Multiple [h.s] - ON HOLD

Chapter 15

"Class dismissed."

The students started to clear the room one by one, eventually I was the only one left behind. Liam looked deep in thought hidden behind a bunch of papers that were on his desk. Events of that night three weeks ago played over and over in my head and I felt the need to apologise to Liam for Harry's actions. I took a deep breathe and summomed all the courage I needed and walked to his desk.

"Hi Liam," I said to him cautiously.

"May I help you Ms Crest?" He asked not looking up from his papers.

"Ms Crest?" I tried to joke.

"Do you have a question?"

"No. I..I just wanted to talk. See how you doing. You know," I said quickly.

"I will not be discussing my private life with you. Now if that's all, I have a class."

"Oh come on Liam. It's been three weeks. You aren't really be that pissed at me are you?"

"Do you need an escort?"

"What? Liam. Come on. Look at me," I paused. "Look at me!"

He finally looked up at me with a look I have never seen him in before. "What the fuck do you want from me? Do you fucking have a damn clue how you made me look in front of my family? Have you any idea how disgusted they were in me when I had to explain that whole scene? You and your petty teenage drama have ruined my relationship with my family. They wouldn't even look at me! You had a choice and you picked that douchebag. Now leave!" He shouted. "And next time you adress me with 'professor'. Show some respect."

I took a deep breathe to try calm myself down when I realised students were already in the room and gaping at Liam and I. Embarrassed, I muttered a quick 'sorry' and ran out of the room.

I drove to the residents building as quickly as possible, being fed up with the world. I drove carelessly earning honks from other drivers.

Once I got to my destination, I went to my room and noticed the door slightly ajar. I opened it further and saw Kelly sitting on my bed cross-legged and tapping at her phone.

"What happened?" She asked once she looked up at me. I immediately let out tears I wasn't aware I was holding back and went to sit next to her on the bed.

"Woah woah woah. So..what?" Kelly huffed in confusion.

"I know. It's a mouthful," I sniffed.

"So Tristan..or Liam. What's his game?"

"I don't want to know. All I know is that life was great before college."

"That will explain Harry's behaviour two days ago!" She said.

"What about Harry? Is he okay?" I asked with too much concern in my voice. He hadn't been to any of the classes we had together since that night.

"I saw him in the store the other day. We were in the same aisle and as soon as he saw me he turned around, put back the stuff he was buying and left. He looked really bad. His hair greasy and his clothes rugged."

I closed my eyes as she finished. "What?"

"I know. I didn't know what was wrong with him but now I know!"

"Let's go out tonight. Have fun and forget your boy drama. How about that?" She tried to cheer me up when she noticed my sad expression.

"Sounds good," I laughed sadly. "Just let me change."

----------------

"Another one."

I was sitting at a make shift bar at the fraternity because Kelly and I separated as soon as we walked in here

"Woahh woah are you sure?" A random person came from behind me.

"Of course!" I slurred over the loud music.

The blonde boy simply chuckled and took out his cash out the wallet he fished from his jeans. "Hold the shots there bud," he said overpaying the bartender.

"Hey! What the hell?" I protested while hitting the blonde boys arm weakly.

"Come on. We gotta get you out of here," he attempted to lift me up while I protested but looked past me and immediately drop his hands to his side and went of the opposite direction.

I was a bit taken aback by his behaviour but blamed everything on the amount of alcohol I have consumed. I called over the bartender and ordered myself another drink.

"No can do babes. You heard the blonde," he shook his head. "Why don't you go out there and dance instead?"

"What? No! I don't even know that kid! I don't even know how to dance!"

"The best I can do for you is water."

I rolled my eyes at him and went off to go do as told: Dance.

I moved carelessly to the music and kept up with the beat. I danced some more and few moments later I felt a body against me from behind. A pair of hands ended up on my hips and sway me from side to side. I foolishly giggled to myself as the person pulled me closer to him. "Looking good," he said into my ear.

I turned around to see a boy with messy dark hair and a huge grin on his face. He pulled me closer and making the gap between us nonexistent. His lips were full and pink making his glossy eyes pop. I moved my hands up to his shoulders and buried them in his thick hair.

The smoke filled room started to spin and my senses went crazy. I could still taste the caramel tequila shots on my lips as I licked them and I realized I was actually having fun tonight. No Harry, no worries.

"I could have done that for you," the boy yelled over the music.

I smirked and got up to my toes to meet his eyes. "I bet you could have."

I brushed my lips across his and felt him let out a small grunt. "Wanna get to somewhere private?"

"I'm quite comfortable here. Why do you wanna leave?" I teased.

"Really?" He leaned in closer to me. "Such a cock-tease."

"Well-"

"Louis fuck off from her!" A voice boomed out from behind me. The music stopped and people turned to stare at the person yelling.

"I said get away from her you little shit!" He was walking towards us now. I couldn't quite make out who it was because it was so dark, but that voice was familiar.

"Look man. I don't want any trouble. I'll go," Louis stuttered.

In that split second, everything happened too fast. "Too fucking late." Harry's fist connected with Louis' jaw and he staggered backwards.

"Come here!" Harry called to me with an extended hand.

"No," I said to him. "Go away!" I said childishly, the alcohol finally getting to me. Harry stepped forward and lifted me at the waist while I kicked at him to put me down. He took me up the stairs and down the corridor, finally stopping at his bedroom. He put me down on the bed and I felt myself slowly drifting to sleep as soon as I had my head hit the pillow.

"I'll be right back. I have to sort out that fuck-up," he said and left the room.

I didn't bother trying to stop him because I soon fell asleep.
