Harry’s POV:
I ran as fast as I could to the music room. When I reached it I saw Raychel sitting on the floor sobbing and shaking. I hate seeing her like this. I walked over to her and sat down hugging her tightly.
“Raych it is ok you are not loser.” I assured her hugging tighter.
“Har-ry I am a lo-s-ser.” Raychel stutter between sobs. She put her of hands on her so I wouldn’t see her cry. I grabbed her hands and look into her eyes.
“Raychel listen to me. You are not a loser. You’re my best friend. You are the funniest person I know. You are bestest best friend I could ever ask for!” I told her. Her tears finally stopped and she smiled.
“I love you Haz.” Raychel said as she hugged me.
“Thank you for sticking up for me.” She whispered to me while I was hugging her.
Raychel’s POV:
The lunch bell rang and lunch was over. Thank god I thought. It was the first day and Danielle was already bullying me again. The music walked in the class with a strut. I love Ms. Higgins she was my favorite teacher. She stood in front of the class smiling.
“We are going to have a Back to School performance.” Ms. Higgins smiled.
“You can sing, do a duet, or play an instrument. It is your choice.” She finished. I looked over at Harry we she said a duet.
“We should do a duet Harry.” I whispered.
“Raych you truly are my best friend because you read my mind.” He laughed. I was so excited for the performance.
“Oh and by the way it will be on Friday so practice!” Ms. Higgins told us. Today was Monday so Harry and I had four days to practice. We had to pick a song to sing and fast. They bell rang and I walked out of class.
“Hey, Raych want to come over and practice after school?” Harry shouted while running trying to catch up.
“Yeah, sure thing Haz!” I said turning to him.
*Last Bell Rang at School*
Finally this school day was over I thought and shut my locker. Harry and I left school and headed to Harry’s house. After the 10 min walk we were there. I loved his house even though it was basically the house as mine it just has a great vibe.
“What song should we sing?” Harry asked while opening his fridge grabbing two waters.
“I was um thinking Two is Better Than One by Boys Like Girls.” I replied sheepishly.
“Yeah, I love that song!” He yelled excitedly.
“Let’s practice!” Harry said running into his living run. I followed him behind. We sang the song perfectly.
“Wow Haz. That was amazing!” I told him which made him blush.
“What can I say I’m just that awesome!” He yelled cockily.
“I can’t wait for Friday!” I laughed.
*Friday Night *
“Next up is a duet. Give a round of applause for Harry and Raychel.” The announcer said into the microphone. Harry and I walked on stage and then the music played in the background.
(Press the play button on the side ->)
Harry took a deep breath and began singing.
I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought hey
You know, this could be something
'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes my breath away
And now I'm left with nothing
I joined in for the chorus.
So maybe it's true that I can't live without you
And maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one
Now I was my turn I took a deep breath. Harry was looking at me smiling giving me a thumbs up. Then I began singing.
I remember every look upon your face
Then it was Harry.
The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste
You make it hard for breathing.
It was my turn again.
'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay
I'm finally now believing
Then we came together to sing again.
Then maybe it's true that I can't live without you
And maybe two is better than one
But there's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one
Harry took one last deep breath for his last solo.
I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought, hey (hey, hey)
We reached for each other’s hands. Then, we sang the end of the song.
Maybe it's true that I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking, ooh, I can't live without you
'Cause, baby, two is better than one
There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
But I'll figure out with all that's said and done
Two is better than one, two is better than one
Harry lifted me up and spun me in our hug.
We bowed the walked off stage.
“You did great!” We shouted in unison.
“Alright so the best performance tonight gets to win the trophy.” The announcer began.
“The winner or should I say winner are Harry and Raychel Two is Better Than One!” The announcer shouted.
Harry hugged me so tightly.
“Harry you are squishing me!” I yelled. He left go and we went on stage and reached our trophy.
“So how long have you too been dating?” The announcer asked Harry and I. We looked at each other and laughed.
“We are just best friends.” Harry told the announcer laughing.
“Oh I am sorry. It’s just I thought you were. You guys have such great chemistry and you look at each other like I look at my wife.” The announcer interrupted Harry.
“Nope just friends.” Harry said with a smile then we walked off stage. What if the announcer was right? No he can’t be. Harry and I were just best friends nothing more. I think…
