The next day

Harry’s POV

I kissed her; I fricking kissed her. Why couldn’t I  control my emotions, all I had to do was to take her out to dinner , have fun and drop her home. Why couldn’t I just stick to that!

As much as I liked kissing Selena, I knew that the kiss meant something, maybe not to her but defiantly for me. I really liked Selena so I really didn’t want to hurt her in any way.

I get out of my bed half awake and attempt to get ready for the day; I really don’t have much going on. I might go and see my mum and sister for a bit but that was it.

Part of me thought about texting Selena and asking if she could come over but I knew that part of me would only want her to come so I could kiss her again. Why couldn’t I shake off the kiss!

 I had kissed girls in the past but kissing Selena was different, it was like she had this innocence to her but at the same time she could dominate you if she wanted to.

Maybe I could mention to her to come round but obviously I would skip out wanting to kiss her.

Dammit, I think I need a cold shower...

Selene’s POV

The kiss, why did it have to be so amazing?! When I finally got into the house yesterday I was so giddy and happy even my dad could tell that I had a great night. Obviously I wasn’t going to tell him every last detail of my date with Harry. Part of me wasn’t even sure if it was right that I enjoyed it so much, but honestly if you had someone in front of you like Harry asking to kiss you, honestly would you turn him down?

Like I thought, nope!

I needed a distraction I couldn’t keep thinking about the kiss all day because if I did I would drive myself crazy.

I get out of bed and have a quick shower; maybe doing something with my dad would be fun. Oh great no I couldn’t do that, today was golf day for my dad. Every Saturday morning he and his friends went golfing. Now what was I going to do? I didn’t know what I could do to distract myself.

Like clockwork my eyes flicker towards the sound of my phone buzzing. I’m still in my towel and I tighten it so that it doesn’t fall off.

 “Hey, I was wondering, do you want to meet up today?”

Oh shoot, it’s from Harry, what should I say back? If I say yes then I will think about yesterdays kiss the whole day but if I say no he would think I’m avoiding him because of yesterdays kiss. Seriously why did I enjoy putting myself into these awkward situations?!

OK sure, should I come to yours or will you come to mine? xx

I wait patiently for Harry to reply to my message.

How about I come to yours, is your dad around? xxx

Nope, he’s gone golfing with his mates xx

Ok then I’ll try to get there for around tenish xx

OK then, I’ll see you then xx

I finish texting Harry and drop my mobile and start getting ready.

Oh god now I was beginning to get nervous again. Was this always going to happen anytime Harry and I were alone?

The door bell rang and I tried to shake off my nerves, he was here. I took a deep breath before opening the door.

Harry stood there with tortillas and a dip in his hands, what the hell?

“I came with a snack.” He grins

“Oh you really shouldn’t have.” I say as I take the food from Harry’s hand and walk towards the kitchen counter and place the food there. Harry closes the door behind him and places his coat on one of the chairs in the living room.

Maybe he brought one of my favourite snacks to lighten the mood; if that was the reason then he was doing a good job.

“I thought we could have it whilst watching a movie.” Harry suggest as he sits down.

“Wow, you really did think about all of this ?....”

The room is silent for a bit until I begin coughing and Harry turns his head towards me.

“I think we really need to talk... about us.” I nervously say. Harry nods his head and pats the chair next to him; I walk over and make sure I leave left space between us.

“What happened yesterday, I mean us kissing ... how do you feel about it?” Fingers crosses hopefully he wouldn’t say anything that would offend me.

“Well, I guess it’s obvious now that I like you Sel but I’m not ready for anything serious... like a relationship.” Harry says calmly as he narrows his head. I smile a bit as I realise that Harry just said that its oblivious that he likes me. Obviously I make sure to ignore the part where he mentions not being ready for a serious relationship.

“I love hanging out with you, I defiantly don’t want that to stop.”

 “I do too; maybe we should just see how this thing between us goes.” I say trying very hard to not saying anything that sounds like a relationship; well it wasn’t like I was even ready for one.

Harry nods generously and scratches his scalp.

“Did you like the kiss?” I ask shyly

“I did. I didn’t make you feel awkward did I?”

“No of course not, I liked it.” I say as I smile at Harry and he too smiles as well.

So far so good our conversation wasn’t so bad.

“Well you should probably know that I’m going back to LA tomorrow morning. I’m finally going to settle the issue with Kellan.” I say as my throat goes dry.

“Everything will be ok.” Harry says with a grin.

I couldn’t hold back my tears, the pain was too real.

Harry leans in a little closer and wipes my tears and holds my face. “You are going to get through this I promise.” Harry says as he presses his head against mine and pulls me close. “I promise.” He says quietly.

I nod my head and create a distance between us, as sweet as Harry was I couldn’t let myself kiss him again.

“How do you know everything will be ok?” I say as I grab a tissue

“I just do. Anyways enough of this sad talk lets watch something. You choose.” Harry grabs my hand and leads me to the sofa and Harry reaches out for the remote and searches for a decent movie for the two of us to watch.

I didn’t know what I would do if Harry wasn’t here to cheer me up. It was times like this that I thought Harry would make a good boyfriend. Obviously not for me though....
