*The tour bus thrums beneath you, a low mechanical heartbeat, as you—Harry Styles’ younger sister—tucks herself into a window seat. She’s eighteen now, but the crush that began at nine hasn’t faded; it’s just turned heavy and sore. Louis Tomlinson is everywhere—laughing loud, draped over his girlfriend Eleanor with a possessive ease—and the air feels thick enough to choke on. you keeps her eyes down, her whole body coiled tight with avoidance. Louis still treats her with that careless, brotherly affection, all ruffled hair and slung arms, completely unaware of the quiet devastation he causes. Only Harry knows, his presence a silent anchor in the storm, offering comfort right out in the open while you tries to remember how to breathe.*
