University Of London (BEING EDITED)

Maddie’s P.O.V
I woke up in a cold and empty bed. That’s when I remembered that Harry has gone for two months now. I looked at my phone.
From: Eleanor
What are you doing today? Shopping? :) xxx
I smiled and replied.
To: Eleanor
Yeah okay, just woke up, I’ll be round in 20 xxx
I got out of bed and put on my outfit before getting Brooklyn ready. There was a note next to her in the crib. ‘Going to miss you so much Maddie, love you, I’ll call you every day, Harry xxxx’ I smiled and picked Brooklyn up. I got her dressed as well and went downstairs. The stroller is in Harry’s car so I found his keys and put it into mine before putting Brooklyn into her car seat and into the car. I grabbed my bag and locked the front door behind me. I got into the car and drove to Louis and Eleanor’s apartment. I texted her to tell her I was outside and she came downstairs and got into the car. “You are going to make the papers wearing that,” She said when she saw my outfit. “Oh well, Harry isn’t here!” I replied carelessly. We drove to the shopping centre and I sorted Brooklyn out into her stroller. There were a few paparazzi so I guess El isn’t wrong about me making the papers. We walked around for hours going in various shops and by the time we had finished we had spent about £100. We need the boys to control us! We went back to my house to have something to eat and I went on twitter. I looked at the trends and it read ‘MaddieandHarrySplitAgain’. “What?” I shouted clicking on it. It came up with a lot of links. I pressed on the first one. “Maddie Styles seen shopping wearing tight top and short skirt whilst husband, Harry, is in America. Maddie was nowhere to be seen when Harry and his band jetted off to the States today but was later seen with Eleanor Calder, Louis Tomlinson’s girlfriend. The 22 year old mum looked very happy to be out and about without her husband. She spent the day with daughter Brooklyn as well as Eleanor. Why isn’t she on tour with them like the last time? Could this be the end of the Styles’ marriage?” I laughed and went back onto twitter before clicking on another link. “Maddie and Harry split again? Maddie Styles was seen with daughter, Brooklyn and best friend, Eleanor Calder, after husband jetted off to America in the early hours of this morning. The 22 year old opted for a tight pink top and a short skirt whilst shopping. Maddie looked in high spirits after Harry left this morning. All the other partners of the One Direction boys accompanied them to the airport to say goodbye but where was Maddie? There was certainly no heartfelt goodbye this time. Full time mum to 7 month old baby, maybe she didn’t have the time, or maybe she just couldn’t be bothered to see her husband off. The pair has recently gotten back together after best friends, Louis Tomlinson and Eleanor, dragged Maddie back to the UK to see her broken husband. Could the pair have split again due to Harry’s hectic schedule?” I put the phone down.“They seriously find anything to report on!” I said to Eleanor who was playing with Brooklyn. “I told you.” She answered. “Yeah you did, now I’m going to confirm that this isn’t true!” I walked up the stairs with my phone in my hand. I took a picture of the note and posted it on twitter. ‘@MadsAnderson: Look what @Harry_Styles left for me this morning, such a cutie.’ A girl replied instantly saying: ‘Why didn’t you go with him to the airport like the other girls did?’ I typed in my reply. ‘We have a 7 month old baby who has only just started sleeping through the night, I’m tired and we didn’t want to wake her up.’ I went back downstairs and sat with Eleanor. “Nice tactics.” She complimented me. “Thank you,” I smiled. The girl replied. ‘So you haven’t split up?’ ‘No, of course not, we wouldn’t put Brooklyn through that again,’ I answered. I got a text.
