Chapter 15 (Dinner gone wrong)

I pull myself away from Liam and lick my lips.

"Sorry, we didn't want to waste time, since you were late" I look at Liam and wink.

He seemed to be caught off guard at first but played along by winking back at me.

"What can I get you?" The pretty blonde waiter asks us.

Everyone orders grilled fish with lemon, which was the week's food.

Then there's me.

"Um... Which of these salads taste the best?" I ask the waiter who seems to be amused by my question.

"Greek-" the waiter tries to finish her sentence.

"You do know that seafood won't get you fat, Lilly" Harry spits.

"I know, I just don't like fish, I mean they are pretty and all but-"

"You won't eat fish because it's pretty?"He chuckles and shakes his head.

"I didn't mean it like that. I don't eat anything that lives under water" I glare at him.

"Oh, well then seafood restraunt was a smart choice"He adds sarcastly.

Now him, the waiter, Jessie and even Liam who tries to hold his laughter, are laughing at me.

I just stay quiet. He is an ass. To think I felt something fluttering in my stomach everytime I was around him.

They are all laughing and I can't take this anymore. Not just Harry, but the fact that I'm on a date with someone who I shouldn't be with.

"Well, this was a fun night." I stand up, wave a goodbye and leave. I know it's rude, but I can't take this anymore.

Liam tries to come after me but Harry gestures him to sit and follows me instead. "This was my fault, I'll fix it. You guys stay here." I hear him say to Liam and Jessie.

I walk in the rain and hope that it won't start pouring. I feel so weak, just the sight of seeing Harry with Jess kills me. I'm selfish and thinking about myself, but what can I do, to make this feeling stop. She's my bestfriend and Liam, I was just using him. I really have become the person, I despised years a go.

I was okay with just being like this, but then he had to come along and crash every wall I tried so hard to built around me. I guess this is what breaking feels like. I never thought a pain like this could exist.

I feel tears coming down on my cheeks. I hadn't shed a tear for a very long time, and now, I couldn't stop them coming.

I wipe my eyes as I feel warm arms around me. The arms that broke me but with just one touch, I feel the broken parts getting they way back together.

How is it humanly possible to feel this way about someone?

"Lilly" Harry whispers in my ear.

I don't react in any way.

"I'm really sorry, I was just teasing-..." He turns me around and catches one of my tears before it rolls down on my cheek." Are you crying?"

"Why are you crying? Did my words hurt that much, I'm really sorry,Lilly" he apologizes with a guilty look.

I can't seem to find words. I'm so ashamed of myself. This is the first time someone sees me crying, and the reason behind it, is that someone standing right in front of me, trying to comfort me.

"Don't say a word, just hug me tight" I say. It's all I need. A hug. It's not wrong is it?

Just a hug.

He smiles and brushes slightly my cheeks with his hand and wipes rest of the tears away. He hugs me tightly just like I begged him to.

I'm beginning to get attached to him.

If I could, I would take his smile and inject it directly into my blood stream. My parents warned me about drugs. I always thought they were in baggies, sold in the streets, never the ones with a warm smile and a heartbeat.

Harry is my drug, my pure heroin and I'm addicted.

Oddly, right now, I don't seem to mind.

"I know this isn't the right time, but.. Do you like... Have feelings for Liam?" he asks me while still holding me tight by my waist.

I look up to have better sight of him.. "I don't, I don't even know why accepted his request to go on a date with him" My words pours from my mouth, I'm being way too honest with him.

"Hmm" he looks at me with his beautiful eyes, I could get lost in them, never wanting to be found. " Rain seems to get us together, doesn't it?"He changes the subject.

"I hate rain" I murmur.

"I think, you look at it the wrong way, because rain is the perfect lullaby."

"Still, I don't like it" I answer back.

"Because you are afraid that thunder is followed by the rain, aren't you?" he chuckles and shakes his head.

"I'm assuming that everything's a joke to you?" I ask him and furrow my eyebrows.

He licks his adorable lips "not everything." He runs fingers through his curly hair that is damp from the rain.

"Oh, really, Like what?" I ask him with widen eyes, fluttering my eyelashes.

"... You"
