Blinded By Love

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

When we got to Milkshake City, Harry looked amused to see the place.

"Is it your first time here?" I asked looking at his confused face.

"Nope. I grew up drinking milkshake here." He said. He looked at his surrounding and observed every people inside the store.

"Then why do you look so confused and amazed when we got in here? And why are you looking every person here like you're examining them?"

"Well, I've been out of the country for a couple of months and I didn't have time to go back here. A lot has change. The couches and tables are different from the last time I've been here. Even the girl from the counter had change. And to answer your second question, there might be paparazzi here so I have to keep an eye on everything." He said walking in front of the counter and I followed him.

"Hi! Welcome to Milkshake City. What can I get you?" The girl from the counter named Casey asked.

"Hi! Two Candy Fudge, please." Harry told Casey our order.

Casey's eyes went wide when he saw Harry. "A-are you H-harry S-simpson? She asked, stuttering.

"Yes I am." Harry said and smiled at her.

"Wow. I'm a fan" Casey beamed and Harry smiled. She looked at me then back to Harry then back at me again. "Are you two dating?" She asked me.

"No."

"Maybe."

Me and Harry said at the same time.

"What?" The girl asked, confused.

"I'll let you know when she said yes." Harry said to the girl then winked at me. I blushed and rolled my eyes. I took my wallet from my purse but Harry stopped me and said, "Nuh-uh. I'm the guy. I should pay."

"But I asked you to go with me, so its my treat." I protested.

"No way. I'm the guy here. So I'll pay. Just don't protest ok? You are bruising my ego." He argued back.

Guys and their ego.

"Fine." I sighed, defeated. "I'll go and find us a table."

"Oh My God! No way! James really thought that there's literally a giant apple in New York?" I laughed. I can our shoulders brushing against each other.

When Harry got back from the counter, he sat beside me instead of sitting in front of me. I asked him why but he only shrugged it off and took a sip from his milkshake.

And now we are laughing about his story about James when they were in high school.

"Yeah. Really! He even told his parents that he's going to New York to see the Big Apple." He said laughing and remembering those times when he and James were young.

"Oh God! Stupid James. I can't wait to tell Stacy about this. I am sure she will laugh as hard as I am!" I said still laughing.

We were in the middle of our conversation when a little girl at around ten years old came to our table.

"Hi." She greeted us shyly.

"Hi." Me and Harry greeted back. She smiled and turned her gaze to Harry.

"You're Harry Simpson right?"

"Yes it's me. What's your name?" Harry asked politely.

"Emily." she said. "Can I have a picture with you? My sister and I are a big fan. We watched your concert last summer." She smiled shyly.

"Sure and thank you for watching, Emily. Did you enjoyed it?" Harry asked with a glint of pride and happiness in his eyes.

"Of course. My sister was really happy." She took her camera out and switched it on. I smiled looking at Emily. She's very pretty. Her strawberry blonde hair was long and wavy. Her eyes gives so much emotions. And her smile looks angelic.

"Do you want me to take a picture of you two?" I asked her. I saw the corners of Harry's lips twitched while looking at me and Emily. Emily smiled and nodded her head then she gave me her camera. She went beside Harry and I moved in front of them, then I asked them to strike a pose.

"You're so pretty, Emily." I said and smiled at her.

"Thank you. Sorry I didn't catch your name."

"I'm Sammy. Harry's friend and Music Advisor." I said and moved closer to them.

"You and Harry looked good together. I hope you'll be his girlfriend in the future." I blushed at her statement.

I saw Harry smirked and I jabbed him with my elbow. I heard him grunted 'ouch' and I gave him the camera to see their picture.

"You have a beautiful smile, Emily. I hope I could meet your sister in the future too." Harry said.

Emily bit her lip and I saw her eyes getting moist.

"What's wrong?" I asked in concern. She looked at me and smiled sadly.

"My sister died four days after the concert. She's been fighting for cancer since she was five." She said. When she closed her eyes, the tears that she had been holding back fell on her cheeks. I felt a pang of sadness in my heart. I know how it feels to lose the one you love.

"I'm sorry." Harry hugged Emily and kissed her head.

Harry looked so sad when I saw him hugging Emily. I wish I could take his sadness away. His eyes were close but you can feel how heartbroken he felt for Emily.

When Emily broke off from their heartwarming embrace, she leaned forward and whispered something to Harry. Harry smiled and nodded. Emily raised her pinky finger in front of Harry and Harry connected it to his. They looked so cute.

He looks so cute.

After their pinky promise, Emily turned her attention to me. She hugged me and whispered, "Please promise me that you will never leave Harry. He likes you and I can feel that you like him too. Stop confusing yourself." I was shocked from what she said.

How could a ten year old girl tell what I feel or how I feel.

She then broke off from our hug and raised her pinky finger to me. I hesitated at first but still took her pinky finger to mine.

Emily smiled and walked out of the store while waving at us.

"She's so pretty." Harry said.

"Yes she is." I replied.

*****

I've been home for 2 hours and I still can't stop thinking about the promise I made to Emily. I really can't believe that she knew that I'm confused about what I feel for Harry.

Am I that obvious?

When Harry took me home 2 hours ago. I went straight to my backyard where a hammock is attached in between two post of my house and I relaxed myself there thinking about Emily and my feelings. I am really confused of everything about Harry.

When he said that he will make me fall in love with him, I don't know if he's playing with me or he's really sincere. There are time that I thought of maybe he just said those words because when I said that I don't believe in the concept of love, he took it as a challenge for him to make me fall in love. And there are also times that I thought of maybe he really likes me or he really cares about me. That he will never hurt or leave me. I don't know what Harry was thinking so I am really confused of my feeling for him.
