Finally Biology had finished, thank god. I cannot stand another lecture from Miss Gardner about the big bang theory and god. She just annoys me in general never mind her talking and talking. 3rd lessons always my free period, so I go to the library to study for History (again). Another horror i do not want to go to. 

Pushing the double doors open leading to the quiet library, I take a seat. It seems to quite for a library. I know they are quiet in any case, but ours is never quite. there's always some jock bouncing a basketball round or some snotty bitches snickering at me. Its usually my sister who does that but i take no notice to any of them.

Pulling out my notes from my binder and my pencil from my bag i begin to study. Studying is the only thing that really calms me down. Its Chloe time. Time that I have all to me and to let my thoughts run through my mind. Even though i should be studying, sometimes I just come in here and admire the quietness. The only time its quiet in my house is when I'm home alone.

Looking down at my study notes, a shadow appears on my book. 

"Your in the way jackass" I spit not looking up from my notes. Ellie always likes to piss me off when I'm studying. She likes to distract me and put me off. But Ellie's not here. Shit, I've just mouthed of to a stranger. Or even a teacher.

"Someone's got there claws out today" a raspy voice replies pulling out the wooden chair and sitting across the table from me.

I haven't acknowledged the stranger yet, but i have a pretty good idea of who it is.

Harry.

Looking in the corner of my eye, I look up to see if its actually him. It is.

Why is in the library? What is he doing? And more importantly, why is he talking to me? There are plenty of other people in here he talks to, why me?

"I..er.."

"Stuttering there Tanner" hes such a dick.

"Well I was going to apologize for being rude, but since your being a dick about it I'm not now"

Jesus Chloe. Where'd this come from?

A smirk rises on his face and dimples appear.

"Feisty today aren't we"

Moving the chair backwards slightly, he throws his big brown boots onto the table. Not once have I ever seen him come into school without those boots on. Whenever he came our house for Ellie, Id always know he was here because of the shoes.

Slowly I place my pencil on my study notes and look up.

"What do you want?" I ask sighing.

"Can I not have a simple conversation with my girlfriends baby sister?" now hes starting to piss me off more than my own sister. As much as i want to slide my notes off the desk, climb on the table and kiss him, I want to slap him at the same time. 

"You haven't spoken to me in months, possibly years and now you decide that we can finally have a conversation. Really I just came in here for some Chloe time so If you wouldn't mind leaving me in piece, that would be much appreciated" 

He lowers his boots from the table and put both his hands on the desk.

"Alright then Ill leave you in peace" I release a breath I didn't know i was holding as i see him walking away.

"Oh and Clo, I'm driving you home" just before everything was going back to normal, a bomb hits me.

"WHAT" I practically shout in the middle of the library. Teachers and peers are looking at me. I'm frozen. After a few seconds I snap out of my faze, grab my stuff and exit the library doors still in shock.

I know its not a big deal that my sisters boyfriend is driving me home but, if hes driving me home then hes going to have to come in the house and stay with me until Ellie gets back from wherever. My parents don't trust me alone so Ill need a 'babysitter'. Ellie's the one who always looks after me when mom and dad are away. But Ellie's out, so Harry's gonna have to me my 'babysitter'.

Shit.
