The hours seems to pass agonizingly slow as I wait for Harry to fetch me. My heart seems to beat faster every time the time ticks. I check the time on my phone and it's already five pm. Harry said he'll pick me up at seven so I have still time to kill

I go down the stairs to see my grandmother watching T.V while sipping on his tea. Her head flick on the stairs where i was standing. She pats the space beside her, motioning me to go down there. I immediately complied and walk, sitting beside her.

The time had passed and Harry isn't here yet.

Two hours and i'm still cool. At least I try to act like it. I've texted him but he didn't answer.

The next three hours I've been waiting for Harry to fetch me. It's already nine thirty minutes n the evening and my nan was already upstairs in her room getting ready to sleep. The first hour Harry was late i just shrugged it off thinking he was just getting ready considering he has a football training today. The second hour I was a bit nervous. I kept telling myself that he'll come and my grandmother was starting to ask of Harry will come.

"He will granny. He was just running late." I show her my most convincing smile the i can muster even though I was twitching on the inside.

"For two hours?" She questions more to herself. I just continue watching this British comedy show. Joining my grandmother if she laughs even though I can't find anything funny. American and British humor were really different I guess.

There was at one point that I thought Harry was already there when a i saw car headlights stopped by our house. I literally jumped off the couch and smiled widely before rushing to the door , opening it widely. But my hopes were immediately crushed down by the time I opened it. She was only dropping out the notes that she borrowed from me. She didn't stay for too long though because her mom was also in the car.

The third hour came and here i was sitting on a couch ready to burst out of tears in any moment. Never in my entire life I have been ditch into a date. There's a first time for anything I guess.

I stay there for a good half an hour just watching the t.v illuminate the room. I wasn't focused on the show. I don't even know what show it is.
"Raffy. Are you okay?" My grandmother asks ,walking down the stairs. I look up at her hiving him a small smile before muttering a low 'yeah'.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah" i sniffed.

"Okay, well if you need something you know where to find me." She says hugging me , before standing up.

Ten o'clock came by and I'm done waiting. I sighed loudly before grabbing the remote and turning off the t.v. i was immediately surrounded by darkness. There was a sudden knock on the door. I lazily stand up, walking to the door, tripping a few times before I finally got there.

I opened the door and came face to face with a very tired looking Harry. He was dressed in shirt and jeans. His hair was messy and matted by his sweat. I look at him with a sleepy expression.

"Rafaela." He says. He takes a few deep breathes before opening his mouth again but I beat him.

"Go home Harry." I said , my face remaining impassive. His eyes shoot wide at my words. If he expects that I'll talk to him after what he did then he expects wrong. And besides i'm already so sleepy.

I wasn't angry. I'm just a bit pissed off because i was very excited for this date. It was just so frustrating.

"Wait, just please let me explain." He pleads.

"I'm tired." I said, voice coming off more hard. He sighs in defeat before i closed the door. I took a deep breath, leaning my back into the door.

I sat on our usual table on the cafeteria patiently waiting for Cindy to get our food. I haven't talked to Harry since the time got here in school. He had texted me earlier saying he was at our house this morning but I wasn't there anymore. I got to school really early finding the house really boring.

I wasn't really avoiding him. Its just there's so much tension between us that i'd rather ignore because I'm not really good at handling those things.

I see Cindy walking towards our table with the boys following her. My eyes drifted to Harry who has his eyes are on me. I held his gaze for a second before turning away.

They all took a sit, Cindy beside me while Harry is in front of me. Chatters filled our table immediately. While i stay silent, just eating my food. It wasn't so awkward until Cindy opened her mouth.

"So how's the date last night?" She has this big grin on her face, like she was expecting a good news.

I look around the table and they're waiting for my answer.

"Uhh." Harry started.

"We didn't go out last night." I said looking at him through my peripheral vision.

"Oh, so you decided to just stay in and get a little cozy?" Niall says with a cheeky smile. The other boys laugh while Cindy giggles beside me.

"No, somebody didn't show up." I glared at them, voice coming hard unintended. They all stop laughing and looked at Harry.

"Oh." All said Cindy then the bell rings signaling our lunch break is over.

The last three subjects was okay. I didn't really get bored because our teacher paired us up for a report on History. Tanner, my partner is a funny guy. We are going to his house to finish our PowerPoint presentation because unfortunately we are the first one to present tomorrow.

My steps came into a halt when i saw a familiar mop of curly hair. He was leaning on the passenger door playing with his keys. I cleared my throat to gain his attention.

"Hey." He said lowly.

"Hey" i said back. "What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to talk." He sighed. "I'm sorry. Something just really came up last night."

"Something came up?" I laugh. "Is it too hard to text me? Harry you made me wait for almost four hours." I see Tanner waving at me. I nodded my head for acknowledgement.

"And I'm sorry." He says, voice getting loud. "Please. Let me make it up to you later to-"

"Hey Raff! Don't forget later four thirty at my house. See you." Tanner said before shutting his car door. "Hey Harry." He waves to Harry before pulling out of the parking lot.

"You're going out with Tanner?" He asks.

"No we're ju-" He shakes his head before turning around and walking off.

"Harry." I tried to catch his wrist but i failed. "Harry" I said louder but he didn't stop.

I roll my eyes before climbing in my car. If he didn't want to talk then fine.

But somehow it frustrate my knowing he thinks differently.
