Euphonious Memories {H.S}

24.

Fireworks. Sparks. Electricity.

That was all I was thinking at the moment he kissed me. I was shocked and excited at the same time.

We had kissed before, but it was only a small short one.

I barely remembered it because it was 3 in the morning and I was delusional.

This kiss had passion. That was, until he pulled away.

He let go of me and when I saw the look on his face, I could see that he felt like he wasn't doing something that was illegal. He got up and started to walk away.

"No!" I shouted without thinking. "No! No! No! You can't keep doing that!" I yelled and got up to stubble after him. I grabbed his arm before he could go into the living room and slam the door.

He turned around and glared at me. His lustful eyes locked on mine like magnets.

"What?! Keep doing what?" He asked as if I was aggravating him.

"Stop running away from me and slamming the door after you kiss me!" I yelled. He sighed and I let go of his arm.

"Don't you get it?" He asked. "I have to."

"Why? Why do you have to kiss me and then run away angry never speaking about it again?"

"There are reasons for it." He told me and I saw his green eyes begin to gloss.

"Well could you please tell me?Because I am tired of you screwing with my head."

"I want you." He said as he walked over to the couch and sat down. I followed him and sat next to him. "I really want you....but I can't have you."

"I know I can be rude sometimes,but I never said that. In fact you never asked."

"No, it's not that." He spoke softly. "I can't be close to anyone. Everyone I get close to ends up dying or getting hurt." When he said this my heart shattered into a million pieces.

"Harry. You cannot blame yourself for what happened to Raine." I said taking his hand in mine. "Or Gemma."

"Yes I can." He said pulling his hand away. "Because those are not the only times that has happened to someone I loved.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Amie Stanton." He simply said and I gasped.

"Y-you mean?" I couldn't hardly think.

My mind was jumbled at the thought of the girl he was taking about. "You mean Amie Stanton as in Liam's dead girlfriend, Amie Stanton?" He nodded and my head got dizzy.

Amie and Liam were soul mates in high school. You didn't need to see them together more that once to realize that.

I only met Amie three times. She was a sweet, kind, and generous girl. Not to mention how beautiful she was.

I thought about the day that I heard that she died in a car crash. Liam was devastated. He came back to grandma's house so he wouldn't be surrounded by all the Memories in California.

I remember he didn't leave his room for two weeks. And when he did leave his room all he did was stare into space. He never went back to California after the incident.

"Wait what did you have to do with Amie?" I asked him.

"It's a very long story,but I will give you the shorter version." He said as he looked down.

I sat there and listened to his story without interrupting."

I always had a crush on Amie. Even before her and Liam started dating. I just never had the guts to ask her out.
Liam ended up getting to her before me. At the time, Liam and I were best friends. The whole time they dated, I still had feelings for Amie, but I had to force myself to hide them for Liam's sake. Throughout junior and senior year, Amie, Liam,and I hung out all the time. We went to parties together almost every weekend. One Friday night, we were at a party and I got drunk. Liam had left because he was feeling sick. He didn't know I was drunk and neither did Amie. I was supposed to be the designated driver that night, but I couldn't help myself I had to drink to keep my mind off of Amie. I wasn't in my right mind when I got behind that wheel. I was supposed to take Amie home, but we didn't make it to her house because we crashed into a car. It was my fault. I killed Amie."

"Oh my God." I managed to get out of my mouth. "So when you said that you and Liam have bad history that's what you were referring to?"

"Yeah" He said sadly. "When he found out that I was drunk we had a big fight and he never talked to me after that."

"Were you hurt?" I asked

"Yeah I broke my leg and my arm. By the time the police were there, I was sobered up and they never knew I was drunk. After that, I have tried to stay away from alcohol as much as possible."

I just sat. Staring blankly ahead of me.

"I get it if you choose to ignore me like your brother did."

"I'm not going to ignore you. In fact what I'm gonna do is bring you with me to my grandmas house."

"W- No" He said standing up with wide eyes. "I can not be near Liam he will kill me if he sees me. And that is another reason we can't be together. It's like some kind food bro code. You don't date your best friend's sister. Especially if your "best friend" already hates you."

I stood up and walked over to him. I snaked my arms around his neck then stood on my tip toes and kissed his lips.

"We can be together if we want to." I said lightly smiling up at him. "No one can can tell us otherwise." He smiled and leaned down to kiss me again.

"So does this mean you'll come?" I asked him.

"Fine." He whined.

"Yay!" I said in an excited voice and kissed the dimple that appeared on his cheek.

A/N: I'm so sorry the update took a little time. I've had state test and I took the ACT this week. So I've been busy.
