Delicate Realities

Almost there

<Harry's POV> Earlier that day 1:57 PM

<><><><><><>

"Hey psycho, Im surprised how your little arse of you hasn't snitched on us" Nick smirked at me as i coughed up toilet water. I could tell he wasn't in the mood today since he rarely dumps my face down the toilet.

I was kneeling down trying to steady my breathing until i felt a rough pain in my ribs which caused me to curl up in the floor of the boy's restroom.

I don't know why i deserved this. I never done anything to him. I actually stayed as far as i could from Nick since we weren't even from the same social group. I wasn't that popular in school because i didn't blend in. Something about me did not belong within me, i just cant explain. Whenever i met new people, they would linger around me for a week or so and then, they would stop talking to me. The only real friends i have is Ed, Ashton, and Luke. Now, it took years for me to gain their trust; not because they're bad people, its mainly because    I simply don't trust people immediately. After i did though, I always depended on them since they were the only people that haven't walked off my life for good.

My current thoughts faded when i realized that Nick was gone. The bell for the next class must have rung; oh gee, now I'm late to my psychology class. I rose my shirt up to see that newly fresh bruises picked up by the sides of the stomach. I was now smiling since it wasn't nothing severe compared to the other times he has abused me.

I took off my now-wet sweatshirt and turned it to let all the water run off until it wasn't leaking anymore. Even though my hair was humid, I fixed it up into a mini bun, just enough to hold most of my hair with streaks falling down swiftly.

I walked down the hall nearly limping and opened the door to my class which was E-5. All eyes were gazing right at me just as if i murdered someone right before them. Miss Flack looked at me oddly and questioned why i was late but I was off of it today. Now, Miss Flack is a blonde young attractive lady in her late 20's but she seems too clingy over some of her students which is pretty much annoying so i just ignored her and sat down on my seat next to Ashton. His eyes scanned my body and frowned. He knew exactly what happened but didn't bother asking. The whole class consisted of watching a short clip about the human mind and taking notes during the video. When the ball rang to advice that school was over, Ashton was about to speak but then Miss Flack told Ashton that she had to discuss my grades with me and with that, Ashton left me and Miss Flack closed the door with the lock. She was wearing her too revealing white blouse that showed her whole cleavage and her tight short violet pencil skirt. She had her legs crossed in a lady-like manner and her glasses were tipping over her nose.

"Harry, honey.. How are you feeling good today?" She asked while keeping her gaze at me.

"U-uh, yeah, I'm fine Miss" i hesitated.

"For you Harry, you can call me Caroline whenever you would like because you know, you're my favorite student." She winked at me as she rose her skirt up a little bit to show more of her thighs.

I started to get more nervous because i had no idea what i should do as an excuse to leave. I only thought that she's nice looking but this was wrong and i needed to leave now. She rolled her chair closer to where i was until i could smell her perfume invading the air i was breathing. She took me by the hand but i released her grip and ran out without no word.

3:16 PM

I walked home by myself through the long way which was by the forest. Whenever i feel down, i always wondered around here. I sat on my favourite place deep in the forest which was a meadow yanking out flowers for no apparent reason. I was there for a few minutes until i remembered that i had to go home because i had to go to my step-fathers new job. He was a police but he got transferred to a new prison and was promoted a chief there.

My parents wanted me to go with Robin because they're both been working and they didn't wanted to leave me alone in the house even though i'm 17 and could fully take care of myself. They also wanted me to go to my step-fathers work because Robin wants me to have the full experience of how to manage a place full of criminals and my mum wanted me to have a bonding time with Robin. Robin has been a good husband for my mum but we don't really have much of a conversation between each other, i normally avoid his gaze whenever he is around but still treat him with respect.

I arrived home to see my mum cooking some lasagna. She kissed me by the cheek and hugged me; i would say her motherly love might be embarrassing, but i like it when she spoils me with attention.

"Harold, how was school? And would you like some lasagna? I used your grandmothers recipe just the way you like it."

"Eh, it was alright mum, and im not that hungry."

"Oh well, Robin is waiting for you at his car so you guys can leave, and if you're ever hungry, the meal will be right in he fridge if you change your mind. Now i got to change to go work myself, take care!" She spoke while blowing me a kiss since she was in a rush.

"Thanks mum, lots of love." I smiled at her and watched her leave to her room.

I carefully ran upstairs to my room to change in my dark jeans and my Rolling Stones T-shirt. I swooped my curly locks to the back of my face and walked back down to the garage where i met Robin.

"Hey Harry, are you ready to go?" He asked when we both hopped on his blood red Camaro.

"Uh yeah, I'm exited" i threw a fake smile at him.

The rest of the car ride was silent until i felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I picked it up to see that it was a text from Ashton.

To: Harry x
How did it go with the hottie? Did you get a spanking bc of ur grades? ;) x

I rolled my eyes and smirked because he clearly didn't get the picture that it was nothing like that with Miss Flack.

To: Ash Cakes
Naah you got it all wrong, i'll ttyl bc I'm arriving at prison with my step dad (he's working there lol) :) xx

To: Harry x
Alright mate, i'll leave ya. Tell your sister Gemma that i said hi and also tell her that when is our date going to be? :P xx

That cheeky bastard always makes me laugh. He always been having a crush on my sister Gems and i know that theirs something between them and it makes me wonder, when will i have the chance to love? I mean, I've had a few girlfriends here and there but i honestly only felt sweet love for them, nothing huge. I know people say that things like this take time but i think my time has come.
