Chapter 14

WHO IS HARRY STYLES DATING??

While on the break from their tour, 1/5 of One Direction, Harry Styles was spotted not just once, not just twice, and definitely not just thrice out with this girl; we definitely couldn't keep count to how often Harry Styles has been spotted lately with this young woman around his hometown in Cheshire and London.

'He's literally taking her out everywhere; he's blowing his other friends off to be with her'. An inside source says.

Harry Styles was spotted out grocery shopping in London with this young lady, buying tubs and tubs of ice cream from his hometown in Cheshire, grabbing take outs and having lunch at the park and last but definitely not the least, Harry Styles was even spotted taking that young lady inside his house in London! And.. who knows what happened after that!

'They were sweet, they couldn't take their eyes off each other. I have never seen a happier Harry in ages! Am happy for him for sure'. says June, the owner of Harry's favorite ice cream shop who witnessed Harry and his new girl together.

Apparently, that young lady isn't a mystery anymore, Directioners found out who this girl was; her name? Kristine Nikki Garcia which is... not a model? not a singer? but a human being. Yes, a human being from the Philippines. For the first time in forever, Harry Styles is finally dating an actual human being and not a super barbie doll, maybe he's tired of the pretty faces? But how unfortunate for this young love, seems like everyone is not taking this relationship positively. Rough start guys.

#UglyNikki and #LeaveHarryAlone was a top worldwide trend last week when the two was spotted being cozy on a park and when they followed each other on twitter and on instagram.

As of the moment, there are only few info about Harry's lady love but that wouldn't be for long. HOLLYWOOD NOW will be watching!

WHOA. So my name is really out there in the open? I'm sorry guys but no matter what, I won't be accepting any follower requests or answering any messages. It's the only way I can maintain my privacy. I mean, I am not a celebrity, it just so happened that my *coughs* boyfriend is a celebrity.

My family and friends in the Philippines are messaging me on facebook and wherever they can contact me informing me that local entertainment news programs in the Philippines are pressing them to get me and grant an interview with them and they are willing to fly here just to get an interview with me.

WHAAAAAT!?

NO.

ABSOLUTELY NO INTERVIEWS.

Not to be rude and not that Harry doesn't want me to talk but it is my choice. I don't want anything to do with publicizing my relationship with Harry. I have seen how ugly it can get. The media, I mean; and I don't want anything to do with that.

Before I was thinking what if? what if I dated a celebrity? There's this little fantasy in my head that maybe if that happened it would be perfect. But never have I thought that those imaginations would actually happen in real life. Trust me, I'm still pinching myself if what's happening is real or not. I'm still in state of... I-HAVE-NO-IDEA-WHATS-HAPPENING here phase.

Yes, I am happy that the man of my dreams loves me too but it can also be hard, given his fans. They hate me; like a lot. I just hope they'll get over it. I mean look, I'm not a bad person. I am not a gold digger. I'm just a normal girl; and isn't that what us directioners would like Harry to date? I know I'm not perfect, I'm not even pretty and sexy at all for him; whenever I get to see myself in photographs on tabloids and entertainment news I look like a peasant near a billionaire/superstar/boybander.

I still worry whenever I come across the thoughts that what if Harry realizes that one day he doesn't like me anymore? that he doesn't really love me? what if he got tired of me and just dropped me just like that? He's always surrounded with pretty supermodels and popstars so I know you understand me I'm just an average human being. That article was right.

Anyways, speaking of my relationship with Harry, more than the fact that other people makes it seem really hard, he has been nothing but the sweetest boyfriend. He makes sure you're enjoying yourself while you're with him, he likes to do weird and funny things just to make you laugh even if he can look silly, he makes you feel comfortable.

I honestly felt like I wouldn't be able to move when I went with him in his house but I was completely wrong. We went grocery shopping, and cooked pasta, ordered pizza for dinner and an unexpected guest arrived; his sister Gemma. They were absolutely funny together. Gemma was so sweet and caring towards her younger brother and absolutely cool about us. I thought she would hate me after what happened but it was the opposite.

