He honestly wasnt that bad. After hearing stories of his childhood and listening to him sing for me a few times. I have came to the conclusion he was my only friend at the moment. He was funny.. not hilarious. but he made me laugh. So he was pretty fucking funny. He was different from other good looking guys. He had a vision for the world. He didnt want to become famous... or be a doctor. He wanted to travel.. make friends here and there and make memories everywhere.
" Ya know, i never got your name... i gave you mine when you went off on me. But you never gave me yours. " i said to him.
" well. Im Sebastian." he said with a smile.
" ok well how about you give me your real name, ass."
" hey hey hey. name calling is never ok. " he replied.
" well. im just gonna call you ass until you tell me your real name " i laughed.
" Ok, fine. Im Harry" he said holding his hand out to shake mine.
" put your hand down Harry. I dont shake hands. " i laughed at him.
" well ok, so Rem. what takes you to London??" he asked
" I thought i already told you??? Wild hair? Crazy unexpected trip? we discussed this?" i said
" Ohhhh well. I mean what pushed you. Happy people dont just leave their home. Especially a trip half way around the world.. something must have really got to you , ya know??" he said. Damn.. this boy way good. I looked at him with my eyebrows furrowed.
" well umm.. yeah my parents. They finally got to me i guess. The whole pushing me to go to college thing .. wasnt really working. so. i left" i replied, shrugging my shoulders.
" Ohhhh. That had to have sucked. My mom was never like that. she was more of a " go your own way" kinda mom. " he said.
" So why are you leaving???" asked.
" Im originally from London. But my parents divorced when i was 3.. so we moved to New york. Now that im old enough and had enough money i figured i better start going my own way" he said
without thinking i replied " i like that" ... he just looked at me.. and i looked and him. Then he continued to look at me... and I continued looking at him. By this time my cheeks are a crimson red and in my head im beating myself down for the lack of communication from my brain to my mouth.
" yeah... yeah... " i said then looked away breathing out.
" welll" we both said in unison.. we laughed.
" i think im gonna go to sleep.. we have a while left" i said.
" feel free to use my shoulder.. i mean if you want. i dont want you to feel forced. you can lean the other way.. or use my should. ya know.. do whatever you want. i think ill go to sleep too" he finished breathing out. Clearly mad at himself for rambling on.
" ok " i smiled, leaning my head over on his shoulder.
" Rem... helloooooo. Earth to Rem. We're here. We're in London." harry was whispering in my ear. I looked up and stretched. Smiling from the nap i had. i grabbed my bag and followed Harry off the plane. Letting out a small scream when my feet touched London for the first time. Harry looked at me and smiled.
" Who knew London could make a girl so happy" he said.
" Gosh... this is so... new" i said trying to tame my smile. He didnt reply.. only smiled at me.
" Well Harry.. It was a lovely ride. Im glad i got to meet you. See you some other time. ok??" i said. His smile faded.
" umm ok. yeah . you too Rem" he said. waving goodbye i walked off. Not knowing where i was going ... i walked.
" Remm!!! Rem wait up! " i turn around to see yet again.. Harry. He was running to catch up to me.
" Harry. what are you doing?" i asked uncertian as to why he wasnt going to do whatever he came here to do.
" ya know, im hungry. Like really hungry. So what do you say we go get something to eat?? he said .
" Harry. Dont you have something to do?? Like a reason for coming here? i asked.
" ummm yeah. i do. but uu-umm I, ya know. Im hungry and i have no one else to eat with. Food is always better with company. " he replied. I honestly couldn't disagree. So i gave in. We got pizza and walked around. Harry telling me stories of little things he remembered during the little time he lived here.
" Hey Harry?" i said
" Yes Rem??" he said
" Why are you really here? like your real reason??" i asked him. He chewed his pizza then went to say something only to stop himself. He looked to be in thought.
" you dont have to tell me. I mean i just found it odd that you didnt go on your way when we landed. I dont even have a plan and i was going.. but you didnt?" i said.
" Honestly.. I just need something new. I just needed a new me, a new place. New faces. I mean i told you my mom was never the type to push me one way. But I felt like New York just wasnt for me. I needed to find somewhere for myself. " he said.
" Ohh.. so this is an unexpected trip??" i asked him.
" well... yeah. I got my ticket 3 days ago." he said. I playfully nudged his arm.
" You ass. you drilled me for having an unexpected trip!! and yet.. you had one!!" i laughed.
" i know i know. and hey. you said you wouldn't call me that after i told you my name" he said
" yeah yeah. ok " i replied
" Im not sure Rem. i guess its just you were so open about it. Like i kinda had a plan. This is how i find me. This is how i find myself. Yet, you.. you dont know what you're doing . Where you're going.. or what you're gonna find.. but you're happy. I envy you for that. I wish i had the courage in myself to just go. Like you didnt even pack" he said looking at me.
" Harry... you do have the courage. Just because you bought the ticket before hand doesnt mean you were ready. Did you get a house before you came??"
" well no.." he said
" ok, did you get a job before you came??" i asked again.
" umm.. no. i didnt. " he said unsure of where i was going with the questions.
" ok then... that alone is having courage Harry. Dont beat yourself down over this" i said .
" Hey Rem ?" he said.
" yeah??" i asked.
" where ya staying tonight??
" Depends where you're staying." i replied.
