After sometime,Harry returned. I stood up and asked where he went but he simply said that wasn't important.I tried to take a step forward,tripped on something and fell into his arms.
We stood there for minutes looking into each other's eyes with his arms around me.It was as if we were in one of those cheesy romantic movies
Before I could break the ice and speak,I felt his soft pink lips gently pressed against mine.He gently sucked my lower lip while pulling me closer and then it hit me,that was my first kiss.
My world stood still.I couldn't move,my heart was racing and I didn't know how to react.Suddenly,Vero appeared and said it was time to go home.I didn't want to leave but to avoid Vero suspecting anything,we said goodbye to Harry and left.
That night all I could think of was my first kiss and the fact that it was with my bestfriend.I had mixed feelings about the whole thing.
The next day I couldn't concentrate at school.I wanted to get home and speak to Harry.He had called the night before but I was too confused to speak to anyone.Especially him.
When I got home,I called him and we started off casually,then things got weird when I brought up the kiss.He said he was inlove with me and wanted me to be his girlfriend.
I didn't know if I loved him or not so I turned him down.I told him I wasn't really into him like that and also I wasn't ready for a relationship.He said he understood and wouldn't bring it up again until I was ready.
The following few weeks was a little awkward.Harry was always sad or depressed.It was killing me inside to see him acting all sad and pitiful cause I felt responsible for it.
Months passed and it was almost time for Christmas and a carols night was going to be held at school.This time they invited five schools.After the new year I'd be in second year so I was really excited.
During the carols night,Harry sat next to me and was cracking nonsense jokes throughout the night.We were all urged to come back to the school the night before new year.
When we were about leaving for home that night,a tall brown skined guy came up to me and introduced himself as Desmond.He asked for my number but before I could say anything,Harry came and pulled me away.
I got pissed and asked him why he did that but he just smiled and said it's not good to give out my number to every guy that asks for it.He was just looking out for me but I didn't like how he just pulled me away.
He noticed I was a little pissed,pulled me in for a tight hug and said he was sorry.I hugged him back and said I forgave him. When we pulled out of the hug,he kissed me on the cheek and we went home.
The next day,I went shopping for the new year school party with my girls.I had alot of fun.
The time for the party arrived and surprisingly I arrived early.I sat down to wait for my girls and Harry when someone came to sit next to me.It was Desmond.
He asked who was the guy who pulled me away last time and I told him it was my bestfriend.He looked at me weirdly.Clearly wondering if I was telling the truth or not.
He gave me his number so we get to know each other better and took mine as well.He was about to tell me his school when Harry suddenly appeared."You're in my seat",he said with anger in his voice.
"Relax Harry.He was just leaving",I said as I gestured Desmond to just go.He stood up and sat behind us.The party started soon after and when it was at it's peek,Harry fell asleep and placed his head on my shoulder.
I moved his head and placed it on my labs so he'd feel comfortable.He slept till it was 11:59pm and I woke him up for the new year count down.
"5...4...3...2...1...Happy new year bestie!!!",I said as I turned to kiss him on the cheeck since we were both facing forward but he also turned for the same reason and we ended up kissing each other on the lips.
We both winced and stared at each other.Harry gave a slight smirk,held my hand and pulled me out of the party hall and into the garden.We stood under a tree when I noticed something strange.
