They Don't Know About Us
Secrets and Flashbacks
Lexi’s P.O.V.
Fans were crowded in front of the studio. I swallowed hard. Harry squeezed my hand reassuringly; I looked up at him and gave him a brave smile.
“You guys are so cute together!” “OMG you match!” I looked at my outfit--http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=90170069, then at Harry’s--http://p.twimg.com/AwAGK2LCQAMmg76.jpg:large. He grinned cheekily, showing his oh-so-adorable dimples. “You’re so beautiful, Alexis!” “Can I be you, please?” I looked at Harry who suddenly seemed very interested in his shoes. “Harry? How come they suddenly love me?” I asked as he opened the door for me. “Because you are lovable, babe,” he answered. I rolled my eyes and he quickly pecked my lips, only to hear a chorus of awws from behind.
“Can we get something to eat, before?” I asked.
“Sure,” he answered
He steered the car to the McDonalds drive-thru. “Can we get two large cheeseburgers and—“
“OMG Harry freakin’ Styles!” the girl fainted. “Uh-oh,” Harry said, obviously knowing the effect he had on girls. Another girl came to take our order, “Can I know—“
“HARRY STYLES!” the girl ran back inside. I rolled my eyes, while Harry innocently looked at me, “Not my fault.”
“God! Can you stop making girls faint,” I said exasperated.
I pulled Harry’s hoodie up and gave him his shades, “I’ll order,” I stated. “You’re cute when you’re bossy,” Harry grinned. I shook my head and ordered for both of us. We collected our order at the next window, and drove home without making any other girls faint.
Harry’s P.O.V.
“I’m gonna change,” Lexi stood up after we finished the food. I nodded and switched the T.V. on.
Harry Styles was infuriated when fans sabotaged his one-month-old girlfriend—Alexis Tomlinson’s nineteenth birthday par—
I changed channel quickly.
Harry was seen yelling at a fan because—
I changed the channel again and sighed with relief when I saw SpongeBob
“Harold Edward Styles!” Lexi yelled snatching the remote from my hand and returning to the channel playing the news about me.
When a fan started insulting Alexis, Harry yelled back and seemed ready to kill the fan, but thanks to Daddy Direction—Liam Payne the fight was resolved. Alexis Tomlinson is really lucky to have her boyfriend’s back, but is insulting fans the right thing to do?
Alexis’s eyes turned steel gray. “Harry?” she asked, biting her lip to keep from yelling.
“Lexi,” I replied evenly.
“HARRY YOU’LL LOSE FANS FOR GOD’S SAKE!” she yelled, finally.
“I don’t care,” I said calmly, “they were saying some stuff about you.”
“THIS,” she said pointing to the screen which showed a picture of me yelling at the blonde, “DOESN’T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME OR YOU, IT CONCERNS THE WHOLE FUCKING BAND, HARRY!”
“The lads were mad too,” I shrugged.
“BUT THEY WEREN’T READY TO KILL A FAN! YOU NEED TO KEEP YOUR TEMPER IN CONTROL!”
Now I was mad too, “DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY WERE SAYING ABOUT YOU?! I FUCKING TOLD THEM TO SHUT UP AND THIS IS WHAT I GET? YOU’RE YELLING AT ME FOR SOMETHING THAT ISN’T EVEN MY FAULT. IT’S NOT MY FAULT THAT I FUCKING LOVE YOU, LEX!”
“Harry, I don’t want to be the reason the band falls apart, because some stupid fan insulted me,” she said through gritted teeth.
“And that stupid fan was the reason you cut,” I said without thinking.
I saw the way she scrunched her nose to keep from crying. “Babe, I’m sorr—“ I said reaching for her hand.
“Don’t,” she hissed her eyes hard as steel.
She pulled away and walked to her room slamming the door.
Lexi’s P.O.V.
I stripped out my clothing and snuggled under the covers, in my bra and panties. The memories came rushing back
----------Falshback----------
“You’re so fat!” “I don’t even want to talk to her!” “Did you shower?” “Sorry, you can’t sit here,” The girls as usual making fun of me.
“C’mon Lex, sit with us,” El said pulling me up. I smiled gratefully at her.
After lunch, I walked to my next class, only to be stopped by the bad guys in school.
