Harry's Point of View

I swear she sat there for what I thought felt like hours when in reality it was about 10 seconds.

"Harry Styles...as in the Harry Styles, Harry Styles from One Direction Harry Styles"

Gosh she is so cute.

"Haha, yes don't look so shocked"

"I'm not I'm just, it's just I am a huge fan of your music, I know you're not global, yet, but wow...oh my gosh I must sound like a complete idiot right now"

How does she keep getting cuter and cuter, every time she speaks?

It took a couple of seconds to realize I had just been staring at her mesmerized by her beauty, the way her brown lightly curled hair just reached below her breasts, her electrifying blue eyes staring deeply into my green ones, her plump rosy lips and her beautiful smile.

"Harry" her words snapped me back to reality.

"What?" she asked

"Huh? Sorry I was daydreaming. Yes I'm a part of One Direction, and can I say I'm flattered to know that you love our music, it's good to know that we aren't actually known as 'horrible' to some people"

Before we knew it class had finished and we left in a flash. I mean I love poetry but man does that stuff want to put you to sleep. I guided her to my locker where she waited for me to put them in my locker. She was preoccupied with whatever was on her phone. I stood there for about 5 seconds staring at her complexion, it wasn't long till she realised I was.

"Come on I'm hungry"

"Alright, but after we stop at my locker of course"

She directed me to her locker, I noticed everyone was staring at her, and whispering to each other as we walked pass them. What had happened to make them react like this towards such a beautiful girl? I could feel her tense beside me as we finally reached her locker. She twisted the lock till her locker opened, inside her locker being photographs of what seemed to be, friends and family.

After she closed her locker, we walked towards the canteen. We waited in line for about a minute until it was our turn to get our lunch, Rhiannon only got a bottle of water and an apple where as I got a salad, an ice tea and a banana.

I went to walk and find us a place to seat, when I turned to see Rhiannon stopped in her tracks.

"Harry, let's go somewhere else"

"Why? I think here's fine"

"No. Seriously please can we go somewhere else I hate it in here, it gets to crowded"

"Sure"

I followed behind her. I could see she was upset, something wasn't right and I was going to be the one to find out what was bothering her.

We walked to a spot outside in what looked to be a courtyard. It was completely empty; she knew her way quite well meaning she probably sits here all the time, by herself. As we sat down, she opened the bottle of water and took a small sip.

"Rhi, what did James mean when he said you were the school slut before in the hallway?"

Her head dropped and I instantly I knew that this was a touchy subject for her. She looked up at me and tears had formed in her eyes, my heart immediately ached for her. I wanted her to know she was safe with me and that she can trust me with anything.

"Hey, hey don't cry, don't cry"

I moved closer to her placing my hand on her back rubbing slow circles just to comfort her. Her sobs become louder to the point they were uncontrolled cries. I hugged her tight, hoping the tears would stop soon. She calmed down after about a minute, she wiped the last tear that fell from her eyes.

"I'm sorry for that, I feel like an idiot"

Is she serious, she's beautiful even when she cries.

"Don't be silly, it's fine, it seems like you've been through hell. Do you want to talk about it?"

She faced me, preparing herself to tell me what happened.

"3 months ago. James and I were together; at least I thought we were. One night I got really tipsy and I was snapchatting him. The snapchats turned dirty very quickly, to the point I was just in my underwear and he was sending me photos himself. He manipulated me into sending him something that I thought I would never send. He said I could trust him and that he wouldn't show anyone let alone screenshot the photo. But I guess I was wrong. I saw that he screenshot the photo and I rung him straight away abusing him making sure that what I had just done was deleted and that he didn't send it or show anyone."

She took a deep breath and at this point I was fuming, how could James do this to someone so innocent and so fragile?

"He told me he deleted the photo and that he didn't show anyone the photo and I believed him. After that I told him I was tired and I went to bed. The next morning I woke up to 6 missed phone calls from Molly my best friend. I rung her back and she told me what James did, he posted the photo online for everyone to see including my family and friends, and ever since then I have been called rude names, laughed at and teased.  It got to the point where I was put on anti-depressants and I didn't go to school for two weeks. My parents were angry at first but then they said what's done is done we can't do anything about it, James got a new girl the second this all happened. It stung a little because I was in love with him. I thought he was the one"

It hurt me so much to see her like this.

"That's why everyone always looks at me and whispers when they see me in the hallway, and that's why I didn't want to go to the canteen and have lunch there because I knew it would be the same as the hallways, everyone whispering and calling me names. It's been 3 months since the incident and I just want it all to stop, I want it to be forgotten"

"Look, Rhiannon, I'm not going to tell you that what you did was the right thing. But I'm going to tell you the thing is, I'm not going to stop sticking up for you whenever someone calls you a rude name or whispers or laughs about you, because I see you as my best friend and well my only friend. You're an amazing girl who deserves nothing but the nicest things in life. I hope you can see that too"

I can see her cheeks turning bright red knowing that my compliment has impacted her. In a good way I hope!

"Thank you, for being the 4th person that hasn't judged my horrible decisions"

"It's okay, what are friends for?"
