Save Me ~ A Harry Styles Fan-Fic ~

Chapter 5

> Kaitlin's POV <

Soon the rest of the lads woke up, taking away the awkwardness of the situation of Harry and I.

"So what do you want to do?" Zayn asked while stifling a yawn.

Everyone looked tired and groggy when Louis perked up and said, "Let's go to the park again and bribe kids with candy!"

"Hell yeah!" I yelled, giving the Doncaster boy a high five.

"I'm in," Niall grinned.

"Why not?" Harry shrugged.

"Sounds alright," Zayn smiled.

All eyes suddenly turned to Liam. "Leeyum!" I whined, "Pwease?"

All the boys were making their best puppy faces as Liam closed his eyes and rubbed the bridge of his nose. "I can't believe I'm doing this..."

Everyone erupted in into cheers. "All we need is a shit load of candy and a fishing pole," I muttered.

____________________

We were at the park, with tons and tons of delicious candy. Chocolate candy, fruity candy. Hard candy, gummy candy. Sour candy, sweet candy. Everything.

I even had a toy fishing rod. Time for some serious fun.

"Let's make this interesting," I began, "Let's split up into 2 teams. Winners get all leftover candy, losers get nothing."

"Fine, but Louis and Kaitlin are not on the same team," Liam protested.

Louis pouted, "You're no fun."

"Each kid is worth 1 point," Harry added on.

"Parents worth 3," I grinned evilly.

Louis and I chose our teams, being the most devious, we were team captains.

"Liam," Louis said.

"Niall," I called confidently.

Now if Louis would just choose Harry...

"Zayn."

Damn you, Tomlinson. Damn you.

I huffed as Harry grinned cheekily and stood next to me.

"Ready... Go!" Someone yelled as we raced around the park looking for the nearest child to scare.

____________________

Niall, Harry, and I looked around the park, for our next victim. So far we were in the lead, 4 to 3.

We pretty much only had to get a little kid to take candy from us, a frightened expression, or a parent to yell and threaten us for 3 points.

Aren't we such nice people?

I bet Louis was regretting the fact he chose Liam, he did nothing because he claims it feels "naughty" to scare little kids and teach them bad morals to take candy from strangers.

Psh. Who cared about morals anymore?

I was the top of the playground, dangling a piece of candy from my rod. "Here little kiddies! Come to me!"

I heard a chuckle from someone behind me. I spun around to see Harry.

"What?"

"You act as if your their master," he laughed.

I did a perfect bitch please hair toss and replied with, "I am."

I felt a tug on my line and looked down to see a little boy running off with my skittles. "Damn you, little monsters! 5 points for Team Badass!" I yelled.

Yes we called ourselves Team Badass. Louis' team were the Savage Unicorns. I bet little kids just loved the sound of that.

"You know, I really don't pity you."

I glared daggers at Harry, "That's what they all say."

"I really don't."

"Sure," I rolled my eyes, "To you I'm just some helpless, tortured, demented girl who's mother has cancer. So don't even give me that 'I don't pity you' shit, because I'm used to it."

I didn't realize how close he was standing to me. I was definitely shorter than him, because he was looking down and I was tilting my head up to look at each other in the eyes.

"To me, you're a strong, amazing, hilarious, devious, clever, and beautiful girl. So don't give me that 'I know you don't really like me and you pity me' shit, because I don't pity you and I do like you. You. Are. Amazing." I was screaming like the fangirl I was on the inside, 'cos c'mon. It's Harry Styles.

"I'm sorry, but if you haven't noticed before, I'm not that girl every guy falls for. I'm not that girl everyone loves. I'm not the girl who enjoys sappy love stories, so don't be expecting one from me."

Okay, holy llamas. I didn't notice until now. He was very close to me. Like we weren't even an inch apart. Part of me wanted to close that gap between us and just smash our lips together, but I also wanted to slap him across his face for not minding personal space. It's like he's never heard of the word.

"Hey guys, I got another littl-" I turned to look at the leprechaun that had walked up and mouthed "thank you" to him. Niall saved me from a very awkward situation.

He chuckled and carried on with saying, "I got another point. And Louis declares a war of candy."

I raised an eyebrow.

"In other words, he's pissed because he knows he's losing all the candy. To a girl."

"Well, let's give him what he wants. A war of the teams!" I yelled dramatically.

_______________________

Team Badass walked down to the field to meet with the Savage Unicorns and discuss the "war".

Louis stood, his arms crossed over his chest, with Liam and Zayn standing behind him.

"What?" I asked.

"I declare war. It isn't fair you're racking up more points than me! You're a girl!"

"And I kick ass," I winked at him daringly, earning laughter from the rest of the lads.

He rolled his eyes as we walked back to the playground.

________________________

We decided that who ever got the most points in under 10 minutes would win. And we couldn't leave the playground. And the kids had to accept our candy.

3 minutes in and we had 4 more points. The Savage Unicorns only had 1 more.

I saw a little girl on the swings, looking lonely. I walked up to her and whispered "You want some candy?"

She looked at me frightened, "um- I- I"

"I'll give you 3 peices." Looking into her scared eyes and noticed they were almost exactly the same dark blue color as mine. What a coincidence.

"What are doing with my daughter?" A gruff voice asked from behind me. A gruff voice that sounded almost a little too familiar.

I turned to look into the same blue eyes. The blue eyes I had inherited. What the actual fuck was going on?

"Wha- Dad?"
