Hide and Seek h.s

Chapter 13

"You forgot about me" he whispered.

"What?!" I shout at him.

"I wrote you a letter! I made all that effort because I wanted to apoligize!" he said, his eyes growing sad.

"Look, Harry, you don't need to apoligize for anything okay? And, I'm sorry I forgot. I went on a date with Niall"

"A date? So he is your boyfriend" Harry said. His eyes looked teary for some reason.

"No! It was just one date! That doesnt mean he's my boyfriend" I sighed.

"It doesn't?" he looked up at me, his eyes the nicest colour of green I had ever seen.

"No Harry. It doesn't. How did you even get in here?" I asked, slightly worried.

"Through the window. I should probably go now. You probably want to have some time to think about your boyfriend." he spat. Here we go again with the mood swings.

"Harry, look. What did you want to talk about? I want to know." I say, smiling slightly.

"You do?" he looks up at me, his eyes uncertain. It makes my heart ache looking at him.

"Yeah, tell me why you're here." I sat down cautiously on the bed next to him and he jumped a bit.

"Um. Well, I felt bad for shouting at you. A-and I, uh, I just wanted someone to talk to." he whispered the last part and I felt so sad.

He was alone. He had no one to talk to. No one to just hang out with or watch a film with. I decided then that I would make an effort with Harry. Make him feel like he had a friend.

"Well, Harry, if you ever feel like talking to someone, you can come and talk to me." I say with a smile.

He looks at me in disbelief.

"Really?" He asks, I nod.

"Um- I'm not sure if that's safe for you. I- I can get quite...angry? I h-have something- I......." he trails off, not quite sure what to say.

I look at him and notice that he's crying.

"Hey. It's okay." I say and wrap my arm around his waist. He stiffens and flinches, before relaxing and putting his head on my shoulder. I pull him down and end up lying on the bed with Harry's head leaning on my shoulder.

This was so weird. I don't even know this boy and now we're cuddling on my bed? I don't know why but I needed to comfort him. I could be his Luke. When I had no one Luke was there for me. When I was sad, Luke would cheer me up.

I brushed my hand through Harry's surprisingly soft curly hair and his sighed contently.

"You're such a nice person Bethan." he mumbles sleepily.

I laugh quietly.

"Thanks Harry. So are you."

"M'not" he mumbles, half asleep.

"You are. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself." I said.

"Mhm" he mumbles and then his eyes close and I know he's sleeping. I look down at him and he looks so peaceful. So beautiful.

This boy had problems and secrets, but hey. Who doesn't?

I want to help him. Want to be a friend and if he'll let me, I will be his shoulder to cry on.
