Hold Me Tight // h.s. [EDITING]

   Kacey's POV:

Beautiful. Just beautiful. My new white top now had sticky syrup on it from the pancakes my mom made today. Not that I was complaining too much though. Well, today was a big day. My first day as a senior.

   All those years of waiting in line to be the at the top of the group. All those years of teasing and bullying I had to get through to get to the top of the group. And this was my chance, to prove who I really was.

   I set in my mind to be a whole different person this year. One who used her status and kept her status. A status of being popular was a lot harder than you think. You have to make sure every single thing you do is perfect. Everything. But I decided that I wasn't going to be one of those bratty punks.

   No one deserves to be treated like how they treated others. Everything they did was only for show, never did they feel emotions or think how they would hurt others. Cause it only mattered about them.

   I cleared up my mind from all that crap and kept it free. But one thing stayed in my mind. A particular boy that stole my heart. And decided to never give it back. A handsome young man with the name of Harry Edward Styles (yes I knew his middle name, and no I'm not a stalker).

   He was definitely one of those jocks that flirted with every single girl they saw. He was a lady's man. His charm and sexiness made every girl fall for him, only to be broken by his ways. He was never truly in love with any girl yet...but I still craved him every time.

   Even though he was a playboy, I still never backed out. I had fell for him and I fell hard.

   One day without his perky dimples made me sad. One day without his green eyes left me torn. One day without his curly locks left me missing very single inch of him.

   To be honest, I'm not quite sure how I even survived this summer without strangling myself. Well I guess I can say thanks to Instagram for keeping me out of my depression. His account was the first thing I visited when I first got the app. I was so hungry for a look of him. Yeah he posted a lot of weird stuff sometimes , but what really got me was his voice.

   His voice was indescribable. Something so smooth and soft, it sounded like he had the voice of an angel. Now I may be exaggerating a tiny bit, but you would probably agree with me if you heard him.

   A loud noise interrupted my daydreaming, which happened to be my phone. Shoot, I had completely forgotten about Jenna. I picked it up quickly, grabbing my backpack and my lunch.

   "Yeah?" I answered, knowing what she was going to yell at me for.

   "Get your butt out of your house young lady!" she playfully yelled at me.

"Gotcha" I answered into the phone. I quickly ended the call and bolted out the front door muttering a goodbye to my mom. I ran outside to see an annoyed Jenna in an old car in our driveway.

"Hey," I said while getting into the passenger seat. I turned to see her in a loose tee, ripped jeans, and white converse. Nice, I though to myself. I looked down at my white top and faded denim shorts, thinking I could try harder. Eh, whatever...

"Slow poke," she said, backing out of my driveway. "Whatever, we won't be too late, just late enough to miss Mr. Styles."

Blushing at the sound of his name, I asked her, "Sure, what's up wth you and Trevor? Can't wait for Tenna to actually come true!"

"Oh, so know you're shipping us?" She asked blushing. "I don't really mind it though," she quickly muttered.

Trevor has always had a crush on Jenna, but she had never noticed him. It was one-sided love for them. But then, Trevor kind of helped her froom some drama she was going through, and yeah she fell for him! It was so sweet, seeing two people together as a couple.

A few minutes later, we pulled into the student parking lot at the high school. Everyone was pouring in at this time, turns out we weren't that late. I took in a deep breath, giddy to see Harry.

"You ready?" I asked Jenna.

"Guess so," she responded. We both got out of her car and walked up the steps to the big building. Those steps were intimidating, making me think if I didn't pass this year, I would fall down all the way. I'd always been a pretty good student. Straight A's, good attendance, and healthy behaviors. Though, the past few years I've been struggling with so many things in the way. Too much homework, volleyball practice, and a certain person that stole my heart.

I focused back on to the stairs, preparing myself for the challenging year in front of me. Good thing, Jenna was in my first class. I probably would get lost through the east wing if it weren't for her (she had an older sister that helped her out a little). I walked up the last step to see a familiar face, Kate!

"Hey girl!" I shrieked as I pulled her in for a hug.

"Hey!" She said as she hugged me back. She then suddenly jumped back, and I knew what was coming next. We both looked each other in the eye and started doing this little funny dance that we had made up at camp last year, which was when we first met each other.

   "Oh my god," I said while laughing. I turned around to see a few people staring at both of us with expressions like, did they escape from a mental hospital? Eh, whatever. When my wild side escaped, there was no stopping it.

   I waved bye to Kate hugging her again and bound through the main doors with Jenna. She rolled her eyes at me and groaned, "Kacey, we're popular now. We can't act like immature kids anymore."

   "It fine! Everyone needs to let loose." I reassured her. Even though she was really cautious about not ruining her status, I understood her. She had gone through a lot of drama to get where she is. I was with her when she was getting teased about her body type. I was also with her when she basically starved herself to death.

   I turned my head slightly to look at her, when a tall boy with chocolate curls passed by.

   "Is that...Harry? Jenna asked.

   She smirked at me and gave me the funniest look ever. Something like, oooooo-someone-is-gonna-start-melting.
