The Bluff (Harry Styles Fanfiction) #JustWriteIt

Family is Always Alright

I leaned on the counter and texted my mom, wondering what she was up to, and who she was with. My parents have been really struggling lately with their marriage and it makes me happy that they are together tonight, out to dinner.

I heard 2 knocks on the doors and I made my way towards the door expecting the girls to be there, again. I grabbed the handle and opened the door and saw a curly-haired, green eye'd boy.

I sighed as he stood there and smiled "I may be single now, but that doesn't mean you can pull a quickie on me. I am not available." I rolled my eyes as I slowly tried to close the door.

"I didn't come to do that. I came to see if you were alright. And if you wanted to- sorta- uhm- hang out?" he stuttered as he crossed his hands in front of him. He was wearing a white t-shirt, a tight pair of black skinny jeans, and white converse. His abdomen was visible through his shirt.

I softened up as I felt bad for having such a nasty attitude " I'm completely fine. I'm not feeling like hanging out tonight. I'm tired, I'm sorry. " I slowly closed the door on him and then stood behind the door. I leaned against the door and crossed my arms.

I rubbed my eyes and head as all this stress overwhelmed me. I've been dating Jake for 2 years and this is how he repays me. I should of listened to my family when they said that he wasn't right for me. Family is always right wether I wanna listen to them or not.

There was another knock at the door and I almost felt happy because I don't know if I want to be home alone tonight. I opened the door slightly and saw Harry again, his smile wasn't as big, but it was innocent, and sweet.

"Let's start this again. Pretend none of it happened. " he smiled as he turned around, walked down the stairs, and then walked back up.

"Hey, Sophia. I came to see if you were alright, and if you wanted to just hang out. Nothing else. And I brought brownies." He said as he held the plate of brownies in his hands.

I chuckled a bit, and stood there and thought about it for a second. I looked around, and tried to mess with him as I kept making him wait for my answer.

"Alright, come in."

He smiled and he handed me the brownies. We walked into my home and I heard him wipe his feet on the mat. I placed the plate of brownies on the counter.

We made our way upstairs to my bedroom "So Ashley is having one of the biggest parties of the year, and you're here?" I opened my bedroom door and began to take my earrings, and rings off and placed them on my dresser. "What's a party without the one and only Sophia. "

"And.. I have priorities. " he added.

I turned around and faced him as I crossed my arms "Since when am I one of your priorities..? We don't even know each other. I don't even know why you're in my house. "

He replied back immediately "You're so convinced that everyone is a bad person and everyone is out to get you. "

"No, I'm just convinced that you're a bad person. You're a douche bag just like Jake and the rest of your people." I snapped.

"You don't know me. You need a reality check because would a douche bag like me be here with you? Where the fuck are all your friends, huh? Believe it or not, Im not here to fucking ruin your life, or make you upset. You're stubborn, and you're rude to all the wrong people." he said in anger and I didn't know what to say after. I was so angry and upset at the same time, but mostly angry. Who does he think he is?

"You can get out of my house now, thanks.." I said as I turned away and walked outside on the balcony. I heard my door close, which meant he left. And I was here alone.

I walked down the balcony stairs and sat in the smooth, brown sand. I looked up at the moon. Its pale light brightening the dark sky as it was surrounded by a million tiny stars. The water was smooth, and there wasn't a single wave out there.

A tear wen't down my cheek and then seconds after a whole flood of tears streamed down my cheeks as I sobbed all my feelings out.

--------------------------------

I stood behind her door, rethinking about what just happened. I regretted what I said and completely forget that she just got her heart broken. I feel like such an asshole.

I opened her door quietly, and called her name. She was not in her room. I looked in her bathroom, and she wasn't in there either. I walked on the balcony, hoping to see her but she wasn't there.

I felt upset that she left, and I couldn't make her feel better. I don't know why I wanted to make her feel better. She hated me.

I heard a few quiet sobs and I looked below me and realized it was her, sitting in the sand, sobbing into her hands. That sob made my heart ache. It's like seeing your mother cry, it definitely hurts your heart.

I walked down the stairs and sat next to her in the sand.

----------------------

I heard someone walking down my stairs and I looked up and it was Harry once again. I wanted to yell and tell him to go away after the way he spoke to me, but I didn't. For some reason, I didn't. He sat next to me and I began to scoot closer to him. He was okay with it, and then he put his arm around me as we leaned back against these rocks.

I snuggled into his chest and felt very comfortable, physically, but emotionally as well.

I never imagined I would end up snuggled up against one of the people I hated the most, on one of my worst nights.