She told me that she's happy seeing her brother grow more and more as a man now. She likes the fact that she sees her brother taking a stand for what he feels.

Ofcourse my heart is jumping up and down when his sister told me that. Plus the fact that she is extremely nice and cool and chill and I don't know cool? did I just say that again? cool? well she really is! I'm just starstrucked! I'm actually more starstrucked with her than Harry. Kidding!

Thank goodness Harry's mom Anne wasn't able to come with Gemma to surprise Harry because of some commitments she had with a local news program at Cheshire featuring the real housewives of cheshire. I don't know what will happen to me if I met Harry's whole family. I might just not move at all.

By the way, Harry's house was absolutely without a doubt gorgeous, but homey. He likes his paintings and his artsy lamps. He likes his kitchen always packed with food because friends always pays him a surprise visit. He likes his collection of dvds and his huge, gigantic TV. By the way we watched his all time favorite film, 'Titanic' but got bored so me and Gemma insisted to switch to 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre'and then went on with the classic 'Freddie's Nightmares'.

I slept at a seperate room with Gemma. It is where Gemma sleeps whenever she comes to visit Harry so we shared a room. There she gave me a phone and said;

'This is Harry's he wants you to have it, after he smashed the other phone he gave you. Don't worry he has dozens of phones believe me this is nothing for him. He told me that you do not like him giving things to you... I understand that. Just consider this as... like, you know... you're just borrowing a phone from him. While you are here, you can use this. Because your phone doesn't really work here, and it is up to you if you want to return it to him before you go home'.

'I will return it. And why didn't he just give me this personally? Oh... Thanks Gemma'

'Eurgh don't thank me! it's Harry's but yeah don't worry about it. He said you wouldn't accept it of he gave it to you himself. Anyways, that is already on roaming so you can call and text each other while he's in Vegas or wherever he may be'.

'Got it'.

Then after my stay at Harry's I went ahead and worked at 'The Nest' again the whole week. Harry pays a visit at Alex's flat almost everyday but only after we have closed the cafe so he doesn't attract any attention on broad daylight and we would just talk about everything and go on late night road trips around the city.

Anyhow, a week has passed and within that week, Damian has always reminded me about our day off together so I agreed without telling Harry because I didn't know how to tell him. And I already made a promise to Damian, it would be rude to blow him off again. Besides, it's nothing to me; it's just a normal day out with a friend right?

***********************************

Alex was already at her flat studying for her exams at her graduate school so me and Damian were left to close the cafe and while we're closing the cafe, Damian told me;

'It's saturday tomorrow, finally'

'Yeaaah, I know'. I answered, enthusiastically.

'I'll see you tomorrow then, yeah?'

'Of course!'

'Pick you up at 10?'

'In the morning? okay, sure'

'Right. Bye!'.

Then he rode on his motorcycle and went home. It will be fun tomorrow, I know. It will be nice to have a new friend in a new place; it will be great. I told myself.

BUZZ... BUZZ...

Harry:

Hey, I'm coming over.

Me:

What? I thought your flight is tonight?

Harry:

Yes, but I will see you first before I get on the plane. :)

Me:

Alright. Come quick!

Harry:

Yes ma'am!

I waited for him to arrive and of course I was excited, I don't know if I'll ever get tired of being too excited to see him. Everytime I see him or receive a message and a call from him my heart still jumps from excitement. And after about a couple of minutes there he was with Liv, parking his range rover infront of the cafe.

'How very quick'. I told him.

'I was just obeying orders ma'am'. He answered, smiling. Then he grabbed me by the waist and placed his lips in my forehead, I hugged him back with my fast beating heart.

'Very good' I told him.

Then he pulled away from the hug and placed his hands in his pocket, searching for something...

The paper plane necklace.

'I thought you lost it... or threw it away' I said, chuckling.

'How can I? here'. He turned me over so my back was facing him, and he gently placed the necklace in my neck. Then I turned around, facing him again while holding the pendant.

'Wear that with me, Always'.

Then he opened his coat and I saw that he was wearing his necklace too. I smiled and said;

'Yes, sir'...

