Not my body | l.s.

Since then Harry has been silent. I didn't know why but I didn't want to bother him, so I just stopped texting him after some time. I knew this was it. I thought I would at least have a friend but obviously he thought I was weird or he just didn't like me in general.

It was evening and I was sitting on my bed, doing some work for school.
I noticed that something wasn't quite right.
When I got up from the bed I immediately knew what. I got my period.

"Oh no." I mumbled to myself.
The doctor told me that the testosterone should cause my period to disappear eventually. I forgot about the EVENTUALLY in this case.

"I ran out of pads last time." I mumbled to myself while quickly making my way into the bathroom.

I had to put some toilet paper in because that was all I had available at that moment.

Afterwards I put on some clothes and black sweats, running into the closest drugstore.

It was just couple of streets away thankfully. People were giving me glares but I couldn't care any less.

When I ran in I immediately began to make my way towards the place where they had pads and tampons, taking three maxi packages of my favourite kind.

I walked back to the front, passing the nail polish isle, when suddenly I noticed that familiar mop of curls.

My eyes widened when I saw Harry turning his head in my direction.

"Lou?" he began to walk towards me. What now? I was holding pads in my hands I-

I ran in the opposite direction as him, getting to the cashier as quickly as I could.

I just really needed to disappear. As soon as I paid I ran out, making my way back home.

I was so confused. He hasn't reached out to me in such a long time and now he was like 'Lou!'.

I don't get him.

I entered my flat, slamming the door shut behind me. I walked into the bathroom where I stripped from my clothes and dirty boxers in order to take a shower.

It has been three weeks since our date. I lost hope to be honest. I was really sad about it because Harry was Harry. He seemed to be a really cool person to be around, but I guess there was something wrong with me that he didn't like and that's why he stopped talking to me. He probably just wanted to confront me about it in the drugstore.

I was currently at the counter, selling burgers once again.

"Hello, what can I get you?" I said to the next costumer in queue, not even bothering to look up since I was becoming tired.

"Hi." I looked up and I immediately noticed those two emerald eyes greeting me.

"Hey." I was melting way too quickly.
"Louis, I would like to talk to you."
"I am working now." I answered simply.
"When is your shift ending?"
"Soon." I sighed.

"I will wait for you here then, yeah?"
"Alright." I watched as he sat down into one of the booths.

Half an hour passed and I was done with my shift.
I did everything that I had to do, checked up on my coworker and told him how did it go before I walked up to Harry.

"I am done." I announced.
"Oh, okay." he got up, following me out into the dark.
My shift was ending at 9pm, don't be surprised.

"How did you find me?"
"You once told me about hating the grease from frying, so I realized you must be working at some fast food but I didn't know where and when. It took me some time to find you."

"Well, why did you want to find me in the first place? I thought you didn't want to talk to me anymore." we strolled down the street together.

"No, Louis, no. I had to get a new number but I forgot yours and- well, I am just dumb. I lost my phone."

"Oh." I glanced at Harry whose head was hanging low.

"I- I really missed you. You weren't even coming to the mall and I- I thought I would never get the chance to see you again. Do you want to stop talking?" Harry asked, sounding hurt.

"No Harry, I missed you very much too."

"Did you?" the boy glanced at me momentarily.

"I did, very much." that made Harry grin.

"I would- well, I would like to take you out for date two." Harry said shyly.

"Really?" my eyes were smiling sooner than I could plaster a real smile on my lips.

"Yeah, really. Do you have time now?"
