School.

If I could choose to be anywhere on a Monday morning the last place would be school. Carson High was overcome with students on the chilling day.  I hurriedly got out of the car seeing Erin laugh at Luke, he probably said something stupid usual for Mr. Miller.

I walked toward my friends to see a strange sight, Harry stood near the entrance of the school and he was waving at me.  I waved back as Erin looked at me in confusion.

"Who are you waving to?" Emily asked.

"Harry." I smiled Erin and Aubrey gasped in happiness.  "Hey guys." Michael panted as he ran to us. "Hi cousin." Erin giggled, Michael looked at her unhappiness. Did something happen at Aubrey's legendary party?

The bell rang getting me away from the awkward silence. "Did I miss something?" I asked Michael quietly. "Let's just say Erin is a shitty cousin and a fucked up friend." He whispered glaring at Erin. The conversation between me and Michael ended there as I walked to English. 

The classroom was pleased, maybe it was because Mrs. Walters wasn't there. I had always loved when a teacher wasn't there because that meant less work and less stress. 

"Hey." Harry said sitting down at the neighboring desk. "Hi Harry." I grinned seeing Danielle walk in tiredly.

"Hi Tass!" She sighed plopping next to me. Her breath smelling like a bar. "Are you, drunk?" I whispered as the tardy bell rang.

"Just a little." She mumbled placing her head on the desk. "Hello." Our substitute announced, as he walked up to the podium.

He smiled as he began to call roll. "You're teacher left me absolutely no instructions so I printed out cross-word puzzles, enjoy!" The greying substitute teacher announced handing them to Finn.

"Hey dude!" Finn laughed. "Hey." Harry nonchalantly said leaning back into his chair. "Hi Tulsa." Finn smiled handing me my paper. "Hi Finn." I giggled moving next to Harry.

"Too cool for me now Harry?" I giggled as he properly sat up. "No, never!" Harry announced looking at me in confusion. "It's a joke." I smiled causing him to loosen up. "Oh." He said. 

"Did you have fun with me at the party?" I asked and he nodded happily. "Yeah! It was very fun. It was very fun." He answered.

"I am sorry you had to drive me home, if we ever go to another party I will be the one doing the driving, okay?" I smiled.

"Okay." Harry said and he began to giggle.

We began to work on the sports related crossword puzzle. Surprisingly, Mrs. Walters didn't leave instructions she was an extremely organized teacher. Her class was unexciting but, it was always nice to see Harry, sometimes Danielle.

"Harry! The girls' soccer team is playing sometime this month and I was wondering if you wanted to go?" I asked him and he nodded. "Definitely that would be awesome! I don't-don't know much about soccer though." He smiled.

"You'll catch on" I whispered as the bell rang.

Everyone evacuated the large class room hearing the substitute say unimportant things. Harry and I parted our separate ways. I sauntered off to Mr. Oswald's room to hear a tedious lecture about anatomy. 

"Hello Tulsa!" Mr. Oswald said. "Hi" I replied walking into his dim and odd smelling room.  The classroom was silent as they copied notes off the board. "Great!" I mumbled sitting next to an adorable junior named Austin.

The infamous Oswald lecture today was about mitochondria. Something else was infamous about Mr. Oswald besides his lectures were his test! If you did study the highest grade you would get on average was an eighty.  But, the man was an astonishing teacher.

"Tulsa! Where can mitochondria be found?" Mr. Oswald questioned. I sighed in defeat, he always calls on me. "The cytoplasm!" I announced happily, the only thing I remember from biology.

Mr. Oswald nodded in agreement, "Yes that is correct Ms. Stewart." He stated, continuing his speech. The greying Mr. Oswald ran across the room excited, he was bizarre.

The lunch bell sounded as we all stormed out of the dark room. "See you guys on Wednesday tell me where we left off!" Mr. Oswald announced. Alas the infamous Oswald lecture continues...

I walked off to the large cafeteria seeing Erin distraught and her cousin rolling his eyes at her, obnoxiously.  "Hi guys!" I smiled walking over to them. "Hi" they said in unison. We awkwardly stood in line as everyone else joins us.  "Hey." Brad announced staring at me.

"Hi" I said, grabbing my unhealthy lunch. We all silently walked back to the table the secrets from Friday still hidden.  "Are you people alive?" Luke laughed causing everyone to slightly chuckle.

Harry sat a few feet away from the abnormally quiet table. I caught his intense but, fascinating stare and I quickly gave him the well-known Tulsa smile. Harry's smile in my opinion should be well known though I loved how his jade eyes would crinkle and how his cavernous dimples were revealed in a matter of seconds. His smile was, genuine.

Gently, I pat the open space next to me. "Sit over here!" I mouthed and he bashfully nodded no. "Come on!" I smiled patting the bench more forcefully. He got up slowly walking over to me and my friends hesitantly.

"Hey what is Harry doing?" Erin questioned. "Sitting with us, I asked him too." I answered as she squealed in happiness. Harry slowly sat down causing everyone to look at him curiously.

"Harry what's up man?" Luke smiled as Brad looked at him angered. "The sky?" Harry questioned making Luke laugh loudly but, Harry still had no clue what he meant. "Have you always lived in Portland?" Emily asked, happily. "No." He responded.

"How about the party man? Did you have a good time" Luke questioned.

"It was definitely, something. I am prob-probably the only one here that remem-remembers it." Harry casually stated making everyone giggle. "True." Luke chuckled, staring at Erin awkwardly.

"I surprisingly remember everything." Aubrey added. "You don't forget anything babe." Luke smiled kissing her gently causing everyone to mentally throw-up.

"So, Harry if any of us threw another party would you be down to come?" Luke questioned. "Maybe." Harry smiled as the table entered a silent stage again. It was a strange day but, man how I wished I knew what happen at the party.

...

Happy Labor Day! Is that weird to say? Well anyway...how is everyone? Sorry I haven't been posting as much I've been really busy with school and some other extracurricular activities! In this story Harry is actually American so no accent it's tragic because I love his accent but, I thought it would make more sense if he was American. I hope everyone is having a good Labor day
