Apex- AU HS FANFIC

Chapter 15

I was exhausted as I walked into school the next day, I had stayed up to finish the Anatomy paper since it was due today and I didn't feel like doing anything other than nap during free period. I walked over to Harry, wrapping my arms around his torso and he pressed a kiss to my head. 

"Hi boys." I yawned, greeting his friends. 

"Long night?" Louis asked and I nodded tiredly. "I finished our anatomy paper." "We were supposed to do that together." Harry sighed but I rolled my eyes, closing them shut and let out a deep sigh as I nestled my head into his neck. 

"So are you guys..." Niall began, choosing his words. 

"A thing?" Liam and finished. 

"We're together. She's my girlfriend." Harry said and I opened my eyes, turning to look at them. 

"Are you?" Zayn asked, looking at me through wide eyes.

"Yeah, he's my boyfriend." 

"And this is okay with Josh?" Louis was confused but Harry nodded. "Yeah, her whole family's cool with it. I asked her mom if it was okay yesterday." 

"And here I thought you'd never settle down." Liam smirked and Harry kissed my head making me smile, he had changed. "Neither did I now look at us. We gotta go to class. Catch you around." Harry put his hand on the small of my back as he lead us to class. 

By lunchtime I was full of energy since I had Josh buy me a coffee since he got to school late because of a dentist appointment, bringing Harry one too. I was standing behind Harry who sat at my usual lunch spot. He was reading the paper, one arm around one of my legs as I danced my pizza jitters. Harry would laugh, completely not reading my paper. 

"Babe stop, you have to read it." I groaned as he looked up at me. 

"Baby, literally I can't with you moving so much." He pressed a kiss to my knee. I was wearing a pair of leggings with a white t-shirt and brown boots. 

"Okay I'll stop but read it. Outloud." I said staying still, he rolled his eyes and leaned against my other leg as he read the intro outloud but I started dancing again making him look up at me. I giggled, bending down and pressed a soft kiss to his face. He puckered his lips and as I went down to kiss his lips I heard someone clear their throat and looked to see Josh. 

"Wassup man?" Harry asked and he jogged down the stairs to meet us at our landing. "Wanted you guys to know, ahead of time, football guys are going over to the house today. If you don't want anyone to know just know they'll be there." 

"Why wouldn't we?" Harry asked and Josh looked at me from crossed arms. "I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to my sister. The guys have a crush on her. All of them, even the ones with girlfriends. She usually is super secretive about her private life because they will bug her about it." 

"I'm not ashamed of Harry, Joshua. I don't care if they know or not." I said and he nodded slowly. "By the way, Nick cancelled camping. He said Chrissy flipped because of the wedding so we're having it next month. Nick invited Harry so be ready." He said before running upstairs. 

"Well, no choice but to go." I looked down at Harry who laughed, shaking his head. "I love your family so I'm down." "What about your family. You never talk about them." I stuck my bottom lip out and he rolled his eyes. 

"My mom's name is Anne, my dad's name is Des but they divorced when I was young. No trauma but now mom's married to Robin, cool dude I guess. I have a sister named Gemma, she's turning 21 at the end of this year. She's married to some dude named Mason and they have a son, Emma's age, name Jackson. He's 16 months old. Dad never remarried but never kept in contact after, he's living his best life as a club manager in Budapest." Harry looked up and I smiled. 

"That's sweet." "You'll meet them soon. I promise." He smiled up and I grinned. "That's so sweet but I'm in no rush if you aren't ready." "I want to make sure we work, I've never brought home a girl before for obvious reasons. They think I'm gay." He whispered the last part making me laugh, shaking my head and groaned when the advisory bell rang, signaling one minute till changing period. 

"Wanna go nap with me?" I asked, all my energy draining with one yawn. "Yeah, let's go sign in and find a spot." "I know one." I said and he helped me pack my stuff, standing in line to sign in. 

"Where to?" "Third floor has lounging areas." I hummed going up to the third floor and lead him past the balcony to the wide rec area that nobody knew about because everyone thought the third floor was for teachers but it wasn't, teachers just don't want anyone up here but don't care if you're up here. 

I pulled my phone out, putting an alarm for the next passing period which was an hour from now and nestled into Harry's chest as I sat next to him, my legs laying across his as we both dozed off to sleep. 

"Baby." I heard making me open my eyes to see Harry yawning, alerting me that class had ended. I rubbed my eyes, standing up and we walked to Anatomy. 

"Hey Harry." A girl giggled, waving at Harry and batting her eyelashes. Harry just gave her a look of disgust as he passed making her frown, whispering how he hasn't called her from the party last month. He had only been here a week and in that week we'd only been together for 2 days. So I'm praying we didn't move to quick. 

"It was last m-" "I know babe. Don't worry." I hummed, laying my head on the table as Mr. Chute began calling those people who didn't turn in their paper to the front of the room to yell at them. 

"Leslie and Harry." He called but I raised my head. 

"Emailed it. You said on the rubric it's fine." I corrected and he looked at his rubric, nodding slowly as he checked. "Okay." He went down the roster, taking the entire period. 

"I don't feel like going to gym." I groaned as we walked to gym to see a white note plastered on the gym door dismissing us all home for the day.

"Too bad, today's free period. Says all the coaches are at Josh's game so we're going on a date instead."
