Oh God. "What's up?" I ask.
He hands me the mug "Drink this, it'll make your head feel better,"
I look at it. "Don't be difficult Jess just drink it," he snaps sounding irritated.
Why is he mad at me? He's been here for not even 5 minutes and he's already pissed at me. I'm sorry for not wanting to drink strange beverages. "Why are you mad at me?" I ask.
"I'm not" he takes a deep breath. "I'm not mad at you,"
"You sound mad at me," I say before taking a drink out of the mug. It was disgusting.
"I can't be mad at you Jess, all I've been able to do is think about you, and it kills me," Where is this going? I hope it's going where I think it is. "It kills me because I'm in love with you and there's nothing I can do about it,"
Did he just tell me he was in love with me? My heart felt like it exploded. I don't know what I'm feeling right now. I feel weird. I open my mouth to say something but nothing comes out. "Harry I-" he cuts me off. "You don't have to say anything, I just had to say that," Should I tell him? Yes I should. Wait no I shouldn't he's Matt's best friend. I know he feels the same but I don't know. Before I can say anything he crashes his lips onto mine. I kiss back.
Wait this can't happen. It felt amazing but it can't happen. I pull away from him. "I'm sorry. That shouldn't have happened," he says.
"It's alright Harry," I say looking at him, trying to read him.
"No," he runs his hand through his hair. "It's not alright Jess. It would be if we could make it work but we can't,"
I just sit there, I don't know what to do or say. "I care about you Jess, and I don't want you to get hurt,"
"Why does everybody keep telling me that?" I ask. "I'm tired of people treating me like a little kid,"
"I don't think your a little kid Jess, but your my best friends little sister, and I don't want to hurt you, because we can't make this work. No matter how bad we want it to we can't" he stares at me with a blank expression. My heart literally broke. I knew he was right. Why does this have to happen? I look down at my hands. "I never said I didn't want to try."
*** {Sunday}
I sat outside on the window sill. I was at Matt's house, he got back this morning. It was really weird around Harry. I don't know where we stand, or if there is a we. "You alright kid?" I turn my head to see Matt.
"Yeah," I say.
He sits next to me. "You feeling better?" I nod. "I'm glad Harry took good care of you,"
I laugh. "Where is he anyway?"
"I think he's in the kitchen with mom. Everything ok?" he asks.
"Yeah I just need to talk to talk to him," I say walking towards the back door..
I walk into the living room and Madison is sitting on the couch, on her phone. God I can't stand her. "What?" her squeaky voice asks, as I look around the room trying to find Harry. "Nothing," I say.
She rolls her eyes and looks back down at her phone. "If your not careful your eyes might fall out of your head," I say not very loud but hoping she heard it. She just looks mad. I think she's just an angry person. I don't know what's wrong with her but she needs to go see a therapist or meet Jesus.
I walk into the kitchen and there was Harry and my mom in the kitchen. He instantly stopped what he was doing when he saw me. My mom wraps her arms around me. This is the first time I've seen her since Thursday. "Hey mom." she starts talking her head off. I look at Harry desperately. When my mom leave to go talk to Madison Harry walks over to me.
"What's wrong?" he asks. Why does everybody always think something's wrong?
"Nothing, I just need to talk to you," I say.
"Alright," he grabs my arm and turns me towards the door. We go into his room. He closes the door.
"I just want to know where we are," I say.
He stays silent for a second. "I like you Jess, you know that, and you like me. So I guess that makes us us," he says.
"What do you mean by us?" I ask.
He moves closer to me. He lets out a breath "Will you be my girlfriend?"
I couldn't fight the smile spreading on my face, as I nodded.