He then smirked, showing his dimples again... those freaking dimples that makes me weak in the knees everytime; then he pulled me and placed his left hand at the back of my waist while his right hand held my jaw, then he gently kissed me. And I was lost again... I can't think straight when he does that.

Liv then loudly cleared his throat making it obvious that he wants to interrupt.

'You'll be late for your flight!', said Liv.

We both looked at him embarassed and Harry told him,

'What? Alright, Liv. I'm coming'

He turned to me and said,

'I'll miss you. Keep in touch okay?'

'Harry, you'll only be in Vegas for 2 days. Not 200 years'. I told him, laughing.

Then he chuckled and said 'Feels like it'.

'Shut up and go'. I jokingly told him.

'Alright, bye'. Then he whispered, 'Love you'.

Can I just?.... AHHHHHHHHHHHH. Oxygen, I need oxygen!

With a smile, I answered; 'Love you too'.

Then he went and slid in his car to catch his flight. How am I not dead yet?

*********************************************************************************************************

The next day, Damian was early; he was already at Alex's before 10am so I rushed and not really took the effort to dress up. I just wore my black leggings, black tank top with my gray cardigan and slipped on my favorite chucks. I put my hair on a bun and sprayed on some perfume and had my brown leather body bag wrapped around my body.

I was right. I knew it, this day will be fun indeed. Damian was always fun to be with. We grabbed fish and chips while we walked around the city and played arcade games. It is refreshing to really go out without hiding and being photographed. I think I really got to enjoy the city tour with Damian, he was funny and a perfect gentleman. I'm sure that whoever he might like in the future would absolutely be lucky. Only not me, even when Alex keeps on telling me that Damian might like me, I try to not think about it and treat him as my good friend.

'Hey we should do this again'. Damian told me as he walked me towards the cafe.

'Yeah, we'll see. I had fun by the way... thanks for today'. I said.

'Really? Were you okay with just walking and riding at my motorcycle? Around the city?'

'Of course! Why would I not be? I'm used to that. My dad used to take me to school before with motorcycle. Motorcycles are cool'.

'Im glad you think that'.

'Yeah. No worries. See you at work on monday!'

'Yep, see you'. He finally told me then he went for a hug. I hugged him back thinking it's just a friendly gesture but then he tightly held me. And it felt different. It was strange but it felt good. He slowly pulled away from the hug looked at me with his deep blue eyes and gently touched my face with his right hand... It took me by surprise when he suddenly placed a gentle kiss on my cheeks. For the first time with him, I felt my heart beat fast but not as much as I felt when I am with Harry. For the first time with Damian I couldn't move. But then I remembered Harry...

'Uhh... bye Damian. Take care. See you at work!'

He then looked at me bewildered but then just smiled and said;

'Alright. Bye' Then he went ahead and rode on his motorcycle.

Wow was that rude of me? Anyways. Forget that happened, Nikki. Please.

'Nic! Won't you watch your boyfriend? They'll be performing in iheart radio music festival! Come on it's gonna be on in a minute!' Alex suddenly shouted.

Oops! I almost forgot!

'Yeah, I'll be there in a minute!'

After I changed my clothes, I checked my phone to see if I have any messages from Harry. There wasn't any so I thought he might be busy preparing for their performance so I left my phone in the room and went went to the living room with Alex who is having coffee and a slice of carrot cake.

'Hey! How was your day?' She asked.

'Great. I had fun'.

'That's good then, Damian is always fun to be with'.

'Yeah he really is'. I agree with her. Except for the part where he hugged me; that made me feel... awkward?

This is Priscilla Smith your red carpet correspondent bringing you the latest and the hottest scoops for this year's iheart radio music festival live in las vegas only here on Entertainment Special!...

Okay... the show's on... I'm excited to see my boyfriend on TV. Wow I can't believe this. I actually have a boyfriend that I can watch on tv. I won't have to miss him that much then.

Naaah. I still miss him. Come here quick Harry!!

'There's your boybander boyfriend!' Alex excitedly told me while she sipped her coffee.

I smiled at her and watched the red carpet interview...

Interviewer:

Here is the English-Irish boyband One Direction! Hi guys! How you doin'?

