Uncovered

Chapter 14

I am meet with the familiar green eyes and mop of curls that I have become accustom to over my few days of being here but I can't help but wonder what he is doing here, he never said anything about coming. I look into his eyes and as soon as I do I am meet with his staring directly back at mine, but he doesn't look as shocked as I probable do but he still looks surprised to see me.

"Harry?" I say in a mere whisper, it sounding like a question. No one could of heard what I said, not even Harry. But what is he doing here?

"Harry, how good to see you." I look to the person who spoke, finally breaking my eyes from Harry and see my father advancing to him and giving him a handshake. "I didn't know you were coming."

"Nice to see you Richard." Harry says shaking his hand back. "I didn't even know I was coming either." Harry says with a smile bringing out his dimples. How's he know my father?

"Trust your father, he doesn't know what he is doing half the time." My dad says... Wait father, Desmond's Harrys' father.

"Hey, he said he didn't want to come. It's not my fault." Desmond says. Raising his hands in defence.

"Stop lying dad." Harry says to his father jokingly and they all laugh.

I stand here awkwardly as the three men converse. I intentionally clear my throat, quite loudly in fact so that I can grab attention, and it works and they all turn to look at me.

"Oh sorry how rude of me." My father says. "Harry, this is my daughter Mackenzie, Mackenzie this is Harry. Desmond's son." My father explains.

"Dad, you don't have to introduce us. I've already met Harry." I say laughing and my father looks at me confused.

"Oh, so you've seen him earlier this evening." He says with a smile and can't help but question how he even passed school. Is he that dumb?

"No, his friends with my friend Shailene who lives next door." I say and he nods, understanding now.

"Oh, so you already know each other." He says. Didn't I just state that?

"Yeah dad." I say drawing out my sentence so he understands what I'm saying.

"Well isn't that a coincidence." Desmond pipes up. "Both of our children know each other." He says smiling.

"Reminds me of us, beside the fact that I wasn't a girl." My father says while laughing and so does Desmond. "I remember we were about their age when we meet in college, I thought you were a totally, let me quote 'Ace'." My father says recalling memories with Desmond, they begin do banter about old memories and slowly exclude Harry and I from the conversation. I realised I haven't spoken to him the whole time he has even been here.

"So I'm a friend of a friend now, I thought I would have made it to the friends list already. "I am broken from my thoughts when Harry speaks, and I look over to him to see that he is staring at me with a cheeky smile on his face.

"I think you're more of an acquaintance." I say teasing him.

"Hey, I've probable spent more time with you than Shai has." He says and I he is probably right.

"True, I guess we could be friends then." I say and he smiles proudly, it stays quiet for a few second until Harry speaks up again

"You look beautiful tonight by the way."

"Thank you, you look quite handsome yourself." I say giving a small smile. He is wearing an all-black attire, wearing a black suit jacket and black top underneath it and black dress pants and shoes. His long hair swept to one side and I can't help but bite my lip, he looks so hot.
