More than this

I fell asleep and had my first night of good sleep. I got up early for my first day at my new job, the interview went well.
“Are you the new girl?” A short girl with long brown straight air asked.
“Yeah, I’m Johannah, nice to meet you,”
“I’m Lotte! Are you American? I like your accent!”
“Thanks. Yeah, I’m from California,”
“Well I’m supposed to show you around and teach you how to work everything. Alex isn’t here today,”
“Alex?”
“Yeah, he’s our manager. He’s really cute! All the girls who work here have a crush on him,”
“Cool, can you just teach me everything?” She was so peppy and I wasn’t really in the mood.
“Yeah, sure. Are you famous or something? I feel like I have seen you in a magazine or on T.V,” all I could think is that there had been pictures of Harry and me in the news or me in the crowd on The X-Factor.
“Nope. Just a normal American,”
“Weird. Sorry if I’m annoying you, you just seem like one of the few normal people who work here,”
“It’s okay. I just want to learn everything, you seem really normal too,” I laughed.
My first day went by fast and I was happy to be home. That’s what it was now, home, it was weird to think of it that way. Harry had to work all day so I was going to have a night to myself. I rented some chick-flicks and had pizza delivered. I didn’t realize how bored I would be without Harry. I needed to make some friends, I thought to myself. The only other girls I had talked to were Eleanor and Danielle. I picked up my phone and called Eleanor first.
“Hey!” She picked up.
“Hey. Are you with Danielle?”
“Yeah, why?”
“Do you guys want to come over? Harry’s working late and I am super bored,”
“Sure! We are on our way now,”
They came over and brought some ice cream, more movies, and plenty of stuff for the perfect slumber party.
“How was your first day at the coffee shop?” Danielle shoveled a spoonful of chocolate ice cream into her mouth.
“It was fine,”
“Did you meet Lotte?”
“Yeah. How do you guys know about her?”
“Are you kidding me? Zayn has a massive crush on her!” They both giggled.
I forgot how nice it was to have girlfriends. For the rest of the night we just watched movies and gossiped. We fell asleep sprawled out on the floor and slept in til noon. I heard a knock on my door and stumbled over to answer it. I expected it to be Harry, but instead it was Louis.
“Hey, sorry babe,” he peered his head in and looked to see the girls sleeping on the floor, “I was coming to steal Eleanor. Looks like you girls had a long night,”
“Yeah, I was lonely so I invited them over. I’ll get Eleanor for you,”
I walked over and tapped her on the back.
“Hey, Lou is here for you,”
“Crap! I forgot we had a date today. I have to get ready,”
I walked back over to the door, “She has to go get ready really fast, but you can come in and wait for her,”
“Okay, thanks babe,” Louis walked over and sat down on my couch. Danielle was still asleep so I decided to leave her that way.
Louis’ POV
“So you were lonely, eh?” I asked as I sat down next to Johannah.
“Yeah, I guess I’m not used to being home alone yet,”
“Haz wouldn’t stop talking about you last night. He felt bad for leaving you alone,” Johannah blushed and giggled, “He should! But luckily I have these lovely girls to hang out with,”
She nudged Danielle with her foot and she slowly woke up and walked to the bathroom. Eleanor came out looking beautiful like she always did.
“Are you ready?” I asked, standing up from the couch.
“Yup! Let’s go,” she turned to Johannah, “Thanks for having us over, we should do this more often,”
“For sure,” Johannah smiled as she opened the door for us.
“Did you girls have fun?” I asked as we walked down the hallway hand in hand.
“Yeah. I can’t believe how perfect Johannah and Harry are for each other. It’s so cute,”
“It get’s kind of annoying though. Harry won’t stop talking about her sometimes, I guess it’s a good thing though,”
“It’s very good,” Eleanor smiled as we walked to the tube.