“Aww look who’s it, Louis’s little sister!” “Babe you’re welcome home anytime,” another burly looking guy said. “John, you should share,” a muscled and tall guy said, “No problem, we can do it together!” John said grinning and shivers ran down my spine.
I tried to walk away but John pulled me back with my hair. “Lexi?” Lou came taking my hand and walking me to the next class, and I could hear the boys scoffing, I tried to hold my tears for a couple more hours.
At home
I heard mum and dad fighting over me again. I ran to the bathroom and slashed a cut on my wrist like always. Just four more years I kept telling myself then you’ll go to Paris and be a new person.
----------End of Flashback----------
Tears streamed down my cheeks as I remembered the first two years of high-school. Then Scott came and I thought everything was going to be okay, until he forced me in bed.
----------Flashback------------
“Babe,” his hands resting on my hips, “will you help me to the room?” he asked sweetly. I nodded placing his arms around my shoulder. “When will we have sex?” he whined. I hated this. Did all boys want the same thing? “I’m waiting for the right time, Scott,” I sighed. In reality I wasn’t. I just wanted to lose my virginity to the right person, that boy definitely wasn’t Scott.
“Now’ s the right time, babe,” he pushed me on the bed and quickly hovered on top of me and started kissing my neck. “Scott,” I tried to pull away but he had a tight grip around both my wrists. “Don’t!” I yelled as he started kissing my lips. His grip tightened and my veins consricted. “Just shut up!” he punched my left arm then my right arm. I cringed in pain. His hands went up to my shoulder and held me down so he could continue. He moved his lips down to my shirt while he rubbed himself up and down my body. A tear escaped from my eye, as I wondered why this always happened to me. Why did I have to be the victim? Why did people always force themselves on me?
Scott’s grip loosened as he moved his hand down, this time to travel under my shirt. I quickly kicked him in the balls and ran out of the room. He ran behind me, but being on track team had its advantages. I ran home and slammed my bedroom door finding a razor to cut my pain.
----------End of Flashback----------
More tears fell as I realized that Scott had never cared for me, and my naiveté to believe in his apologies only to be broken again when I saw him sleeping with Veronica. I remembered promising Lou to never cut again when Scott tried having sex with me. I remembered his tear streamed face and broken voice when he realized I’d been cutting for the past three years. He blamed himself for not being a good brother. And then Harry… I sobbed until I ran out of tears.
I heard the door slowly open and saw a mess of curly hair. I shut my eyes pretending to be asleep. Harry shut the door and I felt him beside me, “I know you’re not sleeping,” he said in a hoarse voice, which confirmed that he had been crying. I didn’t respond. “I’m sorry,” he said quietly. I slowly turned to look at him, his hair was a mess as if he had been running his hands through his hair since forever, and his eyes were bloodshot. “I talked to, Lou,” he said softly, “I didn’t kn—“ I cut him off by placing my lips on his. I felt him hesitating at first but he gave in and his tongue explored my mouth. I wrapped my arms around his neck needing him more than ever, I rolled myself on top of him without breaking the kiss, and his hands went in my hair as he deepened the kiss.
I rolled back on my side, “I love you,” I told Harry. “Love you, more,” he kissed my nose. “Do you want to talk about the cutting?” he asked softly. Without thinking I told him all about bullying and Scott, tears rolled down my cheeks. Harry wiped them away with his thumbs, “You’re the bravest girl I’ve ever met,” he said, placing his hands on my cheeks and kissing me softly, “And I love you for that,” he whispered. Then, I realized the biggest difference between Scott and Harry. Scott had always been persistent about sex, Harry treated me like fragile glass and wasn’t forcing me into anything.
I snuggled into his chest tracing his sparrow tattoos. “I hate fighting with you,” he said truthfully. “Me too,” I told him. He turned and wrapped an arm around my waist, “You’re naked,” he grinned cheekily. I laughed and told him to sing me to sleep.
When I see your smile
Tears roll down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one
I looked up at him, his green eyes shining with sincerity, truth and love
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
Cuz you're my, you're my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me you'll stay woah, stay woah
Tears rolled down my cheeks, because I knew he meant every word he said. He wiped my
tears away and I snuggled back in his chest.
Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray
I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven
