Jadyn’s POV

            I woke up to my alarm clock beeping but ignored it as I hit the snooze. I don’t know how many times I hit the snooze until I heard banging on my door. I sat up in bed looking at the alarm clock before gasping. I had forty-five minutes until my class started. I ran over to my door and opened it to find Caitlyn standing there.

“Hello, aren’t you going to get dressed?” she asked as I shot her a look.

“Make yourself at home, I just woke up!” I told her as I heard her laugh as I headed toward my door.

Ten minutes later I was walking towards my car sighing.

“So rough night?” Caitlyn asked as I nodded.

“I rewrote my rough draft of the paper on Harry and then my mom called and she was in the mood to talk. Then I rewrote the rough draft over again and somehow I managed to cram studying vocabulary and other homework on top of that! I didn’t go to sleep until three thirty,” I told her as she stared at me surprised.

“Late worker,” she retorted before getting in the car.

“I feel like crap,” I told her as she smiled at me.

“Don’t worry! It is almost the weekend!” she said happily,

“Somehow that does not make me feel better,” I told her.

“I have news!!!!” she said after a moment of silence.

Looking at her she squealed and did a happy dance in the car.

“Okay please tell me before you ruin my car,” I told her.

“Niall is coming home tomorrow!!!” she said as I smiled at her but felt left out at the same time.

Why couldn’t I have a boyfriend? ‘Because you fail at them,’ I thought as I sighed and pulled into a parking spot.

“I hate the rain,” Caitlyn suddenly said as I looked at her.

“What?” I asked.

“HA! I knew you weren’t listening to me, you had a distant look in your eyes. I really do hate the rain though. I have always wanted to go to America! Are you going anytime soon?” Caitlyn asked me as I nodded.

“My parents told me they wanted me home for Thanksgiving, so I have to work everything around my schedule,” I said as she nodded.

“Oh I don’t need a ride to work because I am going to be at the café near the store for a project,” Caitlyn said as we neared my classroom.

“Okay, bye,” I said as she waved as I walked inside.

            Finding a seat was easy-there was only ten people at the most in the class. I sat near the front next to a girl who smiled at me before introducing herself.

“My name is Bailey,” she said.

“I am Jadyn,” I said as she smiled.

“You have an American accent…” she observed as I nodded.

“I hope so, I am from America. California,” I told her.

“That’s cool, I’m from Australia,” she said as I caught the Australian accent then.

“That is awesome! I went there and loved it,” I told her.

“It is pretty magnificent,” she said as I nodded in agreement.

“Good morning class! It looks like we have everybody here! We have a very small class and I want to get right into this! I am Professor Matthews as some of you may know. Let me see, ah! Here are your first assignment, don’t forget to sign this sheet before you leave! And, oh, here grab one of these assignment sheets. Your first assignment is on what you believe one of your body parts represents. Like some of you think your brain represents intelligence, well don’t put that down! Metaphorically what does that body part represent! Think big! Use your brains. Like I would have to say my feet remind me of an elephant! Now that you have your first assignment I will explain how we my grading runs…” Professor Matthews said before lecturing for an hour and a half on how she grades.

            After class I sighed as I signed the sheet before saying goodbye to Bailey and headed outside.

“Mattson!” a familiar voice called as I stopped and smiled.

Turning I saw Harry walking towards me smiling, “How are you?” he asked as I noticed he held no books.

“Fine, I just got lectured,” I told him as I added, “Do you have classes today?”

“No, I don’t have classes today. I have them Monday thru Wednesday. I had to check on something in one of my classes and I stopped to say hi,” he said as I smiled, blushing a little.

“Well…Hi,” I said as he smirked.

“Do you want to go get something to eat?” he asked as I looked at him. “There is going to be no Louis, Eleanor, or girl glaring at you. Just me and you,” he said as I smiled.

“I guess, I have to go home and change before heading to work though,” I told him.

“Why? You look great,” he said as we headed towards the parking lot.

I looked down at the black leggings I had put on with a long blue shirt with brown combat boots, “You have to be joking, I woke up late and threw this on, I am lucky this matches,” I told him as he shrugged.

“So where is your car?” I asked looking around for his black SUV.

“It stayed at home, I was out with Liam earlier and he dropped me off. Let me just say you are rescuing me again,” he said smiling.

“Here we with the rescuing the prince thing again,” I told him jokingly as I unlocked my Mini Cooper and we got in.

“I think I like being rescued by you,” he said smirking as I shook my head.

“Do not make this your habit Styles, I am not always going to be around to rescue you,” I told him as he shook his mass of curls.

“Well I will face that when that happens. All I know is that you are here now. How does sandwiches sound?” he asked as I smiled.

“They actually sound really appetizing,” I admitted as he smiled.

“Great! Turn left up here, they have the best food,” he said as I followed his instructions.

            We got our sandwiches to go and headed towards a park that Harry directed me to. Harry and I sat on a bench eating in silence.

“Do you like it?” he asked pointing towards my half eaten sandwich.

“It is actually really good,” I told him as he smiled.

“Score for me!” he said smiling very cheeky like.

I found myself grinning back and found my feelings towards Harry build up in my stomach.

“It is two thirty, when do you have to be at work?” Harry asked suddenly.

“Four o’clock, we should get going since I have to drop you off. Where do I drop you off?” I asked looking at him as we stood.

“Oh, Louis is picking me up. He needs my opinion on a couple of tuxes for his wedding, thank you for eating lunch with me Jadyn,” he said kissing my cheek as he led me back to my car.

Once we were at my car he kissed my cheek before watching me get in and then waved as I drove away. I was definitely feeling something for Harry Styles…And I liked it.
