Misunderstood

Chapter 5.

His lips were still moving with mines, the kiss was so gentle, but then our kiss deepened. I felt electricity running through my veins, I knew where this was heading but it had to stop. I pulled away from the kiss.

"What's wrong?" He said worried.

"Nothing, well no everything. This isn't right... I was caught in the moment and this was a mistake. I'm sorry, I didn't know what I was doing.." But I did, I knew exactly what I was doing. I wanted to kiss this beautiful human being that is sitting right in front of me.

"What? If anything we both went in for the kiss. We both wanted to kiss.."

I paused, looking the other way.

"I'm sorry.."

"Stop apologizing for something that you wanted. Alex, trust me."

"How can I? I barely met you this week. You expect me to trust you right away? I don't think so."

"Okay, I see your point.. But you're going to have to trust someone either way. That's what life is about.. Well no I take that back, there's more to life and you're not letting yourself live it." He was serious.

"You know more about life than me huh?"

"Oh there's much more to know Alex."

"I guess there is. Hey I think i should get home, it's getting pretty late and I don't want to worry my dad."

"Yeah let's go ahead and take you home then."

We walked out of his house and we made our way to his car. He opened the door for me, what a gentleman. The whole car ride home it was awkward silence. When we reached my house, he asked for my number and I gave it to him.

"Well I finally got a girl's number!"

"Ha ha, you're very funny."

"Remember sense of humor Alex."

"Yeah I understood the first time." I rolled my eyes.

"Well I'll text you about tomorrow." He said winking at me.

"Wait what do you mean?"

"We have plans tomorrow. I think you'll like tomorrow's agenda." He had a big grin on his face.

"Uh okay."

I walked up the stairs as he drove away. 3 minutes later, I received a text from an unknown number.

'Hey there, can't wait for tomorrow (; H xx'

I caught myself smiling like an idiot. I later responded.

'Same here, nice sign off. See you tomorrow.'

I didn't know what to feel at the moment. But I knew that it was late and I had to go to sleep.

------------

I woke up the next morning, and I checked my phone. I had two text messages from Harry saying that he was expecting me to be ready in 20 minutes. I went ahead and took a shower and gathered my clothes for an interesting day.

Harry was already downstairs waiting in his car.

"Hey look who decided to look beautiful today, well everyday you do."

"Um, I wouldn't exactly call myself beautiful."

"Perhaps you wouldn't but I am, so your argument is invalid."

"But--"

"Nope! I'm not hearing it!"

"Oh my god fine, what are we doing today?"

"You'll see."

I couldn't stand that he would leave me hanging like that but he wouldn't answer any of my questions. I was very impatient but of course he didn't care about that.

"Here we are!"

I looked around and saw that it was a bowling alley. I really suck at bowling.

"We're going bowling?"

"Well yeah, you have a problem?"

"No, it's fine." I said smiling.

"Okay then, let's go shall we?"

We both got out of the car and walked into the bowling alley. Harry walked over to the counter to pay for the lane and he had our bowling shoes in his hand. Most of the time I didn't make any strikes, the ball didn't even hit the pins. But Harry showed off because he was winning the game and I was a little pissed about that.

"Alex you want me to show you?"

"Sure."

"Okay so this is how you roll the ball."

He stood behind me, with his cheek against mine, his arms grabbing mine. We were too close to each other. He moved my arms throwing the ball and before I knew it I had a strike! I found myself jumping up and down like a five year old would do whenever he got a new toy. I turned around seeing Harry smile at me, I could feel my cheeks heat up when I saw his smile. I had this weird feeling in my stomach when I looked into his eyes, it was indescribable, like nothing else existed, only him and I were in the room. Harry gave me a hug and lifted me up, spinning me around as I grabbed on to him tight. It was the best feeling ever. He put me down and looked down into my eyes, I really hate that. I hate to make eye contact with other people. I put my head down looking at my shoes. But I felt his hand cup my chin to look at him. We stared into each other's eyes once again and I had that feeling that nothing else mattered, only him and I. Then he reached down and kissed me, grabbing my waist. I couldn't help but smile during the kiss. I felt happy for once, I didn't feel worthless. And whenever I was with Harry, it felt like nothing else mattered.
