"...can i come in?"

  he looks so vulnerable. i know i should say no after what he said, but my heart just won't let me. i nod my head and move aside so he can come in. he takes a seat on my bed and i walk over to him. he doesn't say anything for awhile. i can tell he's thinking about something.  

"are you gonna talk?"   "i'm..i'm really sorry"   "you're sorry? that's all you have to say? that you're sorry?"  

"i...i was just trying to reflect the attention off of you...i thought i was helping.."  

i couldn't help but smile a little do to his effort to help. "you're kind of my hero."  

"i was trying." i can hear the relief in his voice as he stands up and makes his way to me. he cups my face between his cold hands and presses his lips against mine. i wish he would never stop. he gives me this sensation that ive never felt before.   

we're interrupted by a knock on the door.  

"hey Kat, can you let me in? i forgot my key!" it's Maddie.  

"yeah, just a sec." i start walking over towards the door when harry sprints into my closet.  

"where are you going?"  

"im hiding. i don't want her to see me in here. try to get rid of her." I'm kind of heartbroken that after all that happened, hes still embarrassed to be seen with me. 

i shake it off and open the door for Maddie. She's with Niall, of course. Getting rid of them is going to be harder than i thought. they sit down on her bed together.

"well, how was your day?" she asks, trying to break the awkward tension in the room. I started to somewhat explain my day and we just kept talking and talking. Before i knew it, it was 7:15, Harry has been in the closet for about an hour and ten minutes.

"Hey, maddie, do you guys wanna go get some food?"

"Yeah! Take out sounds good. How about you order and we'll go get it." thank god she offered to leave. I feel bad for Harry, he's been in there for awhile.

As I'm giving Maddie her receipt and she's walking out the door, we both hear a loud boom coming from the closet. Shit Harry.

"What was that?"

"Oh, nothing.. probably nothing.."

"it sounds like something fell over by the closet. 

"I'll check it out, you go get the food."

"No, no, i got it.." She makes her way over to the closet and whips the door open to find Harry, sitting on the floor. She gasps, slams it shut and runs over to me.

"Why the hell is he in our room Kat?!"

"Um, i don't know.."

"I never thought he was you type.." I honestly didn't even know what my type was. If a boy liked me, i usually liked him back, which is very sad now that i say it in my head. I'm about to open my mouth when Harry opens up the closet door and walks out.

"Where are you going?"

"Home. I shouldn't have came." With that, he left, and so did i. Not to chase after him, but to get away from everything for a little bit.

I drove to the nearby coffee shop and got a carmel frappuccino and studied for awhile. I don't know how much time has passed, but it must have been at least 3 hours.

"Hey nerd."

"Shit Liam, you scared the crap out of me!" I playfully punch his arm and he giggles. I'm very surprised to see him here, I didn't take him as the type that enjoys books.

He takes a seat next to me and we start talking. He's literally so funny and i'm glad he's here because he is just what i needed. After what seemed like 4 hours of talking, we decided to leave. 

"Hey, um, i don't mean to bother you, but roommate and i are kind of in a big fight right now and i don't feel like going back there right now so could i maybe crash at your place?"

"Of course." He's so sweet, how could i say no?

We get back to my room and i'm hoping Maddie is asleep, I hope she's not upset with me or anything. I unlock the door and open it to find Harry sitting on my bed, almost anxious looking. His eyes snap to look at me as soon as i open the door and his happy expression turns to sad and confused almost instantly. He gets up, almost like he's going to walk out the door. I should just let him, but I can't.

"Harry..."
