"Look, I don't want to do this any more than you do," Taylor rolled her eyes as we walked out of Simon's office. Today, we just found out we'd be "dating" to promote our new album, Midnight Memories. I hated publicity stunts, I hated being forced into a relationship when I already have one.. With Y/n. And I know it hurts her when she sees me being papped with a different girl, being told that me and this girl are dating. I've asked Simon why me and Y/n couldn't come out, he said it'd be bad publicity and or numbers would drop. But I don't see why. I don't see how. Y/n is Paul's step daughter. And we've been out in public a number of times. Not alone, but people know of her. And I've been online; on twitter, tumblr and instagram. The fans love Y/n. They want us to be together, they've photoshopped pictures of us being together. I think coming out to the public would be amazing publicity and our numbers would skyrocket. Why can't our management see that?

For the next two weeks, me and Taylor need to be seen together before it coming out that we're dating.

"She's going in the back, you're going out the front. Simon said she needs to be lapped at your house." Paul frowned. Paul hates these stunts more than I do. He hates seeing Y/n cry and upset. He's her step dad, yeah, but Paul has taken care of her since she was a little baby. Y/n is Paul's daughter, no matter what anyone tries to tell him. He's tried fighting against these stunts as well, but he's been threatened more than once to be fired so he had no choice but to keep his mouth shut and roll with it.

The doors opened and I was blinded by the flashing lights of cameras and bombarded with questions. I only smiles, waved a little as Paul and Preston pushed passed, making a way to the car. I quickly got in the car and pulled my phone out almost immediately.

"Hello?" Her sweet voice answered. "Hi baby girl," I smiled. "How'd it go?" She asked. I sighed heavily. "We need to be papped together for two weeks. And today, she needs to be papped coming to ours," I could feel her frown. We were told this was gonna happen a few months ago.

"Today?" She asked. "Yeah, like we're on our way right now."

"Alright, I'll get the tea running."

"Y/n, I'm so sorry baby. You know I don't want to do this." I played with the rings on my index finger. "Don't say sorry, Harry. It isn't your fault."

"I'll see you when I'm home. I love you." She repeated my words and hung up.

A long, dreadful ride later, I was home. My heart pounded. I got out the car, seeing a small amount of people there. I smiled, took pictures and went inside.

Standing in the kitchen was my beautiful girlfriend of 2 years. I walked up behind her and kissed her neck. "Hello beautiful." She smiled and turned around in my arms. I stared into her eyes for a quick second before bending down and placing my lips tenderly on hers. I wanted to get as much as I could before Taylor showed up. Which wasn't much because not even a minute later, there was a knock at my door. I didnt pull away right away, I kissed Y/n a little longer before she pulled away. She gave me a forced smile before focusing her attention on whatever she had been doing before.

I walked to the door, and opened it seeing Taylor. Cameras went off. Y/n was sure to stay hidden. I gave a large, fake smile before reaching out to give her a hug and a kiss on her cheek.

"Ew, Styles, not so much." She hissed in my ear. I brought her in quickly before closing the door.

"Taylor, this is my girlfriend, Y/n. Y/n, this is Taylor." I walked over and wrapped my arm around Y/n's waist. Taylor gave a large smile and held her hand out to shake Y/n's. "I'm making tea and cookies if you'd like some?"

"Oh, I'd love some! They smell delicious," Taylor sat herself in the living room. I walked over to her and sat across from her on our other couch.
