New in town

Purple Rain

"Ethan why the fuck are you calling me?" I answer my phone with annoyance.

"Why have you been ignoring all of my calls?"

"Because I do not want to talk to you! Now tell me what you want before I hang up."

"I just want to talk"

"Goodbye Ethan"

"No Aubrey!"

I hear him say over the phone before I hang up. He has been calling me for the past two hours since I got home from New York. I don't know why I answered that last one, but hopefully he'll stop now. He is pathetic and I do not want to speak to him.

It's currently five in the evening and I am patiently waiting for the return of my boyfriend. I don't know what got into me, but right as I left the airport, I went to my grandma's house and got one of her recipes so I could make Harry dinner. I am the best girlfriend in the world! I am picking him up at the airport in a couple hours and I can't contain my excitement. I honestly don't know how next year is going to work if I can't go one week without him!

Aubrey stop thinking about next year! My conscience adds in. I really am getting better about not worrying over this too much.

I try to watch a movie to get my mind off of seeing him again, but my legs won't quit shaking! I'm interrupted by my phone ringing and my heart beats faster hoping it's Harry to tell me he just landed. God I really need to settle down, it was one fucking week.

And the excitement goes away when I see "douche bag" flash across the screen.

"Seriously Ethan, stop calling me! I do not want to talk to you"

"Aubrey can we just talk? give me ten minutes"

"Why should I? You definitely do not deserve it"

"I know, but please.."

I feel my phone vibrate, so I pull it away from my ear and see the text I have been waiting for from Harry.

"I have to go pick up my boyfriend. Do not call me again"

"Aubrey! Please just ten minutes. You don't have to talk, just listen."

The tone in his voice is something I have never heard. I almost forget who I'm talking to.

"I have to go Ethan"

"I am so sorry, Aubs, please"

I let out a deep sigh before making up my mind. He is never going to stop calling me if I don't give in.

"I really can't listen right now, meet me at The Coffee Bean tomorrow after school. Ten minutes... That's it"

"Thank you Aubs.. I'll be there"

I hang up the phone before cursing under my breath. Why did I just agree to this? But whatever, I finally get to see Harry tonight and I am ecstatic.

When I finally get through the traffic and make it to LAX, I park my car and jump out as soon as I see the tall, curly haired boy.

"Harry!" I run up to him and wrap my arms around him.

"Hey babe! Ahh I missed you!" He says before kissing me.

"Ma'am, sorry to interrupt, but this is a loading zone, so I'm afraid you have to either leave or go find a spot in the parking garage for your car." I hear a man say.

"Sorry sir, we'll be on our way" Harry says before wrapping an arm around my shoulder and guiding us back to the car.

"So how was New York?"

"Boring, but it was nice to see my dad... How was England?!"

"It was really great, all of my friends were there. But I wish you could have been there... My grand mum

is already dying to meet you" he chuckles.

"I guess you'll have to take me sometime.. Don't want to upset gran!" I joke, but in reality, I would like to go there with him sometime.

"So what have you been doing since you got home?"

"That's a surprise" I smile.

"Uh oh.." He jokes as we pull up to my house.

"You'll like it, well I hope!"

I grab his hand and lead him into the house and to the living room so I can finish up dinner before he sees.

"Okay wait in here!"

I pull the lasagna out of the oven and set the table and all of that fun stuff before I call him to join me in

the kitchen.

"You did not! Aubs, you're the best!" Harry comes behind me and wraps his arms around me as he sees the dinner on the table.

"I know! Well hold that thought until you try it" I laugh. "I've never made this before!"

Throughout dinner we talk about our thanksgiving break and how much we do not want to go back to school tomorrow. It's nice to have him back, to talk to him face to face and to see that smile. I know I'm in love with him, but it feels like everyday I fall harder and deeper for him.

"You have a quiz on this tomorrow, so make sure you study tonight!" I hear my psychology teacher say.

Everyone, including myself, groans at the thought of a quiz only two days after a week off from school. Thankfully it's the last period of the day.

"Do you wanna study for this after school?" Harry whispers to me.

"Yeah sounds good" I agree and continue taking notes. I decide to give myself a break and check twitter on my phone when I see a text from Ethan. Shit. I totally forgot that I agreed to meet him.

Can't wait to see you later.

Barf.

"Uh actually I have to go see my grandma, later tonight?" I say to Harry after the bell rings.

"Of course, tell her I say hi!"

"I will, love you"

"Love you too"

We kiss before walking our separate ways as school ends. Why did I just lie to him? It's not like I'm going on a date with Ethan or doing anything bad, I'm just listening to what bullshit he has to tell me. But if I tell him, he won't want me to go and then Ethan won't leave me alone. Whatever, I'll go and get this over with. No harm no foul.
