Curls and Caramel

Chapter 4

~ Izzy ~

As I'm sitting in the cafeteria eating my pizza, I'm still hoping that Jason didn't snoop in my phone if he found it. I see Jason walking to his table, so I hurry and sit by him.

Handing me my phone, "Did you lose something?" 

I quickly take it with a smile. "Thank you so much for finding it for me! I though I had to get a new phone!" I knew that didn't because I knew sooner or later he would have returned it back to me.

He takes a drink of his water. Then he looks at me with a concerned look. "Is there anything you want to tell me?" Great he went through it.

 "Nope everything's fine." I say even though it's really not.

"Did didn't seem like it with your texts to Clarissa." All three of us are friends but Jason is closer to me and I'm  closer to Clarissa.

"You went through my fucking phone?!" I try to keep my voice down so people won't look at us.

"No, yes? Okay your phone vibrated and Clarissa texted you something that seemed suspicious so I looked at your past conversation and well not what I expected." He says rubbing the back of his neck nervously

"Oh." I lower my head. The next thing I know is that my hands are in his. 

"I won't let anyone hurt you. alright?" Jason's looking me dead in the eye but I look away. He moves my head so I'm facing him again.

"Thanks Jason. Just don't tell my parents okay?" He nods and I leave the table. I still can't believe he read my personal texts. Well at least I have two people to lean on. Luckily just a while later I get a text from Harry. My pulse starts to increase. I sit back down at the table I was at. There aren't a lot of people around so I decide to read what's on my phone.

Harry: "Isabelle I'm so glad u txted me! :) I want to meet you on Saturday at 7:00 p.m .Meet me by the yogurt place Wear something casual but not to casual ;)"  I didn't have anything to worry about. For some reason I feel like we're going to go bowling or something with the 'wear something casual'.

Izzy:"Alright,see you then :)" The bell rings signaling lunch is over. Jason and I walk to our class together avoiding the phone topic.

--------

"Hey baby cake. How was school." He's doing some paperwork when I walk in the door. I toss my bag by the couch and head for the kitchen for a snakc.

"Great. I just hung out with Jason and he says hi by the way. Um dad Carissa's coming over if that's alright?" I quickly ramble.

He looks up at me then looks back down to his work. "Course, but she can't stay for long I've got something planned for us to do."

"Okay" I rush upstairs and plop on my bed. I decide to call my mom to see how she's doing.

"Hello?"

"Hi mom."

"Hi Isabelle."

"How's work going." I hear stuff rustling in the background.

"Pretty busy I can't stay on for long." She seems to be in a rush.

"Well dad's here for only a week." I start to walk around my room then decide to stand out on my balcony. It looks like it's about to rain pretty soon.

"Oh well tell him I said 'hello' and that I love him."

"Okay I will."

"Well I have to go sweetie. Lots of love." Before I can even say bye the phone clicks. That was a short conversation. I go back inside and turn on my TV.

"Isabelle! Carissa is here!" My dad yells to me even though I can barely hear him over the noise of the TV. My door bursts open by my brunette friend.

"Hey girl.." She plops beside me.

"Yeah will now he wants me to meet him on Saturday at seven."

"Cool where?"

"By Frozen Paradise. He want me to wear something casual" I do air quotes when I say casual.

"Where do you think he's going to take you?" She asks looking in my closet. 

"The date is in five days what are you doing in my closet?"

"There's nothing wrong with being prepared." I smile shaking my head turning my attention back to the show.

"Glad to help." She says when I don't respond to her.

We watch some reruns of Full House and laugh at how funny some of the characters react to certain things. Clarissa complains on how she doesn't understand some math formula she's been learning about for two weeks and I just laugh at her.

My dad knocks on the door and we both look up.

"Sorry to disturb you but I sort of planned something with Izzy." 

"Oh okay. See you later Izzy." Clarissa says bye to my dad.

"So where are we going?" I asked turning off the show.

"I was thinking bowling."

 ~ Harry ~

I can't believe the guys made me go to some lame bowling alley. I mean this is the smallest bowling alley I've ever seen and it's pretty run down, but that hasn't stopped people from coming.

"C'mon Harry lighten up a bit and play a game with us." Liam suggests snapping me out of my thoughts. I just really want to stay at home and think abous Isabelle and her beautiful brown eyes.

"Nah I'm good but thanks though." I raise my pepsi can up to him. Liam rolls his eyes and goes back to playing with the boys. After sitting being miserable for a while I decide to grab me a ball when I see the familiar dark brown hair come into view.

I instantly smile grabbing a blue bowling ball walking over to her and her dad.

"Hi Isabelle. Hello Mr. Andrew." My face is going to hurt from smiling to much but I don't care because Isabelle is in the same building with me.

"Hey Harry how are you?" Isabelle's dad extends his hand out and I kindly shake it. I look back to his daughter to see that she's playing with her fingernails. 

"I'm good sir." My eyes automatically move to the beautiful girl in front of me. I stand there awkwardly when her dad leaves to go pay for their game.

"Hi." Her voice is small and nervous yet adorable.

"Hi." I reply back. She has a small smile on her lips but quickly disappears for a split second.

"So how are you?" She asks nervously. It's adorable how she's nervous around me.

"Better now that your here Isabelle." I was having a terrible time here but since I saw her face I thought that it wouldn't be as bad as I thought.

"Call me Izzy. If you want to." Before I could say anything her father comes back asking if she's ready. She nods and says 'bye' to me. Izzy's a cute nickname for her I think as I walk back to the lads. Everyone is looking at me with a smirk on their face.

"What?" I asks sitting down next to Zayn who pats me on the back.

"Getting along with her parent I see." Nial says giving me a thumbs up. I roll my eyes

"It's nothing really her dad and I just get along." The all just nod their heads and go back playing their game. This could actually be a great night.
