In Too Deep *A Harry Styles Love Story*

Chapter 2- How Could She?

Chapter 2

Megan's POV

When I first saw Izzy with the new boy, I admit I did gasp. I can't believe she was hanging around him. And now there arms are hooked together, like there a couple. It's really not fair. I noticed the new boy earlier today. He was in my first class with me. We even sit next to each other. I am not going to lie but I'm a little pissed off that he didn't even recognize me. Like seriously, who the fuck does he think he is? Anyways, while we were walking to lunch I noticed how he kept staring at Izzy, and even followed us to the table, which of course she didn't mind. But I fucking mind! "Izzy can I talk to you" I ask my best friend. "Sure, I'll be right back Harry ok" she says. "Sure, take your time" he says to her. I drag my best friend to the lunch line. "What is wrong with you" I ask her. "Nothing, why" she asks me. "You're all over the new kid" I say to her. "And it's quite obvious he likes you" I huff. "So, what if I like him too" she says. She did not just say that. "Wait you like him" I say, sadly. "Yes as a matter of fact I do" she says. Maybe I should of told her about me liking him first, but I didn't. It was obvious that he didn't like me anyway. "Oh, ok" was all I said. I got my lunch and headed back to the table. Izzy sat down next to him and they smiled at each other, and blushed when their hands touched. I couldn't take any more so I got up and left. I ended up going to the library where most of the geeks hang out. Why couldn't he look at me the way he looked at Izzy? Why did I care so much? I just don't understand why guys go after Izzy and not me; I mean I dress much nicer than she does. And why wasn't the new kid wearing his uniform!? I was going to get my answers, and soon!

Isabella's POV

I was so busy talking to Harry that I hadn't even noticed that my best friend had run off. I looked at Harry who just shrugged his shoulders, meaning he noticed she was gone too. When Meg and I were talking I noticed that when I said that I liked Harry her voice went flat, and her face kind of sunk. I hope she doesn't like him too. "Did you see where she went" I asked Harry. "No I'm sorry, I wasn't really paying attention" he says to me. Great now I have to go find her. Groaning I get up and search the toilets, and the classrooms. When I get to the gym I notice that Louis and Zayn are there smoking a cigarette. I foolishly make my way over to them. "Have you guys seen Meg" I ask them. "No" Zayn says ogling me like I'm a piece of meat. "What about you Louis" I ask him. "Nope haven't seen her" he says coolly. These boys are trouble and I know I need to leave but I have a feeling that they have seen Meg, so I stay. "Are you sure you haven't seen her Zayn, I mean you two are pretty close right" I ask him, tilting my head to the side. "No, I don't know where she is Izzy, jeez just go away" he says to me, obviously getting angry. "Yeah leave! We don't want you to get in trouble now do we" Louis says sneering at me. Great not only did I piss these two boys off, but I still haven't found Meg! "Fine I-I'll leave" I said, backing out of the gym. "Now why would we want that" a voice says behind me. I turn around and there's Liam standing by the door way blocking my escape route. Liam is not the person I wanted to see today. "Who were you looking for again" Liam asks me. "M-Meg" I stutter. "I'm looking for Meg" I say. "Right, well do you see Meg, here in the gym" Liam asks me. "W-well no, but I thought I'd look here first, since she hangs out with you guys" I say. "Yeah well you came at the wrong time love" Liam growls. "Oh and why's that" I snap at him, immediately regretting it. "Don't sass me Izzy" Liam says, jumping at me. Suddenly the gym door opens and in walks Harry. Thank god! "What's going on here" he asks. "Nothing" Liam says, glaring at Harry. Harry looks from me to the three boys crowding around me. "It doesn't look like nothing" he says, "how about you let my girl- uh friend go" he says. Did he really almost say girlfriend. "And if we don't" Louis asks sneering. "You'll be sorry" Harry says, stepping closer. "Oh really" Liam says grabbing my waist. "And if I were to do this" he asks, suddenly grabbing me and pressing his lips to mine. He smelled like smoke, and his lips tasted like it too, suddenly I feel Liam's lips leave mine. I open my eyes to see Harry on top of him throwing punch after punch. Liam's nose is already broken and I can see the blood dripping onto the floor. I am awoken from thoughts by a scream. "HARRY STOP" I scream, pulling at his shirt. He is now kicking Liam in the side of the ribs, his green eyes now darker than they were before.

