Therapy

Chapter 5

Hello. It's me.

**

I slept in really late. I went to bed around 10 and I woke up at 12. I've never slept 14 hours but it feels great.

I spread my arms out into a stretch, making an inhuman noise in the process. I unplug my phone from the charger and look for any notifications.

Harry
I message (10)

Damn

Harry texted me 10 times. And I was sleeping. I face palm myself in frustration and check the messages.

Harry: hey:) wanna hang out today
Harry: you don't have to if you don't want to
Harry: we can meet at scoops
Harry: i dont know if you've heard of it
Harry: it's on Main Street in Medford
Harry: maybe after we can go to the park or something
Harry: sorry I'm spamming you
Harry: again, you don't have to come
Harry: :)

This boy just started texting me yesterday and now he wants to hang out. I'm not so sure when he wants to hang out, but it's gonna take me some time to get ready.

I type a few responses to Harry.

Me: ice cream?
Me: Harry it's December
Me: but I can hang out. What time?

I put my phone down and wait for a response. I hope he doesn't think that I ignored his texts.

Oh no would if he hates me. Would if he doesn't want to talk to me anymore. Would if-

I was cut off my the loud buzz of my phone. I unlocked my phone and it was a text from Harry.

Harry: we don't have to get ice cream. But I was thinking around 1.
Me: 1 is good. I can pick you up at your house. Just give me the address.
Harry: don't be silly. I'll drive you. And since someone doesn't want ice cream. I'll surprise you.
Me: okay sounds good. My address is 12 will wood avenue.
Harry: what city??

I totally forgot that Harry might not live in the same city as me. Would if he lives really far away?

Me: I live in Woburn.
Harry: me 2 :))))

Phew.

Thank goodness.

Harry: be there in 50 mins. See u then.

Fifty minutes!??? Get ready fast Brinely.

I hopped out of bed like a bunny and immediately got ready. I took extra time on my appearance today considering I would be seeing Harry.

I put on dabbed on foundation, swiped on concealer, I even contoured my face.
After putting on my mascara I was finally finished.

Not quite.

I ran to my closet in search of an outfit. The alarm clock by my bed says the time is 12:53.

Shît. I really spent 40 minutes on my makeup?? See what your doing Harry.

After tearing apart my closed I finally found something to wear. I paired my black leggings with a maroon sweater and slipped on my timberlands.

With the little time remaining I quickly threw my hair up into a messy bun and right on cue the doorbell rang.

"Brinely!!!" My mom screams from downstairs.

Oh no.

I totally forgot that she was here. Before she could yell my name again I bolted down the stairs.

The front door was open revealing a standing Harry. He smiled at me and waved. Besides him was my mother smirking.

"Brinely." She starts.

"Mother." I reply hoping not to get grounded in front of Harry.

"You didn't tell me that we had a visitor." She says giving me the eye.

"Sorry Mom I forgot to tell you. This is my friend Harry we met a few days ago and we are hanging out. Okay bye."

Before she got to speak again, I grabbed Harry's arm and tugged him out of the house, and slammed the door.

Phew. Now that that's over with.

"What a lovely mother you have." Harry smiles next to as he opens his car door for me to get in.

He has a Range Rover. My dream car.

Thanks Obama.

I smile at Harry and take a seat in his beautiful car. Harry smiles at me, slams the door and climbs in on the other side.

"Sorry about that, I didn't tell her that you were coming." I said, picking at my nails.

"No worries. She didn't seem too mad though. Good thing she didn't do anything bad." Harry said next to me as he put his keys in his ignition.

I smiled, turned to him and said, "So, where are we going?"

He turned to me and smirked. "Not telling it's a surprise." He said smugly.

"Okay. Whatever floats your boat."

Here we go.
