Chapter 27

February 13, 2019

Skylar's POV:

I'm currently sitting at the island in the kitchen annotating Ugly Love. I don't know what's up with Harry, but he's obsessed with this fish that he bought. Harry adores that fish, I don't know what it is but he's extra cheeky. Claims the fishes name is Eroda because it's adore spelled backwards. Adore has been a word he's been using a lot. I honestly have so many questions but any time I ask he dodges them. Ki and Niall are supposed to be on their way here. Kiara wants to go bowling. I hate bowling with Harry. He rubs it in my face every time he gets a strike. Exactly what Stella would do. I roll my eyes thinking about it. Even with Stella not here.. she's still here I think to myself while watching Harry dance around with the fish bowl in his hands.

"Walk in your rainbow paradise.." Harry quietly sings with a smile on his face. He's in his own little world as he hums some song. But I've never heard this song or heard him listen to it.

"You little tease! Are you singing a new song!" I yell making Harry snap his head towards me with panic in his eyes. The fish bowl slides out of his hands landing on the floor. I jump out of my chair as Harry yells.

"Get the fish Harry don't just stare at it!" I yell running towards him. He just sits there like he's hesitant.

I grab the fish trying to figure out what to do. Harry loves this fish. I know it's just a fish but it makes Harry happy.

"Get the coffee pot and rinse it out fast! Now, hurry!" I yell snapping him out of whatever trance he was in. He jumps up running towards the coffee pot. He quickly dumps it out and rinses it out. He puts water into it and checks the temperature of the coffee pot before walking back over. I release the fish into the water and I feel relieved seeing the little fishy swim around.

"We're gonna need a new coffee pot." Harry says watching the fish swim around.

As Harry and I are sitting on the kitchen floor Niall walks in and sees Harry holding the coffee pot.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Harry dropped the fish bowl almost killing the fish!" I point at Harry.

"You caught me off guard! You can't ask questions like that when I'm holding the fish Skylar Michelle!"

"Two can play at that game Harry Edward! Answer my question," I smirk tilting my head with my arms crossed.

Niall is just standing in the kitchen watching Harry and I go back and forth.

"It might be a new song and no you can't hear it. It's not done yet." He stands up sitting the coffee pot onto the counter.

"That's never stopped you before. You always play me songs. I mean you don't have to if you don't want to." I shrug walking over to Niall as Harry grabs stuff to clean his mess.

"Okay well I don't want to right now. Maybe after it's finished... maybe."

I won't lie that kinda hurt. I'll get over it. It's just a song that my best friend doesn't want me to hear. It's fine he will eventually. Something is definitely up with him. I decide to leave the conversation at that. I grab onto Niall's hand, grab my book and head for the stairs.

Once we finally make it into my room I shut the door and stand against it.

"That was weird right? I mean you haven't seen much of how Harry and I are around each other. But that was weird. He's my best friend, I can tell when somethings off. Do you think he's hiding something from me? Oh my god I'm talking too much," I shake my head as I watch Niall just stare at me with a smile.
