Wrong - Harry Styles

Chapter 17

Indie's pov

The classes went quickly as lunch did too. We all are standing in our usual spot by the carparks now that it's the end of the day, waiting for the whole group to arrive and talk about the party.

"So, everyone's got a way to the party, there's going to be strippers, alcohol, the pool is ready, anything else we need to discuss?" Louis asks everyone.

"The fact that I don't know half the people coming.." Harry hums with annoyance and sarcasm.

"Why do you even care?" Kai rolls his eyes at Harry.

"I don't, that's just it. I don't want this party to be mine, or about me." He scoffs.

"Well if half the people don't know you then you don't have much to worry about." Linsey laughs, she has a good point, but I won't agree with her out loud.

"I forgot you were the most annoying.." he doesn't finish his sentence, he turns his head around and stares at the carparks full of people reversing their cars and heading home. And I find myself staring at him.

"Right, well. I'm heading to the bus." I say with slight nervousness, I hate it so much, I can't wait to be able to get my own car and drive myself.

"Let me take you home." Ruth's voice comes next to me, I give a relieved smile.

"Thank you." I say as we walk away from the group and start to walk towards her car, when we do she opens it up and we both get in.

"I hated taking the bus too, I was harassed and all that shit, if I can drive you, it's not a problem, so don't even hesitate to ask." I nod my head, glad that I'm not the only one who hates it.

"Hey, can I do a little makeup on you tonight? I'm practicing for my makeup class and I want to see you with more makeup." I chuckle at her as she asks.

"I don't mind, although it will probably come off in the pool." I remind her.

"It's okay, you can just go in the pool at the end of the night and keep my masterpiece on your face for the most of it." I laugh with Ruth and she turns the radio on for the rest of the drive and we talk a little bit about classes before we arrive to my house—which she already remembers the address.

My mum isn't home, I grab the house keys out of my bag as I exit the car. Ruth quickly grabs a black bag from her car and locks it behind her. She follows me to my door and I find myself growing more excited as I unlock it, it's funny how I already feel pretty comfortable with her, as different as we are, she's just such a character.

"This is such a cool place." We walk upstairs to my room together, I open my door to my room and she seems amazed by it.

"Wow you keep your shit clean, you don't want to see my room it's a mess compared to yours."

I laugh as I sit down on the bed and shove my phone on charge and my bag besides my bed.

Ruth comes next to me and places the bag down on the bed. "Right, well.. let's get your outfit figured out so we can match the makeup." I hear the excitement in her voice, she runs to my closet and we both start to go through it, looking for an outfit. We argue for a little after choosing a couple of dresses about what shoes to wear, she thinks heels, I really think flats will just be fine.

"Im a fucking God or something because you're looking hotter than half the population." She looks at me and powders my nose with the brush once more. "Not that you don't look flawless without all this with your stupidly perfect skin and glowing blue eyes."
