My Mysterious Girl

The Plan

I speed over to Scarlett's house and I find him on the sofa making out with Scarlett. I grab him by his shirt and hold him against the wall.

"You fucking bastard." I growl.

"What? What? What's going on?" He asks.

"You fucking posted pictures of Zoe and me online. Amy saw them you ass!" I scream in his face.

"I was drunk and high. I didn't know." Alex says and puts his hands up. "You couldn't tell the difference between Zoe and your girlfriend. How am I supposed to have good judgement when you cheat on your girl?" He asks. I punch him square in the nose and I hear a crunch. Scarlett runs over and I walk out, slamming the door.

I get in my car and I just drive. I don't care where. I just keep on driving as it clears my mind. I play music to keep the thoughts in my head at bay. Eventually a familiar song comes on. It is one Amy sings a lot. I think it is called Little Do You Know or something. It is nice. I can literally hear Amy sing "I'll love you until the sun dies."

The remembrance of Amy's love forms tears in my eyes. I pull over and weep into my arms. I get out of my car and decide to get some fresh air and I walk down the road.

I get tired so I peel my eyes off the ground and I look up. I wipe my eyes and look across the road. I frown, is this Amy's dad's house?

I wipe my eyes more and fully recognise the house, Amy's room has a light on, is she here?

I walk across the road and walk across the gravel. I take a deep breath and knock on the door.

It takes a while for me to hear anything. I turn away but I soon hear the door unlock.

"Yes?" Amy asks as she opens the door. When she sees me she instantly tries to close the door but I put my foot in the way. "Go away." Amy growls as tears roll down her face.

"No. Listen to me." I say.

"Nothing you will say can change what you did." She spits.

"No, it won't but it will help. Both of us." I say. She sighs.

"Amy! Who is this?" A little boy asks. I recognise him from one of the pictures I saw last time.

"Henry, this is Harry. My ex-boyfriend." Amy says as she picks up the little boy.

"I don't like him. You are my girlfriend now." Henry says and he sticks out his tongue. I smile awkwardly.

"Henry, can I talk to your girlfriend for two minutes please?" I ask.

"If it is ok with her." Henry says and looks at Amy as he wipes her tears away. Amy sighs.

"Fine." She says and puts Henry down. "Go play in your room and I'll be up soon, this won't take long." She adds and Henry runs off.

"Amy, I don't know what happened last night. Alex gave me some weird drink then gave me a weed brownie thinking it was a normal one. Then I spiralled. I heard a familiar voice and thought it was you. I remember kissing someone but nothing after that, I swear." I say.

"Even if that is all you did you kissed someone else." Amy says. "You got high, you got drunk and you fucking cheated." She says and bends down so she is resting on her ankles as he cries. I bend down, crying now too.

"Amy. I am so sorry." I say and hold her, surprisingly she lets me. She leans into me and I rock her.

"Last time this happened I hated him. That's the thing. I still love you. I can't stop. But I want to." She says. I shush her and she calms down. Slowly she stands and I follow.

"I'm so sorry." I say as I put my hand in the back of her hair.

"I fucking hate you." She laughs. "But I can't stop loving your stupid perfect face." She says. I chuckle.

"Please forgive me." I say. She shakes her head.

"I don't know what I am forgiving. Hell I don't think I really know you if that is how you are drunk and high." Amy says.

"I am me when I am with you." I say and look into her eyes. "I need you so I can be me." I say.

"I'm sorry Harry." She says and grabs the door. Before she starts to close it I pull her closer to me and I kiss her. At first there is resistance but she soon kisses back lightly.

"Please." I beg.

"I'm sorry Harry." She says and closes the door. I slide down the door and Sit there weeping for about twenty minutes until I manage to get up and go to my car. I grab my phone and call my Grandma.

"Hello?" She asks.

"Maw-Maw?" I ask.

"Ah Harry, how are you my dear?" She asks. I break down and tell her the whole story. From the moment I met her until now. She sits there silent listening.

"So that's it Maw-Maw. I messed up bad." I say and wipe my eyes.

"Firstly, how dare you get drunk and high? I raised you much better than that boy." She says and sighs. "I say find out what happened last night. Tell Amy then do something nice for her. Win her back." She says, I hear the happiness in her voice. She used to be a romance novelist, of course she loves this.

I drive back to my place and lay on the sofa, digging through the little I remember. The only other thing I remember is what I think is a bathroom. It just confuses me more. I get angry but calm just as there is a knock at the door.

"Yeah?" I ask as I open the door. Ales stands there with a white plastic thing on his nose. "Alex, I'm sorry." I say when I see him. He smiles and shakes his head.

"I deserved it. I was trying to be a dick, I wanted to impress Scar." He says and shrugs. "Bro's before hoe's" He says. I nod and smile.

"So, why are you here?" I ask.

"To offer you something." He says and smirks. This means trouble.
