I woke up actually remembering Harry lives here now, and I can't walk around the house, looking like a pile of shit. Especially if he is showing this kind of affection.

I climb out of bed, and make my way over to the on-suite to cleanse my face. I look at myself in the mirror, searching for spots, blackheads and other curious teenage stuff. I apply the usual make up, curl the ends of my hair and put the terrible uniform on, that makes me itch and feel awfully uncomfortable. I made my way downstairs after finishing my teeth.

I find Harry eating a banana at the large dining room table next to the kitchen, holding his black iPhone 6 in the other hand, obviously reading/searching through a website, as his thumb keeps scrolling the screen up.

"Morning!" I chirp, grabbing a bowl from the cupboard filling it with granola and milk. I made my way over to sit with him at the table.

"Morning" He grunts, his morning voice is raspy and deep.

"You all right?" I try to make conversation, as he just bluntly stares at his phone.

"Whatever happened yesterday won't happen again! I believe you're a wonderful girl, but I can't carry this on, it's bad for me, and it was a mistake!" He coughed, standing up and beginning to walk out of the room, probably to get out of the awkwardness.

"Oh..." Is all I say, not thinking straight one bit. "Yeah, it was a massive mistake, I now feel terrible that I forgot to mention my boyfriend..." I lie, shit, who's my boyfriend?

"Who?" He questions, suddenly snapping his head back towards me, as he tensed his jaw.

"Luke" I blurt out. I can't believe I just said that. Fucking Luke... out of everyone. The one I don't talk to any more, the one I hate the most, and the person my friend loves with her heart.

"I thought you hated him now? Did you get back together?" Harry clenched his jaw more at his name. I have spoke to Harry before about Luke, I told him that we weren't friends any more...

"We made up?..." Another lie passed my lips, there was no way I was making up with that 'popular'.

Harry ignored the last answer and ran up to his room, as I heard his door slam.

I can't believe he would lie, and bail his love on me. I really just wan't to cry, pretend I don't know him, pretend I didn't hear what he told me yesterday. But it was so true, and real, and he meant it, at least I thought he did. I want to push him out my house, scream in his face, but I can't... As it will make this more awkward than needed.

All I really wan't is...him.

Harry's P.O.V

What the fuck did I just do?

Well done Harry, have the award for best; lover, enemy, teacher and house mate all at the same time! I shouldn't of done that to her, especially the way I did do it. I just ended it like a pack of lies... To make me feel better.

I wan't her back now I've said that, but that relationship wouldn't work even if we did carry on. It would of just upset her, and I don't want her ruining her life on me... We wouldn't of been able to go out, have fun like ordinary couples, I wouldn't be able to make her happy, laugh or love me more than I would wan't her too. But now she can with...Luke.

I hope Luke gives her what she wants...

I wiped the fast falling tears from my glossy eyes, hoping I look better than I feel; crap.

Right now, all I really want is...her.

Carly's P.O.V

I'm not even going to bother to ask for a lift. I'm not going to talk to him ever. I might text Calum to meet me, so I'm not actually on my own.

Hey Calum can you meet me?xx

I was about to press send when I hear a recognisable voice behind me... Luke. I totally forgot he lived opposite me, and he went to the same school and he was my best friend.

"Alright?" He mutters, catching up with me. Which wasn't hard as he was at least 6ft 4, and he has really long legs, and I mean long. "Carly?"

I just ignore him, knowing it's best to just keep walking away from him. He upset me, and left me for his 'girlfriend' Grace.

"You can't ignore me forever... I know I was wrong?" He pulls me to face him, his face was full of concern.

"I can actually? Who was the one that left me, for a girl! We promised in year 7, that we would be best friends forever, and never leave each other, you know how vulnerable I was and still am. Michael and Calum stayed, why couldn't you?" I practically scream in his face, tears were falling past my cheeks by this point, I didn't know whether it was because of Harry or Luke? Maybe both. 

"Carly, I'm sorry... I never was meant to just leave you, but I'm happier now, and with some decent people where I can be myself" He just says, walking away from me. Has he already gave up? I notice who he's walking up to; Grace.

I just huff, wipe my eyes and move on. I thought he was sorry, and he would ask to come back to us, and hang out like old times, but no. He said 'sorry' and left again. I notice Harry drive by in his Range Rover, glancing at me and just carrying on. I'm fed up, and I really need to go to bed and sleep, like normal.

When I arrive at school, everyone was walking into the school doors, obviously none of my friends are here, they've gone in like normal. I'm just late, because of Luke and Harry. I approach my tutor door, and find all the gang in there, laughing and playing around, as Michael was blushing like an idiot, staring at Gabs. Why didn't they just date already...

"Carly!!" Everyone screams, coming up to hug me tightly, I'm surrounded by too many happy people right now.

"Hey guys..." I go to my place and pull out my timetable, searching for what I have today.

Shit! I have music. Why did I choose this?
