Chapter 10

"Bitch! What the hell?" Stella screams.

"What?" I ask because I'm confused on why she's yelling at me.

"You're wearing my shoes!" She screams pointing at the shoes on my feet. I look down and observe the white converse on my feet that I'm wearing with my sheer white shirt and black leggings.

"Are you kidding me right now Stella?" I ask giving her a straight face.

"No I'm not kidding! If you get a spot of dirt on those babies I will end you!" She says raising her thick and beautiful eyebrows.

"Yeah yeah yeah I get it." I say. I roll my eyes and walk down the stairs.

"Bye mom, bye dad!" I yell to my parents.

"Oh, bye sweetie! How are you planning on getting to school?" My mother asks.

"A friend is picking me up." I yell as I open the front door.

"Okay sweetie, have a good day!" She yells. I walk outside and close the door behind me.

It's warmer than I expected. I slip one side of my hair behind my ear as walk towards the street.

"Good morning Riley." Harry says as he's leaning up against his car. He's wearing a short sleeved blue, white, and red flannel that is slightly rolled up on his shoulders and black skinny jeans.

"Good morning Harry." I say smiling. He grabs my hand and pulls me in for a kiss. I can feel my insides tingle when his lips touch mine but I pull away and he begins to smile. He opens the car door for me and I thank him as he closes the door and walks around the car to climbs into the drivers seat.

"You look lovely." He says as he puts on his seat belt.

"Thank you, I like your shirt. It's cool how it's short sleeved." I say pointing to his arm.

"I know, it was really hard to find." He says as he starts the car.

He drives off the curb and into the empty street. As we reach the highway he turns on the radio. Sorry by Justin Bieber comes on.

"OH MY GOSH! This is my favourite song!?" I shout while turning up the music. Harry looks at me smiling then back at the road over and over.

"Your dancing is.... something else?" He says laughing.

I shove his shoulder.

"Remind me to play a really simple song for us to dance to at our wedding." He says.

"Our wedding? We aren't even dating and you're already planning our wedding?" I ask while immediately ending my magnificent dance routine.

"Haha, I was just kidding. Just wanted to see your reaction." He says looking back at the road. I may have liked Harry for 3 years now but marriage has never crossed my mind.

We pull up to the school parking lot. I was nervous of course. What would people think when they saw Harry and I show up together? It didn't even really process in my mind yesterday when he told me he was going to pick me up. It kind felt like a couple thing to do but I guess he just wants to spend time together. Harry told me already that he wouldn't care what people thought but I was worried if Harry just said that to make me feel better.

He parks his car in the middle of the school parking lot. When he stops the car, he looks over at me with a smile.

"You ready to go?" He asks. I nod my head yes even though my mind was saying no.

"I'll carry your bag." He says as he reaches for it in the back seat.

"No no, I can handle it. I'm a 17 year old girl, I'm not 8." I say. He laughs and walks out of the car. Before I can even open the door for myself, Harry has already made it over to the other side of the car and opens the door for me. He puts his hand out and I gently grab his palm as he lets me out of the car before I shut it close and begin to walk.

People begin to stare in our direction. I look over at Harry who is looking dead ahead with his head held high. Fingers of numerous people begin to point.

Harry begins to talk to me as though nobody else were around. Though I could hear his words, I didn't process any of them for-real because my mind was focus on all the people staring.

Some girls look me up and down as I walk by like I was chopped liver. Harry did a little shoulder bump to me to see if I was paying attention but I really just wasn't. I've never had so many eyes on me at once.

Harry stops right in front of me causing me to stop moving on the sidewalk. His hand pushes my hair behind my ear as he tries to get my attention.

"Riley? Are you okay?" Harry says as I flicker my eyes to his green ones. He helps me come to but I can still feel the eyes, maybe even more eyes now that Harry's all up in my grill.

"Everyone's staring." I reply as Harry's hand softly slides down my arm.

"I can feel your heart beating from your pulse. Don't be so nervous. Remember if they give you shit, just give them a toilet."

I laugh at his horrible pun and nudge him in his side as he laughs as well. He kisses my cheek before he turns forward and I swear I heard someone gasp as we walked together into the front of the school.

5 minutes later...

"I'll be back, I'm going to put my stuff in my locker okay?" Harry says to me.

"Okay, don't be long." I say to him. I was being honest. The gossip is already going around. God knows what they are saying about Harry and I. Some think we're dating, others think it's just a hook up. I'm trying my best to stay calm and rational about it but I need Harry to help me.

As I look at the mini mirror in my locker, I smile to myself. I'm happy that he's not hiding whatever it is that we are. All though the stares that people are throwing at me are kinda weird and creepy but it will be alright because he seems proud to have me by his side.

"Why are you smiling?" Kurt says as he walks up to me and opens his locker.

"Oh, hi Kurt." I say completely avoiding his question.

"Hey bitch, now answer my question. Why are you smiling?" He says as he takes his binder out of his bag. I hesitate to answer.

"Riley... What's going on?" He asks suspiciously. I don't respond again. I probably should have told him about me and Harry over text. He'd probably deal with it a lot better that way.

"Riley...?" He asks. I just smile to myself blushing without saying a word.

"Okay Ry, I'm back. You ready?" Harry asks as he walks over and swipes his hands spastically through my hair until its a mess then rests his hand on my shoulder. This was really bad timing.

Kurt looks up at Harry then down at his hand that's placed on my shoulder and then back up at me before his eyes become bold.

"RILEY WHAT IS GOING ON?!" Kurt screams.

-

How do you think Kurt will react? Will he handle it well? Or will basically be cussing out Riley for the rest of her Riley. Haha jk.
