The Only Reason || Harry Styles ||

“Max!”

I looked around at the shop and saw Luke sitting at the same location we sat at last time. He was wearing a sleeveless baggy shirt with “YOU COMPLETE ME” written on it. His legs wrapped by skinny jeans with a hole on the right knee a bit big but it’s all right. And his feet were adorned by a white converse. And for me, I wore a fitted black and white sweater with long sleeves that’s beyond my wrist and just inches of hiding my fingers. My legs wrapped by grey pants along with my brown boots.

I made my way towards the table and sat in front of a smiling Luke.

“Hey.” I greeted with a smile.

“So… how’re you doin’?” he asked.

“I’m fine.” I lied. I still can’t erase the night when Niall came to ‘keep an eye’ on me. Then my phone being locked which I completely remember I didn’t. Then Niall being so serious all of the sudden.

I knew Niall was the one who locked it. I'm sure of it. Who would, right? It was just me and him in the living room on that day.

And that moment, without a doubt, I knew there’s a connection between Luke and Niall. Or with my brother. Add my dad. I still didn’t have evidences that proves it right but I can feel it. There’s just something about their aura that’s similar to my dad’s and Cliff’s.

This past few days seemed creepy. My dad and Cliff didn’t spend their time in the house much. When they did, which was a day only, they kept staying in their rooms or just in the kitchen. If I was with them, for example in the kitchen, they keep stealing glances my way like they don’t I won’t notice. They also speak like there’s a hidden meaning or message.

They’re like fucking idiots. Do they think I was too stupid to think there’s nothing going on between… whatever that is?! Well, they thought wrong. I finally made up my decision to find all this out. All.

And now with Luke here, I can get answers without him knowing.

He’s not stupid, my subconscious spat.

Whatever you say, but I’ll take the chance.

So I started with,

“So… Luke, you still go to school?” I asked.

“Uh no, actually. My dad and I run a, you can say, ‘company’. I was the seconds in charge.” He answered boldly.

“Company?”

“Uh… yeah, I’d like to call it like that. You? Still go to school?” he said before I could ask a question. Clever. But I won’t give up.

“Yeah. I do. Ever heard of Gabriela High?”

“Oh. G-gabriela.”

“Ever heard of it?” I asked.

“Yeah. It was kind of ‘popular’ with my family.”

“Really? How so?” I asked, my brows furrowed.

“Uh I really don’t know the reason why.” He laughed.

“Why did you stop attending school? Just because of your ‘company’?” I emphasized the word ‘company’.

“Uh-“

He was about to answer but a towering figure loomed above me. I looked up and gasp when I saw a serious looking Cliff.
