HOPE (1D FANFIC)

Chapter 9:

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Harry's P.O.V

I was so glad Andrea said yes. I mean I don't know why she wouldn't I am very dashing.:)

As I plopped down on my bed I felt my phone vibrating in my pocket.

Crud.

As I looked down to see who it was I say that it was my ex girlfriend, Taylor, asking me if I wanted to meet her at a club tonight.

'No thanks.' I responded. 'I know I have already told you this, but I'm not into you anymore Taylor. Oh you know, after you dumped me. Plus I have a new girlfriend now.'

'Oh.:( Do you really!? What's her name? Is she pretty?' I don't know why she was asking me all these questions. Was she jealous? Well even if she was I was not going to get distracted again.

'Her name is Andrea. Yes she is pretty. Why do you need to know?' I finally decided was the nicest route to take.

She didn't respond after that. I hope she isn't mad. Why do I even care? I shouldn't care.

As I walked up to Andrea's door step wearing jeans and a flannel shirt I paused. Maybe I had underdone it. Well it was too late now. I was already ringing the door bell.

Andrea greeted me and although she was trying to hide it, I could catch a glimpse of a drunk woman behind her. Her mom? Sister? Why didn't she ever tell me! Well we had just met but this is a big deal!

"Hi." She said breaking our awkward silence.

I took a second before responding to take in her figure. She was wearing Uggs, classic. And a light purple, long sleeved top covered by a dark jean jacket, and a dark grayish color of leggings.

"Hey. Are you ready." I quickly said after identifying her choice of wardrobe.

"Yup." I let out a deep breath I had been holding in.

I waited until we were in the car to ask her about what I had seen.

"So umm I saw your uh mom I think." I said immediately regretting it.

She bursted out crying. I was too stunned to say anything. I hadn't meant to offend her. After a minute she had calmed down.

"I'm sorry." She said.

"No I'm sorry." I really meant it too. "You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."

"No it's okay." She assured me. Then sniffed. "The last few weeks have been really hard on me because we had just moved in and all and then my parents had this big fight after my dad lost his job and now my mom comes home completely depressed after work and drinks her way to sleep." She started tearing up again.

"Oh I'm so sorry Andrea."

"No don't be, it's not your fault at all."

After a few minutes of just me driving she asked, "where are you taking me anyway?"

Just as she said that I pulled into the parking lot of the movie theater. "Does this answer your question?" I asked. She smiled.

"What movie do you want to see?" I pointed to a list on the wall as we got in line to buy the tickets.

"How about 'Endless Love'?"

"Sounds like a plan!"

I bought us the tickets and some popcorn and then we left to go find our seats.

During the movie I could tell that she was really into it, but I wasn't paying the least amount of attention. I wasn't that I wasn't interested, I was watching her the whole time. Her beautiful face glowing with the light of the running projection. Her knees shake at the same time her lips quivered. Even made sure that our hands touched every time she reached for more popcorn. In the last five minutes I was bursting with joy when she reached for my hand and slid hers into place.

We exited the movie theater hands in twine. She only let go at the last second before we slid on to our separate seats in my car.

On the way to drop her off there wasn't much talking between us.

But when we got out of the car to say goodbye, I did something that surprised me, and her. I kissed her. At first she pulled back but then had second thoughts and leaned in again. I felt good. Really good.
