My Boyfriend's Best Friend

Chapter 2

"So, where do we start?" Harry asked.

"I think we should probably start by seeing what biome we have," I giggled.

"Right," he replied. Harry seemed a bit nervous.

"So we have the rainforest," I said examining the paper.

"Great, because I know so much about the rainforest," Harry joked making me laugh.

"Don't we all?" I asked in reply. The awkwardness had faded away.

"Okay so what do we do now?" Harry asked.

"I don't know. Maybe we should start the report," I suggested.

"Okay sounds good, I'll go get my laptop," he said walking into his room.

I waited patiently on his couch until he returned with his laptop and two sodas, a Sprite and a Pepsi. After he set the Pepsi down on the table in front of me he flipped his hair, removing it from his eyes. He was so cute and I found it hard to stop myself from telling him.

"Thanks," I said taking the Pepsi in my hands. I remember talling him once that Pepsi was my favorite soda. I didn't think he'd remember.

"No problem. Now let's get started shall we?" Harry said playfully.

"We shall," I replied

~~~

A lot of research and two hours later, Harry and I had our entire report completed. Working with him was so much fun. He made homework fun. How was that even possible?

"So I'll see you tomorrow?" Harry asked as we stood in the doorway of his front door.

"Yeah," I replied turning around.

I quickly turned back around remembering that I had no way to get home.

"Sorry for asking but can you give me ride home?" I asked. 

"You don't have to be sorry, of course I'll give you a ride," he said with a smile.

That smile. 

Right when I got into Harry's, car I got a text from Niall.

"Hey babe, do you need a ride home from Harry's?xx"

"No he's taking me home. Are you coming over?x"

"Yeah, I'll be at your place in 30 minutes. See you.x"

"Okay. I can't wait!! xx"

Before I knew it Harry had pulled up in front of my house.

"Thanks for taking me home," I praised.

"Don't mention it. See you tomorrow," Harry said. I just nodded and closed the door of his car and he drove off.

Twenty minutes later I heard the sound of Niall's car pulling up in front of my house.

"Hey Jules," Niall said kissing me on the cheek and walking into my house. I lead him back into my room.

"Hey Ni, how was football practice?" I asked wondering if he was still going to lie to me.

"It was good but I didn't really do much," he replied.

"What do you mean?" I questioned

"Well I was all by myself because I was just practicing for tryouts next week, and I was thinking of you the whole time," he said. So he was telling the truth.

It was times like this when I wish I could just erase all of my feelings for Harry. Niall was the sweetest boyfriend and he was always thinking about me. He'd do anything for me but here I was drooling over his best friend.

Why was I so bad to him?

"Aww," I blushed sitting down next to him.

I leaned in close to Niall and rested my head on his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around me, making me feel secure. That was one ting that would never change. No matter what I always felt the safest when I was in his arms.

"So what did you and Harry do at his place?" he asked. His tone wasn't the usual jealous tone he had when he asked me about other guys. He was just curious.

"We just worked on a report for biology. It was kinda boring, I wish you were there," I lied. Being with Harry was actually really fun and I was glad that I got to spend sometime alone with him.

"Me too, I missed you," he said.

"I missed you too. How long are you staying?" I asked him.

"Not long I have to get home soon. I haven't done any homework," Niall replied.

"Okay," I said.

"Let's not let that time go to waste," he said planting a kiss on my lips. Within second our lips were moving together in perfect rythmn. I missed the feeling I used to get in the pit of my stomach when he would kiss me.

I missed the way our relationship used to be.

The butterflies.

The way he knew everything about me.

The way I felt when he kissed me.

The way I always wanted to be with him.

Nothing was the same anymore but I deperately wished it could be.

"I should probably get going now," Niall said breaking our kiss.

"Okay," I said breathlessly.

"I'll take you to school tomorrow," he said.

"Okay text me when," I said.

"Alright, I love you," he whispered in my ear and embracing me in a hug.

"I love you too," I told hm. I wasn't lying, I did love him. Just not the way I used to. I wished things could have been different between us.

But they weren't.
