It had been days since I had heard from Harry. Days since I had felt his skin against mine or had his lips comfort me. It had been days since he called, texted, or came over. The only time I got to even see him was at school and even there he wouldn't look at me or talk to me. I was becoming desperate for him to even just look at me.
I waited for him to just call me and tell me he wasn't mad at me but the longer I waited the more I felt like he was done with me. I knew that Harry could get mad easily and hold a grudge but I expected to hear something from him by now. I had found great company in Niall over these past few days but it wasn't the same company I had felt when I was with Harry.
My thoughts were filled with him. I saw him and i cuddling in my bed when I was lonely and couldn't sleep. I imagined him fucking me on the desk when I was bored and not paying attention. I imagined him yelling at me in my own home because I knew he would do that if we were together. All the things we did together felt like distant memories as the days passed and I got closer to Niall. I'm sure it was a better thing that I was closer to Niall but nothing could stop me from missing Harry and I what him and I had.
Prom was in about 4 days and I was getting really excited. My mom had came all the way from her job just to pick out a dress with me and make sure I was going to have the best time I possibly could. I appreciated her taking this time off work but I also felt bad because she was going to have to catch up on all the work she had missed. My thoughts were all over the place and all it took was the vibration of my phone to bring me out of them.
Niall: Wanna me up after school?
Daisy: Sure why?
Niall: I have some questions to ask you..
Daisy: Why the two dots? Should I be nervous?
Niall: Not really.. I just want to talk to you about some stuff.
Daisy: You are making me nervous? Is it like something that serious?
Niall: Yes.
Daisy: Where?
Niall: My car.
Niall: Maybe we could hang out after, if you want to.
My heart starting beating rapidly against my chest. It was the last class of the day and I didn't have to wait long until I got to talk to him. I hadn't done anything wrong but there could always be a rumor or Harry could be doing something to ruin this for me. I don't think that is something he would do but I'm still scared that is him.
I watched harry walk around the room, teach, or just do anything in class. I was yearning for him for so long and this was the only way my need for him was satisfied. I missed talking to him and just being around him. I never realized what he meant to me until now and it made me wish Harry was a different person. I wished he was younger and I wished he was more understanding. I wanted to change those things about him just so that these moments could go a lot differently.
The bell rang and I gathered my things, stacked my chair on top of the desk and left. In the back of my mind I wished that harry would make me stay after class and "grade papers" but we weren't like that anymore. I walked out to the front of the school and saw Niall in his car waiting for me. His eyes were darting around the entire courtyard, obviously looking for me.
"Hey", I said opening the door and sitting in the passenger seat. I wanted to buckle up but I didn't know the plans for after this so I didn't want to seem to committed or excited. Also, if I wanted to leave I wanted to be able to, being buckled up made me feel obligated to stay.
"So, what are your questions for me", I asked trying to break the tension. Talking to Niall was always hard in person but there was something different about this time. The look on his face seemed almost angry or sad, I couldn't decide which.
"Do you still talk to Harry?", he asked and the question was no surprise.
"I did."
"You did?"
"Him and I were an item", I said item because now I feel like the term boyfriend isn't good here," And it was going really well. He wanted me to be friends with you and do teenage girl in high school things but then he found out about the prom thing and he saw when you tried to kiss me and he got really jealous."
"So the answer is yes", he interrupted. I was mad because I wanted Niall to know the whole story and understand me but he seemed like he didn't care. I did talk to Harry but after our last fight it didn't seem like him and I would be talking anytime soon.
"Can I finish?", I said snapping a little at Niall. He was taken back by my attitude but I hated being interrupted.
"I mean if you want to."
" He didn't want me to go but I told you yes anyway and", my voice came off as reluctant and nervous because Niall seemed like he didn't care," We got in this huge fight and we haven't talked since. We aren't together anymore I think."
"Okay", he said playing with his phone.
"Okay? Why are you so bitter, Niall? Whats wrong?"
" Harry pulled me out of class today and told me I couldn't go out with you and I don't know he just said all this shit. Harry is scary as fuck and I honestly don't know what to do about it. If he doesn't want me going out with you and if he is going to threaten me, I don't know if i should take you", he said breaking my heart," I don't want him to be mad at you or me, its not worth it."
"Niall", I said grabbing his face and making him look me in the eyes," Fuck Harry. I made plans with you because I want to have a fun night with you. Harry didn't understand that so I'm not with him."
"He was threatening to hurt me and he said if I took you out he would tell your parents all the stuff you two have done", he said and I was scared but in the back of my mind I knew Harry wouldn't go through with it. Harry wasn't as mean and manipulative as he was putting off and I felt like if him and I had a heart to heart conversation he might get over it.
"I'll talk to him", I told Niall," I'll see what I can do but you and I are still going to prom."
