FATE

Chapter 7

H a r r y

she looked absolutely stunning, i couldn't keep my eyes off of her. She kept catching me stare and i wasn't ashamed of it, in fact i had told her that she looked beautiful. when we were getting i the cars i decided to go in my own. Salma was going to go with Louis and Charlotte but i had asked her to come with me. I want her to trust me. Tonight was going to be good, i can feel it since everyone is a good mood. The club wasn't that far , it took us about 15 minutes to get there. Along the way i asked Salma about her high school years. i felt her tense up at the question. and she replied with small comments like ' it was fine, Not much to talk about' it wasn't believable but i did not bring up the subject again. Instead i asked her other stuff. "Are you ready for Uni?" she took a moment before replying "well, im excited, i feel like it will be a lot better than high school. Are you going to the same Uni as we are?" there was a glint of hope in her voice.

"Yeah i am actually, I've had a gap year and now I'm starting with you all. The only people that would be on their second year of Uni are Louis and Liam. Niall and I should start with all three of you, btw what are you even studying? don't you have a shop already?"

"Actually I do, Hannah, Charlotte and I are studying art, but i'm also taking business and Literature. If i have a shop doesn't mean i cant get my degree Harry" i rolled my eyes at him shaking my head. " what are you studying?"

"well actually, I'm also studying literature and business but my third subject is law. I don't really have an artistic talent."

We finally arrived and i rushed  to open the door before  salma got the chance to open it Herself. she thanked me as i helped her out of the car we met everyone in front of the door and i walked up to the body guard which happened to be my friend Luke. After catching up with Luke for 5 minutes he let us skip the line and let us in. He even asked the manager for a VIP table.

Salma looked at me and gave me a questioning glare, sort of asking me what that was about. I shrugged mouthing to her 'it was nothing'.

we walked into the crowded club, and loud music booming through the speakers. Harry lead the way and the rest of us were right behind him, we pushed through the crowd trying to stay together but as i figured i lost them. i looked around me and couldn't find anyone. I began to panic, i felt a pair of arms go around my waist to pull me closer. i jumped at the contact feeling highly uncomfortable. I tried to push away but the man wont budge his arms wouldn't loosen. The tears were pricking at my eyes and my breathing became heavier. i kept trying until his arms were instantly removed. I turned around to see Harry's hands clutching onto the man's shirt. throwing punches at his face, I had to beg him to stop before he killed him. The man had the nerve to speak to Harry "That all you got?" Harry stopped in his track and turned around, walking back to the man that was sprawled along the floor with blood dripping from his nose. Harry took a big kick that was aimed at the man's stomach, then leaned down next to his face " Don't touch my girl" then turned back around to me. i didn't realise that my breathing was still heavy. Harry immediately hugged me. "calm down, I'm here No one can hurt you" he held me in his arms for what seemed like a life time. When he finally let go he entwined our finger and lead me off the dance floor. When we arrived at the table I sat down next to Louis who's hand was on Charlotte's thigh and the close proximity of their bodies. I couldn't stop thinking about how Harry called me His girl to be honest i liked the way it sounded but that would sound ridiculous at this point . i honestly did not expect it from him to say that and it confused me more about Harry. I was really curious, but decided not to comment on it.

I felt the seat sink next to me indicating that harry took a seat.  He looked at me with a worried eyes and finally spoke up "how are you feeling" it took me a while to process my thoughts but finally answered "i feel okay just a bit creeped out, but thank you harry" he smiled at me and called the bar tender and ordered two beers for him and I. Looking around the table i can see  that almost everyone was drunk, except harry and I. "you want to dance?" harry put his hand out for me to take. i agreed happily and stood us and made our way to the dance floor where there were sweaty bodies close to each other, grinding on each other. Harry snaked his arm around my waist and pulled me closer so we were now chest to chest our bodies swayed to the music, his body hugged mine and we fit together perfectly. I looked into his Green eyes and realised that his eyes dilated. A smirk played at his lips and i smiled back at him. His face inched closer to mine and my breath was caught it my throat. his lips slightly brushed mine, but we were interrupted. "Harry, Mate is that you?" i could see Harry's expression grow annoyed. "Zayn!!" this Zayn guy approached us with his fingers entwined with a girls. Harry immediately went in for a brotherly hug. "i haven't seen you in ages man, how have you been?" harry tried to speak over the music but it was clearly hard to make out what he had said.

