Falling (H.S. X L.T.)

Chapter Two

Harry's Pov.
Once I got home I greeted my older sister Gemma, she was 19 and in college, but still lived with us, me and mom didn't mind though, it was nice having her around because me and mom didn't really get along well, so it was nice to have someone in the house to talk to.

"Hey mum." I said as I entered the kitchen, grabbing a water bottle from the fridge.

"Hey, how did school go?" She asked, she didn't really sound to interested though, so I just muttered a quiet 'fine' then walked into my room.

I flopped down onto my bed and let out a sigh that I felt like I had been holding in all day, I was tired from all the socializing, but I was happy, I made three new friends in one day so that's awesome, and I'm going to my first highschool party tonight so that's also a plus. 

I decided to shower before the party, just to wake myself up a bit, so that's what I did, I got into the shower and washed real quick, then got out and started getting ready, it said the party started at 5:30 and lasted until everyone left, and then it had an address below it. School got out at 4 and now it was 4:30, so I had a whole hour to get ready.

I decided on wearing a white button up shirt and black skinny jeans, I rolled the sleeves of my shirt up to my elbow and then ran my fingers through my mop of curls, trying to untangle some of them. I then swept it to the side like always and looked myself over in the mirror. I looked decent, so I decided I was ready.

I still had about thirty minutes until I had to leave, since I didn't have to get there right at 5:30. I decided to text Niall all the information about the party and just meet him there, since neither of us could drive yet.

I scrolled on my phone for around an hour before I decided to actually leave to the party, thankfully I recognized the street name and it wasn't too far, so I could just walk instead of having my mom drive me.

I walked out of my room and caught the attention of my mother, who was sitting at the kitchen table with papers all over it, she raised her eyebrows at my appearance.

"Where are you going?" She questioned, putting the pen she was holding onto the table and standing up.

"Its just a party, I know its a school night but people said it was a back to school tradition, I promise I'll be back before midnight." I rambled, giving her a pleading look.
She mauled it over in her head before giving in and telling me I could go, so I put my converses on and walked out the door.

It was a little chilly out but it didn't bother me that much as I started my walk to the address of the party. I wrapped my arms around myself to keep as much body heat as possible while walking, and eventually I reached the house, to be honest I could tell it was the right house before I even turned on to the street just because I could hear the music a little ways back.

I took a deep breath and texted Niall, asking if he was here yet, and I got a reply after about a minute saying he was already inside.

Without wasting anymore time, I walked into the house and was attacked by the smell of smoke and alcohol, it wasn't a pleasant smell, but I decided not to think about it. The house was practically shaking from the loud volume and high bass of the music that was being played and it felt kinda good to be in this atmosphere, it was odd, but I felt good at the same time.

I walked around looking for Niall when I bumped into Louis.

"Oh Hey sorry, I didn't even know you would be here." I gave an awkward smile, even though I had only known him for a few hours, I felt oddly comfortable around him already, and it was a good feeling.

"Of course I'm here, it's my last year and this is like, a tradition." He sent me his own smile.

I made an 'oh' sound and stood there awkwardly, my hands in my pockets.
