The Eternal Rose-Forever and Always.

Chapter 45.

Harry's POV.

I hope everything is going good there. I run my hand through my hair , tapping my foot constantly on the floor , biting my nails. Urgh. Why am I feeling so nervous?

And my phone rings.

"Hello? Louis? How'd it go?" I ask as soon as I received the call.

"Woah man. Hold your horses , let me at least recall what all happened there? She's good man. She really is." He says and my anger boils.

"What the fuck are you saying? I swear I will kill you Louis , quit playing games with me or you're so fucking dead!" I yell.

He laughs. "You're whipped Hazzah. I was just joking , calm down. Anyways , she is coming."

I sigh. A small smile forms on my lips. "Really?"

"Yeah. She was so stubborn at first but some blackmailing worked."

"Great." Finally.

"I am on my way. See you in 20." And he hangs up.

Now , I know the next thing to do.

I dial the number.

"Hello?" He says.

"Uh Hey Brent. Harry speaking." I say. Did I do the right thing by calling him?

"Harry. How did you get my number?" He asks.
I am regretting calling him.

"I have my ways. By the way I called you to talk about Crystal. That's obvious. So I need you to meet me."

" Today I can't. Its already evening. Tomorrow I am leaving." What?

"I thought you were leaving on Wednesday?" Crystal must have gone mad , I am sure.

"Change of plans. But whatever , if you wanna meet , tomorrow morning would be fine."

"Okay. Starbucks at 9:00 am. And listen Crystal shouldn't know about this." I hope he agrees.

"Whatever you say. But I hope you know what you are doing." He tells me. The last thing I need is a lecture from Crystal's best friend.

I don't know what to reply so I hang up. This is going to be more difficult than I thought.

Crystal's POV.

"Brent" I shout.

"Brent!"

"Brent!"

"Jesus ,Crystal? What's wrong?" He asks , worry flashing in his eyes.

"Hi." I stick out my tongue.

He raises his brows. "You called me for this?"

"Let me think." I tell him , pretending as if I am in deep thoughts. "Yeah. That's what I called you for. So hi."

"You're dead , you know right?" He says.

"Daddy's gonna kill me!" I scream.

"Look who's coming now?" He smirks.

"Who?" I ask , confused. I start taking steps backwards.

"Tickle monster." He evily laughs.

"Fuck" And I run. But he's so fast , he grabs my arm and I fall on the floor with Brent on top of me. He's tickling me so badly.
