Nerd by Night (H. Styles)

Chapter 6

DANIELLE'S P.O.V.

Zayn took me to the movies and we saw a really sweet movie. I'm just walking from the bathroom back to him now.

"Hey Zayn-" I stop when I see him talking to Harry and Amanda talking to him. "Hey Danielle, look who I saw!" He chuckles. I smile and walk over to him. "Hey guys." I smile. Harry returns the smile, but Amanda just has this playful grin on her face that makes a shudder.

"Ready to go?" Zayn nudges my shoulder. "Yeah, but where?" I ask, hopeful he'll actually tell me where.. "I guess you'll have to wait and see..." I groan and we say good bye to Harry and Amanda. We walk hand in hand out of the cinema, me thinking about her and Harry. They don't really look like the two people to be together. Not after what happened...

"Zayn stop!" I laugh as he continues to chase me around the park path, where people are walking or jogging. "Never!" He screeches and then grabs my waist and carries me over to a bench. I smile and lean on him, thinking of how fast everything is going with us. Its literally been two days of us together as a couple. We already had our first kiss on our first date. I do really have feelings for him, hes such a sweet guy when you get to know him well.

"Danielle?" An angry, familiar voice says from behind us. I turn around and take a shaky breath. "Ryan." I force a smile to decorate my lips and hid my true feelings. Zayn turned around then and started staring at him.

"You're dating him? I thought you would be with that other kid, Harry. After how you dumped me." Ryan shakes his head.

"I thought you were arrested?" I say just above a whisper. "Its called bail." He rolls his eyes.

"Danielle, lets go, yeah?" I nod and grab Zayns' out stretched hand. "Bye sweetie!" Ryan mocks. I shiver, and walk closer to Zayn. He opens his car door for me and I try to calm down before he gets into the car. I don't want him to see me like this. So.. so... fragile.

"Danielle, are you alright?" He asks after a good solid five minutes. I nod and rest my head against the cold window. We drive in science all the way back to Harry's. I don't think either of us really want to talk about what just happened.

"Thank you Zayn. I had a great time today." I smile and kiss his lips. "Anytime. Text me later, okay?" I nod and give a parting smile before I walk to the door. The scent of Alfredo fills my senses and I relax a little from the unfriendly encounter. I see Harry and Anne cooking in the kitchen as I walk closer into the house.

"Hi guys." I smile at them before grabbing a glass of tea from the fridge. Anne hugs me and asks about my day.

"Well, it was good before just twenty minutes ago..." I trail off, remember his mocking grin and new bad guy look. Everything about him now gives me an eerie vibe. He was never this way. He used to be so kind, but was always jealous.

"Why, what happened?" Harry asks. Anne gives me her full attention also. "Well... Ryan was there... and talked to us.." My whole body shakes for a quick second as I remember the past events.

"Wait, I thought he was in jail?" Harry asks again, fist in a tight ball. "He told me he got out on bail. He also said he thought I was dating you." I point a finger at Harry. "That boy needs help. He should be no where near you two." Anne shakes her head. Harry and I nod in agreement. After what happened, we really should get a restraining order.

"Zayn and I left right after that. He gave off this creepy vibe, and it scared me." I admit. "Well, you're okay now. I don't think he'll try to hurt you again. Or Harry for that matter. Go wash up, dinner will be done in a few minutes, okay?" Anne gives me a reasurring smile. I nod, then go to my room, trying to clear my head. I just want to forget about the pain he inflicted to us all.

HARRY'S P.O.V.

"I feel so bad for her. Its not right. If this boy starts to stalk her I'm going with her to get a restraining order. Anyways, what did you do today?" Mum sighs, then asks me. I go back to cutting vegetables for the salad. "I went on another date with Amanda. We ran into Dani and Zayn, though." I reply.

"Aw, that's nice. Do you like this girl?" She asks. I shrug. I actually don't know if I really care deeply for her in that way. But I do like her.

"Yeah, I do. Can I go wash?" I ask, not wanting to work any longer. "Yeah, go ahead." I smile to her and wash my hands in the kitchen sink. I go sit on the couch and decide to see what kinds of movies they have on. As I skip show after show, dinner is done. We all come down and sit at the table to eat mums' delicious cooking.

"Harry, c'mon! Were playing a game now!" Mum yells. I groan, not wanting to join in on their 'girl party'. They all know I hate when they start talking all girly. Which is a lot unfortunately. "Now!" She yells again. I grab my crutches and go down stairs, fumbling along the way. Also taking my sweet time to get down stairs.

"Yes mum..?" I ask once I approach the girl group. "Come take a seat and play". I see Monopoly spread out on the kitchen table, and the girls are all around it. I take a seat next to Gemma and Danielle. They hand me a piece to play with and I make my mum happy by playing.

"Good night!" Mum calls before she goes into her room. I walk past Danielle's room and see her on her bed through the slight crack. I chuckle to myself before padding over to my room. Today was weird, for everyone.
