My phone buzzes on my lap as I drive home. I know you're not supposed to, but I looked at my phone, flicking my eyes to the message.

Harry: hey, can we talk?

I freeze and keep my eyes on the road, swallowing. What would he want to talk about?

I wait until I get home to answer, considering I was only around the corner. When I pull into my small flat, I open the message.

Me: hey

Harry: um, this is so weird

Me: why? because i'm your student and your messaging me about god knows what?

Harry: yes. yes that is correct.

Me: whatever it is, i probably want it too...

Harry: wait...really?

Me: maybe...?

Harry: depends what you want,
i was gonna ask if we could talk

Me: i think we need to again

Harry: about what?

Me: us, harry you know what about
as well

Harry: can we meet up? not like that,
just to talk?

Me: that's risky

Harry: it's not something I want
to talk about over text

Me: I'm kidding, yours?

Harry: yeah, if that's not risky

Me: it shouldn't be

He sends a message with his address and it was actually quiet close. I sigh and turn my car on and drive to his house, it was only about a 10 minute drive.

I park my car near his house and take my phone and keys. Do you ever feel awkward walking up to someone's house? I do.

His house was big, white and modern. It was a two story with a balcony and lots of windows, I could see into his room on the top with the balcony. Pillars holding it up with the front door underneath it.

This is his house?

God he must be rich. I swallow and walk up to the door, before I could even knock, he opens the door. I blink in startle and he folds his lips in a line to stop himself from laughing. "How did you know I was here?" I ask, fixing my brown hair.

He holds his phone out and I could see me in it.

"Security system," he shrugs, putting his phone back.  He's rich, like dirty rich. He stands out the way and I step in, his house was followed down a hallway, spiral stairs at the end of the house. "I'll show you around," he says softly.
