Fix You - Harry Styles Sister Fanfic

Chapter Fifteen

“Ellie? What’s wrong? Are you still there? Ellie?”

I sat there in horror as Shawn fired questions at me, at an alarmingly fast pace. I didn’t know what to do, or say, so I just stared at my phone. Finally though, I snapped out of my trance and answered him.

“Uh y-yeah, I’m okay.” I replied, finally, to Shawn and he sighed.

“Ellie I know you’re not fine, what’s wrong?” he asked. Now it was my turn to sigh and then I looked towards my door to see it was open. I walked over and closed it so my mum won’t hear me.

“Its just that, I uhh got my umm, braces today. It sucks Shawn, like really badly.” I said and he chuckled. Shawn had braces to, but he got his off over a year ago.

“Oh well it gets better, it doesn’t hurt after a bit. I guarantee you, when you get up tomorrow morning you won’t even know you have them on.” He said, and I could only imagine the smile on his face when he said that.

“I hope so.” I said flopping down on my bed.

It was silent for a few minutes before he spoke up again.

“I don’t mean to sound rude, but why’d you call me? Wouldn’t you call Abby or someone else before me?” he asked.

I couldn’t help but laugh at myself; in my crying blur I had called him unintentionally. I don’t even think I had anyone in mind to call; I sort of just dialed a number.

“Yeah, I didn’t mean to call you, I just didn’t look at who I was calling before I sort of just dialed a number.”

In that moment though, my mind told me that I had wanted to call Harry but I pushed that back. I can't imagine how mad he would have been if I had called and interrupted time he’s spending with whomever. I’m sure I will find out what girl he was with tomorrow morning when I check twitter.

“Hey Ellie, I don’t mean to sound rude, again, but my mum’s calling me. I really want to go out with you again, so I’ll text you alright?” Shawn said, switching my thoughts back to the fact that I was still on the phone with him.

“Alright, and sorry.” I said feeling heat rise to my now tanned cheeks. Thank you Hawaii.

“Its okay, and I really hope that you feel better. Don’t worry, cause I know you are, you look great with braces.” He said, his charm making me smile.

“You haven’t seen me yet!” I remarked. He laughed, “I don’t need to, I know you will look beautiful, night.”

After that I hung up and went to look at my teeth in the mirror. I practiced my smiling for at least a half hour, trying to see how I would look. I must admit, I didn’t feel confident with my screwed up teeth so I can't wait until they are straight. If that means two years of metal and pain, then I guess I will have to do that.

When I went back in my room I had a message, and I immediately thought that it was Shawn.
