Blue {h.s}

E l e v e n

          The morning was hectic the next day when everyone met for breakfast. I wanted to assume everything was fine and tensions had settled some but I wasn't blind. I could see the angry glares she gave Sebastian whenever he pushed her (he insisted they were accidents) and I even saw Niall tap her bum a few times which added more confusion to the already crazy situation.

          It was about Six O' Clock and mom was gone out with some of her friends that she hadn't seen in months. I had a missed call from my dad that I didn't intend on returning and Audriana had left soon after she ate with an awful attitude still. I didn't know where my brother was and I honestly didn't care.

          Harry had told me we were hanging out today and since breakfast was out, I'd assumed we were going for lunch or dinner. I didn't even know who he was when he texted me since someone had saved his name to 'Daddy' in my phone. I had no time to rename it since he informed me I had only 30 minutes to get ready.

          I wore a black crop top that Audriana had let me keep, ripped boyfriend jeans, and my white Adidas with black stripes with a wing on the eye and spent 5 minutes obsessing on a red pimple on my cheek but just hoped he wouldn't notice. My hair was up in a half bun that could have been cuter had my mom helped but she wasn't here and she would go mad if she knew about Harry and I.

          I paced around my room for minutes with nothing to do and in excitement with an obvious hint of nervousness. I ran down the stairs the minute I heard him ring my bell but slowed my pace at the door and calmed my breathing to not look as desperate as I was. I opened it to see him dressed vibrant but casual in Harry clothing terms. He adorned his big head with a black snap back that I immediately turned backwards as we walked to his car.

          I expected to be in front of a restaurant or even an old fashioned diner since Harry's style was vintage but new, but I instead was stood in front of a Dave & Busters. He had a wide smile on his face that eventually made me laugh, too. I should have known we'd be at some silly place like this.

          "I can't believe we're here," I walked closer to him as we neared the street.

          "I love this place! Plus, Mm' wanna get all my inner kid out before graduatio- woah!" He grabbed my hand as a car drove past us at a high speed and pulled me even closer to him, our sides pressed along with our hands.

          Our bodies were pressed tightly together and I could feel the heat of his chest against my back. I peered back at him with my hair still in my face from the wind. His eyes found mine with a blank expression as his hand came to my eyes and cheeks to clear my face.

          "My hero," I joked as my hand found his. He tightly secured mine in his as we continued to the building.

          "Always," his tone sounded a bit sarcastic and he had a light smirk to his lips as he opened the door for me to enter. Maybe, I was hearing things.

          The building was packed with small children and pre-teens running around playing huge versions of hand-held games. Harry's smile immediately got bigger as we sat down and began ordering. He recommended dishes for us to try and talked about new games he couldn't wait to play.

          I learned in that moment Harry was a huge baby inside of a scary looking man. He ate fast so we could go and even resorted to taking pieces of food off my plate. My attempts to stop him and our constant laughing attracted stares but Harry liked the attention he got, I could tell.

          "Give me my kabob back!" I demanded while giggling and reaching across the table to get it back.

          "No, it looks good," he took a bite but made a sour face after a bit of chewing. "It's got pineapple," he spoke in disgust while still chewing the food in his mouth.
