Back (book 2)

6. First week

Alexa's POV
It was finally time for my first day. I had my photography class at 10 and then my creative writing class at 3. Harry and I drove and stopped at a small coffee shop on the way to campus. I was very nervous yet excited. I wore a navy blue and white tie dye romper and wore my hair straight and strappy sandals. I got a blueberry muffin and an iced mocha.
We sat down at a table and ate our food and drank our coffee and I pulled out my stuff from my bag for the first day. I brought my top of the line Nikon camera Harry bought me as a gift for getting into my dream college. I checked all the settings and buttons to see if it worked then made sure I had enough pencils and my notebook for creative writing. I joked around pretending to take pictures of Harry from across the table and he posed. We laughed.
"Are you ready?" He asked me.
I looked down at my watch. It read 9:15.
"Yea I want to get there early, it's like 10 minutes away anyways." I said and we got up and threw our stuff away. He grabbed my hand and we made our way to the car.
"Thank you." I said as he opened my door and I got into the car.
"Of course love." he leaned and kissed my forehead.
He got into the car and started it up.
"My car should be here any day." I said as he backed out of the parking spot.
"You know I don't mind driving you right? I love spending this time with you." He said and rested his hand on my thigh and gave it a light squeeze.
"I know me too." I said back and turned up the radio.
Arctic monkeys filled up the car.

We pulled up to the arts building and Harry insisted on walking me inside.
We got in and there were a few people already in there including the teacher.
I walked up with Harry behind me to introduce myself.
"Hi I'm Alexa." I said and shook my teachers hand.
"Hi I'm Mr. Jones." The middle aged man said.
"Who's this?" He said referencing to Harry.
"Hi I'm Harry." He said and shook the mans hand.
"Oh yes weren't you in that famous boy band? My daughter loved you guys!" He said and I let out a light laugh.
"Yes sir." Harry responded.

When it was time for class to start I sat down at my desk and got everything situated. Then someone sat down next to me. She looked around my age. She had golden blonde curls with dark brown accents. She had blue eyes, she was gorgeous.
"Hi I'm Payton!" She introduced herself.
"I'm Alexa, nice to meet you. Are you a freshman?" I asked her.
"Yes! I was so nervous I just moved here from New York, I know absolutely nobody!" She laughed.
"Yes I moved from North Carolina. My boyfriend is with me but that's it." I said.
"Well at least you have someone!" She smiled as we pulled our cameras and notebooks out of our bags.
"Woah that is gorgeous! Where did you get it!" She said referencing to my camera.
"My boyfriend actually bought it for me for a congrats gift. I know he spoils me rotten!" I laughed.
"He must have bank!" She laughed.
"Yea you could say that." I said thinking about all the money he's made from the band. He was set for life plus some.
"What does he do?" She asked.
"Umm well, he's Harry Styles..." I said and her jaw dropped.
"Oh my god I knew I recognized you!" She said and clapped her hands together.
"Yea haha." I awkwardly laughed. I really wanted to make a friend because of me not Harry.
"That's awesome!" She said.

The rest of the day went by quickly. I hadn't met anyone interesting in my creative writing class which was fine I wasn't really interested anyways. My teacher had recognized me right away and asked a ton of questions about Harry. That was one thing I didn't like, that people were only interested in me because of Harry.
I quickly dialed his number as class ended.
"Hey babe." He answered.
"Class is over, could you come get me?" I asked as I sat down on a bench.
"Already here." I said and looked up and there he was pulling up to the curb.
I hung up and walked to the car. He got out and gave me a hug then opened my door for me. When we were both situated in the car he asked me,
"So how was your first day?"
"It was so good, so I made a friend in photography her name is Payton she's so sweet. I think I'm going to invite her over this weekend or something I don't know. Creative writing was fine didn't talk to anyone. Everyone was really weird anyways." I laughed and he chuckled.
"Sounds like a good day! I just laid around the house went out and found a gym and worked out some." He said.
"Nice." I said.

The rest of the week went by quickly. Everyday was the same. My car finally came so Harry drove me two days and I insisted I drove myself the other days. I met with Payton before class everyday at the coffee shop. We had become close. I learned that her boyfriend was planning on moving out here to be with her.

Saturday came around and Harry was helping me clean the house and make dinner for when Payton came over.
"Harry hurry up she will be here any minute!" I said as he was getting dressed.
I settled on a pair of cropped white jeans and a black shirt that's was low cut and a diamond necklace Harry had gotten me. My hair was straight. Harry of course wore his black jeans and black shirt. His long hair looked extra curly after his shower.
"Coming!" He yelled as he walked into the kitchen.
Then the doorbell rang.
"Okay she's here, how do I look?" I said as I turned to him.
"Are you seriously asking me that. You always look perfect." He said and I blushed. I quickly pecked his cheek then went to open the door.
There stood Payton. Her hair was curled as usual. She was wearing a pale pink jumper with a chunky black necklace. She was so pretty.
"Hi!" She said as she gave me a hug.
"Hi!" I said.
"Lovely home!" She said as she walked into the living room.
Harry then walked into the room.
"Oh my god hi I'm Payton, huge fan!" She smiled at Harry. He shook her hand.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Harry." He smiled.
"Like I didn't know." She laughed.

We spent time eating and hanging out. Harry decided to give us girl time so he went out to meet with Louis because he was staying in LA and agreed to come up to see him.
"He's even hotter in person!" She cheered as Harry shut the door.
"He really is." I laughed.
"Damn girl I would get me a piece of that every night." She laughed and I laughed along with her.
"Is it weird that he's that much older?" She asked me.
"You know what, it really isn't." I said.
"That's good! Yea Robert is only a year older." She said talking about her boyfriend.
"When will he be here?" I asked.
"Next week! I can't wait I miss him so much!" She said.

We spent the rest of the night watching movies and talking. Around 10 Harry came home and Payton left. I was so lucky to have met such an amazing friend.
