Chapter 10 - Bad Memories

Stephie's POV

"I'm sorry." He immediately snapped.

"It's.. okay." I gulped and blinked twice, trying to blink away the tears that already started to blur my vision.

This afternoon's experience was nothing more than a nightmare. But my life is just a nightmare. Nothing fucking else.

"Steph?" Stop talking to me.

My voice will fucking crack if I speak. I know.

"Yeah?" I tried to speak without cracking up.

He took my ice cream cup from my and threw it in the dustbin nearby along with his'.

By the time he came back, I came back to reality.

"Let's go." He said and offered me his hand to help me get up.

"Yeah."

He didn't leave my hand, instead he intertwined our fingers together and I couldn't help but smile at that, my heart grew fonder of him every second.

We started walking again in silence.

"Harry?"

"Hmm?"

"Where are we going?" I asked.

"Are you cold?" He didn't answer my question.

"I.. yeah." I admitted.

"We're going to my house then. You can change there."

"Only if you're fine with it." He added.

"I guess."

"Hmm?" I really like it when he hummed.

"I'll come along. This shit doesn't look pretty." I said and he lightly laughed.

"You're mood changes so quickly." He said.

"No.. it doesn't. Does it?" I wasn't sure about this lately. It's always different with him.

"Yes. It does." He laughed. He laughed too muh.

"Hmph." I huffed.

"Don't your parents live with you?" I asked.

"Yeah. Why?"

"Isn't it too late to bring me along? Won't your parents be bothered?" I asked.

"They aren't at home now."

"Oh." I wanted to ask him why they weren't here but didn't. He'll think I am a hell of a creep.

"They're on a business trip." He answered my thoughts like he could read my mind. Maybe he could. Who knows?

"You have no siblings?" This is my turn for the investigation.

"I have a sis but she's currently at university."

"This is my house!" He spoke a little too loudly, leaving my hand and throwing both of his' in the air towards the large house.

"Please get me in first.. I'm cold." I finally admit.

"Finally!" He said and rolled his eyes.

"Come along." He said, opening the door to a big house, a really big house.

"Woah! You can get lost in here!" I said, rotating my neck every now and then to look at the huge house.

"In here babe." He said, opening a door in his large hallway.
