As I walk into the room, Carmen is sitting on her bed with headphones in her ears. I look over and she pulls them out as soon as she sees me.
"Hey Baby!" She says, and I sit on the bed. I look down and she notices something is up. "Look, I know we have only been friends and roommates for a few weeks now, but I know you enough to know you're taking a chance with Harry." She says, and I stand up.
"How the hell did you know?!" I say, and she laughs. "Seriously..." I push, and she just shrugs.
"You were scared to tell me." She says simply, but continues. "Look, I know you like him and I'm not going to put that in between us, but I know some things about Harry that aren't good for him or for you-"
"What things." I interrupt, and she sighs. "Tell me why you've been so weird lately, especially with Louis..." I ask, and she sighs, looking at the floor with guilt in her eyes.
"I had sex with Louis... before you say anything I know that was wrong and I love my boyfriend more than anything but I was drunk and I found him cute, which is no excuse but I couldn't stop myself. When I went into Harry's room I noticed a note on Harry's bedside table, anyways me being nosy I read it and it was a written receipt." She says and I am so confused and shocked with all this information.
"A receipt of what?" I ask.
"Heroin."
No. She is lying. She has to be lying he wouldn't do that. I know that was before the cocaine but that's not okay.
"You're lying." I say, and she shakes her head. "Carmen you can't be serious! He wouldn't ever do that okay? Why were you even in his room?!" I almost yell, but she jumps up.
"Louis told me he was buying more drugs, and I went into his room to see if he was, to confront him, but he wasn't there and I saw it." She says, and I roll my eyes. "And please don't tell him about Louis and I." She begs, and I decide to get more details about her and Louis.
"Explain what happened to Louis! I need details!" I change the subject, forgetting about all she's said for now.
"It was that night, we just ended up having sex, and when I said I wasn't leaving my boyfriend for a one night stand he flipped out and called me a whore and all sorts." She whines, and I can't help but feel sorry for her.
"I'm sorry that happened, and I won't tell your boyfriend. Just don't hurt him, he doesn't deserve that." I say, and she nods.
"Anyways, be careful with Harry because I don't trust him one bit." She says, and I nod.
I roll over into my bed and sigh, I decide to text Harry a goodnight.
*Hey, just wanna say goodnight!* I text, and within seconds he's read it.
*Goodnight Baby, sweet dreams ;) x* he cheekily replies, leaving me giggling to myself. I lock my phone, and turn off my light to go to sleep.

The showers are warm as the water trickles down my spine. I begin to think about mine and Carmen's conversation late last night.
I feel terrible for her, but I trust Harry. I will indirectly ask him about it in the future.
I wrap my towel around my cold body, Heading over to the sink to brush my teeth. Today is my dance day, so my first class is literature with Harry. I finish in the bathroom and head to my bedroom to put clothes on.
When I enter my room I see a familiar face sitting on my bed. I look down at my basically naked body and shriek.
"Harry! Get out!" I squeal, and he stands up, chuckling.
"Calm down! I was hoping for a little show..." He says, winking. I groan a sound of disgust and swat his arm. i look over at him and he's staring up and down my towel covered body, licking his lips. It causes me to shiver, and he makes eye contact and smirks.
"Out, now. I'll be 2 minutes." I scowl, and he walks out, giving my bum a smack over the towel causing me to squeak. As the door closes I throw on a band shirt and black jeans.
"Come in." I say, and he opens the door, rolling his eyes.
"Why can't I see you naked?" He pouts, and I scoff.
"Maybe because we haven't even been on a proper date, and unlike the many girls you've probably been with... I have class." I state, and he laughs.
"So, after Friday's date I can?" He wriggles his eyebrows, and I scoff.
"Shut up." I joke, and he winks at me. He takes a step towards me and pulls me to him by my hips. I begin to feel that electric feeling his touch causes.
"What am I going to do with you?" He asks, leaning in to kiss me. Before he can kiss me I pull away.
"No more kisses until after our date, alright?" I challenge him, and before I can say anything he steals a peck off me. "You're crazy." I joke and he winks at me.
"And you're innocent. I love it."
I blush at the word, and he coughs, as in nervous to say something. I look up at him and he's smiling at me. "What?" I say, and he shakes his head.
"Nothing." He mumbles, and I let it go. I grab my key, and we head out to walk to literature.
Walking to literature is quiet and kind of awkward, but I look up at him and can't help but blush a little. He really is handsome, and as rude as he was to me I can't help but want to forget it and start new, which is the option I am taking.
"So what's the plan for Friday?" I ask, and he smiles to himself. I have 2 days before our date and I'll admit I'm really excited.
"Well, I was hoping you wouldn't mind going after class to dinner? I'm not really the fancy kind of guy but I don't mind." He says, and I smile at his kind gesture.
"That sounds wonderful. " I say, and he smiles. We enter our class to listen to another 75 minute lecture and receive a new assignment, which I am already not looking forward to.
By the end of class we have to write an essay on the 'Pride and Prejudice' and I don't want to do it, but I don't really have much of a choice.
Harry walks out of class quickly, and I go to say a quick hello to Niall, but he avoids eye contact. I shrug it off and think about the first night Harry and I kissed and can't help but be excited and nervous for our date.
