SEEKER

Chapter 10

"Harry"

I don't understand why he is here right now. I hope Andie didn't call him. What if she did? How?

I follow the curly lad in front of me after he shrugged my hand away. My mind tells me to leave him alone, but I'm not allowing it to happen. He shouldn't be seeing Andie now...

"Harry" I say for the second time. We are now in front of Andie's room. It's only a step away before she sees him.

"Liam," He finally faces me. He is smirking at the moment as if it's a way to hit my nerves. Well, you know what it's working.

"Since when did visiting Andie a bad thing?" He questions and I take a moment to think about my answer.

The air from the hallway seemed to alter as Harry crosses the threshold of Andie's room. I want to follow him, and watch Andie's reaction, but a pair of hand stops me from proceding my action.

"I thought you were leaving?" Niall asks, his voice irate at the moment.

Instead of answering my friend, I walk away and enter Andie's room. Amelia and Ms. Harris is still here, sitting down, admiring how Harry and Andie are conversing. I try to dodge my jealousy away by looking at Amelia, but my emotions are still there...

"Liam,?" Andie mutters, her voice soft, but it has come stronger since I left only fifteen minutes ago.

"I thought you---"

"I needed to speak to Amelia" I interrupt her.

Amelia stops what she's doing, and looks at me in bafflement. I can even feel Niall staring at me as if he wants to burn me with his stare. Why can't he just confess he likes Amelia?

"Wh-What?" She stutters.

My eyes widens for her to understand that I'm trying to find a way to terminate the awkwardness that is already hanging in the air.

"Never mind," I wave my hand, annoyed that Amelia can't get a damn clue on my signal. "What brings you here Harry?"

It's best to retreat the question rather than answering it. Besides, my curiosity is eating me alive. I want to know what brought him here.

"To visit a friend of mine" he answers before glancing back to Andie.

"Last time I check, Andie didn't consider you as a friend" I taunt.

My smile is now from ear to ear as if I've won life. I'm beyond aware that Andie doesn't like the idea, but a man has to do the job before her heart is once again broken into pieces.

"Liam" Niall grasps my forearm as I take a step closer towards Andie's bed.

I jerk his hand away before continuing what I started.

"I called him" Niall finally confess.

My heart hammers before my blood boils in annoyance and anger. Never did it cross to my mind that Niall would call this bastard. He knew how much Andie had suffered from Harry, and now he just calls him as if history has vanished.

"It was my idea" Amelia backs up her boyfriend.

Ms. Harris flinches as I raise my hand to scratch the back of my neck. I'm a bit offended that she thinks I would smack Niall? I would have if I was drunk and can't control my emotions, but right now I can control it. Besides, hitting Niall is not on my list.

"Andie?" I break the silence, and Harry peers at me as if I have acted the most embarrassing thing in the world.

"I didn't expect him to be here either," She looks away from me. "I still haven't forgot what you did Harry"
