Paris At Midnight (H.S)

Chapter Twelve

Harrys POV

I don't know why I wanted to talk to her. She pisses me off endlessly.

I still wanted the taste of her lips though. Nothing else. I didn't care to know her. She tasted good though.

Like I said. She is simply prey in a game of predators and I happen to be one of them.

"In all honesty, I don't feel like speaking with you Harry." She retaliated.

I clenched my jaw and released her hand. She wanted to be a bitch and be stubborn than i'll let her. Im not going to beg her to fucking talk to me.

I refuse to ever beg her for anything.

"I wanted to have a civil conversation but seems as though your too good for that." I bark back as I turn around to leave.

"Im sorry.." She barely whispers out. I knew me saying that would make her feel bad. Shes too kind for her own good. I couldn't help the smirk that pulled on my lips for a split second. It went away quickly though as I turned back to her.

I just nodded at her apology. She had no reason to apologize yet she did. Shes quite pathetic.

She can't even stand her ground.

"Lets talk Little Blossom." I tried to speak not as harsh. Though I didn't know if it came out like that or not.

She nodded and stepped outside the banquet with me. Fresh air felt nice. I liked being able to feel the chilled breeze on my face.

"I asked you if you wanted me too touch you earlier and you said yes. You can't keep throwing that shit in my face when you get upset with me." I look at her as the words leave my lips.

She looked at me delicately to my surprise. "You're right, I did want your touch and I'm sorry if I kept throwing it in your face that wasn't my intention at all Harry."

She had absolutely no reason to apologize yet she was. In all honesty it caught me off guard. I didn't let her know that though.

I looked at her and pinched my lip between my fingers gently thinking of what to say.

"Your'e deep in thought huh?" She spoke quietly.

I just nodded in her direction and then met her eyes with my own. "You didn't need to apologize a minute ago y'know." She looked confused by my words. "Didn't you want me to apologize?" She asked in confusion.

I groaned in annoyance. "No Violet. I just wanted you to stop throwing shit in my face. I didn't ask for a damn apology." The words sounded harsh as they left my lips and I could tell she didn't want to say anything after that.

She nodded and the. let her gaze fall on the ground. "I should probably get back... Calum is probably waiting for me inside.." She whispered out just enough so I could hear.

I looked at her even though she wasn't looking back. "Are you upset now?" I could tell she was without even asking. Though I felt I needed too ask.

"No i'm not, I just don't feel like I should be out here with you for any longer to be quite honest." She says quietly. She barely has enough confidence to even speak up. Shes like a insecure puppy who is never sure. Its pathetic to see.

"Whys that Little Blossom? Scared to be around me now?" I couldn't help the smirk that pulled on my lips and at the corners of my mouth. "You should be." I whisper the last part only for me to hear.

She took her gaze off the ground and looked at me dead in my eyes. "Im not scared of you. You haven't given me a reason to be. Being an asshole doesn't make you scary Harry." She said with confidence. It surprised me and caught me off guard.

I clenched my jaw because she pissed me off. She thinks she can talk to me however she wants. She can't. "You should watch how you speak to me." I wanted her to know that as well.

She looked at me and bit the inside of her lip as if she was trying too think through. "Don't tell me how to act." She spoke looking at my eyes. She wasn't as pathetic after all. Maybe she did have a spec of confidence.

I couldn't help the laugh that left my lips. "Getting brave now are we darling?" I spoke with a sly smirk as I made my way over to her.

Inches away from her I smirked and chuckled at her. She seemed upset with me though. She was still pissed. I could tell. She didn't have to say anything for me to know that.

"No I'm just not going to hold back just like you don't. You act like a asshole and I know I am too kind. I am too kind for my own good and I know that. I trust to easy and don't think with my head like I do with my heart. Im easy to take advantage of and I trust people easy and thats my downfall, but do not ever think that you can step on me like you own me." She spoke with her fist clenched slightly at her sides.

I had no words. Nothing of what she said was un true nor wrong. I just would have never have expected her to be utterly honest about it. In a way it pissed me off. I don't like her being so honest with me. I didn't ask her to nor want her to.

I just turned on my heels and started walking away. As I was walking back in I made sure to speak loud enough for her to hear me. "I was right. You are pathetic." I say bluntly as I walked inside. Leaving Violet to herself outside.

As the banquet was wrapping up I went back over to Violets painting display to have one last look. Though I didn't expect to see the Little Blossom taking her painting off the display.

"Taking the trash down darling?" I say with a smirk. I was being sarcastic slightly. She was talented, but I wanted to hurt her.

She looked at me and barely smiled. A sad smile in the least.

"Yeah I guess I am." She said calmly. It caught me off guard. She agreed with me.

I furrowed my eyebrows.

"So you agree?" I ask just as calm as she was. I couldn't help but be surprised. I didn't show it though.

She nodded. "I do. I didn't want to be in the banquet anyway. I didn't earn it myself. There were many other people who deserved it over me. Your right. I am pathetic." She smiled a fake and small smile as she grabbed her painting and went towards the exit.

"Have a good night Harry and thank you for the opportunity." She said as she walked out calmly.
Out of the door and into the night.

That was it.
