Friendzone (Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 4: The Park

The last class didn't went well, because Angel was there and she's busy flirting with Harry in the whole time. So once the bell rung, I quickly gathered all of my things and walk out of the classroom without taking a glance to Harry. Usually, he and I would walk out of the classroom together, while making some jokes about our friends. But now that Angel came to picture, I just wanna stay away from him as far as possible.
As I'm walking through the hall, I heard my name was being called from behind. So I turned around, and sure enough, Harry's jogging figure came to view.
"Where are you going?" He asked as we started walking together.
"Home" I bluntly reply.
"Well let's go to the park first!"
The park.
I forgot we always go there after school. It's been 3 days, I think, when we last time visited there, because he was too busy dating Angel.
"Why? Aren't you supposed to be with Angel and dating her? Or getting ready for your party tonight?"
My face was still blunt, making Harry's brow furrowed.
"Is that what you're angry about? Because of Angel? Heather, we've gone through this-"
I cut him off.
"No... It's because you didn't informed me about that party you're throwing."
Well, that's almost a lie. Angel was the reason why am I acting like this and also, he told her first about that damn party.
"Oh c'mon! I told you earlier! Didn't I?"
"Yeah, but you told Angel first."
He groaned.
"Heather please! Don't be like that! You're over reacting!"
I ignored him as we walk until we approached the locker hall. And just like earlier, our friends were all standing near by our locker. They gave us a confuse look as Harry didn't stop nagging me about going to that goddamn park, but I just continue to ignore him, as I opened my locker and shoved all the things I didn't needed inside.
"Look, I didn't know what's your problem, but please! I can't stand with your mood swings- woah wait..." he stop talking for a minute, while I continue to put my thing inside my locker, completely ignoring him.
"Are you in period?" And that's when I slam my locker shut and turn to face him with heated cheeks.
"Would you shut up already!" I said in gritted teeth, and I saw from the corner of my eye, all of our friends were looking at us with the same smirks on their faces.
"Oh you are! Aren't you!" He laughed. I hit his arm and try to hide my face by my hair as best as I could because of our laughing friends whose watching us.
"That explains your mood swings this morning!" He laughed again.
"If I go with you to the park? Would you shut up already?"
I yelled with bawled fist.
God this is so embarrassing!
"Sure. Sure."
After, that we bid goodbyes to our friends and started walking out of the school.
"I know how can I deal with that mood swing! Salted Caramel Ice cream!" He exclaimed. Sometimes it makes me wonder if Angel likes his childishness.

Just like he promised, he brought me a salted caramel coned ice cream at the nearest store at the park, before we went to the playground and sit on our usual spot, which are the swings. Some parents were looking at us, probably wondering what are the two 17 years old teenagers sitting on the swings, but just like always, we ignored them.
"Do you remember when I said, I'm going to take you to Paris someday?" He asked, before licking his chocolate mint ice cream. I smiled at the memory.
Of course. I would never forget that.
"Yeah... Why?" I replied.
"Well, I was thinking of bringing you there this summer, before we go for college."
I look at him with wide eyes.
"Really?" I asked in disbelief.
"Yeah."
In all of my excitement, I hug him and kiss his cheek, before thanking him. I realize what I've just done making me almost flush, but when I see it looks like nothing to him, I quickly recover.
Of course.
We we're just like this when we were a kids and I feel like going back to that time, because there's a moment that it was almost the same like this. I was twelve years old that day...

Flash back
We ordered ice cream at the nearest store at the park. Mine is a salted caramel coned ice cream, while Harry's a chocolate mint ice cream, before we go to the playground. As we were about to approach our usual spot, a soccer ball suddenly hit my face, making me lose my balance and landed on the ground with a loud tud. My ice cream was no longer in my hand, and it's now on the ground. I groaned in pain and annoyance.
"Hey watch it!!" Harry yelled, before helping me to get up from the ground.
"Are you okay?" He asked in a soft tone as he turned his gaze at me. I gave him a reassuring smile as a response. Not a moment later, a boy with brown curly hair, almost the same as Harry's, if I must say, and look like around our age, came to view. His hazel eyes were soften when he sees me.
"Sorry about the-" He started to apologize, but cut off by Harry's scoff.
"You should be." I gave Harry a glare, before turning my attention back to the boy with a grin on my face.
"No... It's okay. I underatand that it's just an accident." He smiled after that and nodded.
"Hey Brad! What's taking you so long?" Someone yelled behind, I assumed Brad, making him pick up the ball, and started running back to his group of friends.
Harry and I, ended up sharing his ice cream since mine was splattered on the ground because of the incident earlier. We were sitting on the swings, passing the ice cream to each other while having a conversation about some random places in the world.
"I want to go to the Paris someday." He stated
"Paris? Why?"
"Well, it is a romantic place, and I heard that it would be fun if you bring your 'partner' in there."
"Wow."
"Yeah wow. And also, I always wonder what would it feels like if you're on the top of the Eiffel tower while eating ice cream."
"That would be extremely amazing!!!" I chirped, making him chuckled. By this time, we finished eating the ice cream and just looking at each other's eyes.
"You know..." He stated. "I'm planning of taking you there someday with me."
"Really?" I asked with wide eyes.
"Yeah" next thing I know, he was leaning closer to my face and before I knew it, his lips brushed to mine. I pulled away from him with my mouth parted in shock.
What was that?
"Why did you do that?!" I yelled and stood up with bawled fist.
"Heather I-"
I cut him off.
"You shouldn't do that! You-...You shouldn't kiss me Harry! That's so weird!!!"
"Alright! Calm down!" He yelled too, before standing up. "Please! Just take a sit, and let me explain!" He tried calm me down, making me sigh and did what he said. He pace back and forth for a second, before he take a sit on the swing next to me again and sigh before he speaks.
"I'm sorry I did that... I just... I don't know what came to me. Please... Let's just forget about that..I'm sorry Okay?" He looked down with flushed cheeks.
I blew out a sigh.
"Alright, I forgave you." His face light up, before he reach my hand.
"Okay." He breathed.
"How about let's just forget about anything that happened today, and let's go to my mum and eat a lot of chocolate chips cookies?" He suggested, making me smile.

Ends of Flashback

I never thought that I would regret being mad at him about that kiss... And the worst thing is, I get my first kiss from my best friend, who would never love me the way I loved him.