Niall:

Fantastic. Lovely to see everyone here!

Liam:

We are so excited to come down here and perform for you guys!

Interviewer:

Great! We are so excited as well!! Care to answer some of our twitter questions?

Zayn & Louis:

Sure

Harry:

YEAAH why not?! Bring it on!

Wow. Harry is in such good mood. It's good to see him like that. Although he kinda looks like an idiot fist pumping his arms around looking very cheery and excited.

Interviewer:

Alright our first twitter question is for the overly excited Harry Styles!!

Harry:

Yeaaaah I'm all ears... what is it?!

Interviewer:

Ooohh... okaayyy... so this question is from @mrsstylesbabex101 Harry what can you say about your girlfriend dating another guy while ur away?

Ohh it even has a photo attached!

I froze. Me and Alex looked at each other and was not able to talk...

This is not happening right?

Harry:

Sorry?

Interviewer:

Here is the photo of your girl. Is she your girl? Because if she is... she is clearly on a date with someone else...

Harry stared at the picture from the phone. The camera didnt show the picture he was looking at but I can see that he didnt like what he saw. He had his eyebrows furrowed for a second then Niall and Liam started to look at the picture as well... and Niall half hugged Harry while he smiled at the interviewer. Zayn and Louis mouthed 'Oooooh' while looking at Harry.

Then he shrugged, gave the phone back to the interviewer and said;

Harry:

We're good friends; is all.

After he said that, he was clearly not as cheery like he was when they entered the red carpet. The interview went ahead with the boys but he is clearly already in a bad mood. He is seen smiling with the fans but not as excited.

I thought I wasn't being photographed. I wasn't with Harry so why would the paps take interest in me? I am not a celebrity to be photographed. I swear i have never seen a pap following me and Damian. And what was that picture?? And what... what??? We're good friends? He just denied me. Okay. I know why he did that but somehow it kind of hurted me that he denied me infront of the press and of the world.

'Is it just me or did Harry just denied you?' Alex asked.

'It's okay Alex I understand him. It's for his career and my privacy as well'.

'You sure youre okay? Cause you clearly doesnt sound okay at all. And did someone just took a snap of you and Damian? I told you it won't be easy'.

'Im kind of hurt but I totally get where Harry is coming from. I'm sure he did that to protect our relationship'.

'He could have atleast told you that before saying it on TV; you were genuinely surprised with what he said. If I were you I'm going to call him now and explain that picture'.

She's right but I'm not in the mood to talk to him yet. It feels like I don't have the strength to even walk at my room to get my phone with what I just watched.

'Yeah, I'll do that later. Let's just enjoy the show! Come on Alex I'm sure he'll understand'. I forced a smile.

'Okaaayyy'.

Then me and Alex watched the whole show. But even we're watching it feels like my brain is not even working I'm just completely lost. We watched One Direction's performance and I was concerned on Harry's performance. I still hope he'll do great. Well he did well as always but there was something in him that's just not right. He still smiles for the audience but then he looks like he's in deep thought whenever the camera pans down on him. He clearly looks like he's in bad mood. After their performance,I decided to call him and ask how's he doing. But when I checked my phone; I already got messages from Harry. And five missed calls.

Harry:

Mind explaining this?

And there were attached photos of me and Damian walking, laughing and even a photo of me and him infront of the cafe when he kissed me on the cheek.

Harry:

What's taking you so long to reply? Is he still there????

Harry:

Fine then. Enjoy your date with him. Hope you're having fun.

Me:

First, He is not here. Second, I did not have a date with Damian.

Harry:

Whatever you say.

Me:

Why are you being so rude now? It was just a friendly day off. Harry. I promised him that we will go around the city on my free time. I did not want to break my promise.

Harry:

Yeah. You do not want to break your fucking promise to that fucking prick even if you hurt my feelings. How very nice of you.

Me:

You know what, this conversation is going nowhere. We'll talk when you get home.

Harry:

So now you're dropping me off? What if I came home now? Would you talk to me properly?

Me:

You are too impulsive. Stop. Harry please you still have commitments there.

Harry:

Watch me.
