Ruined h.s. (AU)

Four.

*Unedited*

She's something I will never get use to, so much happiness in one person compared to her. Whenever I'm with her, I feel like I've finally awoken from being dead for years, I feel different. I want to be different for her; I want to make her as happy as Delilah makes me feel everyday that I am with her. Sometimes I just want to disappear and never come back, but now that Delilah is in my life, I want to live, I want to be a normal twenty year old male; clubbing, drinking and being with my girl. She's so beautiful, and she's mine but she shouldn't be mine. I'm not good for her; I'll ruin her.

I quietly followed him down the street, you could hear his shallow breaths as he held his arms by his side with clenched fists, what is he doing? The rain started to fall heavier and I pulled the hood of my jacket over my head as he started jogging.

"Harry!" I called and he stopped suddenly.

He turned around slowly, his eyes wide as he stared at me, I could see tears on his cheek and my heart ached, why is he crying? I took a step towards him and he took a step back, why am I even here?

"What do you want?" Harry asked, his lips pressed into a line as he folded his arms across his chest.

"I saw you walking in the rain, I wanted to know if you were alright," I replied as I took another step towards him.

"Why would you care if I was okay? You don't even know me and I don't like it when people try to stick their noses into other peoples business, it's rude," Harry said, his mood changing instantly.

The rain made his long curly hair stick to the side of his face and his green eyes looked beautiful when everything else was dark, I shook my head, why does he think no one could care about him? Even if he is a p.rick.

"Whatever Harry, do you need a ride?" I replied rolling my eyes at him.

"I've managed so far on my own, I don't need your help Delilah."

I watched him as he walked away confused about why his moods suddenly change all of the time. I sighed rubbing my eyes before turning around and making the long walk back to where I left my car.

It's summer and it's p.issing it down with rain. I was quickly welcomed with a warm embrace as I walked into the coffee shop, the smell of fresh coffee beans, muffins and pastries filled my senses and I sighed a small smile coming onto my face. I shoes squeaked as I tried to walk over to the counter without slipping over, as I waited in line I see Kelsey walk in and smile at me before sitting down. After I ordered both of our drinks I walked over to where Kelsey was sitting down and I sat down across from her.

"How was dance practice?" Kelsey asked as she handed me the money to pay for her drink, as she knew I couldn't afford for both of our drinks.

"The usual," I pause trying to think if I should tell her about the Harry incident. "Except, once I left the studio I saw Harry walking and I decided to follow him-"

"You followed him?"

"No, that sounds weird, I wanted to see if he was alright and he just blew up in my face," I sighed. "Why is he like that Kels?"

"I don't have the right to say what happened since I don't even know the whole story, Niall just told me that it had something to do with someone close to him, and no wonder he blew up in your face, he obviously wanted to be by himself," She pauses while she looks around the coffee shop. "I can't believe you followed him in the middle of the night."

"It was just Harry, it wasn't like he's a stranger."

"He is a stranger Delilah, you know nothing about the bloke."
