Styles -On Hold-

I walked up to my house and wasn’t surprised when Gemma came walking out, she smiled at me and gave me a hug. “Where are you off to?” I know she got annoyed with me, when I asked her this but I couldn’t help it. “Out.” She chuckled as she stole my car keys. “Drive careful.” I yelled after her and as I walked up to my room, I couldn’t stop myself from walking towards the living room as I heard a woman speak in an American accent.

“Ah Harry, there you are, this is Emma Lewis, our new neighbour.” The woman stretched out her hand and smiled at me. I put my hand into hers and was surprised about the firm grasp. “Nice to meet you ma’dam.” I said in my nicest voice. It was important for her to like me, this way I could get closer to her daughter. “Isn’t he dashing?” My head turned to my mother who never talked like that, it was like she was planning something and the woman caught up with her. “Harry, would you be a dear and show Emma’s daughter around, when they are settled?” I couldn’t refuse that and that’s when I figured out what she was doing, which was only in to my benefit.

“Sure, I would love to, just let me know when it’s the right time.” I gave her my best smile and I knew we had her, thanks to the dimples in my cheek. It worked every time. “I’m upstairs if you need me.” I walked into my room and let myself fall on the bed, it was hot today, you could tell that summer had officially showed herself and I wasn’t really complaining but I wasn’t sure if I liked this. I opened my window and enjoyed the sunset, when I heard piano music come from the house next to mine, I was already smiling because I knew for certain that my room was apposite from her room. My suspicion was confirmed when she walked onto her tiny balcony. She took a seat on the ground with her laptop, she did not even see me sitting here, she was so focused on what she was doing that she did not look up from her screen, she was definitely typing. I watched her until the sun was set and had to smile about her facial expressions, whilst typing. She smiled softly whenever she typed something and you could tell she was too warm as she kept wiping her forehead. She bit her lip when she was thinking and when she liked a song, she sang along softly and she had glasses, which made her look even younger.

I walked into the shower, to cool down and after showering I collapsed on the bed and even fell asleep., which didn’t last long because my phone woke me up, telling me it was time to head over to the club and get busy networking. I quickly dressed into black skinny jeans and white shirt and black shoes. I pulled my hand through my hair and just pulled my hair back. I left and got into the car, which would take me to the club. I carried my gun in my waistband, just in case one of Bradley’s men would show his face. The club was packed and as I made my way to the VIP section, my eyes fell on Liam who was dancing with his girl Sophia, she had been with us since a few months ago and she had spirit already but she wasn’t the best gang member, as she refused to sell drugs to one of the richer men, which I understood but I wasn’t happy with it. What did she say oh yes “I’m not selling my body for you Harry.” I can’t blame her for that but she did get punished for disobeying. She wasn’t able to walk for at least a week, Louis was the one who punished her. Not our best moment I have to admit and since that day she avoids me and is only willing to be in the same room, when Liam is there. “Harry!” I heard Louis yell my name and I raised my hand to acknowledge him. “What took you so long?” He asked when I sat down and I smiled at him “I fell asleep.” I admitted with a smirk. “Asleep, you’re getting old or did you had company.” I snorted and punched him. “No I didn’t but I did see this girl, she moved in next door to me and man she is fit as hell.” I didn’t know why I felt the need to tell him that but there you have it.

“You know what you need, a good shag.” He whistled and a girl came walking over, escorted by Niall. Her hair was red and she was pretty. “Are you kidding me Louis.” He shook his head. “Her name is Lucy and she asked for you, so we thought, you know.” He wiggled his eye brows. I chuckled and stretched out my hand for her to take. “Hello love, you wanted me?” I asked her in a low voice and she nodded. “I was, I wanted to make you happy.” She said and I couldn’t help but stare at her breasts, they were big and I really wanted to touch them, I mean I’m still a guy, I have needs even though I fancy a girl, who isn’t here. I touched her face gently and steered her lips to mine, she was willingly and as I pulled her on my lap, the guys all walked out of the VIP section, Louis was the only one who stood guard on the other side of the door. “So you want to make me happy, well love this is your chance, undo my jeans sweetheart.” She didn’t hesitate and as she had her hands down my jeans, she started to stroke me but for some reason I couldn’t get into it. She did get me hard but I wasn’t enjoying this and I knew the reason, I sighed and lifted her from my lap. “Did I do something wrong mr Styles?” she asked embarrassed. “You didn’t, I’m just not in the mood tonight.” I opened the door and walked out “I’m heading home for the night.” I said whilst passing Louis, this surprised him because I never skipped a night out but I was just not in the mood.

“Are you okay?” He called after me and I just waved him off, the minute I was on the street, I took a deep breath and started walking to my house, which was such a stupid thing to do at night because before I knew it, there were people following me. “Alone are we?” I heard a guy ask and I recognized his voice and I was certain he was with Bradley. I stopped and pulled out my gun, which I immediately aimed at the guy. “I am but that doesn’t mean I wont shoot you.” I threatened but the guy just chuckled, that’s when four other guys came into view but I still wasn’t afraid because I was never really alone, as Louis and Zayn always followed when I did something stupid like this. “Really, do you have a death wish?” I chuckled and the moment he aimed his gun at me, there was a shot fired and the bloke went down.

The other guys looked around and I couldn’t help but laugh at this. “You didn’t really think I was really alone did you?” I asked them and that’s when the ran. I chuckled as my dear friends stepped out of the shadows. “Clean him up will you.” I gestured towards the guy they had shot and I know they didn’t like me right now.

“Maybe you should think when you decide to walk the streets at night Harry because we don’t really like shooting people.” This was Zayn the moral voice in my gang and I know he was battling with this all but he always came through. “I’m sorry Zayn, I just didn’t think.” He was also the only one who would get me to apologize, which annoyed the others tremendously. “Just clean it up okay? I will see you guys tomorrow.” I walked away and the minute I walked into the house, I was pulled back to reality,

I walked to my mother’s room and sat down on the bed as she had a nightmare. “Mom wake up, you’re having a nightmare.” I shook her gently. It tore me up inside every time she had these because it made her look much older than she was, it’s my fault she has them, as I killed my dad but there was nothing I could do. She woke with a startle “Harry?” she sounded out of breath and I could only nod and hold her hand. “You had a nightmare.” I gave her the glass of water that was placed on her nightstand. “They are starting again.” She sounded sad but she always got them around this time of year, as it was almost a four years ago that I killed him. “I know, try to sleep and mom, we have to talk tomorrow.” She nodded and lay back down, I kissed her on her cheek and left the room. She had to leave for what I had in store, so after we went to dinner by the Lewis’s, she had to go because things could get ugly and I didn’t want her to get hurt or worse.
