The Dumb and The Clueless

Chapter 71: Do I Know You?

I get a text, from a number I don't know. "I'm coming over! Haven't seen you in forever!" I put a confused face, and then my doorbell rings. I look through the peephole, and find someone who looks vaguely familiar. I open the door, and shocked by a hug, as I stand there stiffly. "Um, do I know you?" He frowns, and stares down at me. "Yeah, my name's Nick!" I stare at him in confusion, and he puts a sad face. "From your school, Midecrest High? In America?" I gasp, as I hug him tightly. "Nick! Oh my god! I haven't seen you in forever! You look so different!" I say, as I let go of him. He smiles while looking down, and looks back up at me. His brown eyes, dark brown hair, and beautiful smile. I remember how I used to have a little crush on him, and I instantly feel like I'm blushing. "So you're in London?" I ask, still confused. He nods, and smiles widely. "I moved here now, I'm going to the same school as you!" I smile, and he pulls me in for a hug. "Aw come here!" I say, before giving him a noogie. He laughs, and then Harry comes downstairs slowly. "Who's this?" he asks, expression serious. "One of my old best friends, Nick. Nick, meet Harry!" Nick's eyes literally light up as he sees Harry. "Oh my god you're-" "Yeah yeah, I'm Harry Styles." I shoot Harry an angry look, as he sticks out his tongue. "Nick, Sorry about Harry. He's a bit cranky lately." "Oh.." "Yeah...sorry" Harry turns around, as he gets a call. "Hello? Oh hey! Haven't seen you in forever! Yeah, Uh-Huh, Okay, Wow that's great! See you soon!" I stare at him as he turns back  around and whispers into my ear. "One of my best friends is coming over, haven't seen her in forever." "Oh...her" He smiles, as he turns around and walks back upstairs. "So, Nick-" "Are you and Harry...you know.... a thing?" I shake my head and laugh, leaving him looking at me puzzled. "Of course not!" I choke out, while laughing. "Come sit down-" I say, breaking the silence. He sits next to me, as I have an open notebook on the table. "Katieeeeee.." "Wha-" "You still draw?" he asks, looking into my notebook. "Yes..." I say, blushing and snatching the notebook away. I crumble a piece of paper, as I throw it at him. "Remember our paper-ball fights?" "Yeah, those were wicked!" He laughs as he crumbles a piece of paper and throws it back at me. "Oh it's on!" I say while laughing as I throw a bunch of them at him, as he throws them to me. "Stopppp Nickkkk!" I choke out, trying to breathe from laughing so hard. The living room is literally FULL of paper balls, as we're still finishing the notebook's pages, as we throw paper balls at each other, both of us laughing so hard, our stomachs are hurting. I lay my head on his lap as I laugh, and he smiles down at me. When suddenly, there's a knock on the door.  KNOCK! KNOCK!
