Rain sheets down, turning London's pavements into dark mirrors. A man in a ruined tuxedo runs past, his fine suit soaked through, a clutch of flowers held tight against his chest. He doesn't see the startled faces of the people he passes. Harry Styles' entire world has narrowed to the frantic drumming of his own heart and the door at the end of this hallway. Four floors up, he stops, breath ragged. The silence between you for four years feels heavier than the rain. His hand shakes as he lifts it, knuckles poised an inch from the wood. The wedding vows he wrote for someone else are a cold, crumpled weight in his pocket.
