I managed to sneak Harry out this morning so mum didn’t see him. It was weird, I have never had a boy stay at my house before let alone in the same bed as me. I wonder how Harry will act around me at school, now he admitted he liked me. I was getting the impression that his friends don’t want me around. It was 1st period but I hadn’t seen Harry at all today. Sophie was pressuring me into telling her what happened yesterday. I had texted her telling her I went home early but she wasn’t buying it. I never go home early, even if I’m sick I will stick it out the whole day.
“Mia, I don’t believe a word your saying” She says taking her seat next to me.
We had science first period, but we had a sub so he gave us a study period.
“Fine!” I squeak pulling out my English books.
“Harry sort of texted me telling him to meet at the back of the oval” I whisper making sure no one heard.
“What?!” Mia screamed.
The whole room basically turned around to watch us.
“Sorry” She told the class as everyone went back to what they were doing.
I giggled, “So I went”
“You ditched class?”
“Yes, and I know that’s not like me but I needed to know why he kept teasing me.” I sigh.
“And?”
“And, he said he sort of liked me.” I blush turning my attention towards my books.
“He what?” She squeaked.
“OMG Mia, she squealed, lets double date or something” She asked.
“What do you mean double date?” I question.
“Oh, about that.” She blushed.
“Luke and I have been catching up a bit, like last night we went and got some dinner”
“OMG, that’s great!” I squeal.
It was weird how Sophie and I had a date at the same time.
“Let’s invite them to the party tomorrow night.” Sophie squeaks.
“I will ask” I sigh giving in to her double date idea.
“Yay!” she squeals, pulling her English books out.
1st period was over before I know it and I told Sophie I would meet her at our usual spot. As I was walking towards our spot with my recess in my hand I bumped into a tall figure. It was the school jock, Jake. I hated Jake more than I ever had hated Harry. He was another one of the kids in this school who liked to tease me and pull me down.
“Well, if it isn’t mamma Mia.” He laughed blocking my walkway.
Mamma Mia is a nickname he adopted to me. Basically saying I was too uptight and like a mum. I ignored his comment and tried to walk around him.
“Whoa, where you off to so quick?” He says blocking my exit again.
“I’m going to eat my recess” I sass back.
“Ooo someone’s sassy today” He says placing a hand on my waist.
“Get off me you freak.” I shout, pulling myself away from his touch.
He laughs bringing me closer.
“I think she told you to get off her mate” I hear a deep voice behind me say.
I expect to see Harry standing behind me, but instead it is Luke. As in Sophie’s Luke. What was he doing? He is new around, so I didn’t think he should be getting into trouble yet.
“Come on love” He says grabbing my wrist and pulling me away.
Jake stood still, surprised that someone stood up to him. I waited before we had completely past Jake to talk to Luke.
“Ahh, thanks” I say releasing my wrist from his grasp.
“No worries, he’s a dick anyway” He replies.
“Your Sophie’s friend right?” He asks following me to our spot.
“That’s right, I’m Mia” I say putting a hand out in front of me.
“I’m Luke” He grins, shaking my hand.
“Sophie’s around here if you want to talk to her” I tell him.
“It’s okay I will catch up with her later, I have to go, Bye!” He chirped turning the other way.
Well that was nice, seems as though Sophie’s got a winner. Luke had dirty blonde hair and it was perfectly moulded into a quiff. He had his lipped pierced and a few tattoos on his arm. He was pretty attractive but not my type.
“Guess who I just ran into” I squeak as I sit down next to Sophie.
“Who? Harry?” She guessed.
“Actually Luke.” I laugh opening my popcorn packet.
“You met him!?” She squealed.
“Yes! He kind of saved me from Jake” I smile.
“Jake stopped you again?” She asks.
“Yes unfortunately, but Luke told him to get lost.” I Smile.
“Awww!” She squeals, making me laugh.
The 3rd period bell rang and I still hadn’t seen Harry. Sophie had a meeting with a teacher at lunch so I decided to go look for him. I walked around for a bit till I realised I should probably just go to his usual spot, where all his friends sit. But he wasn’t there. Maybes he’s away today? But he got ready for school with me! I decided to look for him later and made my way out of the canteen area.
I was pulled back in my tracks as a hand wrapped around my wrist. I flinched at the pain a little as the hand wrapped around tight and was right on my scars. My Body turned as I was pulled into someone’s chest. Arms wrapped around me and I could smell the familiar vanilla scent. It was Harry. I giggled as I heard the gasps from around the canteen. The jerk of the school who had all the tattoos and piercings was hugging me in front of everyone. I peered my head up a little and saw everyone looking our way. The person who stood out the most was Nikki. Her eyes were wide open and her face held an angry expression.
“Harry, people are staring!” I whisper trying to pull away.
“Oh right” he laughs pulling away as well.
He turns around shooting everyone a glare as they all quickly turn away.
“Sorry, I forgot we aren’t dating or anything” He laughs.
What does he mean? Does he want to date me?
“Yes harry” I giggle. Turning around to see Nikki’s shocked face.
“Your friends don’t look to happy” I whisper turning away.
“They will get over it” He sighs shifting his weigh from side to side.
“Umm, Sophie and I have an 18th tomorrow night and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me” I blurt out with sudden bravery.
“An 18th? There will be drinking are you sure you should go to that?” Harry questions.
“I can do what I want harry, I am a grown up you know” I hiss back, why was he being so protective?
“Okay jeez. I will go with you” He smiles.
“Partly because there no way I would let you go on your own” He smirks.
“Pick you up at 7?” he asks after a few second break.
“Sure, I better get going. Have to get my books for 4th period” I say, starting to turn around.
“Okay then, Bye” Harry says moving away towards his friends.
