Three months later, I find myself committed to a man. The reason I say committed is because I don't know exactly what we are, we definitely aren't officially dating, but we have ties that cannot be broken by hooking up with others. Much to Harvey's dismay, it's not Harry that I'm with. It's his friend that was kind enough to drive me out to Cardiff and then get to know me over the drinks he bought at the club, Ben. 

He was a wonderful guy, and even though we were so different, we got along great. I'm sure if he didn't live 2 hours away, we'd be in an official relationship instead of just being a thing. But even though we are so far, he still insists on driving all the way here to come see me at least 3 times a week and rarely ever lets me drive to him. 

Did I mention that he was also my first kiss? I know, first kiss at age 17, pretty lame, right?

My relationship with Ben hasn't come between my friendship with Harry, though. We still text on a daily basis even if it's only for a few minutes when he has those really busy days. I haven't seen him since Cardiff just because of how hectic his schedule is, but their tour has just come to an end so I'm hoping that'll give us more time to hang out. He even said he would be in London by tonight, but unfortunately I had to reject any plans with him because I had already made plans with Ben. 

Harvey had a completely opposite view of the relationship than Harry, though. Harry had a few doubts that I still don't understand, but he is very understanding of me and Ben. Harvey on the other hand can't wait for what we have to end so that I can date Harry. I don't think that he realizes that both sides have to agree for a relationship to work and I have high doubts that Harry has any romantic interest in me. Harvey just won't have it though, and instead of spending his nights with me, I'm pretty sure he appears to Harry wherever he is, instead. He's so damn stubborn.  

The ringing of my doorbell tore my out of my thoughts. I already knew who was going to be at my door as I walked over to it and answered it to reveal the gorgeous dirty blonde, blue eyed boy. Or I guess man, considering he's 21. 

"Hey baby." He greeted me as he gave me a peck on the lips. I returned the greeting with a warm smile and pulled him into the house. 

"Is your dad home?" 

The question formed knots in my stomach they way it does whenever my dad is brought up. Ben hasn't met my father nor does he know about my horrible relationship with him, so I'm sure he's just asking so he can finally meet him. The poor guy probably thinks my dad's a good person who he needs to make a good impression with. Little does he know that everyone makes a bad impression on him no matter what they do, except for bartenders of course. He's buddy-buddy with them.

"Uh, no, he's still away on business." I lie.

"Oh, that's a shame. I would really love to meet him sometime soon." He confirms my suspicions.