Harry's POV

"HARRY STOP" I heard Izzy scream at me. I turned to look at her, and noticed she was crying. I looked down at Liam ready to kick him again, but didn't. "Get up" I barked. As Liam tried to stand up, the other two came over to help him. "Don't you ever touch her again, you got me" I shouted at Liam. "Yeah, I got you" Liam said sneering at me. "Just watch your back Styles" Liam said, being carried out of the gym by his two friends. Did I not just beat the shit out of this asshole? "What was that" I half yelled at him. "You heard me! You just made a huge mistake' he said. And with that the door to the gym shut, leaving me with Izzy who was kneeling on the gym floor crying.

I ran up to her and went to touch her shoulder. She flinched at the sight of me trying to help her. "I'm so sorry" I say to her. "I didn't mean for it to get out of hand, I swear" I say, trying to make her look up at me. She takes a deep breath and wipes her eyes, and looks at me. "You shouldn't have done that Harry" she says. "They're going to come after you" she continues. "I'll be fine" I say to her, putting my hand out for her to take. "It doesn't matter if you can fight back or not" she says to me. "They're not the guys to fuck with" she says, putting her hand over her mouth. I'm guessing that's the first time she has ever sworn before? "I don't care Izzy" I say. "As long as I'm with you everything will be ok" I mutter, hoping she didn't hear me. But of course she did. "What was that" she asked me, tilting her head. "Nothing" I say smiling at her. "Mhm sure" she says to me, smiling. "Can we go look for your friend Meg now" I ask her, giving her my hand once again. "Yeah sure" she says, taking my offer.

As our skin touches I feel the most invigorating feeling in my stomach and my chest. Something I have never ever felt in my whole nineteen years of life. I looked at Izzy, and noticed that her eyes were wide. Did she feel the same way I felt? I felt her hand fall from mine the instant she got up. The warmth and the feeling I had before left completely. I felt empty once again, and I totally hated that feeling. "Forget it Harry" my voice in my head said. "She will never go for you; you're just like those boys you beat up. And you know it" it continued. I jumped when I heard Izzy's voice beside me. "What" I ask her, grinning slightly. "I was asking you if you would check the other classrooms on the second floor while I check the library" she said to me. "Oh right, yeah. I could do that" I said to her. "Alright cool, I will meet you down here in the library if you don't find her ok" she says to me. "Alright, yeah" I say smiling at her. I make my way up to the second floor, and look in the first classroom. "Nope not here" I say to myself. I look in the other classrooms, and shrug my shoulders as I make my way down to the library.

As I near the library I hear Izzy and Meg's voices. It sounds like they're fighting. Then I hear a loud SLAP, and I run around the corner in time to see Izzy clutching her cheek. "What the fuck is wrong with you" I yell at Meg. "She deserved it" she smirks at me. "Why would she deserve to be slapped" I yell at her, frustration and anger heating up in me again. Now I would never fight a girl, but this girl is pissing me off! "She stole you from me" Meg yells back at me. Wait what? "First of all, I don't even know you" I snap at her, "And second of all, I wouldn't ever date you" I continue. As I let the words fall out of my mouth I notice her face flush and her eyes dart downward. "Why wouldn't you want to date me" she asks suddenly. "Because you're not my type" I say to her truthfully. "Oh so your type consists of girls who are brainy than" she asks me, her eyes starting to water. "Well yeah" I say to her. My anger and frustration now gone. "Right, how could I have been so blind" she says and turns on heel to walk away. "One more thing, where is your uniform" she asks me. "I don't have one yet" I tell her. "Oh" was all she said than she was gone. I turned to look at Izzy who was once again crying. "Are you ok" I ask her. She nods at me and tries to smile. "I have no idea what happened" she says. "Can you tell me what exactly happened" I ask her. She nods her head and we begin to walk out of school as she starts telling me what happened.
