Chapter 32

Taken

"Thalia...?" Harry asked in confusion while I tried to remember how to breath. My head was spinning, thoughts running through my mind at enormous speed and making my head dizzy and out of control.

"Hi, Harry...," Thalia spoke and slowly started to make her way past the happy couples that were still hugging a few meters away from us. Just seeing her prettiness made me sick and I felt my own confidence drop inside me. Her big, sparkling, brown eyes didn't even seem to notice me where I was standing next to Niall a few feet away from the love of my life, which seemed to be the only thing she saw. She was about my height, which meant quite short, but since I was wearing the horrible stilettos, I was at least three inches taller at the moment.

Ever since I had been a kid, I had dreamed about having long, curly, brown hair and looking at Thalia, who, of course, had that perfectly styles brown Hollywood curls, made me wish that once more. My own blond and straight hair suddenly felt very boring and lacking of personality and her perfectly fit body made me want to go and hide in a corner. Her worn out jeans fitted her perfectly, showing of her curves and her bright smile revealed small dimples in her cheeks. She had all of those things I had always wished for; curly hair, dimples, fit body, flawless smile... Compared to her, I was nothing...

The beautiful girl, who could have been Harry's sister, went straight for her former boyfriend and hugged his neck. When he slowly put his well trained arms around her back, confused and distracted, it felt like someone was kicking me on the inside of my stomach and I tried to focus on my breathing. My throat was dry as a desert, keeping me from saying anything at all, which probably was a good thing since the only thing I wanted to do was scream. Scream, cry or just go and die in a corner. Seeing them together, Harry and Thalia, like made for each other, it surprised me that I ever thought that I had an honest chance with him.

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked, a small tone of annoyance in his voice. His jaw was tense, making his jawline even more visible and a muscle in his temples was pounding slightly. Thalia didn't seem to notice, though, and went on smiling brightly at him.

"Well... All the other girlfriends were going here for Liam's birthday and I though that made me invited as well...," she laughed in a jokey tone and I could see Harry frown a little, something he only did when he was confused or irritated.

"But..."

"Don't worry... I've already forgiven you. It was all a big misunderstanding," the gorgeous girl contonued and stroke his cheek with the back of her hand.

Forgiven him for what? I though Harry had been the one getting hurt... Wasn't that what he'd said...? He just wanted to forget about Thalia and move on... Right...?
