The Art Of Falling In Love «Harry Styles AU»

One

Catherine grew fondly of wearing skater's skirts.She reckoned that Luke Hemmings,her crush, would notice-if not compliment her that way.Harry knew how much Catherine hopelessly impresses Luke despite the vocal feelings of Luke to Cara Martin.

"Cath,I know how much you want to impress Luke,but Skater's Skirt is not the answer!"exclaimed Harry,her childhood bestfriend,while Catherine looks at her reflection in the mirror of her room.She surprisingly wore a brown skater's skirt today although retaining her long sleeves style,this time tucked in.

Before classes,Harry always meets,and sometimes wakes Catherine up for school (if she oversleeps) and stays with her for a while even after classes.

"Harry,this is what Cara wears on a daily basis,"Catherine shot back.
"Well then,why don't you impress him by just being you?"asked Harry.

"I'm not impressive by being me,no shit Sherlock."Catherine said as she grabbed her bag and pulled Harry with her.

She intertwined her fingers with him as they walk to school.She always does that,that he got used to it.

A lot of people used to think that they were a couple -a cute couple it is.Catherine's height falling on Harry's shoulder,her black hair mixed well with Harry's brunette,her eyes,blue like the ocean and his,green as the nature.They swat all the thoughts people have among them but they just won't go sometimes.

As they reach the school,one student started yelling how cute they look together which the both of them laughed off.

"First class,where we at?"Catherine asked Harry.
"Hm,"Harry mumbled as he took their schedule out,"We're gonna deal with some molten rocks and lavas today!"
"Not Geothermic Science!"exclaimed Catherine."Hey,it's not that bad when you actually pay attention to it!Do me a favor and for once do not look at Luke and listen.You'll realize how fun Geothermic Science is!"Harry whispered as Catherine mimicked him."Not looking at him is inevitable,"Said Catherine,"He's just so gorgeous!""So gorgeous,you're literally drooling!"snickered Harry."Not to mention,I actually wiped it off for you!"

"Having a 'couple-quarrel' aye?!"teased Cara Martin,Catherine's mortal enemy to date,as they realized that they have finally arrived in their room.The grey walls decorated with everything related to Science as the white marble floor paired up with the walls,one desk for one student arrangement-about thirty two of them.

Some laughed along at her comment-including Luke who was situated near Cara,making his damn move.Catherine let go of Harry's hand immediately and situated herself at Reese's back,so near she practically dragged Harry's whole existence (by his collar) to sit beside her.

As the bell rang,their teacher Professor Cowell,came trudging in commanding them to bring out a paper,a pen and their book on page three hundred-eighty seven to be exact.
Catherine already assumed how boring this class would go as she lazily followed the instructions.
"Cath,do you have any-?"Harry asked Catherine nearly inaudible.
She knew the drill,so she didn't need for him to finish.Catherine took out one of her pens from her pencil case and handed it to him.

Catherine almost planned on sleeping the whole period out until-
The boy in front of him turned around swiftly,meeting his blue eyes to her's.
"Um,Anthers,right?Would you mind if I borrow a pen?"Luke,for the first time,spoke and asked Catherine.
Catherine smiled sweetly,handing him a pen,but she knew deep inside that she's having fireworks all over her.
"Thanks,"He said and winked at her,turning in front.

She silently squealed to Harry,"Did you see?!"
"Cath,I'm like inches away from you,of course I did.Good work though,kitten."Harry
smiled at her.Despite his deep annoyance at Catherine being nearly obsessed with Luke,he always has a soft spot on her.
"Thanks Haz,"Catherine mumbled as she started to have energy to pay attention.

As the period went on,Catherine was surprised that she actually learned something,it's not that she actually fails her subjects,she,in fact,aces them.
The bell rang,at last,signaling the students to go for lunch.Catherine fixed all of her stuff up until she felt a light tap of her shoulder.She spun around,seeing Luke.
"Yeah,thanks for the pen,Anthers,"He said and smiled.Catherine went on saying;"Anytime Hemmings."

Luke trudged done with his friends as he made a last look at Catherine,smiling.
Catherine continued smiling too,as if having a daydream,until,someone interrupted.
"Really Cath?"Harry ruined her thoughts,"'Anytime Hemmings?'That's so lame he's gonna comeback to you like a freaking charity,You'll see.You will subconsciously donate to the less fortunate,like charities do."

"Honestly,he-devil.Do you really have to ruin a perfect daydream?"Catherine spatted."For you?I always have to."Harry shot back,sarcastically.

Catherine and Harry then went into the cafeteria to grab their lunch,sitting on their usual table.As they pass by Luke's table,some of his friends,including Michael Clifford,Calum Hood,Ashton Irwin and Niall Horan,put up a little smirk at Catherine and Harry's directions,later on shifting it to Luke's.

Catherine felt her stomach twist as she saw their look at the corner of her eyes-she's madly hoping for something magical.
