Back And Forth (Sequel To Sent From Above)

18. You & I

        Thanksgiving day. Turkey , mashed potatoes, green beans , Christmas trees and lights . It was that time of holiday once again . But this time , it was going to be different. I wasn't here with my family , mom and dad. No I wasn't going to spend it with them alone. This time , Harry's family coming over , along with mine's and Jamie with Becky as well. This is going to be huge !

     Harry's P.O.V.

          "Gemma can you hurry it up ? Remi must be waiting for us !" I groaned , not looking up from my phone.

               "Geesh Harry , chill I'm just going to go find my boots ! " I heard her shout back at me. Looking up for a bit , all I saw was her brown hair disappearing into the hallway. Sighing , I placed my phone back into my coat pocket , standing up  brushing dirt off my pants , though I knew there was nothing on them . I looked up to see Gemma still hasn't come out of her room. A grunt escaping out of my lips , I looked around me , something catching my eyes ,her computer was left open and on. Checking behind me that she still wasn't out , I went to her computer opening up a webpage for something, I realized a page was already open . A email from Remi to Gem . Frowning , I opened the page up , seeing the three paragraphs email Remi wrote.

     Reading the email , I felt my heart clench , my fingers shaking a bit. Closing the computer , I walked out to the balcony looking out to the streets below us . Seeing people walking by with a smile on their face , some laughing with their hands entwined looking straight ahead. Brushing my hair hair away from my forehead , I heard Gemma call out my name.

             "You're going to make us late by spying on people Harry. Let's go !" She gestured over to me to come to her . Walking away frmo the balcony, closing it's door , I saw Gemma with a smile on her face , her coat on her skinny arms .

                        "Alright let's get. " I said , putting an arm around Gem.

............................................................

        "Oh my gosh , I can't believe we are having thanksgiving in New York ! " Gemma squealed , putting her makeup bag back in her bag. 

                    "Oh how beautiful Times Squares look likes with this holiday . And the holiday coffee they serve here , amazing !" She smiled , looking out to the passenger window. Keeping a straight face , my hands gripping hard on the wheel , I couldn't state the fact but thinking about the email Remi sent.

           "Well you're awfully quiet , are not in the cheering mood ?" Gemma looked over to me . Sighing , we stopped on a red light , waiting for it to turn green , Gemma took ,my hand into hers.

     Looking over to her , I saw she had a sympathy smile which I didn't want at this time.

            "Harry , are you and Remi talking ?" Her voice hinted a bit of concern.

    "Why you care anyways?" I snapped at her , brushing her hand away from mine. I heard her sigh , placing her hand on her lap.

              "Well cause Remi hurting , Harry. You may not see it but when she came over last night , she didn't look like herself.''

          "She never herself.'' I grumbled , a frown appearing on my face.

                  "You're never yourself Harold.'' She said back. I bit my bottom lip , not daring to look back at Gem though I knew she was looking at me .

         "Harry , you may not see it but Remi as my friend , She looks hurt . I bet she falls asleep waiting for you to get in bed and make sure you got home safe . Two nights ago , Harry she stayed up till two in the morning and staying up that late when you have school it's a nightmare. She clearly worried about you-''
