I'm not gonna lie, I was nervous, if I said something that I wasn't supposed to... everything would be in jeopardy, it could end our careers. Fans would never trust us again if they found out we were a scam in the first place, even if we were for real now, we'd be seen as liars. 
                          
"So, Alex, I have a really important question to get started with, what's going on with the one and only Harry Styles?" Manuel asked me. 
                          
"The internet is blowing up with pictures of you two kissing at a club last night," Isabel added while the pictures displayed on the screen "Are you two back together?"
                          
"Well," I scratched the back of my neck pretending to be intimidated by the question, "Yeah, we've been trying to take things slow and keep it a little private, but I guess it's pretty obvious now," 
                          
"Oh my god," Isabel covered her mouth in excitement, "I'm really happy, you have no idea of how hard it was to hear that you had broken up,"
                          
"I've seen some crazy theories online, so please, tell us what happened? When? How? Why? We're all thrilled," 
                          
"Well, I did a few shows with Little Mix and all the boys, except for Harry were there for my first concert ever... they invited me to their show in London because I was going to be there for a month, and of course I wanted to go, it was a hard decision because I knew Harry was going to be there and I hadn't really talked to him after the breakup, but I've always been a huge fan and the other four boys are family to me, so I ended up going," 
                          
"I remember, there's a video that went viral, they were forcing you to scream something sexual," Isabel laughed and so did I, now every person in the fandom knew about that joke. 
                          
"Yeah, that was embarrassing," I laughed, "Seeing Harry there was... heart breaking, I also talked to his mom and realized I loved him like crazy, and then we talked for a while backstage... and thankfully, he was feeling the same way, so we decided to give it another try, we both felt like we were worth fighting for, so we took things slowly at a distance until we decided to get back together like... 2 weeks ago," 
                          
"I totally think you guys are worth fighting for," Isabel laughed, "So you've been together for two weeks now, why did you decide to keep it a secret?" 
                          
"Our relationship was public since the begging, we met at a party filled with paparazzi... it's crazy actually, there are pictures and videos of the exact moment we met," she nodded for me to go on, "And when we broke up a big part of it was all the attention and the public part of the relationship... it was getting really hard, so we decided it would be better if we kept it between us for a while and make things right, for us, just us..." 
                          
"We never really knew the reason that made you split, was it the media?" Manuel asked in surprise. 
                          
"Not exactly, but it did play a big part... Having the world judging isn't easy when you're not emotionally strong... we were both going through personal issues that we needed to work on by ourselves, and that break up did help us a lot, to understand what we wanted as individuals,"
                          
"What do you mean with individuals?" Manuel asked me.
                          
"Sometimes when you're in a relationship you see the other as an extension of yourself, and that's not healthy, you need to understand that you're two different people, with different personalities, dreams, quirks, goals, so... I'm thankful for that time I had to work on myself, but I'm also really happy I get to be with him again," 
                          
"Do you think the breakup made you stronger as a couple?" Isabel asked smiling, I could really tell she supported Halex, it was nice to have someone like her around for that specific interview. 
                          
"Totally, we missed each other, we learned new things about ourselves, and I think we also valued some things that we were taking for granted," Tina gave me a reassuring nod which meant I was doing great.