More than this

Johannah’s POV
After Harry left I tried to fall asleep but I couldn’t, I decided to call my friend Kali but I didn’t expect her to answer since it was about 1 a.m in Chicago. I grabbed my phone and dialed her number. She picked it up on the first ring.
“Johannah! How is London? Have you met any cute boys?”
“Kali! Why are you up so late?”
“Uh, hello? It’s summer, I never sleep!”
“I should’ve known,”
“Well? You haven’t answered any of my questions!”
“Oh right. London is better than I expected. When are you coming to visit?”
“Probably not until next semester, which is forever away! But you didn’t answer my other question, any cute boys?”
What was I supposed to tell her? I couldn’t lie to one of my best friends, but I didn’t know what Harry wanted to do.
“It’s London, babe, it’s crawling with cute boys with accents and good style,”
“Why are you being so vague? Oh well, I guess I’ll meet whatever secret boyfriend you are harboring when I visit you,”
“Sounds like a plan. I can’t wait to see you. I miss you, and everyone!”
“California misses you too. Are you sure you are fine? You sound homesick,”
“I am fine! But it’s still hard to move so far away from everyone and everything I knew,”
“Well I’ll be there as soon as I can to cheer you up and flirt with British boys,”
“Can’t wait! I’m going to go eat some breakfast. Love you!”
“Bye babe. Love you too!” She clicked off.
Talking to Kali made me even more homesick than I thought I was. I let myself cry a little bit before I washed my face and changed. I always cried. I thought it was a little pathetic, but I did it anyways. I made myself an omelet and clicked through the channels. I just remembered Harry was going to be performing tonight and I couldn’t wait to see it. I texted him.
-Good luck on the show tonight! .xx
Harry -Aren’t you going to come watch?
-What do you mean? I’ll watch it on my T.V.
-No silly! Come to the show, you can come with Eleanor and Danielle.
-Oh haha. I’d love to! .xx
-Ok, I’ll tell them to come get you around 6. See you then. xx
I hadn’t hung out with just the girlfriends and I was nervous. I had to make a good impression. I just sat around my flat all day, which was nice for once. I started to get ready and I heard a knock on my door. They were an hour early! I wasn’t even dressed yet. I opened the door and saw the two most beautiful girls standing there.
“Sorry we’re so early, I thought we could help you get ready,” Eleanor beamed.
“I’m happy you did, I have no idea what to wear,”
“ Let’s go!” They said in unison as they grabbed me by my hands and dragged me to my bedroom. Eleanor started looking through my closet while Danielle did my makeup.
“This is so cute! Where did you get it?” Eleanor was holding up the dress Harry had bought for me.
“Thanks, Harry got it for me. It’s from Jack Wills,”
“That’s so sweet!”
“Put it on!” Danielle said as she put the finishing touches on my makeup.
“It looks great. Wear these!” Eleanor handed me a pair of nude oxfords. They stood next to me as we all looked in the mirror. I felt beautiful, but then I looked at the two modelesque figures next to me and I didn’t see why Harry had picked me. We got in the car and they immediately started asking me about Harry.
“So you really like him, huh?”
“Yeah, he’s perfect,”
“How sweet! Are you, like, a huge fan of One Direction?”
“Of course! But that’s not the only reason why I like him. Even if I didn’t know about the band, he would still be my perfect guy,”
“Yeah, that’s how it was for Liam and me, I had a massive crush on him when he was on The X-Factor and I guess he felt the same way,” Danielle looked into the city lights blurring by. I couldn’t even believe I was in a car with them, and they were just normal, sweet girls.
