Harry's POV

"Why are we stopping at El's?" I ask as Lou pulls into Eleanor's driveway. "Something about Glee Club, she told me to call her later but I figured you're on the way to her house." I nod as we both got out of his car. 

Louis being Louis just walks right into Eleanor's house, her mum was in the kitchen and greeted us before we headed upstairs to Eleanor's room. 

"Do you hear another voice?" Louis asks me as we got closers to El's room "Yeah, did she say she had someone over?" he shook his head and knocked twice before opening the door.

"Stop callin, stop callin, I don't wanna think anymore, I left my hand and my heart on the dance floor," We walk in to find El and "Thena?" I say outloud and both their heads turn to the doorway.

"Louis! I thought you were calling later," El turns off her music "Surprise?" He grins slightly before Eleanor rolls her eyes.

"What are you doing here Thena?" I asked her again "Remember how I said I'd get help with Glee Club?" Eleanor looks at Louis "She's my help." Louis stares blankly at her then at Athena.

"She's right, we both talk and choreograph with each other. That way our clubs aren't doing the same songs, that'd be awkward," Athena says "Plus we get to hang out," El smiles.

"You're in Glee Club?" Louis asks Athena and she nods "President this year, you don't remember me from the choir off the past three years?" she laughs and he shrugs. "I don't pay attention."

"I joined this year," I added in "He's like a baby giraffe dancing." Louis adds making Athena giggle. "Rude." I pout "Awww Haz you know it's true," Louis coos pinching my cheeks and I swat his hands away. I didn't want to admit that he's right, but he definitely is.

"What are you doing for the choir off this year?" Louis asks Athena who smirks "That's confidential." "What's the choir off?" I ask and Eleanor turns to me "It's like the riff off from Pitch Perfect, but we didn't want to take their name for it so we created the choir off." "And it's not done through school," Athena adds "we do it kind of secretly, but each club comes up with a theme or artist and sings three songs from the theme or artist and people always come and watch and then they vote on what group did the best." She finishes with a smile "I'd also like to point out we've won two years in a row." Louis smirks "We're gonna kick a.ss this year Tomlinson, just you wait."

Athena's POV

"When is the choir off?" Harry asks as we all moved outside to Eleanor's backyard "This coming Saturday, there's drinking and obviously singing. It usually goes okay." I said sitting down "No fights ever break out?" he questions "The only football players from our school that are in Glee Club are Liam Payne and Niall Horan, and they're like the least aggressive guys you'll ever meet." I laugh 

"No Asher?" I shake my head "He did it the first year and wasn't a big fan of it, he tried it for my dad but he just wasn't interested." "Why your dad?" Louis asks "Her dad's teaches theater and music at the high school, right?" I nod "And coaches football, head coach."

"Benjamin Adkins is your dad? Like the Benjamin Adkins?" Harry gawks and I slowly nod "The one and only." "He's like super famous for football, he's like an idol." "So I've been told," I chuckle "he sticks to coaching now, he never went far with it." 

"Lou when do you play Moore?" El asks "Twice, home and away. Their homecoming game on the seventh of October and our senior night on the twenty-first of October." "Oh yay! I can't wait for football season," El turns to me "Are the little ones going to the games?" I nod "That's the plan, Caroline said she wants to try and go to every game with them if she can, cause of Ash and all."

I look over at Harry who was intently scrolling through his phone when Louis looks at him "Oi what are you looking at?" Harry doesn't respond so he grabs the phone. "Louis!" Louis starts to chuckle and throws his phone back at him "Dork." Harry mumbles something under his breath before setting his phone back down on his leg.

"Since you won't say what songs you're doing for the choir off, what ones are you doing the first day of school?" Louis asks me and Eleanor pops in "We can go watch! We start a day later than Moore, it's open to the public right?" "Yeah, it's first thing in the morning, you know where the auditorium is still right El?" she nods "There you go."

"Lou can we go?" Eleanor hops onto his lap "Pleeeeaseeee?" she makes a pouty face "Yeah sure, Haz you wanna tag along?" Our eyes direct to Harry as he looks at Louis then me "Yeah, yeah I'll go." he smiles and so do I. 

Eleanor is called inside by her mom and leaves me with the two boys. "What's your soccer schedule looking like?" Harry asks me "Not bad, we can win out most of the games. Gerald will definitely be our toughest game." "I remember El playing them last year, those girls are b.itches," Louis says and I nod. "They're extremely aggressive, and not the good kind."

"Hey guys!" El pops back out "Any of you want to stay for dinner?" "I have to get home, babysitting duties." I say getting up "Mum wants me home, something about Gemma leaving tomorrow for classes." she nods "Lou?" "I was Harry's ride El I should probably-" "You stay," I cut him off "I drove I can take Harry home." Harry looks at me then Louis who's grinning "Perfect! Thanks so much Thena."

I run upstairs and grab my stuff from Eleanor's room and meet Harry by the front door. We say goodbye to Eleanor and Louis before heading out to my car. 

"Jeep girl huh?" Harry chuckles getting to my car "She's my baby," I touch the hood "She?" I nod before getting in. 

I've always adored Jeeps, so when I finally saved up enough money to get one I was the happiest girl alive. I got a forest green 2013 Jeep, and I've never been happier. I turn my car on and Bon Iver immediately fills the car.

"Sorry," I turn it down "I like my music loud." "Bon Iver, good choice." he nods to the song and I turn it back up some again before pulling out of Eleanor's driveway.

"Fan of Bon Iver?" I ask Harry after he points me the way to go "Love him, he's got a lovely voice, and great songs." "I've been a fan for awhile, his songs help my baby sister get to sleep." I take a right turn "Baby sister?" I nod "Her name's Luna. This street?" he nods "The grey house."

I pull into the driveway and put it in park before looking at Harry. "Athena, Luna, such gorgeous names." I smile "I'm assuming Gemma is your sister?" he nods "Yeah she goes to Temple out in Philadelphia so she visits when she can." I unlock the doors for him.

"Harry?" he looks at me "What were you looking at on your phone that made Louis call you a dork?" His cheeks turn a slight pink "I was trying to find your soccer schedule, that way I had something to talk to you about." I smile 

"Is that weird?" he asks and I shake my head "It's very sweet Harry." 

"Well Thena," he hops out "thanks for the ride, next time it'll be a longer one." He grins and I laugh "Sounds good." "And honestly?" he grabs the car door "I can't wait to watch you sing Monday, it'll definitely be worth getting up earlier than nine." I laugh "Good to know."
