Staying With The Higgins Boys

Chapter Twenty-Four

Ariels POV

i sat there in shock as Skye left the room, watching her leave. 'you're a waste of space' ran through my head and i let the tears flow sobbing into my duvet. I was just trying to protect her? i thought i could deal with it myself, not get her involved. I just wanted to protect my older sister like she did for me but i couldn't, she was right i just screwed things up. I sobbed harder into the pillows when suddenly i felt a hand on my shoulder. I jumped up

'Skye?!' i squinted blinking my tears away The person in front of me shook their head and bit there lip

'Nope, Harry' he smiled weakly, his green eyes full of sadness. I manged a small smile

'Why are you here?' i asked confused He stared at me for what seemed like eternity before pulling me into his arms. 'Sorry you get treated like this' He whispered into my hair, avoiding my question. I pushed him away quickly

'Skye has every right to be angry with me!' i practically shouted defending my sister. He looked shocked and i softened slightly

'I thought you where as well? Why are you here?' i asked again He pulled my chin up and i looked at him before he kised me. I pulled back slightly dizzy and breathless

'What was that for?' i asked confused

'I don't know' he smirked 'Do i really need a reason?'

'Yes!' i said shocked ' You're not my boyfriend, i'm not just some worthless whore that are you are used to' i spat standing up and moving away from him

'hey hey i never called you that!' he said shocked

'Just stay away from me Harry' i mumbled before leaving the out of the room. i was just too fucked up right now to even think about all this Harry shit, i couldn't keep up with him. I'd lost mum and dad i couldn't bare loosing Skye over something so stupid. I ran downstairs and into the kitchen where Josh was sitting

'Woah Ariel you look like shit' he gasped

'where's Skye' i asked frantically He just shrugged

' i dunno' I ran out of the room and into the lounge where i saw Ben sitting He looked up at me concern covering my face

'Hey Ariel are you ok-' he began but i cut him off

'Save it' i said rolling my eyes 'have you seen Skye?' i asked nervously

'i think i saw her go down the hallway to the old music room at the end?' he said nervously. I took off running until i heard a sound from the music room. Music was blaring through the door. I opened it slowly and sure enough a blonde girl had her back to me. The music was practically deafening and i was about to speak up when Skye began to me. She began dance, her back still away from me and i felt tears pour down my face. Me and Skye always used to dance until our parents told us to give it up, i told Skye she shouldn't she was too talented but she just shook her head and i hadn't seen her dance since forever ago, but now she looked so dainty and perfect moving across the room. I stood there watching her in awe untill the music stopped. She turned around and faced me, she jumped back shocked.

'I'm sorry Skye, i'm so so sorry' i whispered. Her face softened and she walked over to me nervously

'I'm sorry too' she smiled tears escaping her eyes and i pulled her into a hug. After a few minutes we pulled away

'I'm gonna go to sleep now' i whispered. She nodded at me and i left the room and made my way upstairs. I changed quickly into shorts and a tshirt and laid in bed. I layed there for what seemed like hours but Skye never came. The bed felt so empty and i couldn't keep my thoughts from drifting to my parents. I let tears roll out into my mouth and across my cheeks. I pushed myself out of bed knowing exactly where i was going, i need a distraction. I walked along the corridor until i came to Harry's room. I pushed open the door hesitantly

'Harry are you awake?' i whispered, my voice cracking giving away i was crying.

'Come here' i herd him whisper back. I climbed into his bed and he threw an arm around my waist and i cried into him. I let everything out.

'It's okay' he hushed me.

'Sing for me?' i whispered, i wasn't quite sure why but it was the only thing i could think of that would calm me down right now.

'You think I'm pretty without any make-up on' He began, making me giggle at the choice of words You think I'm funny when I tell the punch line wrong I know you get me, so I let my walls come down, down

Before you met me, I was alright But things were kinda heavy, you brought me to life Now every February you'll be my Valentine, Valentine

Let's go all the way tonight No regrets, just love We can dance until we die You and I, we'll be young forever' he paused

I sighed relaxing into him and the tears came to a stop.

'You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream The way you turn me on, I can't sleep Let's runaway and don't ever look back Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me Just one touch, now baby I believe This is real, so take a chance And don't ever look back, don't ever look back

We drove to Cali and got drunk on the beach Got a motel and built a fort out of sheets I finally found you, my missing puzzle piece I'm complete

Let's go all the way tonight No regrets, just love We can dance until we die You and I, we'll be young forever

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream The way you turn me on, I can't sleep Let's runaway and don't ever look back Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me Just one touch, now baby I believe This is real, so take a chance And don't ever look back, don't ever look back

I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans Be your teenage dream tonight Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans Be your teenage dream tonight

You make me feel like I'm living a teenage dream The way you turn me on, I can't sleep Let's runaway and don't ever look back Don't ever look back

My heart stops when you look at me Just one touch, now baby I believe This is real, so take a chance And don't ever look back, don't ever look back

I'ma get your heart racing in my skin-tight jeans Be your teenage dream tonight Let you put your hands on me in my skin-tight jeans Be your teenage dream tonight' He finished trailing off into a whisper. I fell a sleep the second his voice stopped.
