Then

The school hallways were deserted, most likely because it was the end of the day. The end of the school year, so everyone obviously has gotten home to enjoy the two month break. Colette however was still there, her hand slightly touching each locker softly without a sound as she walked past.

She was waiting for her boyfriend, Harry Styles to return from talking to his other friends. She couldn't help but eavesdrop when she heard them talking.

"I'm quitting,"

"Harry man, you can't do that, c'mon it's almost done,"

"No, I'm already lying to her, I don't want her to leave me,"

"Harry, don't be a pussy. We're the only ones who knows about the bet. We won't tell her that you just started asking her out and everything just so you can have your money."

Colette was shocked. It was all a lie. Harry never loved her. She brought her hand to her face and realized she was crying. She wiped the tears, shook her head and walked to the boys.

She grabbed one of the guys talking to Harry, turned him around and punched him straight in the jaw. He stumbled down to the ground holding his now bleeding and probably broken nose.

Harry's eyes widened and so did the other boy's. "Babe,"

"Don't babe me asshole. I'm leaving. We're done." Colette started walking away. Harry yelled for her. He finally caught up to her and he grabbed her shoulders causing her to stop.

"Baby, please, let me explain!"

"There's nothing to explain! This is why you wanted me to stay in the car isn't it? So I wouldn't know that this was just a bet. Us was just a bet. I was just a bet. I meant nothing to you."

"No! I love you!"

"No stop. Stop it. It hurts. It feels like you just stabbed me in the chest repeatedly over and over again. Did you get a bonus for getting me to sleep with you too?"

"No! Please, I'll do anything, just - just don't leave me!"

"I'm done. I don't know what I did to deserve this. I loved you! You have no idea how much! I let you take my fucking virginity! I fucking looked past your reputation and believed that you could love me somehow. I'm fucking stupid! I'm fucking-"

Harry cut her off by kissing her. She wanted to kiss him back but he hurt her. She wasn't letting him get away with that. Instead she pushed him off her. Harry was crying too. Wow, he was a great actor.

"No! Kissing me won't fix it! It won't fix anything! You know what the worst part is? Is that I have no one to cry to. No one to tell anything to. All my friends and my family, they're all going to say the same thing. 'I told you so Colette, you're so stupid,'"

"No Baby, you're not stupid okay? I do love you! Please believe me! Let me explain!"

Colette shook her head and ran. She ran as fast as she can leaving a very hurt Harry.

When she got to her house she ran straight to her room. She had no one to talk to about this. All her friends are only there for her when they needed something seeing as she came from a very wealthy family.

She hugged her knees to her chest and sobbed. She was interrupted when she heard knocking on the door. Colette quickly wiped her eyes and opened her door. It was her sister. Elena.

"Wh- what do you want?" Colette sniffed.

"I need to borrow some money,"

"Dad just gave us our allowance the other day!"

"I actually have party outfits to buy unlike you,"

"He gave use ten thousand pounds!"

"Yeah, I know, now give me some money!"

"No!"

"Yes, you selfish bitch, wait are you crying?" Elena laughed.

"That's none of your concern."

"You are! Oh my God, what happened?" Elena loved making fun of her.

"Harry never liked me okay! Are you happy now?!"

"I knew it! I wondered why he would go for a girl like you. Un-experienced, naive, prude, nerdy girl."

"Well this girl, is not giving you any money!"

"What's going on up there?!" Their mother asked.

"You're daughter won't let me borrow some money! She's so rude and selfish!" Elena yelled back.

"Both of you come down here now!"

So they did. "So what's going on?" Their mother crossed her arms.

"I asked for some money, but she won't let me have any, she's pissed because she finally figured out Harry actually doesn't really like her."

"Colette, what did I tell you don't be rude to your sister. And we also told you that a guy like Harry won't like a girl like you,"

"You know what Mother? I'm done! You never support me! You never show you love me! You only give me money and that's it! You're never proud of me! I try my best and still nothing! I'm leaving."

"Colette Starr McLean, don't you dare talk to me like that,"

Colette shook her head. She didn't even get any of her things. All she had is her phone and her bag. She left.

Now

Harry had fired another worker. Again. Styles Co. was the biggest company in Europe. He was very stressed. Even more stressed than usual. He was planning on expanding to the U.S but his staff were all screw ups. He wondered how they got through collage.

He checked his appointment and apparently he had a photo shoot and an interview to do with Vogue.

He called his driver. He wanted to get this over with and done.

He didn't know that the person interviewing him and taking pictures was the love of his life.
