Deception - H.S

Chapter 42

This is one of my favorite chapters hehe... We are in for a ride ;)

Harry Styles

After arguing and yelling for what felt like hours but was only one hour, I convinced her into me tagging along wherever she was going. She obviously preferred driving there because she asked Niall to borrow his car and I had a car so it was easy to convince her. I also guilt trapped her saying I was being nice and paid for her books and she couldn't even let me go out with her when I was all alone and bored. That was a lie, obviously, but my manipulation skills worked well on her, she was easy, almost too easy.

I just wanted to see what she wanted to do in her alone time, I was curious and honestly had nothing better to do since I didn't go to the drop-off.

She fussed about it, a lot, but I was better.

So, now we are in my car, driving to what seems like a park? The radio is on, music filling the air around us to get rid of the awkward silence as well as the anger radiating off her. Hope kept her gaze outside, taking in the scene while lip-syncing the words to herself, surprisingly she knew the words to every song that was playing and every here and then I could hear her singing a little louder.

After the entire drive being silent due to her being mad at me for coming along, we finally park in front of "Arcadia National Park" and I look at her for further instructions because I didn't know what she wanted to do here. Why the hell did she want to go to a National Park?

"Now what?" I question and she finally looks at me for the first time since we got in this car. Her hair was tied back in a low bun because of the wind blowing it everywhere, highlighting her features. The moonlight was making her skin glow, accentuating her cheekbones.

She sits her enormous backpack onto her lap and gives me a smirk, not a smile, a smirk. She was going to do something reckless, wasn't she?

I watch her open her backpack and shove her hand in to find something, her eyes were looking at the sky, her tongue poking out from the side of her mouth until she found what she was looking for and pulled out two small bottles of tequila. My eyes widen a bit and I was confused as to why she needed alcohol, was she going to light something on fire?

She hands me one and starts taking the cap off her own, "You are going to need it, or not, I don't know really but I need it." I watch her down the entire 50mL bottle in one go and shudder her body with disgust after which I do the same, my reaction not being as bad as hers because I was used to the burn.

Opening the door, she gets out of the car and carries the huge bag on her back, what even was in that? I do the same and follow her as she walked towards the big metal gates of the entrance. "You know the place is closed, right?" I yell at her from where I was and she turns around, walking backwards now to give me a wicked smile, "I know..." Pulling her hair of out the bun, she shakes her head a little and turns back.

She stands in front of the gate, staring at it while I caught up to her and stood beside her, "What are you even d-"

"Harry..." she interrupts my question, turning her head to look at me while holding onto the two straps of her backpack like a child, "Don't question it and don't tell anyone, pinky swear?" She holds out her pinky, "I don't do that shit." I shake my head at her.

She groans and rolls her eyes which made me want to bend her over the back of my car and spank her till her knees gave out, she knew I didn't like it but still did it. "Okay, at least reassure me that you aren't going to tell anyone?" I give her an approving nod and she claps her hands before putting a foot on the metal gate.

Putting both her foot on the base of the gate and her small hands on the vertical rods, she starts climbing the gate. "Hope Whitlock, are you breaking and entering?" I let out a dramatic gasp, speaking louder than normal which makes her stumble, my reflex being holding onto her hips, "Shhh! You said you wouldn't say!" she whisper-shouts at me while still holding onto the bars.
