Chapter 23

Ella's POV

After less than a minutes walk, I arrived at the door to the classroom that everyone else was situated in. I had thought whilst walking towards the room whether there was a possibility of me turning back and just not going back into the classroom. However I knew that I had to go back, and had continued the walk towards the room

Harry's POV

The way Ella had almost sprinted out of the room made me realise what I had done, and instantly put a smile on my face knowing the reaction my actions had caused her. I could tell that at fort she hadn't known what to do as I had seen her eyes widen, glance around the classroom to see that no one had turned, then looked down at her leg and back up at me before quickly shoving it away, only for my hand to then be replaced back into it's previous place. At that point she must have feel uncomfortable as she had run out of the room.

Whilst she was out at the toilet, I smiled to myself at the luck of being at next to her and all the things I could say to her.

Ella's POV

Gathering all the courage I had, I knocked on the door and pulled it open, to be met with the teachers and rest of the classes eyes. I'm not going to lie it felt rather uncomfortable with all these people staring at me in this way, so as quick as I could I rushed back to my seat, however as I did so I felt hot breath on my neck and remember the figure that was situated behind me and sighed.

"You were a long time in the toilets" he whispered under his breath, whilst tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear, so that no one could hear him apart from me.

"Well the toilets were quite a way away and I wasn't too bothered about rushing back to class so I took my time during the walk back to class." I softly replied, whilst trying to come up with something believable as it rolled off my tongue.

"I almost thought for a minute that you were avoiding me for the lesson and we couldn't have that now could we..?" he whispered again.

"Err-umm" I said whilst pondering for a sentence in reply to his question.

"That what I thought" he replied. After his short sentence he gave another short squeeze on my thigh which startled me, which caused him to smirk, before picking up his pen and copying down the work from the bored which had completely gone unnoticed to me.

Looking down at my page, I suddenly realised I hadn't done anything apart from write the date in my book and began to quickly see that I didn't understand anything on the board in front of me.

"Ella, come and let me see what you've done today in class,"the teacher called from the front of the room.

"Shit!" I thought as I began walking towards the teacher and handed my book over. She slowly scanned the page, and before she could say anything I quickly butted in and said "don't worry, I'll copy off my friend" to which she smiled and nodded before muttering something about you better.

As I walked back to my seat I quickly asked Niall if he could go trough the work with me tonight, but after he had told me he was really sorry and couldn't, I had no excuse but to somehow get my work done and the least person I wanted to help me then tapped me on the shoulder.