From: Harry<3<3xxx
Always nice to land in America to see a trend about us splitting up. Inappropriate clothing by the way. Love you xxxx
I laughed and showed Eleanor causing her to laugh as well. I went back on twitter and saw a tweet from Harry. ‘@Harry_Styles: No, me and @MadsAnderson have not split up. We have a daughter and we wouldn’t put her through another split just as she’s adjusting to us being back together. Maddie didn’t come to the airport because she’s lazy :P’ I laughed and locked my phone. Eleanor and I talked for a while about going to California before I drove her home. When I got back to my house I got a phone call. “Hello?” I answered. “Is this Madeline Styles?” The caller asked. “It is, how can I help you?” I questioned. “We want you to do an interview with us. You’ll be perfect for it.” They said. “What? Why?” I said confused. “We want to do an interview about a pop star’s partner’s life. You’re the first person that came to mind.” They continued. “Who are you?” I’m still confused. “Sorry, I’m Morgan Spurlock. I directed your husband’s film ‘This Is Us’. It would be great to find out more about your relationship and it will really help after your recent split.” Morgan explained. “I’m not sure Harry would be too happy about that.” I replied. “Check with him and call us back, he’s got our number.” He said before ending the call. That was weird. I called Harry. “Hey, I was just about to call you,” He answered. “I have to tell you something.” I said. “Okay?” He replied. “I just got a call from a guy called Morgan Spurlock, he said he wants to do an interview with a pop star’s partner and wants me to do it.” I explained. “Yeah, he texted me, it’s fine by me if you want to do it babe.” Harry confirmed. “Okay, only if you’re sure.” I said. “Yeah, it means a lot of questions though,” He told me. “That’s fine. I don’t mind.” I replied. “Okay, then tell him you’ll do it. I’ll call you back later baby, bye,” He hung up. I called Morgan back. “Yeah I’ll do it.” I said. “That’s great! Can we start it tomorrow?” He asked. “Umm, I guess. Have you got our address?” I questioned. “Yeah, Harry’s just texted me it. I’ll see you tomorrow then, bye!” Morgan said before hanging up. So now I’m going to do an interview about being a pop star’s partner, this just gets crazier. I went upstairs with Brooklyn and put her in her crib before going to bed myself. I’m so tired.
I woke at about 10am and got dressed. I had just finished getting Brooklyn fed when the doorbell went. I opened the door. “Hi Maddie, I’m Morgan, can we come in?” He asked. “Yeah, I’ll just sort out Brooklyn.” I said. I opened the door wider and went into the kitchen. He came in with some of his camera crew and sat in the living room. I picked up Brooklyn and went to join him. “Right, should we start now?” He said. “Okay,” I confirmed. He sat on the couch beside me.
(FIRST INTERVIEW, AFTER EVERY PAUSE, DIFFERENT SPEAKER)
“What is it like being married to one fifth of the world’s biggest boyband?”
“It’s crazy, when I first met him he was just a normal guy to me, I didn’t know he was in One Direction. He told me and I was shocked, Harry is just so down to earth. He has so many fans and I can’t go out without getting recognised now.”
“You and Harry were together for what? Six months before you found out you were pregnant?”
“It was only 4 months.”
“Wow, no wonder you split up for a while. How does it feel being a mum at only 22 years old?”
“It’s great, I love it. I wouldn’t want to be someone that goes out every night clubbing and drinking. I love being a mum and I wouldn’t change it for the world.”
“Your pregnancy must have been pretty tough with Harry breaking up with you and then all the hate that you received.”
“It was, people don’t realise that when they send hate, it hurts. I was 7 months pregnant when I saw some hate that made me feel sick. Not only did it affect me, it affected Harry as well.”
“When Brooklyn was born, did you and Harry find it hard to cope with a baby or did you just kind of take it in your stride?”
“We found it hard to begin with, to be honest, I seriously thought that people were overreacting about the sleepless nights but on the first night she was home, she woke us up about 10 times. I think now we find it a lot easier to cope with a child. It’s difficult with Harry’s hectic schedule but we manage to make it work.”
“Harry’s proposal to you was sparked by your pregnancy, did you feel like it was the right time?”
“That isn’t actually true. Harry’s mum told me that he was ready to propose when we had only been together for 4 months, before I found out I was pregnant. The only reason he didn’t go ahead with it was because he realised that we just weren’t strong enough at 4 months.”
“Ah right, you’re regularly in the tabloids for wearing particular clothes or shoes. I’m a bit disappointed actually because you’re not going by your style!”
“Yeah, I was wearing something yesterday that got me in the tabloids. I was wearing a tight top and short skirt and Harry didn’t approve. I also have a slight obsession for high heels. I have hundreds of pairs of them but I just stick to a few pairs. Harry had to ban me from wearing them when I was pregnant and I made the tabloids again by wearing them two days after Brooklyn was born.”
“You’re not wearing them today but I can see that you are wearing your bracelets that you recently explained about on Alan Carr. What message would you give to someone like yourself who has suffered from depression and has self-harmed?”
“It gets better. You might have to go through a few councillor meetings first or just a reality check but you will pull yourself out of it. Just know that someone out there loves you and would cry if you ended your life.”
“Let’s move on, is Harry an over-protective husband?”
