UGH! | Matty Healy |

O N E

"HARRIET MATTHEWS?"

forcing a smile onto her face as she looked to the older man the girl nodded and he returned the smile holding his hand out for her to shake, she stared at the hand for what felt like forever pushing her blonde hair from her face before finally reaching for it.

"mister trench, headteacher of course." he said as harriet shook his hand nodding.

"it's a pleasure to meet you sir." she replied taking her hand away and putting it in her blazer pockets awkwardly.

soon they began to walk down the school hallway mr trench leading harriet to her first class him mainly talking about the school achievements while she just nodded like she was paying attention, inside she was dreading it.

she hates being back here after everything and she knew being back here meant facing him.

"here we are miss matthews, double English." the headteacher said opening a classroom door before ushering her to walk in.

walking in she felt all eyes were on her causing harriet to to flash an awkward smile at everyone taking her hands out of her pockets to adjust the bag on her shoulder before she looked to the at the teacher.

"class we have a new student her name is harriet matthews, please make her welcome as she has just moved here from london." Mister Trench told the class introducing harriet.

harriet desperately wanted to correct him and tell him she had grown up here but she kept quiet

"hello harriet i'm miss barnes, you can just take a seat next to mister healy at the back." The english teacher told her waving her instantly to the back.

at the sound of the name 'healy' harrier felt her gets stop as she looked to the back meeting eyes with him as he stared at her. cold faced.

all she did nod feeling as though all she had done since arriving at this school was nod. quickly she walked to the back and sat next to the boy not once looking at him.

without another word from mister french as he left class continued with miss barnes rambling on about poems while every teen in the class pretended to listen to her.

the boy next to harriet sighed loudly leaning back in his seat before looking at her raising an eyebrow as he leaned forward, he pushed her blonde hair from her face and finally she looked at him.

"so you're back." he whispered to her tucking her hair behind her ear.

harriet grabbed his hand pushing it away from her as she stared at him watching as he smirked at her chewing gum.

"i tried calling to tell you i was back." harriet finally replied back to him in a whisper "you never returned my calls."

"sorry?" he questioned with a laugh "you were the one who said you wanted nothing to do with me the last time i saw you."

"matty please, i didn't mean that." she whispered to him.

"well it felt like you did." he replied quickly.

they stared at each other for another moment before matty shook his head looking away to a boy at the table next to them beginning to talk to him.
