The New Student [Harry Styles]

Eight || Marcel and Gabriella's Day

~* Gabriella's P.O.V. *~

I'm such a bad person. I shut off Marcel with Harry like a lot of time already. I feel sorry for the guy. Harry hasn't warmed up that much to him yet.

I took out my phone from my pocket and dialed Marcel's number.

"He-hello?" He stuttered.

"Hey, Marcel." I greeted him.

"Oh, hey Gabriella. What's up?" He asked.

"I was wondering if you and I could hang-out over the weekend? I'm such a bad person for shutting you off." I replied.

"Sure. And you're not a bad person. I understand Harry's your boyfriend now." He says.

"Wait what? Where did you get that story?" I asked.

"Harry told me you guys are together. He even told me you guys kissed." Marcel replied.

Oh wow. He just kissed me so he could say we're together? How original.

"No, Marcel. We're not together." I say in a low voice.

"What? Oh okay." He simply replied.

"So about that hang-out? Tomorrow sound good?" I asked.

"Yep." He replied, popping the 'p'.

"Great. See ya tomorrow." I say and hung up the phone.

Ugh. I can't help but think. Harry's so confusing at times. He's so bipolar. Sometimes he's also very annoying. But there are also times when his soft side is showing. He also has a dark side if you haven't noticed. I mean, every time we hang out and people try to beat me he always beats that person until he's senseless.

"Holla!" Harry says as he barged into my room.

"Ever heard of knocking?" I say as I stood up.

"Nope. I came from another planet." He replied.

"Figures." I chuckled. "Why did you tell Marcel that we're together?"

"Oh, that. It's to make him jealous." Harry shrugged.

I chuckled. "Seriously? Marcel would be jealous? How come?" I asked.

"Because he likes you." Harry shrugged.

"What?" I asked disbelievingly.

"Yep. Believe it." Harry replied.

Marcel likes me? Harry likes me? Well, Harry didn't say it but the kiss? Does that mean anything to Harry?

"Harry.... About this kiss..." I started off.

"That was just an unknown move." Harry replied.

"But does it mean anything to you?" I asked.

"Yes." He smiled.

"Harry.. I..." I trailed off but he cut me off when he pressed his lips on mine.

This might sound cliché but fireworks, butterflies, feels erupted in my stomach. Everything feels so perfect right now.

As he pulled away, he whispered; "I think I've fallen in love with my best friend."

I smiled. "Me too." Then I crashed my lips against his once more.

Yep. At this very moment, happiness happens. Harry and me. That's what I call happiness.

*The Next Day*

They're not together. I've got a chance. I have a chance with Gabriella. And today is my day with her. I told Harry about it and he seems unaffected.

"Ready, Gab?" I asked her through the phone.

"Yep." She replied.

"Alright." I say and hung up the phone.

I didn't wear my glasses today. Might as well look decent.

"Hey, Gabriella." I greeted her.

"Hey Marcel- WOAH." She says, looking a bit shocked at what I look like.

"Sorry if I look bad." I commented.

"No you don't. Marcel you look friggin' hot." She says.

I chuckled. "Thanks." I smiled.

"You look a lot like Harry when you don't have glasses on." She commented.

"Well, thank you." I replied sarcastically.

"Oh cheer up, Marcel. Today's our day." Gabriella says as she threw one arm around me.

"I can't believe you named the bowling balls like Harry did." Gabriella giggled.

"Yeah. Freddie, Shelly and Jack are my favorite balls." I shrugged.

"Omg. You guys are weird." She laughed.

I asked her a while ago where she wanted to go and she said our bowling alley. I also have keys to the alley like Harry does so why not?

"Well, since we've been here for the whole morning, how's about we grab lunch?" I asked.

"Sure. Where are we eating?" She asked.

"Nandos." I replied.

She nodded and the both of us headed to Nandos. After we ate, we watched a movie. I loved movies. We watched Paranormal Activity 3.

"Shitballs." Gabriella cussed and covered her eyes with her hands.

I chuckled. She was adorable. "Don't be scared." I reassured her. "I'm here."

She slowly removed her hands and watched the movie as she scooted nearer to me. She's definitely still scared.

"That was terrible." She commented as we went out of the theatre.

"It was not!" I protested.

"It was!" Gabriella snapped back.

"Well, it was a little bit." I said in agreement.

She giggled and she went shopping. I became her assistant for the day. She also bought some few things for me. I considered paying for all of it, but she kept stopping me.

I took her home safely.

"Thanks, Marcel. I had an awesome time." She says. She leaned in a gave me a peck on the cheek.

"It was my pleasure, Gab." I smiled as she went inside her house.

And with that moment, everything was perfect.
