Numb (Harry Styles)

Chapter 8

''You might want to bring a blanket.'' says Harry. Why would I bring a blanket. Are we going to have a picnic. I want to ask him but I know he won't tell me. I quickly changed to a dark jeans and a oversize sweater with long sleeve. I can't let people know about my cut on my wrist. I made my hair into a messy bun and brought the blanket. 

''I'm ready.'' I'm not really ready at all. What if it turns out bad. I followed Harry down the hallway to the stairs and made our way to his car. The car looked like a 2014 Audi A3 Cabriolet. He must be one of the richest person I've known. The red color of the car was so beautiful. It did made me think of my blood that was all over the bathroom. I don't think I thanked Harry for cleaning that mess up but how do you thank him for cleaning up your blood.

''Are you done staring at the car and maybe get in.'' He said. I've embarrassed myself again infront of him. Why do I do this all the time. 

After a long 20 minutes of drive I finally decided to talk.

''We are we going? Are we there soon?'' I ask.

''Somewhere. Yeah, in about 10 minutes.'' He says while looking at the trafic.

''Can you give me a hint on where you are taking me?'' This was actually really creepy. He was never nice to me and now he takes me far away from school. What if he is like Jack, James and Daniel afterall, you do become like your friends after a long time. 

''How long have you known James, Jack, Daniel and Kat?'' I ask. I ignore his stare and look out of the window.

''Why do you ask?''

''Just wondering.''

''I meet them when I was about 17 years old in a friend's party.'' Oh, he is one of them.

''Are they the only friends you have?''

''No. I have four other friends too. We all just hang aroung eachother. Like a big group.'' Why did he sound irritated.

''Do you trust them?'' I ask. It hit me after I said the words loud what I did. Why did I ask that. He will think I'm a freak. He already knows I'm a freak.

''Mia are you okay?'' 

''I'm just nervous on where you're taking me.'' I said. Not really sure if that was a lie or not.

''Not to my friends.'' He spat and looked quite pissed.

''I'm sorry.''

''We are here.'' He said and turned of the car. He stopped and stared right in my eyes. I could feel him looking into my soul. It all suddenly felt weird. My heart raced and I felt weak. I shaked my thought away and got the belt off me. I stepped out of the car and looked around. All I saw was a restaurant called "Ricky's" in the middle of nowhere. I followed Harry in and sat infront of him on the table he choose.

"They only got pizzas, kebab and hamburgers." He broke the silence. He brought me here to eat with me on a resturang with nowhere to turn to if something happend. I guess he is trying.

"What are you going to eat?" I ask him.

"The biggest kebab pizza they got." I couldn't stop but smile at his reply.

"I'll just have a plate with kebab and fries.'' I say back. Harry got up and brought our food to the table.

"Thank you for this and for.. um.. today." I manage to say. He looked at me with a smirk. Why did I feel butterflies in my stomach. I can't fall for this like a weak girl I am. He is doing this on purpose. He knows I will like it.

"Yeah I guess you're welcome." He said. He was unsure about what to say, I could hear it in his voice. I need to change the atmosphere.

"Is this the only resturang close to school because it was a long way down here." I say.
