chapter 26

MEGAN'S POV

My feet shuffled through the parking lot and into school lazily. I begrudgingly walked up to my locker where Anna was gossipping with some other girls in our grade. I was too tired to really care what they were saying, but they seemed to fall hushed when I approached.

I simply ignored their suspicious behavior and packed my books into my locker. I turned around to talk to Anna but she and the group of girls had since disappeared.

Crap. I really needed to talk to her. Why was no one here for me when I needed them?

I wandered around the halls looking for her or any of my other friends, who were also mysteriously gone. I was turning around a corner when I stopped.

Anna was chatting with Will, my boyfriend. Anna was laughing at something he had said.

I felt my teeth clench together and my eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I bet his joke wasn't even funny. That was Anna's flirty laugh. I was about to storm over there when I stopped myself. Marcel was standing alone just a few yards away from them. I really didn't want to pass him.

I didn't want to deal with that situation right now, especially with my current basically-boyfriend chatting with my best friend within earshot. Will wouldn't be happy to hear I had kissed some nerd behind his back. 

But then again, he was standing here talking to another girl.

Chill, Megan... I took a deep breath and tiptoed into the girls bathroom to get away from them and reevaluate the situation. I reminded myself that I was the one dating Will and not Anna. There must be some explanation for this. Besides, they were only talking. 

Maybe some relaxation was all I needed. 

I had soon convinced myself that it was all in my head, though I still didn't like the idea. And Anna had been acting quite suspiciously last night. I shot the thoughts out of my mind, refusing them reentry. I had to learn to trust. 

"Megan?" Will's voice caught me as I walked out the door of the small restroom.

"Um, hi Will," I muttered, refusing to look him in the eye. I was feeling both angry at him for talking to Anna and guilty about kissing... someone else. 

"Hey, what's wrong babe?" Will's voice calling me babe still gave me a little flutter in my stomach, so I looked up to face him. He had a genuinely concerned look on his face as I met his bright eyes with my tired ones. 

"I..." I began. I wasn't sure where I was going with it, so I just shut my mouth and looked down again.

"Did Anna tell you already?" Will said, sounding worried.

"Tell me what?" I said, starting to get upset. They were hiding somehting from me, weren't they? How could I have been so blind?

"Oh, we uh... she helped me plan a date for you and I!" Will said. "I wasn't going to tell you but Anna said that I should. Because, well, it's tonight!" The sparkle in his eyes made me feel so comforted that I hugged him right there.

He was surprised at first, but then he wrapped his long, lanky arms around my small frame. I looked around and, when I saw how many girls were watching me with jealousy, I kissed his cheek quickly. 

Might as well give them the full show.

"Pick you up at five?" I nodded at his question and smiled again. I guess I had nothing to worry about.

My classes that day were close to unbearable, but I dealt with the boredom by scrolling through my twitter feed during the teachers' lectures. As if the old guys even noticed.

I rarely went on twitter, but I had one just to keep up with my favorite celebrities and what they've been up to.

I saw that there was a movie version of The Fault in our Stars being made, and I silently cried because that is my all-time favorite book. 

Kim Kardashian's baby got its first haircut...

Miley Cyrus twerked on some awards show...

Some rapper got in trouble for drug use...

I was getting bored of all these same-old same-old tweets when, all of a sudden, I came upon a golden tweet. My breath caught and I nearly choked as I read it over and over again in my head.

@Harry_Styles: Family is good. That's why I'm heading out to Texas for a couple weeks. Hello America, land of the free and home of the brave!

I stared at the tweet for a good minute and a half. Classic Harry, sounding like a dork when all he had to do was say he was coming to Texas. But... HE WAS COMING TO TEXAS?!

My mind quickly reminded me that Texas was a big state and he would probably be no where near me, but I still couldn't handle the thought of Harry in the same vicinity as me.

I scrolled through a bunch of update accounts until I found exactly what I was looking for. 

Harry would be arriving tonight at an airport only about thirty minutes from my house. His plane was scheduled to arrive at about four-thirty in the afternoon. I almost squealed with delight.

I don't know how they did it, but I am extremely thankful for the crazy Directioners who figure this stuff out. 

Suddenly it dawned on me that I was going to have to cancel my date with Will tonight. I weighed the advantages and realized that Will would always be here while Harry Styles would not. I had to go to the airport, no matter what Will wants me to do.

I'm coming, Harry.
