Chapter 7

He comes up behind me, turning me around before crashing his lips onto mine. I hesitate at first, being shocked by his actions before kissing him back. I rapped my arms around his neck in an effort to bring our bodies closer together, him with his hands on my hips.

He pushes my back against a wall while pushing his body into me. He glides his tongue across my bottom lip and I part my lips, letting him in.

"Jump." He whispers against my lips.

Without breaking our kiss, I jump as he place his hands under my thighs. My hands find their way to his chocolate curls and I gently tug on them, making a deep moan erupt from his body.

He removed his lips from mine and slowly moved in to place a kiss on my neck. His lips centimeters from making contact with my skin, but I shot straight up in bed, my chest rising and falling at a fast pace.

It was a dream. My body is covered in sweat so I whip the covers off of me and turn my body so my feet dangle off my bed. I turn off my alarm that had woken me from my dream. I stare at the floor, replaying it in my head. How do I react to this? I just had a heated dream about a guy I just met. Thank god my alarm woke me up before it could go any farther. Do I like Harry? No, maybe its just sexual attraction. Yeah, thats what it is.

I'm brought back from my thoughts as I see Kristen beginning to wake up. I get up and walk into the bathroom, deciding on taking a shower since I sweated in my sleep. When I'm done, I wash my face and brush my teeth then walk out and head for the closet, Kristen walking into the bathroom as i come out.

I decide on a pair of pink skinny jeans, a white floral top, and a pair of white heels. I grab my brush combing through my hair and then straighten it. When I finish putting on my clothes, Kristen is already out of the bathroom with hair and makeup done, putting on her clothes. When she's finished she sighs and starts speaking.

"So, did you have fun at the party?"

"Um yeah it was okay."

"Well it looks like it went a little better than 'okay' for you." She says with a smirk.

"What do you mean?" I couldn't look at her, my cheeks were on fire.

"Oh please, don't play dumb. I saw you with that guy."

I grab my bag and my keys and walk out the door. I didn't really want to talk about this right now.

"C'mon Tori. Tell me what happened." She says catching up with me then giving me puppy dog eyes.

When we get to the car. I get in, buckle my seatbelt and sit there debating on whether or not I should just tell Kris everything. Including the dream.

So I decide to just tell her about the party. As we talk she asks me numerous questions. Do you like him, what did he say to you, what did you say to him, etc. But then she asked me one question I didn't expect.

"What about Louis?"

I had completely forgotten about my date with him tonight. I didn't know how to answer this question.

"Um....I don't know. I mean its not like everything changes just because of him. I'm still gonna go on my date with Louis and I'm not gonna take Harry into consideration. Like I said, I'll probably never see him again."

"Okay, but T, that was a college party. Everyone that goes to Richmond was there. Your bound to see him one day."

"Well, I doubt that'll be today. And I'm sure I'm just another girl to him." I say, starting the car and pulling out of the driveway.

"What, you think he's a player?"

"That's what Steven told me."

"Really? What else did he say?"

"That people are afraid of Harry and his group of friends and he's not sure if its because of their tattoos or something worse." I say as I park the car and get out.

"Hmm.....maybe he's right. I mean I know I'm wrong for judging him because I don't know him, but Harry seems like someone you should avoid."

"Thats what Steven said."

By now, Kris and I are walking into History. I go to sit in my regular seat next to Louis. He stands up and hugs me before we sit down. We talk about where were going to dinner tonight, both of us agreeing on going to Applebee's.

I turn my head around to look at Kristen. I thought I heard her call my name, but she's talking to one of her friends. As I go to turn my attention back to Lou, my eyes go wide as something catches them.

Chocolate brown curls. His back was turned to me as he talked to a guy with blonde hair and blue eyes that kept looking my way. Then he turned around, his breathtaking green eyes finding mine. One corner of his mouth coming up into a smirk. I quickly turned around in my seat and faced forward, the teacher walking in seconds later getting everyones attention.

When the hell did he get here!? I don't remember seeing him in this class. Louis looked at me with a worried expression.

"Are you okay?" He whispered, concern dripping from his voice.

"Oh i'm fine." I say with a reassuring smile.

I couldn't pay attention to one word that came out of the History teachers mouth. I could feel his eyes on me. I then realized something. Why was I acting so afraid, so traumatized? I'm usually not like this. I used to be so strong and confident. Well that is until Ryan. It's about time I got that back and stop being so helpless.

When we were dismissed from class I walked out with my books and Kris rushes up to me.

"When did he get in our class?" She asked as shocked as I was.

"I have no idea." I say, more calmly.

"Why are you so calm? I would have expected you to be as shocked as me, if not more."

"Thats the point. I need to learn to be more confident and strong the way I used to be." This making a proud smile appear on her face.

"Hey Victoria!" I turn to see Harry making his way over to us.

Kristen looks at me as if asking me if I want her to stay.

"Go ahead. I'll be fine." I say and watch as she walks away.

When he's standing infront of me, he puts out his hand, wanting me to shake it, his gesture surprising me.

When I take it he says "Sorry you weren't able to get my name at the party. I'm Harry."

"I know." I smile up at him.

"When I saw you looking at me, I half expected you to come over and say something, but you turned around like you were afraid." He had a small frown on his face.

"I wasn't afraid, just shocked. When did you start taking this class?"

"Today. I got kicked out of geography for cussing out the teacher. But he deserved it, he's such a dick."

I laugh at this. "So why did you stop me? I'm gonna be late for class."

"I wanna take you out tonight."

"Sorry, I'm busy." I turn to walk away, but he grabs my wrist pulling me back and into his chest.

"Well what about tomorrow." He said his voice deeper than it was before.

Should I say yes? Kris and Steven told me to stay away from him, but to be honest, I don't want to. I want to get to know him. I'm sure there's more to him than his tattoos and 'scary' exterior. "Okay." I finally give in.

"I'll pick you up around 6:00." He leaned down and whispered into my ear. "Where something sexy." He then walked off in the other direction, leaving me shocked for the thousandth time since I've known him. I can't help but think I just made a wrong decision.
