New Boy || [ Harry Styles au ] ✔️

03

"So I'm not the only one who feels suffocated by Zara and Harry's sexual tension right?" Noah casually questioned as my eyes widened. It was now lunch break, which meant I had to tolerate a grumpy Zayn and a flirty Harry for about 4 classes.

Louis choked on his fry and Zayn spit out his water back into the bottle. "What tension? There's no tension." Zayn insisted, convincing himself more than anyone.

"Zayn, come on, he's a nice guy. You shouldn't be rude to him." Noah tried.

"When did I say he's a bad guy? And I'm not rude to him." Zayn stated, nodding to himself.

"Hey, you guys mind if I sit here?" Harry's voice cut in, pointing to the seat beside me.

"Yes." Zayn instantly answered.

I sighed, "What he meant was, yes you can sit here."

Harry sat down with a smug smile on his face. Zayn pulled a face before looking down at his food.

"Boys." Noah rolled her eyes.

School had passed by quite smoothly. Harry and I have a lot of classes together which turned out to be in my favour because I got to know him way better.

But as soon as I reached the parking, I realised I had a moody Zayn to deal with. I saw my brother leaning against our car, looking around. I took long steps until I finally reached him.

"Hey Z, ready to go?"

No answer.

"Zayn."

Still no answer.

"I can go ask Harry for a —"

"Just get in the car." Zayn groaned, making his way to the driver's seat. With a triumphant grin on my face, I quickly got in.

The drive home seemed lengthy. Zayn was busy pointing out all of Harry's 'flaws' (He's such a fūckboy, can't you see he wants to get in your pants) to which I very much had the urge to answer with 'well yes bītch I'd let him into my pants whenever, the fūck'

Then I had to wait till he calmed down, and I explained that I genuinely liked Harry, and he was nice to me. But I also told him that Harry and I just met today, and we aren't rushing things— whatever it took to make him understand, really.

"Mum, we're home!" I shouted, as soon we entered our house. Zayn dropped the keys to their usual spot, before he made his way upstairs to his room.

I made a quick stop in my room to drop off my bag and change into some black leggings and a maroon t-shirt. I swept my hair up into a ponytail with some lose hairs on the side before heading back down again. I came across my mum in the kitchen.

"Where are you going sweetheart?" She questioned, going back into her cooking.

"Taking Chester out for a walk. Won't be long mum." I gave her a kiss on the cheek, and then fetched the golden retriever from the backyard. After showering Chester with kisses and hugs, I decided to be productive and take her to the park.

I kept ahold of her leash and was checking Instagram, when all of a sudden she started barking and pulled out of my grasp. Her leash was trailing behind her, as she ran. I quickly put my phone in my pocket and started running after her.

"Chester! Stop girl!" I called out, hoping she didn't get lost. Chester was mine and Zayn's baby, I wouldn't forgive myself if something happened to her.

I walked for another minute, when I saw Chester cuddled up to an Australian Shepherd dog..

"What in God's name." I mumbled, walking closer to them. I reached for my dog, slightly pulling her back and was growled at by the Australian Shepherd. Chester growled back at the dog for coming at me and for once I was proud to be her mom.

"Is that retriever yours?" The same raspy voice drawled out and I froze in my spot.

Why is the universe so against me? It's like everyone wants me to get laid...
