Purposely Perfect

Chapter 3

(the next day)

(Harry's POV)

Great, Social Studies. I walked into the classroom and sat down next to Nicole. She looked beautiful, as always.

"Hi Harry."

"Hi Nicole! You been alright since yesterday?"

"ya, great actually."

Then we got interrupted by stupid Ms, Underwood.

"Alright class we are starting a unit on Greek Mythology. And I will be pairing you with somebody, and you will work on the assignment together over the weekend. The assignment requires an essay and a project."

"Oh yay." I mumbled under my breath.

"Nicole and Harry, you will be doing your assignment on Zeus, Posideon, and Hades."

I smile to myself when I hear out names being called.

"Talk amongst yourselves to see who's house you go to."

"Do you want to go to my house?" she asked me. This just keeps getting better and better.

"Ya, that would be great. When do you want me to come over?"

"On Saturday, at, lets say.... 3:00."

"Alright, it's a date."

"No, Harry, I...

I interrupted her before she could finish.

"I was just kidding Nicole."

"Oh, right." she said while blushing. She is so cute.

After class I ran to Louis.

"Louis! Louis! Guess what!"

"Oh my god what!"

"I got paired with Nicole to do some shit in social studies, and she asked me if I wanted to go to her house on Saturday and work on it with her!"

"Thats great man! But remember, baby steps."

"right, right baby steps."

(Saturday at 2:40)

(Harry's POV)

I got here around 2:30 and I'm just waiting until 3:00 to go knock on her door. I was wondering how this would go. Would I mess up and ruin everything? What if her dad was home? what if he tried hitting her in front of me? I can't beat up her dad! What if her older brother Liam is home. He's a real nice guy, but he is really protective of her. I remember last year he got accused of something someone else did and got in huge trouble and lost his scholarship to Yale. That poor kid. I'm not sure if he ever found another college. But he's like a genius. I looked at the little clock in my car and it said 2:59. Might as well walk up there now. After I knocked, I heard her walking towards the door and then she opened it.

"Hey Harry! Come on in!"

So I stepped inside, her house looked like any other house. The walls were white and her carpet was a very light brown, she had white couches, and a flat screen TV, but she had a huge kitchen. She led me into the living room, where I saw Liam sitting in an individual black chair.

"Liam can you go to your room or something?"

Completely ignoring Nicole, he walks over to me.

"Hi, I'm Liam, and you are Harry?

"Yep." I said popping the "p".

"You better watch it, you won't know when I'm watching." he said glaring at me. I was very uncomfortable, so I just looked at Nicole for help. I guess she got the hint, so she said,