“He really likes you too,” Eleanor continued on, “He talks about you all the time to Louis and I. It’s really sweet actually. And he doesn’t talk about you like he about the other girls. You aren’t just ‘hot’ you’re ‘beautiful’. He talks about how funny and smart you are. He always smiles when he talks about you. You’ve changed Harry Styles!” She ended in an announcer-like voice as her and Danielle both smiled at me. We pulled up to the studio and those infamous butterflies found their way back to my stomach.
“Let’s go wish our boys luck!” Eleanor said as she grabbed my arm and ran through the doors. I hear the boys warming up their voices before I saw them.
Harry’s POV
As we were warming up, I saw the girls walk in. Johannah was wearing the dress I had bought her and it looked better than I had remembered. I smiled at her while I was singing and she mouthed back “hi”. I always got a rush of adrenaline mixed with anxiety right before walking on stage.
“My mom and sister are here, you can sit with them,” I told Johannah as I walked backstage.
Johannah’s POV
“You must be Johannah,” I walked over to Anne and Gemma and they both smiled.
“Nice to meet you,”
“I’m Anne and this is Gemma, Harry’s sister,” I could see the resemblance, she was so pretty and Anne was already so sweet.
“So you are Harry’s girlfriend?” Gemma asked with a smile.
“That’s me. I promise I won’t corrupt him,”
“It’s not him we are worried about,” Anne added with a laugh.
“He’s sweet, don’t worry. I couldn’t be luckier or happier,”
“Well we are happy he found such a beautiful girl, how old are you?”
“18. Why?”
“Just making sure he finally has a girlfriend closer to his age,” I laughed at Anne’s comment and sat down as One Direction was announced. I went to a One Direction concert once when I was 16, but it was different since I knew them now and was sitting next to their families and girlfriends and being a girlfriend of one. I would occasionally catch Harry smiling at me and I would just feel all bubbly inside every time.
Harry’s POV
After the performance we walked backstage where Danielle, Eleanor, and Johannah were waiting. Johannah gave all the other hug of congratulations before jumping into my arms.
“You did great!” She smiled, “All of you did!” She said and tuned to all of the other boys.
“Thanks,” I whispered and kissed her forehead.
“I’m so tired,” I wanted to stay with her but I was about to pass out from exhaustion. On the car ride home I rested my head on Johannah’s shoulder while she quietly sang along to the radio.
Johannah’s POV
Harry fell asleep on my shoulder. He looked even more perfect when he was sleeping, which didn’t seem possible. I was a long way home, so I rested my head on his soft hair. I hummed along to the radio and looked up at the stars as they blurred by. As we pulled up to our building, I gently shook Harry awake.
“We’re here,” I whispered,
“Huh? Oh, ok,” he said with his eyes half open as he lifted his head up from my shoulder.
“Sorry I fell asleep, I’ve been staying up really late and the performance wore me out,”
“It’s ok, I understand. You look cute when you are sleeping anyways,” Who was I kidding? He looked cute all the time. As we walked down the hallway I was just looking at Harry the whole time with a smile on my face.
“What?” he laughed, “Do I have something on my face?”
“No. I just can’t figure out why someone like you picked someone like me,”
“Are you crazy? You are everything I could’ve asked for,”
“You are the one who is crazy. Have you looked in a mirror? You are the most beautiful boy I have ever seen. You have eyes I could stare into for hours, a smile that makes every girl’s heart melt, and do I really need to say anything about the hair? You are Harry Styles, every girl’s dream, and who am I?”
“You, my dear, are Johannah Elizabeth. Harry Styles’ girlfriend,” he smiled and kissed me as he opened my door for me.

