Where It All Began

Reality Check

Uma was walking to school when she suddenly felt a hand on her arm and next thing she knew she was being pressed against a wall.

"What the..." She asked confused as to who would dare ram her into a wall. She looked up and prepared to give the person an earful when she saw that it was Harry, she asked, "What are you doing, Harry?"

He put both arms beside her head and leaned in closer until his nose was only an inch away from her nose and said, "Giving my girlfriend a kiss of course."

Before she could ask, 'since when were they together?' his lips were on hers. Completely and utterly shocked she let him until her mind started functioning again. When it did she shoved him, "What the hell, do you think you're doing?!" she asked.

Harry, surprised she shoved him said, "What are you doing? You are acting like we haven't kissed before."

"We haven't!" Uma shouted at him, getting in his face.

"Are you okay, Love?" Harry asked as he stared into her eyes and rubbed his thumb against her bottom lip. "Our first kiss was two years ago, how can you forget?" Hurt appeared in his eyes.

"I don't know what you are talking about, Hook! Am I being pranked? Are you pranking me?" She shoved her finger into his chest accusingly.

"No Uma! You can ask anyone! We are the first successful couple on the Isle! Everyone knows you're mine and that I love you." Harry trailed his hand from her bottom lip to her hand, entwining their fingers.

Uma looked at their linked hands, bewildered at the fact that she didn't mind it. "Harry, I just don't understand. Just yesterday we decided to take over Mal's territory! How are we dating today?!"

Harry looked at her like she was losing her mind, "That happened years ago Uma." He set her free hand on his face and stared deeply into her eyes and scanned her features, "Are you sure you're okay? Did you hit your head or something? Because you are acting weird." He ran his fingers through her braids and pulled her closer to him. "Uma come on. You have to remember that, you took me up on that first date when I asked for the 300th time. Don't you?"

Hating to disappoint him, she said sadly, "Sorry, Harry, I really have no idea what you're talking about." She gave his hand a squeeze and smiled when he squeezed it back.

"Come on, I'll try to remind you," Harry winked and brought her hand to his face and kissed it. Uma felt a strange sensation in her stomach and nodded.

As Harry, led her to the place where they had their first date. Uma heard a ringing and asked, "Do you hear that?"

"Hear what?" Harry asked.

Uma blinked, when she opened her eyes she was in her room and her alarm clock was going on. Completely disoriented again she said, "A dream...that's what it was. That's all it was." SHe tried to convince herself as she remembered the feeling in her stomach when Harry kissed her hand. Shaking her head to get rid of the image, she turned off her alarm and got ready for school.

She opened her locker, when she felt a presence behind her. She turned and her heart skipped a beat. What was that? She thought.

"Hey Uma!" Harry smiled at her.

"Hey Harry." She mumbled, avoiding eye contact as she tried to move around him without touching him.

Noticing that Uma wouldn't look him in the eye he asked, "Are you alright?" He touched her arm to get her attention but Uma shrugged it off.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." She answered quickly as she walked quickly to her class.
