“I felt empty. As if something had just interfered with the way I breathe, the way I was able to enjoy myself and have fun, the way I laughed at anything and everything, as if I just couldn’t anymore. Well that’s because… I couldn’t. The way I looked at her. I wanted to just scream and do anything I could to get her out of my life. Was it out of pure anger? Bitterness? Or was it just the fact that she was my mother, and that was the most I could do.”
Present
-SAVANNAH’S POV-
“Savannah! Get your stuff we’re leaving!” my dad yells from down the stairs.
“I’ll be there in a minute!”
I stood there intently debating whether I should call her and ask how she’s doing or if I should keep the distance. ‘Hey mom I got into the college I always said I would get into to. Are you proud? It’s moving day!’ or if that was too forward because I haven’t seen or talked to her in 5 years. I ignored her calls, her emails, her texts, everything. Luckily I had my best friends by my side, they’re what kept me together all this time, and my dad of course. I’m not sure if it was out of pure luck or it just happened. The three of us were going to the same college.
I ran down the stairs with my bags and boxes already in the car. I see my dad waiting there, wearing a University of Delaware sweatshirt.
-HARRY’S POV-
The only thought that was running through my head was ‘they’re trying to get rid of me’. I knew that wasn’t the case. My mom was crying her eyes out. I sat there waiting for my flight to be called. I was attending university in America. Why? I don’t know. Maybe I just wanted to get away from here.
-SAVANNAH’S POV-
Today is the first moving day. Students from different areas have a few days to decide when they wanna show up.
“Savannah!”
I heard my name being called from a distance. It was Kristina and Dylan. We exchanged hugs like the cliché group of friends do after not seeing each other for a day.
“We’re here!” Kristina says
“I can’t believe after all the talk of going to college together, it’s actually happening.” Dylan said, unable to contain his excitement.
“It’s getting late.” I said “Me and Kristina are gonna go to our dorm”
We exchanged goodbyes and were on our way to our building. We had already set up our stuff earlier so we just decided to hop straight into bed.
-THE NEXT MORNING-
I open my eyes and see Kristina staring at me eating a bagel.
“Good you’re awake. I have some news.” She said with a mysterious smirk on her face. “I went to the café to get us some breakfast and I accidentally bump into the hottest human being I have ever seen in my entire life oh my god you’ll pass out when you see him.”
“Wha-” I tried to speak but with her excitement, it seemed impossible.
“Oh I almost forgot the best part. He’s from England! I know you haven’t seen him yet but I call dibs.”
“Dibs, Kristina? We’re in college. And anyway I don’t really care for guys right now, I’m just glad to be here so sure, you can have him.”
-HARRY’S POV-
I awkwardly walk into my dorm, with the extreme curiosity of who my roommate will be. Is it gonna be some nerd, some badass who thinks he’s above me, maybe even a frat. Either way I wasn’t that excited to be here. I walk into the room with the door already open.
“Hello?” I said.
This tall skinny guy walks out from behind the door scaring the living shit right out of my ass.
“Hey there” he says
“Holy piece of shit you scared the crap out of me”
“Sorry, my name is Luke, Luke Heardgraves.”
This guy seemed oddly proper.
“I’m Harry, Harry Styles.”
“Is that an accent I hear? Where are you from?”
“England.”
“Ahh nice, I’m from Washington.”
I nod my head and look around the room. This is it? It’s quite small.
“Alright nice meeting you, I’m gonna go for a walk around campus.”
-SAVANNAH'S POV-
“Kristina I’m gonna check out the stores and shit I’ll be back in a couple of hours”
“Okay have fun I guess.”
I walked out of the room and walked down the hall glancing into everyone’s room.
………………………………
The campus here is fuckin huge, I was enjoying just walking around. I kept walking forward while looking behind me. I felt myself bump into somebody.
“Ah fuck” The guy said
I looked over and saw this tall guy with dark brown hair kneeling down picking up all his books that I knocked over.
“I’m so sorry, I- I wasn’t looking I’m sorry.” I bent down and helped pick up this guy’s stuff.
“Yeah okay, it’s fine” He says with an attitude.
“It doesn’t sound fine with the tone of your voice.” He had an English accent. I stared right into his green eyes.
“Is that supposed to mean something?”
“I’m just saying, I helped you pick up your crap and you’re giving me this shitty attitude.”
“Maybe because you were the one that carelessly bumped into me and knocked my books out.”
“Excuse me. It was an accident and you’re lucky I apologized you asshole. Have a shit day.” I bumped into him purposely and kept walking.