Zayn whispered something to Harry, so he held my hand and followed him. We were now in the balcony where things were much quieter. "Sorry i didn't introduce myself, Im Zayn" he held his hand out and i accepted it. "Salma" i smiled back. Now that there was more light to see, I could tell that Zayn had thick black hair that was into a quiff with brown eyes and a bright perfect smile, similar to Harry's. Zayn spoke up"This is my Girlfriend Parin" my eyes moved to her and i hugged her. she had long black hair similar to Zayn's with green eyes and tanned skin. They really suit each other. while Harry and Zayn were having a conversation, i got to know Parin a little bit more and she was born in Canada and grew up there then moved here in her last years of high school. I was getting a little cold outside so i excused myself from them. Harry gave me a worried look and said goodbye to them before catching up with me to hold my hand once again. "You know you could've stayed." i turned to look at him waiting for his reply."No, i didn't want to leave you alone." i kissed him on the cheek quickly. I got the reaction i was expecting, he looked at me with wide shocked eyes.we started walking back to the table only to find Niall sitting with a girl, Liam and Hannah in the middle of a kiss, but i charlotte ad louis were no where in sight. I turned around and scanned the room only to find them in the corner of a room, Louis holding Charlotte against the wall while they were in the middle of a make out session, i nudged harry and pointed at them for him to notice. He briefly looked at them and gave me a smile. "They're cute together" he commented, I nodded my head agreeing with his comment.

After a few Minutes Charlotte and Louis returned to the table, and we decided it was time to go home. Charlotte, Louis, Niall and Hannah were plastered. They could barely walk straight. Instead of going back with Harry, i've decided to drive Louis car since he wouldn't be able to drive home. I got into the car with Louis and Charlotte in the back seat, Niall had went with Harry and Liam took Hannah with him. The car ride was pretty silent. Charlotte started to get tired and put her head o Louis lap. I could tell he was almost sober as he was rubbing his temple from the bad headache he was already having. By now i know that Charlotte would've been fast asleep. " Take care of her Lou, Don't hurt her" he looked at me confused at my sudden statement " I give you my word Sal, I really do like her" at that moment we arrived at the building and we all parked the cars and headed to the elevator, Lou was carrying Charlotte bridal style. when we arrived to the apartment Louis went into my apartment and put Charlotte in her room. Hannah said bye to Liam and i waved to the boys after they all disappeared into Harry's house, he was the only one left standing there, i was about to walk back inside the house but he grabbed my hand and pulled me back close. Our faces were really close now, noses brushing lightly. I didn't know what to say, Harry leaned in closing his eyes. My feet were glued to the ground, i couldn't bring myself to pull away. I didn't want to pull away. I closed my eyes and our lips collided  causing butterflies in my stomach, i lips moulded together. The kiss Came with a lot of passion and emotion and i could feel that it meant something special, that it would be the change we both needed between us. Things will no longer be awkward, maybe we will come to trust each other.

Her lips tasted like strawberries, i couldn't bring myself to stop. In the moment everything was so perfect, she was able to make my heart rate increase by 99% almost pounding out of my chest. I could feel that this is the start of a new beginning. I really hope that she does not find about my past. I will tell her but i don't want her to doubt anything about what this could be yet. i could tell that we were running out of breathe, and suddenly her lips were no longer on mine. She looked down at her feet and back up to look straight into my eyes. I could see that she was blushing and i kind of  liked that effect on her, shows how innocent she is. "I had to do it" i explained myself. She came closer and embraced me in a hug, I hugged her back and placed a small kiss on her head.

"Good night Harry"

"Good night babe" and with that she walked back in to her house. I turned around and made my way back to mine with a dumb grin on my face.
