Just Friends? ~~

Chapter 3

I'm woken up by my 7:00am alarm ringing in my ear. I'm scattered on the couch, make-up and hair everywhere. It takes me a while to adjust my eyes and fugure out what went on last night. Then it comes to me, Tyler and Harry got into a big brawl, Harry told Tyler to leave and I fell asleep on Harry. Where is Harry? I get up off the couch and search the house for Harry. Harry is no where to be seen, I instantly feel.. hurt? I dont know why. Maybe it's the thought that he left without saying goodbye, or he didn't give me a chance to thank him again for what he did last night.

I think about harry throughout my whole morning, getting ready for school. Once I'm ready I give my mom a kiss goodbye and I am out the door on my way to school. The drive goes quick, by the time I've listened to 3 songs on the radio, I arrive at school just on time, 7:30. I cant see Courtney or Emma yet so I just walk to the front of the school.

Before I can make it to the front, I stop in my tracks. I feel all different emotions run over me from the sight that I see. Harry has a girl leaned up against the wall, with tongues down throats. I dont know what's upsetting me so much about this. I didn't even like him. Or did I? Harry finally moves his lips away from the girls and turns his head towards where I'm standing. I feel like my feet are glued to the floor. Harry has already seen me and he probably look like a complete idiot. I feel my cheeks flush red and I finally move my feet towards the entry of the school and speed walk down the hall till I reach my locker. I grab my books and head towards my science class. I spot Courtney sitting at the back of the class alone, and decide to take a seat right next to her.

"Hey, whats wrong Jess? You look like you've had a tough morning" Courtney says while giggling to herself.

"I'll tell you everything later, I just want to get it off my mind right now"

Courtney nods at me and our science teacher, Ms Novak walks through the door. Seconds later another student walks through the door. Harry. He looks me right in the eye and decides on taking a seat 2 rows ahead of me. I feel as if I should apologize for my actions this morning, but I know I'll stutter or embarass myself in some way.

Science class goes by quick. Since it's our first time having science, she only made the class watch a 40 minute documentary about different types of energy. Which was a complete bludge.

When the class ends I take Courtney's arm and practically drag her out the door.

"Hey! Whats wrong? You've been acting so weird"

After telling Courtney every single detail about last night and this morning, she's left wih her eyes wide and mouth open. I told her about the fight between Harry and Tyler, that Harry slept over last night and the feelings that came over me when I saw Harry kissing that girl.

"I have an idea, why dont you come out tonight. A whole group of us are going to a bar around the corner from here. Harry's going to be there too. Maybe you'll get a chance to talk to him then".

"I dont know.."

"Please! You dont even have to talk to him if you dont want to, just have a night out!"

I finally give in and roll my eyes at her in the process. Hopefully it wont be so bad. Only a couple of drinks, and maybe I'll even make some new friends while I'm there.

The rest of the day goes by fast and It turns out Harry is only in one other class with me, English.We didn't make eye contact what so ever. We just carried on with our days like nothing even happened. By the time I get home it's already 4:30 and Courtney texted me to meet her at 6. I start off by hopping in the shower and washing my hair. I have no idea what to wear tonight, but I'm assuming it's not really formal or really casual, something in between. I get out of the shower, dry my hair and then put some loose curls into it. I apply the normal foundation and mascara but this time add a little eyeshadow around my eyes. I look through all my clothes and come up with a black skirt, along with a light pink formal top to go along with it. I look in the mirror and I actually look better then I usually would. I slip into some flat shoes and by the time I finish getting ready, its 6:00.