“He is, when I started Uni he made a point of kissing me as he dropped me off in front of a load of boys so they knew that I was dating him. He’ll tell me off if I wear something that he doesn’t like too. If I’m wearing something that’s too ‘revealing’ he’ll make me change.”
“Haha, what would you say is the best memory that you have with Harry?”
“I’d say our wedding day. It was perfect.”
“What was so perfect about it?”
“All our family was there and I had my two little sisters as my bridesmaids. It was just the best day.”
“Your honeymoon was cut short after your daughter was abducted. How did it make you feel?”
“We were having a great time and I’d literally only just woken up when I got a call from my best friend saying she’d been taken. I was crying and Harry knew something was wrong and started packing. We left straight away. It was horrible that someone would take our daughter but what added to the pain was that they told Harry it was either me or Brooklyn. We had been married for three days and they were making him choose between me and her. It was sick. In the end we found out where they were and they were arrested and we got Brooklyn back but it was a terrible experience for us.”
“Have you and Harry spoken about having more children?”
“We have and we like the idea. I still have another two years at Uni to do though and I’m not sure if I can even have more kids.”
“Oh yes, there is a possibility you could be infertile. Why didn’t you tell Harry?”
“I didn’t tell him because I didn’t want him to break up with me. I know he wants more children and I didn’t want him to leave me for someone who can give him that. We’re really lucky that we made it through it. If we can’t have more children, at least we have Brooklyn.”
“We’ll finish it there for today.”
(END OF FIRST INTERVIEW)
“We’ll be back tomorrow to do some more if that’s okay?” Morgan said standing up. “Yeah that’s fine, Eleanor might be with me though.” I informed him. “That’s fine, she can sit behind the camera. See you tomorrow.” He walked out and shut the door. That was quick. I went and sat with Brooklyn playing with her before taking her outside. It was getting warmer again so we sat on the patio playing sometimes. After a while, I went back inside to make some dinner for us. After dinner, I sat on my laptop reading through my twitter. There were the usual hate messages and a few saying ‘I’m glad you aren’t on tour this time,’ but there was one that said ‘Can you do a twitcam with Brooklyn?’ I looked at Brooklyn playing on the floor and went over to pick her up. I sat with her on my lap and started to do a twitcam. “Hi! Say hi Brooklyn,” I said. She gurgled. I laughed and started to talk. “So I know some of you hate me because of everything me and Harry have been through and you think I treated him badly and stuff but I really do love him,” I decided to put the rumours straight. I saw a tweet from Harry. ‘Watching my wife and daughter on twitcam, so cute,’ I smiled and looked at the camera. “Say hi to Daddy baby,” I leant down to Brooklyn. “Dada” she said. “Awh,” I grinned. There was another tweet that read, ‘I love you Maddie, you and Harry are perfect for each other and obviously make each other happy, I love the Styles’!’ I read it out. “Thank you,@HarryandMaddiexox I love seeing things like that.” I continued to read out some more tweets and play with Brooklyn for about 20 minutes before finishing with: “We love all of you, goodnight!” I closed twitcam and went onto Harry’s twitter profile. “Just spent the last 25 minutes watching my girls, love them.” He’s so cute. I fed Brooklyn before going upstairs and putting her to bed. I watched a film in bed before going to sleep.
At 9am, I woke up to a phone call from Eleanor. I answered it. “Hi,” “Hey, can you come and open the door please!” She said. I laughed and hung up. I put my onesie on and ran downstairs to open the door. “Finally!” She walked inside. “Sorry, I was asleep.” I told her. “I can see.” She laughed. I walked upstairs and she followed after me. “Can you look after Brooklyn whilst I get dressed please?” I asked. She nodded and I walked into the bathroom. I got changed and went back out to join her. “I saw Belle this morning getting into her car, she looked so depressed, what’s happened?” El asked holding Brooklyn. “I don’t know, I’ll call round later.” I told her. I walked back downstairs and she followed me again. “I saw your twitcam last night, was Harry watching?” She sat in the living room. “Yeah, I only kept doing it because Harry was watching.” I admitted. We chatted about California, we’re leaving tomorrow, and the interview for a while before Morgan turned up with his camera crew. “Come in,” I said opening the door. He walked into the living room and greeted Eleanor. “Nice to see you again Eleanor,” He said. “You too,” El replied. I stood in the doorway confused for a second before remembering about the film. “Right, shall we?” Morgan said gesturing at the couch. I sat down and we began our second interview.
