Who Won The Girl (Harry Styles)

Chapter 5

[Harry's P.O.V]

I get home from school and plop myself onto the bed, overthinking what I told Louis. Am I really emotionally ready to ask her out after almost  week of knowing her? 

I'm just scared of one thing.

Rejection.

The feeling of getting turned down, the feeling of getting told you're not good enough, the feeling of loss of hope.

And worst, rejection to be with Ross. My twin brother. He couldn't be any closer to me.

She's this model-like girl who you can't pick out a single flaw from I'm talking about. Why would she even like me? I try to think of all the possible reasons to comfort myself for the big day on Monday. 

''Harry dinner's ready!'' I hear my mum shout from downstairs.

I come downstairs to see them all sat in the dinner table. Theres two empty spaces next to Ross and I decide to take the seat furthest away from him. I just can't seem to look at him the same anymore.

''Why are you so far away?'' Mum asked curiously.

''Nothing, I just like my personal space'' 

[Ross' P.O.V]

Personal space? Coming from a boy who stands 2 inches away from you when asking for a pencil? Coming from a boy who gets all in your face in staring contests? 

Yeah right.

I knew he was angry at me. Angry at me because I have more confidence than him to talk to a girl I like. Not just sit, metres away, hoping she will someday get the idea.

I cough out a laugh to confirm that I've noticed his lie, and he turns to me tensing his jaws before turning back around.

''This is like a soap opera'' Gemma finally says. 

''What's with the tension between you guys? Is it because there's only one slice of pizza left?'' She continues and Harry bursts out laughing, covering his mouth signaling he was trying to keep his serious face.

''If only'' I let out a sigh before taking the napkin and wiping my mouth and going upstairs.

I open the page of my maths book, trying to do my homework, but I can't seem to get to it.

I get up and sit on my window sill and I see Alexis sat in her back garden laying down on the soft grass. She looked gorgeous, her soft hair all over. Wide eyes looking up. I could just ask her out now and get it over with.

[Alexis' P.O.V]

I sit in the garden to watch the beautiful sunset and pull out a daisy. I pick off petals one at a time 

''He loves me''

''He loves me not''

I pick the last petal off

''He loves me.''

The thought made my heart flutter.

Just imagining, Harry here sitting with me in the garden, watching the sunset. Poking eachother. Cracking jokes. Laying down just enjoying the presance of eachother.

Then it hits me, he might not even like me.

All these thoughts could come crashing down on me one day leaving me heart broken. I need to stop these feelings before they bring out the worst in me. 

 I hear a sudden creak of the door, and turn around to see Ross. He gives me a warm smile. 

''What are you doing out here? it's getting a bit colder as the sun provides all the heat and it's setting'' He asks.

I mentally roll my eyes.

''Thanks for the explanation, Einstein'' I laugh. 

''Oh, any time'' He replies. ''I have something to ask you though'' 

''Yeah?'' I smile.

''Will- will yo- will you go on a d-date with me..on Monday?'' He asks shakingly.

If I had a spell to make myself dissappear right now I'd cast it.

I feel bad for him, he gets picked on in school, probably has never had a girlfriend and I guess one little date wouldn't do any harm.

''Sure'' and as the words left my lips he jumped in excitement. 

[Harry's P.O.V]

I sit on the sofa, scanning through the channels, trying to find something decent to watch. I stop on a program 

''Some things just aren't meant to be''  the woman cries.

Okay? I flick before stopping again.

''You think you are rejected because you are not good enough'' A man whispers. ''But really, I was just not ready for all you have to offer''

Is this a coincidence or are all these channels trying to tell me something? 

I hear a loud bang and the door is shut, followed by Ross dancing his way in.

''Why are you so happy?'' I ask depressingly.

''None of your buisness'' He says, copying the tone of my voice when I said it to him a few days ago.

 He probably got accepted into a science university or something.

((Hiiiiii, tell me what you think and don't forget to vote! Sorry it's quite short, it's exam week and im really busy.
