8 days
I've been able to avoid Harry for 8 days.
Ignoring his calls, texts. He even came by my house 3 times. I just sat on my couch each time with my head in my hands as I listened to him knock on the door saying "Hailey please let me in. I need to talk to you. Please I know you're in there. Just let me explain!"
I would sit there until he eventually left having to force myself not to answer it.
Now I had to head to work and finish a couple books. After I got home from work I was going to apply for a few art schools.
I went through the day drawing and drinking multiple cups of coffee. I couldn't help but feel fatigue from all of the stress that's been overwhelming me latley. My sister still hasnt given me my fucking anxiety pills and I think I may just rob a pharmacy.
Not only the stress but I still woke up in the night panting with sweat drenching my body. Having the same reoccurring nightmare every night hearing his deep voice telling me how worthless I am. Usually when I had the damn dream Id pop two pills and go back to bed bout fuck me right? I would tell myself I'm safe he's in America and you're in London he can't reach you. But i still felt like he was here whispering in my ear that no one would want me or love me. That I'm incapable of love and I actually started believing it.
I finished the last page of a book on a turtle who would fib. I gathered my papers and things and threw them into my messenger bag before heading out.
I gave a quick goodbye and wave to Morgan before I left towards my car.
I searched through my bag viciously as I failed to find my keys.
"Looking for these?" a deep voice that was all to familiar to me. I froze and my body stiffened.
I slowly turned and sure enough the boy I had been trying my hardest to avoid was standing.in front of me holding out my keys.
"Why do you have those?" I asked taking a few steps toward him reaching for the keys he quickly pulled up. I knew I couldn't reach them since he towered over me with a significant height difference.
"I went to your office to try and find you since you've been avoiding me. I saw these sitting on your desk and thought id give them to you." He jingled them above my head smirking as I glared at him.
I jumped and he just rose them higher. He was really starting to piss me off.
"Ill give them to you." I let out a sigh of relief before he began talking again.
"If...you let me explain." I looked at him and groaned. It was getting cold out and the sun was setting so fuck it.
I nodded and started walking toward my car hearing his feet following closely behind.
He handed me the keys after he sat in the passenger seat smirking at me as I rolled my eyes.
I pulled up to my house and went up to my front door not caring about Harry behind me. I opened the door and I walked Harry following suit. He sat on the couch and I sat on the chair looking at him waiting for him to 'explain' and get the fuck out of my house.
"Look, I know I kissed you and shagged that girl... I know I'm the biggest ass ever. I know I'm a womanizer. i know I'm stubborn. I know I'm incredibly handsome and great in bed. but i don't know why i can't get you out of my fucking head so I want to try this friendship bullshit and actually be friends. I won't kiss you and that shit so please?" He looked up at me and I could tell he was actually being sincere. I took every word he said in and laughed at the last few sentences. I mean we can be friends right? There's no heartbreak or feelings just friendship.
