FORGET (H.S.)

Chapter Six - Do What's Best

"Time to get up"

Was the first thing I heard in the morning. I didn't even know when I fell asleep but it was probably late because I saw the clack when it was 2 am. I decided not to shower so I stayed in my bed for a bit longer until my dad came again and switched my light on.

"You should really get up, Ellie."

I really don't like him. He was always there with his bullshit only to tell me what I did wrong. But when he does something wrong it isn't his fucking fault. I personally think he loves his dog more than his own daughters. But then again I hate everyone who only dares to wake me up in the morning. I slowly pulled my sheets off me and walked to the bathroom. I looked awful I thought while standing in front of the mirror. My eyes were red from crying all night, I probably also cried in my sleep and my hair was in all directions.

It was all my fault, I should live with it that something happened to my best friend. Something, I have no idea what but the fact that Harry left me standing after I asked the 'Zayn-question' should mean that something has happened. Or doesn't it?

I pulled my hair into a messy bun and putted my blue sweatpants with a white t-shirt on. I quickly brushed my teeth and looked one more time in the mirror before heading downstairs. I smiled hoping it wouldn't be to obvious that I had been crying all night. I quickly got myself an apple and gave my mom a kiss, all without looking directly at somebody. I rushed out of the door and I decided to go with my car today so I jumped in there when I suddenly felt my phone buzzing in my back pocket.

"Everything is going to be okay. I will see you after your classes. I will be there this time, I promise."

I threw my phone one the passenger seat beside me and laid my head on the wheel. THIS wasn't going to be okay, it wasn't going to be fixed. I sighed and started my engine while looking in front of me. I drove out of my parking spot and headed to school.

Aubrey wasn't here. She wasn't by her locker and wasn't in class. She must be still home, but why? Did she found out that something happened? Did Zayn told her? Did he laughed at her? Is she going to hate me now? Because of all these questions in my head I couldn't focus on the lesson so when I heard the bell I decided to go to her home. I jumped in my car and drove to her house as fast as I could. I parked in front of her house and knocked on her door but no one opened so I entered through the back door. I tried to walk up the stairs to her room as silent as possible but the wooden stairs wouldn't stop creaking.

"I know it's you, Ellie, please go away, I don't want to see you." She yelled from her room. I could hear on her voice that she was crying.

"You don't have to look at me." I said from outside her room. "Just, please, talk about it."I heard her come out of her bed and walk towards the door when she swung it open.

"TALK ABOUT WHAT?! Nothing happened, like you said, EVERYTHING is more than all right, we can all go on with our live, nothing fucking happened."

What the hell, did I heard this right? Did Aubrey just cursed? She must be mad, she never curse.

"Well, if there isn't anything wrong." I said keeping myself as calm as possible, even though I was boiling inside. "Then why are you not at school instead of fucking crying here in your bed"

Okay I know that wasn't calm, but I wasn't a person with a lot of patience and understanding. I am trying though.

"Because, Ellie, maybe something happened, I don't know."

"Why do you think that?" I asked her while walking towards her bed. She walked right behind me and sat next to me on her bed.

"I don't remember anything, Ellie, everything is gone. I woke up Saturday morning in my own bed feeling sore and when I went downstairs my brother told me some guy brought me home. But maybe I'm thinking the worst and maybe something stupid happened."

"That's probably it" I told her while taking her into my arms. "I will ask Harry, Zayn's friend, maybe he knows what happened." When the words exited the my mouth, I felt my phone buzzing. "That's probably him. It's already three o'clock and I told him I was going to meet him after school."

"I'm outside of your school. Where are you?"

"I have to go, Aubrey, I will see you tomorrow." All she did was smile when I gave her a hug and whispered in her ear. "It's going to be okay."

"I'm not at school. Let's talk in the park I will see there in five minutes."

I jumped in my car and started driving towards the park. All I could think about was how I was probably lying to Aubrey, but I was also trying to convince myself really nothing happened, but it's to difficult to believe. Harry wouldn't leave me standing like that if it wouldn't have been important, but than again I only know him for three days. Can I really thrust him? It's just that it feels like I know him for years, I thought while parking my car and sitting down at a bench in the park. I have the feeling I can thrust him and I really believe he wouldn't leave me standing there for nothing, so I think that he probably went to Zayn to ask him for an explanation.

"Hey" His voice pulled me out of my thoughts "Why weren't you at school today?" Harry sat down next to me on the bench.

"MAYBE because I was with my best friend who is crying her soul out because she thinks something happened to her, MAYBE, I don't know Harry, MAYBE I just didn't feel like going to school today" I said sarcastically.

"I have the feeling you're mad" Sherlock said.

"We are feeling smart today, aren't we?" I gave him an annoyed smile.

"Okay come here." He said while taking me in his arms "Will you please calm down?" I got out of his arms and looked into his eyes.

"Maybe if you can tell me what the hell happened to her?" It's only then I knew I was crying because of my voice that broke and also because of Harry's big hand that swept my tears aways from my cheek.

"Okay, don't be mad please, but there indeed something happened but Zayn told me she gave her permission."

"She gave her permission." I yelled while standing up. I walked around a few seconds and gave him a sarcastic laugh. "Permission" I said again. "Are you fucking kidding me? PERMISSION" I yelled again. "She couldn't even think straight. Why the hell would she be okay with it. She was still a virgin you know, she wanted to wait and now your stupid friend just fucked her like it was nothing. How am I going to tell her this? 'Hey Aubrey, Zayn took your virginity, bye, not my fucking problem.' Ha" I sniffed.

"Shhhh" Harry hushed me while pulling me onto his lap. "You don't have to tell her." He whispered into my ear.

"I can't lie to her, I have to tell her."

"YOU have to do what's best." He said while looking into my eyes. "Even if that means you have to lie."

I hope you still like the story, if you don't then you don't have to read it but you can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
