Antisocial [h.s]

[thirteen]

I unlocked the door and walked into my room, nearly having a heart attack seeing Perrie, Zayn, Niall I think, then another lad and then another girl.

"Hey Blake," Perrie greeted, smiling brightly. "You're out late,'' she noted with a little smirk. "Were you with Harold?"

"Uh yeah, we grabbed a bite to eat,'' I replied, setting my backpack on my bed before removing my dirty clothes and putting them in my hamper.

"Where were you last night? You never came back to the dorm, were you with Harry?"

"And Liam. I fell asleep in their room,'' I said quietly. 

I felt awkward and uncomfortable so I just sat on my bed and went on my computer. I was lucky that they left within ten minutes, but Perrie stayed. 

She got up from her bed and went over to her closet. "So... What's the deal with you and Harry?" 

"We're friends, I guess,'' I shrugged, closing my laptop and then going to my own closet.

"You're wearing his jumper,'' she accused.

"Yeah, it's comfortable and I have a thing for wearing clothes too big for me,'' I replied and pulled my leggings down, leaving me in the jumper, my underwear and my socks. 

I peeled off my socks and tossed the leggings and socks into my hamper. "You're comfortable around him?"

"Why the suden interest? Liam send you to figure out what's what with his friend and his cousin?" I asked, turning around to face her as she pulled a t-shirt on.

"Well, he told me to check things out. You've only been at this school a week and you have a friend that you're getting close to and he's-well-''

"He's Liam, he cares too much because he knows he's going to outlive me. He watches me like a lab rat and I love him but he doesn't need to make you a spy,'' I mumbled before I felt a sharp pain in my chest and I gasped, squeezing my eyes shut. 

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah,'' I nodded and then fumbled over to my med drawer, pulling out my vicoden. 

Pain meds are okay with me, but anything else isn't okay. I popped the two large pills in my mouth and swallowed. 

"Goodnight.''

I plugged my phone in to charge, then I plugged my ear phones in, quickly climbing into bed and passing out to conceal the aching.

~-~

I almost thought the pain had resolved 6 months ago, I was wrong and now I have to pop pain pills like candy and it's just Thursday, two days after the pain started, Felix says I have a fight tonight, Harry claims he's coming, and my chest is claiming not a good idea but hey, I know how to put up a good front. 

Harry wrapped his arm around my shoulders, his arm handing off in front of me and I was tempted to interlock our hands. 

"So, what was your first fight like? Like before you started doing it as a sport?" he asked and I finally gave in to my temptation and held his hand.

"Well, Liam was in year 9 while I was in year 8, Karen and Geoff were out of town so a bunch of his friends came to the house, a few guys came over who weren't exactly his friends. I was hiding away in my room like usual and I was just reading a book with my music on. One lad stumbled into my room, I was only wearing a t-shirt of Liam's and some panties. I was scared, telling him to go away but he tossed my book out the window and pulled my shirt off my body. He wasn't actually in Liam's year, he was a year older than Liam so two years older than me and probably 3 times stronger than me. Once he saw the, the scarring on my chest he was grosed out and that and the fact I was PMSing pissed me off enough to kick him off me and then give him a concussion, a broken nose and two fractured ribs. He only smacked me around a bit and they began my aggressive behavior.''

"And now I see why you don't get laid,'' he pointed out and I giggled, bumping him with my hip. "Although, a guy would like an aggressive girl.''

"Is sex all you think about?" I asked, looking up at him as we wandered.

"Mmm, it's on the sidelines of everything,'' he grinned and squeezed my hand. 

I rolled my eyes before speaking, "Where are we going? I have to be at the gym by 6:30.''

"We're getting ice cream-''

"Okay, we're both gonna be diabetic or fat or we're gonna be diabetic and fat if all we eat is pizza or ice cream,'' I interrupted him but smiled. "Chocolate or vanilla?"

"Chocolate, what about you?"

"Vanilla, but only if it's the soft ice cream.''

"Let's do more would you rather, I like knowing the little things,'' he encouraged.

"Okay?"

"Okay. Movies or music?"

"Movies. Tank top or t-shirt?"

"T-shirt, they look much better with huge muscles,'' he bragged.

"My muscles are much better,'' I joked and he pinched my bicep.

"Aw, it's so small,'' he teased.

"I'm still able to pin you down.''

"Whatever. Let's get bcak to the questions now. Oreos or chocolate chip cookes?"

"Oreos. Teddy bear or blanket?"

"I had both when I was a kid, but teddy bears are better to cuddle with and I really like cuddling,'' he explained quite adorably. "Cuddling or sleeping alone?"

"Cuddling with who?"

"Me?"

"We'll see,'' he grinned widely and squeezed my hand. "Cuddling or getting laid?"

"Depends who with, you wouldn't understand,'' he chuckled. "Cuddling. Not a lot of the girls I've been with feel the same though.'' I rolled my eyes. "But I would like to cuddle with you.''

"Are you just in the cuddling mood which is why you won't stop talking about it?"

"Maybe.''

"You need a girlfriend, Harold,'' I teased, looking up at him and he crinkled his nose.

"If I had a girlfriend then I wouldn't be allowed to be with you all the time and hold you like this, she'd be too jealous,'' he pointed out, squeezing my shoulders with his arm. "Then you'd get jealous and fall madly in love with me and then there would be a huge problem.''

I giggled and shook my head. "I don't think I'm going to fall in love. Sounds too painful from what i've read.''

"Really? Falling in love isn't a bad thing.''

"Getting hurt is inevitable and why would anyone put themselvse through that much pain?"

"So you don't believe in love?"

"I believe it's there, yeah, I see it, I just don't want it,'' I explained briefly as Harry turned us and then opened a door.

"One day you will fall in love and you'll see it's worth it.''

He removed his arm from my shoulders and gestured for me to walk in first. I smiled at him and walked in, him following behind.
