"I need to pee!"
Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod my thoughts raced as I ran to the bathroom with my purse hitting my leg. I busted into one of the stalls and locked myself into it, bracing myself against the walls.
I was about to kiss Harry. Harry Styles, my best friend since forever. Harry Styles, member of One Direction. Harry Styles, the guy I would never admit it to, but have wanted to kiss since I met him.
I tried to calm myself down, but obviously it wasn't working too well. Shaky hands pulled my phone out of my purse and I opened the message app, sending a quick text to Gemma.
"okay, so I might have almost kissed your brother in the middle of tesco, but i didnt so like. dont freak out."
I waited anxiously for her response and it came in a matter of seconds.
"????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY DIDNT YOU?????i"
Letting out a breathy laugh, I replied quickly, finally pulling myself together.
"i got nervous? can you blame me, gem? i wanted to, but idk. i just couldnt."
I took a deep breath and put my phone back in my bag and walked out of the stall. I could do this. If Harry mentions anything about it, I'll just be honest. Tell him I was nervous. That it wasn't a good idea since he just got home. Basically just let him know that I really wanted to kiss him but we should both be reasonable and know that that is a terrible, horrible, absolutely awful idea.
I knew that Harry was probably in line to buy the crisps now, so I walked towards the front of the store, only to find him being swarmed by girls, holding the bags holding his purchases above his head. He was obviously trying to be nice and try to say hi to as many as possible, but I could tell all he really wanted was to be saved from them. I did what I needed to do.
"Hey, Harry! How are you? I haven't seen you in forever!" I walked up to him, pushing my way through many of the girls surrounding him and hugged him gently. "Welcome back! I heard you were visiting, it's so nice of you to come back. Would you like to come over for dinner tonight? You do still know how to get to my house, right? The one off of Cherry Road? Big red door?"
"Oh, uh, yeah of course! I'd love to come over, Madelyn!" I smiled and grabbed Harry's hand and drug him outside of the store. I pulled him behind a wall and we watched as teenage girls sprinted the other way, already on their way to the house with the red door off of Cherry Road.
"Did you send them to that cranky old folks' home?" He laughed, looking at with an impressed face.
"Do you think I'd send them anywhere else? Of course I did." I put my hands on my hips and he laughed harder, slow-clapping for me.
"I'm impressed, not gonna lie. Thanks for that." He finished laughing, handing me one of the grocery bags.
"Don't mention it. Let's get back before they realize I was totally and completely lying." I said, starting on the pavement on the way back to my house. We walked in silence for a little bit until the elephant in the room became way too obvious to not address.
"So... not to be a total girl who like freaks out over small things, because that's totally not me, but, what exactly happened in the store?" My words came out fast and jumbled, but I could tell Harry knew exactly what I was going to say before I even opened my mouth. He breathed in deeply and looked straight ahead.
"Well, I was going to kiss you in the crisps aisle of a Tesco, but then you blurted out that you had to pee - nice excuse, by the way - so, sadly, we were not able to kiss at that moment. But don't worry. I'm planning on getting at least one kiss in before I go back on tour." He said it so nonchalantly I could hardly tell he even had thought about it. It sounded like he was just telling me that he found a pencil under his desk or that he got new socks. It did not at all sound like he was telling me he had plans to kiss me before his stay here ended.
"Um, well I guess if we're talking about it I might as well ask my question. Why exactly are you planning on kissing me?" Not going to lie, I was terrified of his answer. I wasn't exactly sure what I was going to hear, and not knowing was terrifying.
"Charlie, usually when someone wants to kiss another someone it's because they feel like they really sincerely like that person. In this case, I've felt that way for quite a long time, so I figured I better tell you sooner rather than later. Obviously it isn't love, because how can it be love when we've gone three years without speaking? I'd say it's something along the lines of 'I've been friends with this gorgeous girl for years and one day when I was in a tour-bus I realized that I just really wanted to kiss her because I really like her a lot and how did I not notice it before.' Or you know, something similar to that." We were in my driveway, staring at each other. He watched me, his eyes soft. Somehow he still looked so calm, but knowing Harry, he was freaking out on the inside.
"Then do it. Why are you waiting for these weird moments? Like, really? Tesco? That was where you decided to try it first?" I crossed my arms and scoffed. "If you really wanted to get me, you'd have to do it random-"
I was cut off my him suddenly grabbing my face and (yep you guessed it) kissing me. I (once again) dropped the bags of crisps and my arms automatically wrapped around his neck. Me being short, and Harry being a giant, I stood on my tiptoes and stood on the top of his feet, like I had all those days ago in his room. His hands moved from my neck to my hips. I tried to run my fingers through his hair, but my fingers got stuck in a rats-nest he had. I pulled away and started laughing. He took a sharp intake of breath.
"Ouch! Hey, quit it!" He laughed, trying to get my hand out of his hair. I was laughing so hard I was wheezing, and he was still trying to get his hair untangled..
"You have to do it right, you stupid!" I motioned for him to sit down on the ground, and as he did I began working on getting his hair untangled. "Did we just kiss and literally get stuck together?"
"Yes. We certainly did." Harry laughed, rubbing his head where I had finally gotten my hand out of his hair.
"Nice."
