Harry's P.O.V
I was the first one in homeroom today; I was waiting for the bell to ring so I could see the class fill up with the rest of the students including one in particular, Meredith.
As soon as Miss Robinson opened that door for Principal carter and me yesterday she sent my body into shock. I've never ever felt so nervous before. I couldn't look, I couldn't speak all I could do was scroll through my phone that entire class. I could see that her and her friends were trying to get my attention but I just couldn't look up. I was frozen.
Knowing that I probably made a bad impression in homeroom I tried to talk to her a lot in Between our classes, in the cafeteria, on the soccer oval when I was playing soccer But I never had the chance until after school when we bumped into each other. I was stunned by how pretty she was up in person and how she made my heart skip a beat even though I didn't know her. Her awkwardness and her laugh made me fall even harder then when I first set eyes on her earlier that day. It was my time to shine and I did.
I was surprised that she took my offer to give her a ride back home and trust me it was the best 20-minute drive I've ever had. She showed me little pieces of her and by the time I watched her close her front door I knew that I had to do everything to see her and talk to her again which now leads to me sitting here in homeroom 5 minutes early.
As the time ticked along the students soon started to fill the classroom. I heard a bunch of girl's laughter and I lifted my head to the door only to see Meredith's friends Ruby and Eva. She wasn't with them. My heart dropped because I had been waiting to flash her my smile to receive hers back all night ever since she closed her doors.
Watching ruby and Eva walk in the class as soon as they saw me their facial expressions were confused to why I was still sitting with them and why I was smiling at them. As soon as they sat down I turned around and started to ask them questions because I knew I wouldn't be able to for the rest of the day seeing that I had no classes with them.
"Good morning ladies! How is everyone?, how did you guys sleep?" They both looked at each other not sure on how to react. "Morning Harry." They both said in unison. I had to ask. "No Meredith today?" "I'm not sure I thought she was coming to school, maybe she slept in?" said Eva. "Why do you want to know Harry?" Ruby asked with this silly, girly grin on her face. "Was just wondering you know...." I flashed them a wink and then turned back around in my seat to the front of the class room where Miss Robinson soon came in and started homeroom.
After homeroom all I was thinking about was what was I going to do when I saw her again but as soon as I started to think my thoughts got interrupted. "Harry!" I turned around to see Eva catching up to me. "Please don't break her heart!" she said with pleading eyes. "Don't become one of them." She said pointing to my new friends Liam, Zany, Niall and Louis. I didn't know what she was talking about because those guys were my new friends and I didn't think anything bad about them at all but because of Meredith I had to agree. But I mean I wouldn't be able to break her heart if I didn't have it and if I did have it why would I want to break it. If I broke such a perfect heart I would break my own in the process. Why would I want to put us both through something like that? "I wont Eva, I promise." I flashed her a smile, she nodded and then we went our separate ways.
My first three classes went by fast and because I didn't have Meredith to admire I had to think of a way to see her today. Its like I am addicted which I cant deny because it seems like I am but when you meet someone just like Meredith she's like a drug and its hard not to turn to it every second of the day.
At the end of the third class my teacher Mr. Oakfield asked the class about giving Meredith her work she missed from today. "Now class before you go today, I need someone to drop off Meredith's class work that she missed because it is the work leading up to our test on Friday." My hand shot up without me realising what I was doing. "Styles? Will you take it to her?" The whole class turned to face me confused on why the new guy wanted to. "Yes sir, I would be happy to do that! Plus I know her brother so I can give it to her this afternoon." "Great that would be very helpful, thank you Harry." Mr. Oakfield replied.
