Remember Me?

twenty three

I huff, taking a huge breath as I look over to see Kaycee's face holding her laughter. "So...wanna eat breakfast up here and watch a movie?" I ask, and she nods frantically.

"Yeah. Never mind that Derek guy anyways..." Kaycee rolls her eyes and I laugh.

"See, you already forgot his name! This is great." I smirk as I turn on the DVD player.

"Oh well." Kaycee laughs and almost falls off of the bed.

"Kaycee. Stop trying to die!" I scream, before grasping onto her small leg and pulling her off of the edge.

"Yikes, thanks man. I almost died." Kaycee breathes, and I nod.

"Anyways, let's watch-" I start, still smiling, but I'm interrupted by a cell phone ringing. "Can you check if that's mine?" I ask Kaycee, and she rolls over to my phone.

After a couple seconds she doesn't say anything, she only smiles at me and I wait for her to say something, while my phone is still ringing in her hands.

"What do you want?" I snap jokingly, and she raises an eyebrow at me.

"It's Harry..." she whispers, and I get a giddy feeling in my stomach. Why is he calling me?

"Well...should we answer it?" I shriek. I don't know what to do. It will stop ringing any second, holy fuck.

"Here!" Kaycee yells as she answers and throws the phone at me. I quickly put the phone to my ear, and I hear his raspy voice on the other end greeting me.

"Hey, Brooke."

"Oh, um. Hi Harry..what's up?" I ask, trying to act slick in front of Kaycee. She doesn't seem to buy it by the way I see her arms fold at me. I internally scream.

"Hey, um..I was wondering if you wanted to hang out later on?" he asks me, and I inhale sharply. Why am I acting like this?

"Yeah, that would be nice. What's your plan?" I ask, and Kaycee widens her eyes.

"I could pick you up at six, if that's alright?" he asks quickly, and I giggle.

"Yeah, that's perfect." I smile, and force myself not to look at Kaycee's smirk.

"Alright. I'll see you then b-" he stopped suddenly, and then coughed. "-Brooke." he breathed.
