Chapter Four

May 7th, 2010

-Ella-

I walk down the main hallway of Hilton high, which is currently packed with students.

34-21-86 click! I grab all my supplies out of my small light green locker for my last subject for today, English. -.-

"Hey Haz." I say as I place my books on the empty desk next to Harry

"Hey." he replies with a cute smile and wave.

"Take out your text books everyone." snaps Mrs. Grimickee as about 27 heads turned to the front of the room.

She began talking and scribling down notes on the blackboard but I wasn't paying any attention to her at all. I'm always zoning out lately. I keep thinking about Harry, and Alex and Louis. (all about my love life)

"Ella?" She says pointing at me.

"Yeah?" I respond.

"The answer to the question I just asked..." She says crossing her arms over her stomach and glaring at me.

"Superlative Adverb." Harry whispered to me.

"Superlative Adverb." I repeat loudly.

"Good." Mrs. Grimickee says as she moves along with her awful teaching.

"Thanks." I whisper to Harry.

He gave me one of his adorable half smiles and went back to taking his notes.

*RRIINNGG*

I jolt awake to see everyone heading out the door, I grab my books and follow along.

"Haz." I say tapping his shoulder.

"yeah." he says, his head turning towards me so his deep green eyes were looking at my blue eyes.

"Would you mind dropping me off at my house?" i ask.

"sure. But I was planning on giving Alex her card before she leaves, and she gets out of algebra in three minutes." he explains.

"Go on. I'll meet you in the parking lot." I say as he waves and walks down the green and blue painted hallway to find Alex's algebra room.

-Alex-

"Class is dismissed!" Mrs. Viox announces and I jumble my books into a pile and rush out the classroom door. On my way out I bumped into Harry.

"Alex! I didn't see you all day. Happy birthday!" He shouts, handing me a small card.

"Aww thanks." I say as he gives me a hazza hug. (<--- that should be a thing)

"Open it." He says, his hans motioning toward the blue handmade card in my hands.

"ok." I say as flip open one side of the card, my eyes scanning over the handprinted words on the paper.

*~*~*~*

Dear Alex,

I hope you have a wonderful Birthday, a girl as beautiful as you surely deserves it! Your the best friend a guy could ever ask for and I love you for that :) I don't know if i've ever told you before, but your smile is so beautiful, so don't ever stop smiling. its contageous.. :P

Love your best friend,

Harry xoxo

*~*~*~*

I smiled after reading it and closed the card. I went on my tiptoes to hug Harry, because he's just a few inches taller then me. I wanted to stay in his arms forever, but he pulled away shortly after.

We talked for a while as we lost track of time.

Realizing what time it was I say "Well I have to go.." Spinning on my heels "My grandparents should be arriving soon." I say strolling away after waving goodbye.

As i'm walking away I hear Ellas voice, but it wasn't talking to me. "C'mon." She said and she left the school.

-Ella-

I had to nearly drag Harry to the parking lot.

"To Ella's house.... AWAY!" He yells, trying to be a superhero, as he starts to back the car out of the parking lot.

After almost five minutes of an awkward silence I decided to be a rebel and break the silence. "So what

Took you so long to 'give Alex her card?" I ask, putting air quotation marks on 'Give Alex her card'.

"Well we talked for a while afterwards.." He explained. "Thats pretty much it.." He said with a fake half smile.

"Cool." I reply.

"Ella, can I tell you something that I haven't anybody, even told Louis." He asked.

"Yeah. Sure. Anything." I say, urging him to tell me his secret.

"Well I like this girl." He says, his head turning to face mine.

"Y-yeah." I say trying to hold back my butterflies. Was he going to say me? What if he did? What would I say? So many thoughts were rushing through my mind, and in such little amount of time.

"Well the thing is she's one of my best friends.." He says as he smiles in thought.

I smile because he made it very obvious that he liked me but was to shy to tell me.

"I like...Alex." He says slowly, pausing before saying alex's name. And at those three short words my heart broke into a million tiny pieces.

I just say 'oh' and try to act like i'm cool with what he had just said.

The rest of the ride was pretty silent but then we pulled up to my house.

"Bye." I wave trying to smile.

-Harry-

Ella smiled at me like an adorable puppy whos begging for a dog biscuit.

"I like Alex." I say as a light shade of pink rushes into my cheeks.

Ella's smile vanished after those three words and she just said 'oh'. Talk about total mood change.

Why would she be sad that I like Alex? Does Alex not like me back? Or does Ella like me? No.. Shes my best friend... She wouldn't.. I don't think she would..?

The rest of the car ride was silent because we were both deep in thought.

She hopped out of the car trying not to seem like shes mad at me. Was she actually mad at me?

Louis. I had to call Louis, if Ella likes me and he likes her, he might want to know what just happened.

"Hey. Lou." I mumble into the speaker of my cell phone.

"Hazza!" He screams.

"I think Ella likes me." I explain.

"Alex told me that Ella liked me!" Louis protested.

"Well I like Alex.." I admit

"You do?" He asked, sounding very confused at the oddness of the situation.

"Yeah."

(A/N: hey sorry this is kinda short and it took forever. I've been kinda busy so sorry. Next chapter is the party so stay tuned.)
