bangs out of my face.

“I leave for London tomorrow. I can bring them with me for a week and maybe fly Charlie out to get them.” I said thinking of a quick fix.

“You don’t have to if you don’t want to.” Chase said.

“It’s no problem really. I’ll call Charlie later and tell him the plan. Talk to you later bubbs. Love ya!” I said before hanging up.

“So who’s coming to London with us?” Harry asked making a left.

“My niece and nephew. My nephew is five and my niece is three.” I said smiling.

“I can’t wait to meet them. Do you want to go in back or front?” Harry asked me.

“Well do you want to be seen or not Styles?” I asked. He shrugged his shoulders and then we both decided to go in the back to avoid the hassle of fans. When we go to the room he and the boys are sharing I saw Niall and Zayn sitting on the couch.

“Hey Harry. Oh hey Charlotte!” Zayn said when he saw us.

“Hi Zayn.” I said. Harry led me to his room and he set a blanket on the floor so we could have an indoor picnic. After we ate we watched movies and around 5 Harry took me back to mine and Grace’s house.

“Thanks Harry. I had fun today.” I said as I climbed out of the car.

“I did too. I’ll see you later short stuff.” He said winking at me.

“Ok you are only ten inches taller than me.” I said crossing my arms.

“But those ten inches make a big difference babe. See you later.” He said as I closed the car door. When I walked inside I hurried and got changed and did my hair. When I walked down stairs I saw Niall and Grace cuddling while the rest except for Harry were sitting on the ground looking at their phones.

“Hey where’s Harry?” I asked moving my bangs out of my face.

“He had a quick meeting with management, but he’s meeting us there so lets get going.” Louis said putting his phone in his pocket. I nodded my head and we all walked out to the limo waiting for us. When we got there we all walked the red carpet together and stopped to take pictures. Grace and Niall got stopped to talk about their relationship so the rest of us walked in and found our seats.

When we go to our seats Harry was holding Kendal Jenner’s hand and she was where I was supposed to me sitting. The boys and I all shared a confused look. Liam cleared his throat to get Harry’s attention.

“What’s going on here mate?” Zayn asked sitting down.

“This is Kendal and we are kind of dating.” Harry said trying to get me to make eye contact with him but I avoided his eyes at all cost. Did he just string me along into believing him? Were they dating the whole time? Why does my heart feel like it was put in a blender?

“Hey why aren’t you sitting?” Grace asked as she and Niall took their seats.

“There isn’t any room. I’m going to go find our original spots. See you later guys.” I said waving and walking away. As I was walking away a tear feel but I quickly wiped it away before anyone noticed. When I got to our seats I sat alone and didn’t talk to anyone.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
It’s halfway through the show and One Direction are going to perform then present the award to the winner of mine and Grace’s category. As the music for “Diana” came on. I sat up in my seat. When Liam began to sing I also began to cry because this was my favorite song from Midnight Memories. While Harry was singing he was looking directly at me but I tried to ignore him. When it was over the crowd went wild.

“Thank you guys! It’s time to give some people with a little les people some attention.” Niall said into the mic. The nominees’ video began to play and I smiled when I saw mine and Grace’s faces come on the screen. Once the video finished Liam was handed an envelope.

“Your winner is…..” he began as he opened it.

“You winners are the Outcasts!” Harry said into the mic. I stood up and both Grace and I met at the steps to walk up. We gave each other a hug and then began to walk up. When we go to the top we gave each of the boy’s hugs and then they stepped back.

“Wow this is crazy! I can’t believe we won!” Grace said.

“Truly amazing! We would love to thank our management, our families, our friends, and mostly our fans! You guys are amazing and we owe it all to you.” I said smiling. We then walked off stage with the boys. When we were back stage Harry tried to give me a hug but I dodged it.

“What’s going on Lotts?” Harry asked with a hurt expression.

“Nothing. Don’t you have to get back to Kendal?” I asked before I walked away.

Harry’s P.O.V
“Nothing. Don’t you have to get back to Kendal?” she asked before walking away. I totally face palmed.

“What the heck were you doing leading her on?” Grace asked clearly not pleased with me.

“I truly did and still like her but management is making me date Kendal. We both aren’t into it and well Kendal has her eye on someone else also. I can’t tell Lotts and I wasn’t even supposed to tell you.” I said beginning to panic.

“Well if you don’t tell her then you’re screwed.” Louis said as we began to walk back to our seats.

“I know but no matter how much I want to I can’t tell her.” I said as we sat down.

“Tell who what?” Kendal asked me.

“Remember the girl I told you that I’m falling for?” I asked and she nodded her head as a reply. “Well she wants nothing to do with me since it seems I was leading her on.” I said.

“Oh my gosh! I already told Aaron about it and he understands. I’m sure if you explain it to her so will she.” Kendal said smiling at me giving me encouragement.

“She won’t even look at me though.” I said looking over at her. She was sitting next to an empty seat and the isle so she wasn’t interacting with anyone.

“Go over there.” Niall said nudging me. I looked at Grace to see if it would be the right thing to do and she nodded her head. I stood up and walked over to Charlotte.

“Is that seat open?” I asked pointing to the seat next to her and she didn’t reply, so I just sat down anyways.

“Are you going to ignore me? Did you forget we will be living together for a while and then touring?” I asked her.

“No how could I forget?” she replied bitterly.

“Why aren’t you talking to me Lotts?” I asked her.

“My name is Charlotte and maybe because you had a girlfriend but you led me on anyways.” She replied crossing her arms. As I went to speak again she stood up.

“I have to go get ready.” She said before leaving. I know she and Grace were the very last part of the show so it was almost over. I walked over to the boys and they all had hopeful looks on their face.

“Didn’t go well I assume.” Zayn said patting my back. I nodded my head and he gave me a sympathetic smile.

“Here they winner of favorite Duo or group! It’s the Outcasts!” Selena said into the mic.

Charlotte’s P.O.V
After Selena introduced us the music for our song “Best of Me” came on. It’s one of the few songs that I have wrote. We walked on stage from opposite sides as I began to sing. When the song was finished we hurried off stage so the host could finish the show. When we went to go change Grace grabbed my arm.

“Give him a chance to explain things. I know you won’t regret it just give him a chance.” She said before walking ahead of me. Maybe I do owe him to just listen then make my decision. I ran to go change and when I walked in Harry was in there but Grace was nowhere. I was confused and as I was about to talk he came and pulled me into a hug and then kissed me.
