All I Want For Christmas Is You

CAT'S POINT OF VIEW:

Well the first hour was pretty awkward, considering I didn't speak at all. All I got was angry glances from the Chinese girl next to me. I finally got angry enough to talk to her.

"What is wrong with you?" I asked, slapping my palm on her tray. She took a deep breath in and didn't speak. "Hello? I asked you a question," I said, making her look at me. "You guess," she said, flipping her black hair around to look at me in anger, she was American. I shook my head with wide eyes. "No," I replied. I wanted to know why she automatically hated me. "Well, let's see... Look at the hoodie you are wearing... I bet it's his. I saw you on TV. You're the one he wants. I wanted it to be me..." she said, looking at my purple hoodie... that's when I realized that I was wearing his Jack Wills hoodie he let me wear on the night I lost my little black dress... the night of the concert... the night of the bar... the night I met him...

"Well you should be happy to know it's over now," I said before staring straight ahead at the back of the seat. "Oh, I know," she said lowering her voice. "What do you mean you know?" I asked, turning to face her another time. "The entire fandom knows you dumped him and broke his heart," she said before looking down at her phone's lock screen. "I... I.. just didn't think I wanted this," I said, choking up a bit... even the fandom hates me.... And now I know what I did was wrong but I bet no one believes me that I didn't mean to hurt him.

"Why would you think that? I even SHIPPED you two," she said, not looking up at me. She was drawing an invisible heart around Harry's fetus face on her lock screen. "I thought different at first too. I didn't think ... well I didn't think everything was going to happen so quickly," I answered as the flight attendants came up to our row and asked us if we wanted a drink. "Dr. Pepper please," I asked the attendant. "Sorry miss, but we only serve Coke products," "Okay... water then," I answered, and the Chinese girl ordered a Coke. The attendant gave me a tiny cup of ice water and a napkin. I set it onto the tray carefully not to spill it. After the Chinese girl got her Coke can and cup and napkin settled down on her tray, I asked for her name. "Tina, and you are Cat," she said, brushing her hair out of her mouth as she took a drink of Coke. "I've been a Directioner since 2010," she proudly boasted, looking at me. "But you're American?" I asked, knowing that the X-Factor that the boys were made on, wasn't being shown in the U.S. in 2010. "Yes... My dad is British, my mom is Chinese, and my dad lives in London. I go there a lot, but I was raised in Texas," she stated, taking another drink. "Oh," I replied. I didn't know what else to say. Suddenly I realized that Tina changed her attitude. I guess she figured out that being rude wouldn't get her anywhere. "Hey, what is Harry like? I have never been able to afford tickets to a show," Tina asked, grasping my upper arm. "He's great, he's so lovable, and so sweet. He is everything and more that the fans know him to be," I said, leaving out the part that he took advantage of me... even if we both don't remember it. "That is soo cool! Were you a fan? And are you?" she asked, becoming more interested in my life story. "Yeah," I answered, playing with the ice sticking out of my water. "You are sooooo lucky," Tina laughed. "So many girls envy you... Including me... I guess I get jealous pretty easily," she giggled, looking down at her drink. "I can't imagine," I said, leaning down to look out of the window. The clouds were even darker, and the turbulence was getting heavier and more prominent.

I felt a tap on my shoulder and saw the old man smile at me. I smiled back. "You must be Cat," he said in a thick British accent, continuing to smile. I looked back over at Tina and opened my mouth wide. "How do you know, were you listening to our conversation?" I asked him, pointing to Tina, who smiled. "Nope. I saw your picture," he said proudly as he took a drink of his water. Great... now random people see my picture in random places... "Let me guess, the internet or TV or something?" I asked him kindly and jokingly. "Nope," he surprisingly said as he opened his eyes wide with a smile. I glanced at Tina, who I suspected didn't hate me anymore. She shrugged. We were both very confused. "Where did you see my picture then?" I asked the old man. He stuck out his hand for me to shake and I did so awkwardly at first.

"Hello Cat, my name is Brian Selley. I am Anne's father. You know Anne as in Harry Styles' mother. Harry told me all about you,"
