The Ultimate Revenge Story

Harry's POV

-------------------

"Oh just fuck off already Aiden." God, he was such a prick.

"Aww, c'mon Harry. Tell her again how much you love her."

"Aiden, I swear to fucking God, I am going to make you swallow your teeny weeny dick soon if you don't suck the fuck up." My blood was boiling, I could feel my temperature rising and I just knew that I had a crazed wild look in my eyes and my face would be flushed with a mix of embarrassment and anger. He wasn't meant to hear me tell her that I love her on the phone, or in person for that matter, no one was.

"Chill man, I'm just messing around. You were never this sensitive before, you got um... Pussy whipped." I was on my feet faster that I thought humanly possible and had taken a stepped towards him, prepared to swing, but he just ducked and chuckled loudly. "You make it too easy man, way too easy."

I shoved him away and sat back down on the small brick wall that surrounded his mothers house and he sat next to me once he'd picked himself up off their gravel driveway. The wall had crumbled as the years took their toll on it, and as we grew older and bigger, the wall grew smaller and eventually became the perfect sitting spot.

I had grown up with Aiden, he was my best mate. He lived two streets over from my mum's place and our mum's were best friends from the fucking Middle Ages. He was born at the same hospital, on the same day that I was, but he was born exactly 23 minutes earlier than I was, and he never let me forget it. He was such a dickhead when it came to age, but I was a lot stronger and bigger than him, and every time he mention our 'huge age gap' I walloped him over the back of the head, a move I had perfected over our 19 year friendship. I always managed to get the perfectly pitched 'smack' sound, a fact I was illogically proud of.

"So what's your plan? Isn't this girl... Catie? Is that her name?"

"It's Charlotte but she likes Charlie better. What's your point?" My patience was wearing thin with him. Honestly, I had been with Charlie for over ten years how did the asshole not know her name?

"Jesus Harry, is it that time of the month? What I was asking was isn't she going to yours for dinner tonight?" His tone was sarcastic and his words were clipped, but I knew better that to get pissed at him. He was right, I did make it too easy for him.

"Yeah, and?" He knew she came round to my place every Saturday for dinner, she had done for the last six years.

"Well, do you reckon tonight will be the night? For you two I mean?" I was still confused, and he could tell by the blank expression on my face. He rolled his eyes and let out a big sigh before saying, "Sex, Harry. Love making, sexual intercourse, coitus, getting your end away, getting off your rocks. Whatever you wanna call it. You've been together for over a decade. You're teenagers, and I know for a fact your horny. Yes, yes, don't give me that look I see your ability to make a tent in your pants better than any Girl Scout when we watch old episodes of Bay Watch. You're a strapping young lad and she is smoking hot..." He apologised after he saw my glare "All I'm saying is, how long can you stick with one chic. It's time to out the heat on man. I'm not saying force her, I think that's disgusting, I'm saying maybe its time to start putting those ideas in her head. Make her think it's her idea."

What? I mean sure, I did what to do THAT, I have for years, but she's not ready. I told her I'd wait, because I love her. That's the night I first said it, that I loved her, the night I said I'd wait. I hadn't meant to, but it just slipped out. She looked at me, shrugged and said, "I know." Like it was the most obvious thing in the world. She gripped my by the colour of my trench coat and pulled me on top of her, kissing me passionately...

"Shit. I'd better get going mate, I'll catch ya tomorrow, yeah?" I asked Aiden as I looked at my watch and jumped down from the wall.

"Yeah, yeah. Think about what I said." He replied, looking at me knowing full well that I was.

I was trudging down his driveway when I heard him call out, "Oh, and Harry. I know her name's Charlie."
