My Not So Ordinary Life

Chapter Twenty

"What the?" Harry interrupts.

I immediately stop kissing Austin. "Haven't you heard of knocking?" I ask him.

"Haven't you heard of being loyal to your best friend?"

I don't know why, but for some reason, I just smirk at him, and then right in front of Harry, I kiss Austin. We full on make out right in front of Harry. The guy I truly have feelings for.

Why I'm doing this? I'm not sure. I feel like being a rebel for once.

I hear my door close, and that's when I break off the kiss with Austin.

"Wow," he said.

"Thanks," is all I manage to say to him.

He leans in to kiss me again, but I turn my head the other way.

"What's wrong?" Austin asks me.

"Oh my god. What have I done? I just made a huge mistake."

"Excuse me?" Austin says.

I open my bedroom door. "I'm sorry, Austin. I don't know what got into me." And I go back downstairs.

"Harry, wait!" I shout at him.

He is putting on his jacket getting ready to open the door.

"What is there to wait for?"

Harry's face is really pale.

"Harry, please. You don't look so good."

"Good bye, Bella."

He slammed the door shut.

"Oh my god." I say out loud, mostly to myself.

I quickly put on my shoes and go outside. Harry was driving like a speed racer. I look up to find Austin staring at me through my window.

I look at the direction I last saw Harry's car and start sprinting. All of a sudden I am able to see his car again. I am sprinting faster than humanly possible to catch up to him. The next thing I know, I am next to Harry's car looking at him through the passenger window as he drives. He sees me and slams on the breaks.

"What the hell are you doing?" He asks me through his now rolled down window.

"Running."

He looked around and then said, "get in the car."

And so I did.

"Harry, I honestly don't know why I did that. I'm so sorry." I look at him to see what he has to say, but he doesn't say anything. "Harry. I was going to call you. But then someone else called and you said 'bye babe' and I didn't know what to do. And then Austin just showed up in my room unexpectedly. I don't know why I kissed him. God., if Emma found out. I screw up everything. I am so sorry."

"It's not me you should be saying sorry to."

He's right. I should call Emma right now and tell her what happened.

I sit in silence for a while as Harry drives.

He finally speaks. "Was it really me you were going to call?"

"Yeah," I look down at my lap feeling nervous and guilty.

"For the record, you don't screw up everything."

"Understatement."

"Bella, I mean it. If Niall hadn't called, or if I didn't say 'bye babe' to him or-"

"Woah, hold up! It was Niall you were talking to? Why didn't you tell me?"

"You didn't give me the chance, and then you stormed off to your room to make out with your best friend's mate."

"I don't even know what they are right now."

"Which is why I'm going to turn this car around, and you're going to go talk to her."

"Harry, that's a bad idea."

"You're just afraid of what might happen. You can do it. I'll be right next to you, if you want."

I sigh. "Fine."

We drive in silence until we get to Emma's house.

"Hey Bella?" Harry looks at me as he turns his car off. His face is turning pink. "I um, I have feelings for you too."

I feel my face heat up.

""Are you going to say anything?" He asks me after a moment.

I unbuckle, reach over my seat, and kiss him.

A moment later, we broke off our kiss and he nodded towards the front door.

"Will you come with me?"

"Of course," he says smiling.

Emma comes to the door after I knock. "Hey guys," she says. "Come on in."

"Emma," I say. "I really need to talk to you."

"Okay," she tries to smile.

"It's about Austin." I look at Harry. He nods and I take a deep breath. "Okay, here I go. I um. Austin?"

He shook his head no before Emma turned around.

"My morning wake up call," Emma said smiling and then she kissed him.

"They seem so happy," I whisper to Harry.

"Yeah, and he shook his head as if to say not to tell her," he whispers back.

"So, what were you saying, Bella?" Emma asks.

I look at Harry with a worried expression, then to Austin. He looks mad. "Um, just that, well, I think you two are so cute together. Austin, have you taken her on an official date yet?" I blurt out.

He chuckles and the says, well it was going to be a surprise, but since you had to ruin it," he now directed his attention towards Emma. "I was going to take you out to lunch and then I have something else in mind, as well."

"You two have fun with that," Harry says. "We should get going though. I have some plans of my own. See you later."

Harry opens the door to leave.

"Yeah, I have to go too. Bye."

"Bye," Emma says. Austin mouths 'Do not tell her.'

I close the door behind me, and Harry wraps his arms around me in a tight hug.

"You tried, that's what matters."

I sigh and say, "Did you see the way he was looking at me? He was giving me a death stare. I'm implying that as a threat."

"Yeah," Harry kisses me on the head. "He's definitely up to something."

"How do you know?"

"I just do. I have a feeling he's going to hurt Emma."

"We need to warn her, then."

"No. She'll ask more questions and it's possible for her to find out about you. We can't risk that."

"Harry, I don't want my best friend to get hurt."

"I understand that. And she wouldn't want you to be hurt either. Which is why we can't risk having the word get out."

I sigh. "Can we go do something?"

"Anything."

"Let's take a walk in the park," I suggest.

"I'll park my car at your place then."

"Sounds good," I say, and then get into his car.