Part 10 of More Than This

Johannah’s POV
Liam put in Anchor Man. I knew almost every word to this movie but I would have to resist mouthing along. It was great to be with all the boys and just be able to hang out. I felt like I could be myself around them. I was excited to be friends with them and I didn’t even see them as being a famous boy band, they were just five crazy, silly loud teenage boys. I heard Harry whispering along with the words and I smiled to myself. The movie was ending and I was already dozing off and Harry playing with my hair wasn’t helping. I rested my head on his shoulder and shut my eyes. I don’t know how long I was asleep, but when I woke up, I was tucked into my bed still in my jeans and t-shirt. I heard my T.V playing and I groggily got out of my bed and stumbled into my living room. Harry was the only one there and watching a sitcom I didn’t recognize. He turned the volume down and looked at me and smiled.
“How did you sleep?”
“How long was I asleep? I feel so bad but I’m still not used to this extreme time change,”
“You have only been asleep for a few hours, the boys understand. Maybe we can do it again later when you don’t fall asleep two hours into it,”
“What time is it?”
“Only about 5 in the morning,”
“Why didn’t you go home with Louis?”
“I wanted to make sure you were fine, if you want me to leave I will,”
“Well I just want you to get some rest. Don’t you have to be on The X-Factor tonight?”
“Yeah, I guess I’ll get some rest and let you sleep,”
Harry’s POV
I kissed her goodbye and walked to my flat. Liam, Zayn, and Niall stayed the night at mine and Lou’s flat, They were all asleep on the couches and floor. I stepped over them as I walked to my bed and flopped face down out of exhaustion. I was woken up four hours later by the boys jumping on my bed bed and yelling, “Wake up sleeping beauty!”
“I’m up! I’m up!” I yelled as I threw off my covers.
“What time did you get back last night? Late night with the girlfriend, eh?” Louis nudged me and raised his eyebrows.
“Nothing happened, she fell asleep and I took her to bed. That was it, I just watched T.V and waited for her to wake up,” I walked to the living room and plopped on the couch.
“So you really like her, huh mate?” Liam was the only one who I could have a serious conversation with.
“Yeah, I do. She’s really great. I don’t know what it is about her,”
“I can tell you like her. You seem a lot happier since you met her. What are you going to do about the fans?”
“I want to wait a little while like you did with Danielle, and the fans seem to love her,”
“Good idea. Well, me and the lads were going to go get some breakfast if you wanted to come,”
“Sure,”

Part 9 of More Than This

Johannah’s POV
The place was perfect, I could see myself there. Singing at open mic night and serving coffee.
“It’s adorable,” I whispered
“Well let’s go get you a job!”
“I hope they like me,”
“Who wouldn’t? They’ll probably hire you right on the spot,”
He opened the door for me and I suddenly got nervous. I don’t know why, I was just picking up an application. It was just a coffee shop, but it was perfect. I had a feeling moving to London was the best decision I had ever made. I asked the lady at the counter if they were hiring and then, of course, had to explain my accent. I told her I had just moved here from California.
“Well?” Harry asked.
“I have an interview on Monday,”
“Great! I know you’ll get it. So do you want to go back home?”
“yeah. But I had an idea for tonight and I was wondering if it would work,”
“What is it?”
“I was thinking we should have a movie night at my flat with all the boys. I’ve only been spending my time with you, which I love, but I feel bad for leaving them out,”
“That sounds great, I’ll text the boys. Oh, and I wanted to talk to you about something,”
Harry’s POV
I got really nervous, I had been thinking about how I was going to say it all day, but I had to say it now, before tonight with all the boys around.
“What do you want to talk to me about?” She looked up with her big green eyes.
“Uh, well, I was wondering… I really like you, and I know it’s only been a few days… But I was wondering if you would be my girlfriend?”
A huge smile grew across her lips and turned to me and all she had to do was nod and kiss me hard on the mouth. She grabbed my hand and held on to it like she was afraid of me floating away if she let go. The rest of the way back to the apartment we talked about what we were going to do that night with the boys and playfully fought about who had better taste in movies. We got back to her flat and set up for everyone to come over. I was worried about how the guys would react to our relationship, but they all seemed to like her.
“What time are the boys coming?”
“7, they all went out shopping together,”
“We only have an hour?! Should we just order pizza?”
“Yeah, just get cheese ‘cause Zayn only eats chicken,”
Louis almost knocked down the door when he burst through.
“The party is here!” He yelled as he walked over to the couch.
“What movies are we going to watch? We can’t watch The Notebook, Haz will cry,” Niall laughed as he picked up a piece of pizza.
“Shut up! It’s sad and you cry too,”
“Yeah, but I don’t cry in almost every movie,”
“C’mon guys, lets just have a good night,” Johannah walked me over to the couch and sat on my lap.
“So, what, are you guys official now?” Zayn whispered in my ear. I just nodded and he nudged me in the arm with a grin on his face. I squeezed Johannah tighter, “What do you want to watch first?”
“I don’t really care, ask the boys,”
“Boys! What do you want to watch first?”
“Something funny!” Liam yelled, he got up and walked over to where the movies were laying. He put in Anchor Man and sat back down.
