Stuck With You

Still

~13 

I could feel myself starting to wake up; even if I don't remember falling asleep. My eyes slowly blink taking everything in. Jack was texting away; is that all he does?

Turning my head I felt something brush my face; looking down. Harry's head was resting on my shoulder he was fast asleep. He looks peaceful. Wounding if I should walk him up or not I heard Jacks' voice fill the air.

"It all should work out." then he paused. "Yeah... I don't see any problems. As long as Harry stays in line."

My phone began to ring. Reaching for it Harry started to wake up. He smiled a sleepy smile.

"Hello?" I said answering my cell.

"Hi, darling. Where are you?" My mother's voice filled my ears.

"Um, there's something I need to tell you."

"Are you alright?"

"Yea mom..." I said.

I could feel Harry watching me. Turning I looked at him.

"I'm just going to say it but try not to freak out. I'll explain everything when I get home." The other end of the line was dead, so I knew she was waiting to hear what I have to say.

"I'm on my way to London." I said looking away from Harry.

"What?" She snapped at me.

"It's cool, I'm with my... boyfriend." I said looking back at Harry.

"But I thought..."

"I've been seeing someone for a few months now." I said.

Oh, how I hated to lie. I just hope that no one finds out the truth. If they did my whole family would know I lied to them. They'd hate me. I would hate me.

My mother didn't say anything.

"Is that why..."

I didn't want to talk about this in front of Harry but I didn't really have a choice. I needed to tell her.

"He wanted us to break up last year but he agreed to give us one more year but it wasn't working out I just couldn't tell you." my eyes burned with tears.

Even though we been over for almost a month it still stings. We were together for four years. It's going to take time; is all I keep saying to myself.

"Oh, honey..."

"But I'll be home in a few days I'm just..."

I felt my phone being pulled from my hands.

"Hello, I'm Harry. Nice to finally meet you." His deep thick British voice filled the air.

I tried to take the phone from him but he jumped out of his seat and took a few steps back. I reached for my phone again but he just stepped back. I couldn't hear what my mother was saying but Harry smiled.

"See it's our anniversary tomorrow and I finally got her to agree to meet my family."

"Yes, I see..." He turned to look away. "I'm looking forward to it as well." He stands there with his back still towards me. Wishing I knew what my mother was saying, more now than ever.

"Bye." Harry said then he turned handing me my phone.

I could say anything, I just looked at him.

"Wh...what..."

"You mother says she can't wait to meet me when we get back."

I didn't know what to say, still. I plopped myself into a seat. Harry sat next to me. Reaching his hand out he lifted up my head. My eyes burned, they wanted to cry so much. I hated this. I hated that I still felt like this.

He just looked at me. He didn't say a word. He didn't move his hand, he just looked at me. His lips open to speak but instead of Harry's voice, all I hear was Jack's voice.

"We'll be landing in five minutes."

I pulled my face away from Harry's hand. I clicked my seat-belt I could fell him watching me as we started to descent.
