i'm praying

14th August 2019

"I don't care what you have to do, stop her!" I half-screamed at my manager, Jeffrey Azoff, over the phone.

"Harry, she's threatening to release stories about you and Jade. I-."

I heard something outside of Jade's room and I opened the door to take a peek.

"Jeff, hold on." 

The hotel's housekeeper is busy going around cleaning up other guests' room. I know I can't head downstairs to ask for a spare key to my room in my pyjamas. Jade is still asleep, it is anyway only 7 in the morning. We aren't supposed to check out until 11 am. However, I couldn't risk having the rest finding out I spent the night in Jade's room. I don't mind them teasing me but I know Jade will get flustered by it. The only option I have is to somehow get the key to my room and move my bag to Jade's room.

I know, I could have just stayed in my room, but I didn't want Jade to wake up and see me missing, you know? I don't want her to think I abandoned her.

"I'll call you back later." 

I took Jade's spare key at the table and headed outside, where the housekeeper had just finished cleaning up. I smirked when I saw that it was a young lady. Marie, I read her nametag.

"Hey," I greeted, leaning against the wall beside her.

"Good morning, sir," she greeted back, a cordial smile on her face.

"Have anyone told you, you look beautiful today?" I shot her my dimpled smile, hoping it will melt her away.

"I tell myself that every day," she replied with her thick French accent.

Shit, this isn't working.

"See, I have a problem," Marie glanced at my boxer briefs. She scoffed when she sees it.

"You sure do. Do you need some enlargement pill?" 

I glared at Marie, who was insinuating that my brother is small.

"I'll have you know that I'm plenty. Every girl are satisfied with me," a coy smile made its way to my face.

"Sure, if you insist." Marie went back to arranging things on her trolley. 

"I'm locked out of my room," I pointed at my room, "I had to sleep in my friend's room. I just need to take my stuff and I won't bother you."

"No, what if you're lying?"

"I don't lie about this. I am Harry Styles, for goodness sake."

I watched as Marie had a nonchalant look. "So?"

"Look, just help me to open the door alright, I'll bring you out for lunch or something."

"Fine, I'll help you. It's only cause I know you celebrities have your own room." Marie started walking to my room and opened its door. I mentally cheered when I realised I managed to convince her.

I quickly entered my original room and grabbed my bag and the hotel key card, that's the only properties I have. I went out to see Marie standing outside, boredom on her face.

"The lunch," I started, trying to think of an excuse so that I could cancel it.

"Don't bother, I'm lesbian," Marie said and continued with her job, ignoring me who was left gaping in the hallway.

Wow. I clearly do not do great with rejections.

I entered Jade's room and see that she was still sleeping peacefully, even snoring lightly. My phone started to buzz, informing me that Jeffrey is calling me again.
