Hard To Get- Harry Styles Fan Fiction

Chapter 11

When the bell sounded for the end of the last lesson I was so glad the day was over. I had spent the whole day trying to avoid Harry. Which was unsuccessful. I bumped into him a few times but I didn't look directly at him because I know that if I locked eye contact with him I would melt. I really wanted to go home and take a nice relaxing shower.

When I arrived home I put the tv on and tried to do some Philosophy and Ethics homework but I couldn't get Harry out of my mind. All I could think about was how sad he looked when I blew him off for the second time in two days. I know I have a good reason but that doesn't lift the guilt that im now permanently carrying on my shoulders.

I was so bored. I decided to text Lou and see if she was free so we could hang out. I called Lou and she said she'll be over in five. Mum wasn't home so I was bored and alone but I thought it would be fine because Lou said she would only be five minutes.

Half and hour later Lou finally turned up. We decided we'd have a movie night so we started to watch my favourite film Bride Wars when there was knock at the door.

I hauled my self off the sofa and went to answer the door. I opened the door and there stood Harry.

"Hi, erm you said you felt ill so I bought you some paracetamol and some movies. I thought since you couldn't go out we could watch some movies together?" My heart melted but them instantly shattered when I realised that Harry was going to find out I had lied to him and he'd made all this effort for nothing.

"Erm, well you see Harrry..." I was cut off by Lou shouting me and coming up to the door.

"Soph who is it- oh hi Harry." Shit. Shit. Shit.

Harry looked crushed. He literally looked like he was going to cry there and then.

He blinked for a couple of seconds then threw the movies and medicine to the floor and stormed off to his car. I ran after him.

"Harry wait! I'm sor-"

"Enough Sophia!" He turned to face me. He looked as if he was crying. I just wanted to hug him, "enough I don't care anymore!" With that he got in his car and drove away.

I instantly broke down I'm tears. I felt like such a horrible person. I wasn't this person. I don't want to purposely hurt people. I never meant to make Harry upset. I just didn't want to be associated with the wrong crowd. I really liked Harry and I've now shattered any feelings he had towards me. But I suppose this is what I wanted. I wanted Harry to leave me alone but I also want him to like me. I'm so confused I don't know what I want!!

Suddenly I felt two warm arms wrap around me. I hugged Lou and cried into her shoulder. She rubbed circles on my back trying to make me feel better.

"Shh now. You did the right thing. You don't want to be with Harry anyway. He's not from a good crowd. Wipe those tears. You alway have Liam. Why don't you call him and go on another date. I'll do your make-up!"

I laughed at Lou she was so sweet and she was right I dint need Harry I had Liam. I nodded and got out my phone. I dialled Liam's number.

"Hello?"

"Hi Liam it's Sophia,"

"Oh hi Sophia!" His voice changed into a happy tone.

"I was wondering do you maybe want to go to dinner tonight or something?"

"Yeah sure that'll be great!"

"Ok see you in an hour?"

"Yeah sure bye!"

I hung up and looked at Lou. She was smiling from ear to ear.

"Right. Let's get you made up!"
