At least They're Happy

Chapter 3

When i sauntered into the classroom the next day with Hanna, Emily and Sasha i felt like nothing could stop me. I wasn't so naive as to think Lauren would just own up, so when i saw harry's seat empty i immediately stored it in my brain to use to my advantage later. Harry was always early so he had to be with her somewhere. We all sat down in our usual places and made small talk but i was so caught up in revenge i didn't realise that the five boys had snuck up behind me

'BOO!' They shouted, making me scream and jump about 100 feet in the air. This made them chuckle and harry quickly went to hug me. Even this simple gesture sent shivers down my spine. 'God i like him' i thought. Louis, Niall, Zayn, Liam and Harry all came and sat by us, still laughing hard.

'Morning pretty ladies' Niall chirped in his adorable irish accent. 

'Morning boys' we sing songed back, dishing out hugs like there was no tomorrow.  

'Why weren't you here yesterday? Haz and Lou managed to drag themselves out of bed.' hanna asked, not shy around the guys at all. 

'Sorry darling, its not our fault we're older than all you babies' zayn cooed to us all. Our exchange and harry's hug had made me forget all about the Lauren incident, that is, until a person who looked like an older version of her sauntered through the door.

This Lauren look alike was beautiful. Not just beautiful, but sell your soul for a night to be her beautiful. She walked right up to harry, not wasting any time saying hello to us or the boys and murmured seductively in his ear. Since i was right next to him, i was the only one to hear what she said and it wasn't pretty

'I liked last night a lot, handsome,' she purred, 'whoever thought that sneaking around would be so... Thrilling?' At this, she wound her finger round his belt buckle and pulled him impossibly close, so close that i barely caught what she said next 

'Too bad you couldn't give me everything yet' then she tilted her head back and laughed like he had whispered something in her ear and sauntered away. All this time harry just looked a little flustered, i had to remember he was just a 15 year old boy, not some kind of male prostitute.

I was so caught up in what she had to say that i hadn't realised Lauren behind her. How could that bitch let her sister talk to harry like that? i mean, i'm assuming its her sister, they look so alike. She sure wasn't gaining my trust back with that. I decided to cold shoulder her after that, she wasn't getting anything out of me until she apologised, which she wasn't showing any sign of doing as she stared at me. The bell went of then, making me jump, and harry and his mates sauntered off to their form room. Not before louis and Sasha shared a look though, i made a mental note to ask her what that was about later. For now though, i might as well enjoy school, and not Lauren.

It had been a lonely morning. Lauren had been pestering me and sending me little notes trying to explain, but i didn't even bother to look at them beyond the first couple of words. As soon as i saw that they didn't start with 'i'm sorry' they might as well have not existed. I trudged out of my science classroom feeling tired and betrayed but i craned my neck to try and see my friends. Unsuccessful, i walked back to my form room, deciding to call them from there. When i entered the room i was pleased to see sasha and louis sitting together, obviously in some sort of conversation. I arrived to hear

'Please boobear' (her nickname for him) 'nobody even knows about us yet, and besides, she'd play along!' Sasha then acknowledged my appearance and she turned from louis to me, saying,

'Hey madds, can we go for a walk? I need to umm.. Get lunch. Yeah, get lunch..'

'Course sasha, but couldn't you go with lou?' I replied, quizzical. To this she gave me a look which said 'just do it' so i complied.

When we got to the canteen, sasha steered me away, clearly wanting to be somewhere more discreet. I didn't question this but i was thinking up what i could tell her to console her for her news. What she said next didn't surprise me at all, if anything i was expecting it.

'I've been seeing louis.' She mumbled, 'sorry i didn't tell you earlier i just thought you would be jealous..' She was right, i was jealous but i wasn't going to tell her that 

'I... I think you should hate me because not once have i tried to set you up with harry and i feel terrible. Sorry maddie, sorry...' Her face turned tomato red but she carried on,  

'I was going to break up with him because i felt so bad but he told me just to tell you, maddie i think i love him but you love harry more and why does life have to be so confusing?' She was crying now at the thought of loosing louis and i couldn't bring myself to make her break up with him. That would be cruel, she loved him. Instead i said

'Sasha don't break up with him just let the others know okay? He loves you and you love him so don't loose that. I wouldn't ruin a relationship to have a friend stay stag with me. This is what you've always wanted sasha, don't even think about leaving him.' She sniffed and whispered to me,

'Can i sort my makeup out in the toilets? Come with me madds, please?' And pulled me into the toilets with her. Well, now that was sorted i didn't want to upset her more by asking about the conversation they shared today. That was for another time.

The rest of the day was uneventful, although my talk with Sasha had me thinking that harry may just like me and i had nothing to lose. So by the time i got home a plan had formulated in my mind. I ran straight up to my bedroom and slammed the door. Thank god i was alone or my sister would be snooping around wondering what was up. I picked up my laptop and as soon as i logged onto facebook i searched him up. Harry styles. I clicked on the link and then scrolled through his timeline, seeing the occasional message from Clare left on his wall. Clare was Lauren's sister, i had heard her talk about her before . Luckily harry didn't seem interested in Clare, there were no comments on any of the posts. I mentally thanked harry for not liking her, that would've broken my heart. I typed his name into the message box and was just about to send a 'heeyyyyy xx' to him when a little notification popped up. 'Friend request from Clare Hallow'. I clicked accept and she immediately started talking to me. Not in a pleasant way i have to say.

Clare: oh you're the one who harry is so protective over huh? Hey x 

Madeline: uhh i don't know what you mean but hey you're Lauren's sister right?

Clare: he was being very close to you today, well he's mine so stay off :)

Madeline: are you Lauren's sister?

Clare: don't change the subject you little slut

Madeline: harry doesn't like me you are basically all he ever talks about i promise :)

I was lying about this but i didnt want to get into any more trouble

Clare: well i want you to do something for me seeing as he 'doesn't like you' xx

Madeline: what is it?

Clare: you have to say yes or no first, and remember i can make your life a living hell xx

Madeline: okay umm yes then

Clare: you are going to be my own personal stalker :) find out where he is holidaying this year for me xx

At this i shut my laptop in shock. What she was asking of me was way beyond what i expected. At most i was expecting a 'stay away from him' but this was too far. I had stalked him to his house but not to a private holiday! What did she even want with that information? I dread to even think.. Why did i even agree before hearing what she had to say?! I am so dumb sometimes.. Well, i'd better start operation stalk harry sooner rather than later if i didn't want to get my butt kicked. What have you done now Maddie?

A/N so this isnt a happy chappie huh? Nobody's reading this and i dont think it'll ever actually get popular but oh well anyone who does it'd be great! Vote, comment, fan! Whatever, love you guys xx