(INTERVIEW, SAME AS BEFORE)
“Maddie, you’re close with all the boys and their girlfriends, why is this?”
“I’m close with them because Harry introduced me to them, my best friend is Niall’s girlfriend, Belle and I go to University with Louis’ girlfriend Eleanor.”
“Who out of the boys would you go to for advice? And not Harry.”
“Umm, I think I’d go to Liam for advice because he seems to know what to do in every situation.”
“2 of the boys are Brooklyn’s godparents, why?”
“Louis is because he is best friends with Harry and Zayn because I’m really close with him. Out of all of them, I’m closest with Louis and Zayn and to be honest, with the girls it would be Eleanor and Perrie. I hardly ever see Belle anymore.”
“Belle was your best friend from California who moved out here before you yes?”
“Yeah she was.”
“And she had an apartment in the same block as the boys and didn’t know?”
“Yep. I told her when I started dating Harry and she was shocked. She was a massive fan of them. She isn’t a massive fan anymore though because she knows them all.”
“You told us that you didn’t even know who Harry was, how?”
“I don’t know! I guess I just heard the name and knew it was a band and didn’t care. I know that’s stupid but I hate bands! Even though my husband and best friends are in them.”
“Obviously Perrie is in Little Mix as well, did you know about her?”
“No I didn’t, my little sister did but I didn’t. She was really shy when she first met Perrie because she idolises her. She told me that she brags about me to her friends at school!”
“It must be pretty cool that your sister tells her friends all about you. What stuff does she say?”
“She told me all her friends think she’s really lucky to have a big sister who is married to Harry from One Direction and is best friends with Perrie from Little Mix! I think she brags about Belle as well because she’s known her for quite a long time.”
“You are only friends with Perrie out of Little Mix, have you met the other girls?”
“Briefly, but not properly, I’m sure I would get on with them if I met them properly.”
“You did a twitcam last night with Brooklyn and read out some tweets from fans. They were all so supportive. Is it nice having people that have you as their role model and love you?”
“Yeah, it’s really nice but it would be even better if someone said to me, ‘I don’t just like you because you’re Harry Styles’ wife, I look up to you because you’re just a normal person who goes to University or you’re a great model.’ Of course I love people looking up to me but I don’t really like it that it’s just because I’m married to Harry, I don’t agree with that.”
“Okay, you’re leaving for California tomorrow, what are you going to do over there?”
“I’m going over because my little sister wants me to go to her consultation evening at her school. But I also want to do the normal things I used to do again. I want to hang out with my old friends and go to the beach and mall and things like that. I miss it! I also want to go back to the first modelling agency that scouted me. It will be a really good trip.”
“Who are you going with?”
“I’m going with Brooklyn and Eleanor. Louis has left me looking after Eleanor so I’ve gotta take her everywhere with me. She’s like my daughter, that’s older than me!” (El laughs in background.)
“Okay, we’ll do some more another day.”
(END OF INTERVIEW)
“Thank you Maddie, we’ll see you soon,” Morgan said closing the door. Eleanor sat next to me on the couch and we played with Brooke before the doorbell went. I went to open the door and Belle was standing there. “Can I come in?” She whimpered. “Of course you can, what’s happened?” I said opening the door wider allowing her to walk in. She shut the door behind her and walked into the living room where she collapsed on the couch and started to cry. I sat next to her and hugged her. I’ve only ever seen her like this once before. “What’s the matter?” I asked. “Niall and I split up… We can’t handle the distance.” She cried. “Oh Belle, I’m so sorry.” I tried to comfort her. Eleanor put Brooke on the floor and sat on the other side of Belle. “It’s going to be okay, you’ll find a way through it.” Eleanor soothed. “What’s the point? I don’t have Niall anymore and I really loved him.” She continued to cry. I ran upstairs to get my phone and called Harry. “I know why you’re calling me.” He picked up. “Why?” I said. “Because Belle is a crying mess at the moment. Niall is too. They just couldn’t handle the distance. You know what it’s like.” He answered. “Yeah but we found a way through it, why couldn’t Niall just fly Belle out to see you guys?” I questioned. “We’re busy Maddie! We can’t just do that. Plus, Belle has work too.” He argued. “Oh forget it.” I hung up. I went back downstairs and continued to calm Belle down, we’re leaving tomorrow, and we can’t leave her in this mess!
