Jenni's POV

*2 Months Later*

"Harry I dont think you're supposed to cook them that long", I said.

We were currently over at Harry's house, trying to bake cookies. We've been constantly going over to eachother's houses lately, I guess you can say we've became really close friends. Yes, my feelings for him have grown wayyyyyy stronger. But, I'll just have to deal with it because I'm pretty sure he only sees me as a close friend.

But we've been hanging out at his house all day nad we got bored, so we decided to make cookies. Well, Harry insisted that he should make the cookies, since I'm always giving him greif about his bad cooking skills. But, I have been teaching him a few recepies and I have to say he's getting a bit better. Which is why I originally trusted him to make the cookies, but now I have second thoughts as I smell something burning.

"Harry, it literally smells like burnt cookies in here", just as I said that the fire alarm went off and started beeping loud throughout the house. Harry ran over to the stove and opened it. When he did, a bunch of black smoke came out. I was currently hitting the alarm with a broom, or trying to.

"Harry I'm too short to reach the alarm!" I yelled over the loud noise.

He ran over to stop the alarm, which luckily he did. It's times like these I wish I wasn't only 5'1. He whacked it a few times and the alarm finally stopped. The cookies were steaming from the counter and the whole house was silent. We both suddenly started laughing. We laughed for a good five minutes until the room fell silent.

"So, you want a cookie?" Harry asked.
"Um, not really", I said.
"But I made them just for you! Pleeaaassseee", he exageratted.
"Believe me they look great but I'm just not hungry right now", I lied.
"You liar", he smiled.

He ended up forcing me to try one and at first I could have sworn I broke one of my teeth on them. I didn't feel as bad when he spit his out too.

"You're right, these do taste awful. Hey let's do something fun, what about..karaoke?" he asked with a cheeky grin.
"I don't know, i mean I haven't sang in such a long-"
"Come on, it'll be fun" he said dragging me into his living room.

Oh god, I haven't actually sang in what feels like forever. Yeah, I've had people tell me before that I have a good voice. But I don't know, I just don't want to sing around Harry. But, it looks like I have not choice. He handed me a microphone and pressed play on the machine. Well, here goes nothing. A familiar melody played through the speakers when Harry began to sing.

Give me love like her,
'Cause lately I've been waking up alone,
Paint splattered teardops on my shirt,
Told I'd let them go,

And that I'll fight my corner,
Maybe tonight I'll call ya,
After my blood turns into alcohal,
No I just wanna hold ya,

Then we both started to sing.

Give a little time to me or burn this out,
We'll play hide and seek to turn this around,
All I want is the taste that your lips allow,
My, my, my, my, oh give me love (x4)

Then, I started singing.

Give me love like never before,
'Cause lately I've been craving more,
And it's been a while but I still feel the same,
Maybe I should let you go,

You know I'll fight my corner,
And that tonight I'll call ya,
After my blood is drowning in alcohal,
No I just wanna hold ya

He looked at me in amazment. His eyes were intently on mine as we both sang the chorus.

Give a little time to me or burn this out,
We'll play hide and seek to turn this around,
All I want is the taste that your lips allow,
My, my, my, my, oh give me love (x4)

I watched him as he slowly walked closer to me, I was confused as to what was going on. His eyes were filled with...passion?

"You have a beautiful voice", he said leaning in. Was he going to kiss me?

I quickly backed away and it looked as if he snapped back into reality.

"Uhh, I have to go" I said quickly walking out the door. I looked back to find him staring at the doorway.

I quickly walked over to my house and made my way up to my bedroom. I sighed heavily when I closed the door. I was in shock. Harry tried to kiss me? I just couldn't believe it really, I mean were friends. I'm starting to wonder if I made a wrong move there. I mean, I have liked Harry literally since the day we first met. And a couple months ago when we went out to dinner it was pretty romantic. But I just never thought Harry would like me in that way. If I'd let him kiss me, our friendship would be gone and things might be awkward. But now, things will probably be even more awkward because I basically ran out like a little girl when he tried to kiss me.

I don't blame him if he didn't want to talk to me anymore. I mean, I wouldn't either after what I just did.

Harry's POV

I'm so stupid. I should have known not to kiss me. I've basically ruined my only friendship I even have throughout everybody in this whole town. I know Jenni only thinks of me as a friend and nothing more, but I coudn't help it. The way she was singing to me, she sounded and looked so beautiful I just had to.

But, now I pay the consequence. I really want to go over and apologize, but its way too soon. Why do I have to let my feelings get to me?

I don't blame her if she didn't want to talk to me anymore. I mean, I wouldn't either after what I just did.
