The 2014 storm of fame raged, but Harry and you were the eye. Best friends since 2010, lovers since 2012, they were the band’s glue. At a chaotic New York gala, flashes blinded the crowd. Harry noticed you’s trembling hand, her forced smile. Before she could speak, her knees buckled. The world tilted. Harry didn’t hesitate; he swooped her up, shielding her from the screaming press, his heart hammering against his ribs. He carried her to the quiet dark, his hands gentle on her face. When she stirred, he whispered, relief washing over him, the other boys rushing in behind them.
