Harry and I don't get many questions written out by the time class ends due to our personal conversation.

When the bell rings Harry and I start to walk out of the classroom but we stop when mr. Grey calls my name

"Alison can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Alone please" asks mr. Grey and looks at Harry.
I also look at Harry for approval because we were supposed to walk together to the soccer field.

Harry nods
"I guess ill just wait outside then" says Harry and walks out the door.

Mr. Grey shakes his head once Harry leaves

"He can be moody sometimes"

"Yeah I'm beginning to realize that" he laughs

Mr. Grey is awkwardly smiling at me

"So is something wrong?" I ask nicely hiding the fact that I want to leave

"No nothing's wrong I just wanted to check up on you, speaking of checking up on what happened to your eye?" He asks

I let out a breath in my head annoyed from the numerous times this question was asked

"It was a dance accident" I reply

"Hopefully it will heal soon" he says walking up to me

"Yeah hopefully" I look down.
"But if that's all I should probably get going Harry's waiting for me" I say as I walk backwards slowly

"Wait one more thing. Speaking of Harry how are you two doing?"

"What do you mean?" I ask with a glimpse of hope that our relationship is obvious

"Well last week when you, well." Mr grey stutters.
I frown as I suddenly remember our little debate with each other.

"Oh yah that, we're perfectly fine"

"Well I was going to ask if you would like a partner change, I'm willing to break the rules for you Alison." He smiles

"No" I immediately reply, and mr grey tilts his head in confusion.
"We are actually getting along."

Suddenly there's a pound on the door that startles me.
I jump of course.

"Ali hurry up I'm gonna be late for practice." Harry groans.

"I've got to go" I stand up

"Yah you better get on with it" laughs mr. Grey and I awkwardly smile.

"Bye mr. Grey thanks for checking up on me." I smile and open the door.

When I open the door I find Harry leaning against the wall fully annoyed and I bite my lip with nervousness.

"Bye miss. Gilbert I'll see you tomorrow."

I smile and walk out the door.

"Sorry about that" I apologize to Harry

Harry nods and then gestures for me to walk

"He's fucking weird" says Harry bluntly

"No he's not" I reply in defense and Harry laughs in disagreement
"He was just checking up on me"

"Mhmm" replies Harry
I roll my eyes

"So how longs your practice?" I ask to change the subject.

"An hour and a half, is that okay?"

"Yeah totally! I'll just watch and get some of my homework done."

"Nerd" Harry smiles at me and continue to walk together in silence until we reach the athletic building, Harry runs to the building and says
"Hey I'm gonna get dressed, just go out through those gates over to the bleachers"

"Okay" i reply and walk through the gates

Harry comes out with the rest of the team about five minutes after I sit down. Oh my God he looks so cute. He is running around and practicing kicking. I love that thing he does always pushing his hair back after every move he makes. He is constantly glancing up at me I think he keeps checking to see if I'm still here. Occasionally when he knows I catch him looking at me he will smile but usually he just looks away. I smile every time. I don't get much homework done because I'm constantly watching Harry. He is really good at soccer like really really good.
Finally once practice is over it's getting dark and I start walking to the athletic building to wait in the hall.
All the boys walk out and Louis stops to talk to me.

"Hey what are you doing here?" he asks as he plasters the biggest smile on his face

"Im waiting for Harry, we have to work on a project"

"Oh what-?"
Louis gets interrupted by Harry

"Ready?" Harry asks not even looking at Louis

"Yeah" I respond

"Well come on then let's go" Harry says sharply as he air gestures me to come on.

Louis is looking at the ground uncomfortably

"Bye Louis I'll see you tomorrow, you did really great." I smile trying to break the awkward glare Harry's probably giving Louis and I.

Louis laughs and shakes his head
"Thanks, see ya later Alison." He says and waves as he runs over to his teammates.

I run over to Harry who as already started walking.

"You're really good" I blurt. And Harry looks at me
"At soccer" I add

"Oh thanks" he smiles slightly

"Like really really good" I blurt out again
Harry smiles at the floor then we get in the car and drive silently. I have to stop myself from dozing off.
