We'll Make it (PTV Fan Fiction)

~Oops~

Note: That song is pretty great ^ 

~Harper's POV~

I run up the stairs and into the bathroom. I close the door and sit with my back to it. Why did I let myself fall asleep like that? Now Avery will think there is something going on with him and I. I mean, I guess we did fall asleep together. I don't really have feelings for him, at least I don't think I do. He is just now starting to get to know me, and I am just starting to get to know him. After a minute or so, I get up and walk out of the bathroom and into Tony's room. I don't really know where I am supposed to sleep, but for now my bag is staying in his room. 

I go over to my bag and grab out some clothes. I start to take off my shirt as I hear someone clear their throat behind me. I turn around quickly, pulling my shirt back down. Tony is sitting there on his bed with his laptop. I guess I didn't notice him sitting there. Damn, I need to quit doing that! 

"Fuck! Sorry!" I say and grab my bag and start to leave the room. I make my way back to the bathroom. I slam the door shut, mad at my own mistake. Why is it so hard for me to notice my surroundings? I change my clothes and then walk back to Tony's room. I open the door and go put my bag back into the corner. He smiles up over his laptop at me. He has the cutest smile, I swear to god. 

"I didn't mean to-" I begin but then get cut off.

"It's fine. You shouldn't apologize for every little thing you do." He says to me, looking back down at his laptop. I look over at him. What does he mean?

"What do you mean by that?" I ask. He looks up at me.

"You always apologize after the littlest things. You don't have to do that." He shrugs and then looks back at his laptop. I go sit by him and look at what is on the screen. Looks like he is working on a song or something. I decide to wait and ask about it later.

"I feel like I have to. I always find a way to embarrass myself." I laugh a little, looking down at my hands.

"It's kind of cute actually." CUTE? He thinks the little awkward things I do are cute?! I am honestly so shocked. I stare at him, and he stares back. Oh fuck, we are so close right now. I didn't realize we were this close. I start to notice his tattoos more. They are all so unique and different. I wonder what they look like under his shirt... 

"Thanks I guess." I stop myself from that thought. I barely know him. I shouldn't be thinking those sorts of things. We break our little moment and I get up and leave the room quickly. My heart is about to beat out of my chest. My stomach is in knots. Why does he make me feel this way? It's almost like... Like I like him or something. I quickly dismiss that thought. Oh, I probably need to go talk to Avery. After all that has happened in the last 24 hours I think it is good that we talk and sort things out.

~Tony's POV~

I realize what I just said and immediately regret it. I know Harper doesn't feel the same way towards me, and I just went and screwed up everything. As soon as she left I knew I had made her feel awkward. The other part of me wishes I would have just closed the gap between us and kissed her. 

I get up off of my bed and walk downstairs to the living room. I see Mike and Vic on the couch talking. Jaime hasn't woke up yet I guess. 

"What's up?" I ask them. I sit in one of the chairs across from the couch. They both stop and stare at me. I stare straight back at them and add, "Did I interrupt something?" 

"Uh no you didn't. We weren't talking about anything." Vic says quickly. I know he is lying, but I don't want to question him right now. Why is everyone being so secretive today? They eventually get to talking about something else, so I get up and walk to the kitchen. I see the door to Vic's room right next to the kitchen. The door is closed, and I know he is the only one of us who leaves his door open all the time. Someone is probably in there. I walk over to the door and as I am about to open it I hear Avery's voice. I stop and take my hand off of the door knob. 

"So what happened after that?" Avery says. She must be talking to Harper. 

"Well we were just watching a movie, and eventually he was holding my hand and I was cuddling up to him. I don't know what I was thinking honestly." Harper says to Avery. I start to process what she was saying. Does she like one of the other guys? I know it couldn't be Vic or me. So it would have to be Jaime or Mike.

"I think you know who you like, Harper." 

"I don't like anyone, Ave." First time I have heard anyone refer to Avery as 'Ave'. They must have always used nicknames for each other.

"Yes you do. I know who you like. I am not blind or dumb. Vic knows it too." Avery says and laughs. Why am I even listening to their conversation? I turn and walk away from the door.

~Avery's POV~

I walk outside of Vic's room and into the living room. I can't wait till Harper finally decides to tell me that she really does like Mike. I think she does at least. It will have to be kept a secret for awhile though, because of Tony. I feel bad for him because I know how much he likes Harper. They seem to be fairly close though, so I bet Harper just sees him as a friend. I sit on the couch and see Tony sitting in the chair across the room. 

"Hey." I say simply to him. 

"Hey. What have you been up to?" He asks me. 

"Well, I talked with Harper earlier but other than that nothing really." I say. I usually have something to do everyday but today is my day off work. I never do anything on my days off. 

"Oh, yeah cool I guess. I mean it's cool that you talked to Harper." He speaks so quick. I don't think that is normal for him. I start to question him.

"Is something wrong, Tony?" I ask him, genuinely concerned. 

"What? No, nope. Not at all!" 

"What did you do?" I question.

"What did I do? I did nothing. Seriously. Why are you asking so many questions? God." He starts to get mad. I didn't mean to make him mad, I just wanted to know what was wrong. Is it something with Harper? He gets up and walks up the stairs. I get up and follow him a few minutes after I hear his door shut. I knock on the door lightly.

"It's me. Lets talk... Please." I say. Me and Tony are pretty good friends and we usually can tell each other almost anything. I open the door and walk in. I sit on the floor next to his bed where he is sitting.

"Sorry." He says to me. I smile up at him.

"It's fine. So what was all that about?" I ask. 

"I don't really want to talk about it." What could he not want to talk about with me? "Okay fine, I was outside the door listening to you and Harper talking earlier." he confesses. I try to hold back from being mad, because I know he heard us talking about Mike probably.

"What all did you hear?" I ask quietly. I don't want to have to break the news to him. 

"Just about her with another one of the guys. Not much more." He says, trying to act all cool. I know he is probably still processing all that he heard. 

"I hate to break it to you Tony, but I know you like her" I start then add, "Well me and Vic both know. I'm not sure about Harper." 

"It's that obvious?" He starts to blush slightly. I smile at him, because I know what I say next will probably hurt.

"Yeah kind of. But the other thing is that... Well, me and Vic think Harper may be interested in Mike as more than a friend." I say quietly, as if we are middle school kids gossiping. I notice that his facial expression has changed. He looks much more depressed now. 

"Oh." is all he says. 

"I am really sorry. I didn't want to be the one to tell you, but you just brought it up and I didn't feel right keeping it from you." I say, then turn and walk out the door to his room and shut it behind me.

I think it was for the best.
