I watched as she walked past me, she was so perfect. her brown straight hair, its originally curly but she always does her hair before school to fit in, the way it flows in the wind as she passes by me. will she ever notice me? I ask myself, probably not. "harry! why do you even bother she's never gunna go for you.. look at yourself!" sarah said from my side, ouch that hurts but I know she means well. every guy fawns over Aurora, shes not the head cheer leader but shes the hottest.

"you don't even know what you're talking about sarah!" I say, well she doesn't, I know aurora. she use to be my best friend but when we got to middle school she forgot about me. she became popular and I became even more dorky and awkward. I wish I could speak to her again.

"harry you are honesty mental if you think she will ever go out with a guy like you." sarah says to me, I don't answer and I know she feels bad cause she knows now that she did hurt me. "come on we have to study" she says dragging me down the hall. We get to the school parking lot and climb in my car. we go back to my house where my mom is anxiously waiting. "so got any plans Friday, it is the last day of school!" my mom asks to excited. she has asked me everyday after school and the answer is always no!

"no mom im a loser remember" I say on my way up the stairs to my room to study. we sit at my desk and drop our books. we have finals coming up and I need a good grade, well I always do. we go over the material until it gets late.

"its getting late I should go home" she says with a yawn

"no just stay here, its already midnight and you shouldn't be walking around at this time." I tell sarah, she is my best friends now has been since aurora abandoned me.

"fine I will call my mom" she signs and tries not to smile at me. her mom lets her which is no shocker, they love me. I go to the bathroom and shower and change. I slip on a white tshirt and pajama pants. I walk into my room and find sarah has changed already. "wow!" she says her jaw practically on the floor.

"what?" I ask her but she just stands there with a shocked expression.

"what happened to the gel in your hair?" she finally speaks

"I showered?" I say curiously.

"glasses?" she asked

"I don't always need them" I tell her

"what about those muscles!" she says lifting up my shirt revealing my six pack.

"I work out on weekends?" I pull away from her making her let go of my shirt.

"I dare say this but if you go to school looking like this you might actually get a chance to talk to her" my eyes widen as sarah says this. she doesn't like aurora and I know why. When they were 8 before I moved here they were best friends. one day though her and aurora got into a fight. These girls told aurora that sarah was calling her fat but she wasn't and aurora believed them and never spoke to sarah again. its sad really.

"what do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Harold Edward Styles you are hot!" she finally admits but I know she means nothing by it, im not her type, like at all. we end up falling asleep but I cant help but think if she is right. maybe if I dress like this aurora will love me.....

the next day we got to school and I see her, aurora with all of her "friends" and the football players.school is almost over but I cant help but listen to what they say while I walk past.

"hey so niall you going to be in football?" the captian asked the only boy who didn't have a jersey on.

"you would like that jake wouldn't you? I know you need more players but no." niall just tells him and walks away.

"that's to bad, hed be cute as a football player! right aurora!" another cheerleader says while hugging jake, I think her name is emma?.

"emma stop!" aurora says blushing "you know I like a guy with a football uniform!" she says swating at emma playfully. I am not sure why but I feel jealous all of a sudden. I also want to join football more then ever now!

"ill join!" I yell running over to them shocking everyone especially myself. I look back at sarah who's jaw is basically on the floor. 'sorry' I mouth to her.

"what?!" jake says laughing and everyone follows his lead except aurora. she would never laugh at anyone's expense but her own.

"harry I don't think that is a good idea..... you'll get hurt!" aurora says making me look at her. she looks scared for me.

"no let him! styles if you think you have it in you to be on our team prove it!" jake says shoving me. aurora steps in between us.

"leave him alone!" she yells at jake. and jake backs off and seems tobe walking away. she steps aside and looks at me. "what were you thinking you cant join football!" she scolds me. what is she my mother? I then see jake turn around and come towards me. it doesn't process until its too late. I feel his fist collide with my face making me fall to the ground. I see blood on the floor. "what the hell!" aurora screams so loud I am scared. "go now before I kick your ass!" she threatens. im not sure why she cares this is the most shes talked to me in years.

I see sarah run to me. aurora and her put my arms around there shoulders and bring me to my car."what are you doing?" sarah asks aurora when she takes my keys.

"im bringing him home, its last hour and that's my foods class I can miss it!" she reassures sarah before starting it.

"but I cant I have a test" she tells aurora

"harry needs help and I can take care of him just go to school ive got it!" she tells sarah in a soothing manner. she drives me home but before we get there I fall asleep. I just cant believe its taken me sitting in the back of my car bleeding for her to finally go to my house with me, or even talk to me.
