Confusion

Chapter 9

Sorry this took too long! I suck at keeping up

__________________________

Harry answered the phone after two rings. "Well that didn't take long." He laughed into the phone.

"Ya I know but I made up my mind." I sounded nervous, I could hear it in my own voice.

"Oh, you did. I understand. It was a long shot anyway" what is he talking about? Did he just assume I was going to say no?

"No Harry, I want to. Well I want to try" there was silence on the phone, like he was speechless.

"Really?" His voice cracked a little.

"Yes"

~~~~~~~(next day)

I called Brent but he didn't answer. I didn't want it to come to this but i had to leave a message.

"Uh hey Brent. I uh I had to tell you something. I really wanted to talk to you but I guess we can later? I met someone at college. We live far apart now and I think it just might be better if I try this out and you can meet new people. Ok bye"

I threw my phone and sighed. I've been friends with Brent forever, what if this ruins it. But I just feel different with Harry, I don't know what it is.

My phone lit up and I expected to see a text from Brent, and explanation to why he didn't answer but instead I saw Harry's name.

"Dinner tonight?" He wants to go on a date. I was shocked and happy. I replied as fast as I could.

"What time?" I sighed thinking about what I should wear. What if I'm 0ver dressed or underdressed? I was definitely over thinking this.

His name flashed on my screen again."I will pick you at 7"

It was more of a demand rather than a question but I didn't mind.

I looked at the clock, it was already 4 so I decided to pick out my outfit. I got my favorite dress, it's white with black floral lace covering it.

I put on the dress then straightened my hair. I went light on the make up, I only used lip gloss and eyeliner.

By the time I was ready it was 6:30, I was starving but I couldn't eat anything because I was about to go to dinner so instead a turned on my tv and watched awkward.

It wasn't until 7:30 when I heard a knock at the door. I jumped up and opened the door with a huge smile.

My smile slowly faded when I saw Brooke at the door, not Harry.

"Sorry, I left my key here."

I slowly looked down but quickly looked back up. "Oh no it's ok, I uh just thought you were someone else."

"Oh and who would that be? And why are you all dressed up?" And then she had this look, like she made a connection.

"You have a date don't you! With who!" She sounded so excited.

I looked at her, nervous of what she would think. She saw the look on my face. "Oh my god. You have a date with Harry don't you!"

I slowly nodded.

She rubbed underneath her eyes. "Just. Be careful okay?"

"Oh course" I kind of laughed

She grabbed her key."I'm going to Zayns" she and him have had a thing for while she told me so this was no surprise.

She left and I went back to my show. I fell asleep on the couch and woke up around 9.

I grabbed my phone, no texts from Harry, no calls, I didn't here him come by.

By now it was obvious. Harry wasn't coming.
