The Worst Best Man | h.s. fanfiction

Chapter 3

    "Wake up!" I heard a voice call out before I felt a pillow smack my face.

I abruptly got up, angrily looking at the person who had woken me up.

"Dammit, Harry! What the hell?!"

He then smirked while tossing the pillow back on the bed. "Arabella and Zayn had to do some things. So, they told me to come over here and keep an eye on you."

"And they told you to wake me up too?!" I yelled rather annoyed.

"Nope, I was just bored."

I groaned as I slowly got out of bed with Harry watching me.

"Stalker much?" I questioned him.

"Just doing what I was told to, babe."

I cringed at the name he called me. I hated him so much.

"So, got any plans for today?" Harry asked me, trying to break the silence.

"Well, actually remember that guy, Liam, the one that you said didn't like me? Well, last night at the dinner he asked me if I wanted to get coffee with him today."

Harry's eyes widened a bit, in fact it kind of confused me. He looked pissed based on the way he was looking down and biting his lip.

"Sounds fun. I hope you two have a great time." He said in a cold tone before leaving.

What the hell is he so upset about? Never mind that, I had to get ready for my 'date' with Liam. I decided to wear a knitted white sweater with black leggings and tall brown boots.

I looked at my appearance in the mirror and smiled. Weird, I've never done that before. I guess this date has got me so pumped that I'm happy with the way I looked.

This is going to be the best date ever!

***

    This is the worst date ever. 45 minutes. He was 45 minutes late! I've been sitting here for almost an hour by myself, waiting for him. I've texted and called, but he would not answer.

The coffee shop was about to close and there wasn't many people there. I decided to just give up and leave. I felt a huge lump in my throat as I walked out of the shop and went to my car. I got in and just started to cry.

I felt so humiliated, embarrassed that I believed I might've had a chance with this guy. But I was so wrong. I finally had the urge to start driving, but tears still streamed down my face.

Once I got to the house, I just wanted to cry myself to sleep. I hoped that Arabella or Zayn wouldn't notice me. I walked inside and was startled by the person standing in the living room.

"Jesus, Harry! What are you doing here?!"

"I'm on patrol." He stated.

I rolled my eyes. "Where are they now?!"

"Out to prepare some stuff for the wedding."

I sighed as I slowly started to walk past him with my head slightly down.

"Are you crying?" Harry asked in a rather concerned tone.

"N-no! Just don't worry about me!" I told him as I tried to get past him.

He then grabbed my hand and spun me around to face him. "Did everything go alright at the... date?"

I was about to just lie to him, but I gave in and I felt tears form in my eyes.

"I got stood up."

"What?"

"I waited at the coffee shop for 45 minutes and he never showed up."

Harry looked quite angry, but slightly sympathetic. Why would he care? We hated each other.

"I-I'm sorry, Avery." He said in a soothing, hushed tone.

I couldn't hold it back anymore, so I just crashed into his chest and started to cry again. I felt his arms wrap around my body as my hands were rested on his chest.

It's weird, I'd never imagine us doing that. It actually felt kind of nice.

I backed away a little to look up at Harry and saw that he was looking down at me.

Wow, I never knew his eyes were green. They're... beautiful.

I got lost in his sparkling, green irises. I felt his hands slowly slide down to my waist. My hands were now clenching his shirt. He pulled me closer to him as he began to slowly lean in. I was so hypnotized that I didn't know that I was leaning in too. Our lips were inches away from each other. Then suddenly, his phone started to ring. Harry sighed as he backed away from me and answered his phone.

"Hello? Hey..... Alright.... Bye." He then hung up the phone and looked over at me.

I awkwardly stood there, biting my lip, not knowing what to say.

"I gotta go. Arabella and Zayn will be here shortly." Harry informed me before leaving the house.

What. The. Hell. Just. Happened?!
