Song For This Chapter:

Sex (catching feelings)- Eden

"And I've always been this heartless
And we were just having sex no I would never call it love
But love
Oh no, I think I'm catching feelings
And I don't know if this is empathy I feel
Just hold on"

Darlene's POV:

"Don't take this the wrong way, but why are you here?" I say laughing as Harry hands me the drink in his hands

He just shrugs and I swear he looks all shy and shit, "I don't know just wanted to see you" He says looking at the ground, only looking back up to me when he finishes his sentence.

I smile at his statement before walking over the couch to sit down, he follows without me having to say anything.

Despite everything that happened the other day, I don't feel as awkward about everything as I thought.

"Brownie point by the way" I say smiling as I look to him.

He has a triumphant smile on his face, "If that gets me brownie points I'll buy you one everyday"

The comment fills my stomach with butterflies. How can he say shit like that and not realize how fucking cute it is. I swear he doesn't even try half the time.

"I'm still mad at you though" I say giving him a serious look. If he thinks buying me a starbucks drink is going to erase all of my anger he is far from right. But he does make it really hard to stay mad, it's dangerous. I have to keep reminding myself everything he's done. If I was looking at the situation as an outsider I would be telling the person in my position to leave, to run for the hills.

"I know" He says sounding a bit defeated, but he knows he has to give me time. None of this is going to get resolved in a day.

"Wanna watch Titanic?" I blurt out, I wasn't planning for him to come over. I don't mind that he's here but I didn't get to mentally prepare a list of activities, we can't just sit on my couch in silence.

Harry looks amused at my sudden outbursts before nodding his head. Hey, I suggested the movie he wanted to watch the other night when Maya and Niall were here. At least I know it's one he likes.

"Just so you know Leonardo Dicaprio is in my top 3 of my celebrity crushes" I say as I go to grab the remote to find the movie. I bought it since I do actually watch the movie fairly often.

"Great Tom Holland and now Leo, maybe we shouldn't watch it" He says in sarcasm.

"No! It's already decided, I was just giving you a heads up because you're going to witness me freak out a little bit"

Harry just raises an eyebrow at me, does he not think I'm serious? He shouldn't after seeing how Maya and I reacted when we were watching Spider-Man.

I put the movie on, turning off the lights for a movie theater effect. The film is three hours but I find every single minute entertaining.

"Let me just say this real quick" I say after I take a sip of my drink. Harry turns to me taking his attention away from the screen. It's just the part where the men find the safe with the drawing of Rose, it's not too important if you've seen the movie already.
