2 DAYS LATER

Lily's POV

It's been a couple of days since Harry stormed out of the small cafe. Today is Monday and we haven't talked since Saturday. He ignored me in school today which left me talking to Louis and Niall for the majority of the day.

Today's my first day working at the cafe with Luke.

I made my way to the cafe after school and entered the small building. I walked behind the counter looking for someone's assistance.

I noticed someone flipping pancakes by the stove. They had messy brown hair and kept dropping the pancakes on the floor.

"E-excuse me?" I timidly asked.

The brown haired boy turned his attention towards me. "Uh, you're supposed to order on the other side of the counter..."

"I know that. Uhm Luke g-gave me a job here on Saturday. He told me to come on Monday around 4 but he never told me where to go or what to do and I haven't seen him around and-"

"Woah slow down babe. What's your name?" He chuckled.

"Lily Warner." I managed to speak without stuttering.

"Oh hey, I remember you from a couple weeks ago. I'm Ashton." He smiled.

"Hi, Ashton." I grinned timidly. "So where do I start?"

After 4 hours of washing and drying dishes, my first shift was over. I hope I get to do other things eventually.

Luke showed up around 5 and showed me everything I needed to know about the cafe.

"I know today was short, but it's only because it's your first day and I wanted to show you everything." Luke smiled at me.

"Thanks so much Luke. I really appreciate everything."

"So, do you need a ride home? I noticed the only cars that were in the parking lot were Ashton's and mine..."

"Oh yeah I walked here. But I'm fine, I can walk home."

"No no, I insist. Plus, that's like the ultimate dick move if I watch you walk home."

I giggled at his comment. "Fine, but only tonight. I swear I'll have a ride every other night."

The drive home was really nice. I got to have a real conversation with Luke without Harry interrupting any of it. I found out that Luke and I can always keep a conversation going which is really hard to do when you're with me.

When we got to my house, which I had to give Luke directions to, he walked me up to my door.

"Thanks for the ride Luke. Oh, and thanks for the job too." I laughed.

Luke smiled his award winning smile. "It was my pleasure. And quit thanking me for the job, would ya? I mean, you would've gotten it anyways since you're probably the nicest, most genuine girl I've ever met. I'm sure Rob would've accepted you without hesitation."

I slapped his arm playfully. "Quit exaggerating."

He laughed. "Well I best be going. I'll send you your work schedule tomorrow."

"Okay."

He went in to give me a friendly hug when all of a sudden my front door opened and revealed Liam.

"Oh hey guys. Sorry, I had no idea who was out here and I started hearing voices. My bad." He scratched his neck awkwardly. He always seems to do that when he's nervous.

"Don't worry about it mate, I was just heading out. See ya Lily." Luke waved goodbye as he walked towards his car. I waved back and made my way into my house.

I heard Liam shut the front door. "So how was work? And who was that by the way?" Liam asked out of curiosity.

"Work was good, I just did the dishes the whole time pretty much. And that was Luke. He's the one who gave me my job."

"Nice, and I could've driven you home."

"I know, but Luke offered. I was actually gonna walk home..." I trailed off.

"No way. I don't want you walking the streets at night. It's not safe and you know that." Liam stated. Who is he, my father? Pfft, not even close.

I rolled my eyes. "I know, Liam. I'm not 7 years old."

I ignored his next comment and walked to my bedroom. I realized I haven't checked my phone since the school day ended.

I turned it on and was instantly greeted with 12 missed calls and 34 messages. What the hell?

1 call was from my parents, 2 were from Niall and the other 9 were from Harry. I read the text messages from top to bottom.

Niall- Hey, are you busy?

Niall- Want to hangout ?

Dad- Hey hun, call me when you get a chance. Hope everything is well at home.

Dad- Oh and tell Liam to answer his phone.

Harry- Where are you?

Harry- I want to come over.

Harry- Lily?

Harry- Don't be pissed at me

Harry- I'm over the other day

Harry- Please respond

Harry- Is everything alright?

Harry- Are you at home?

Harry- Lily please answer me

Harry- Pick up your phone

Harry- Please

The messages went on and on. I didn't know if I should respond to Harry or not considering the last text was sent over 2 hours ago. I'm assuming he just gave up.

I decided to call Harry back to stop his worrying.

Ring

Ring

Ring

"Lily?"

"Hey, um you called?"

"Hell yeah I fucking called. And texted you like 30 times. Where the fuck were you?"

"At work..."

He snorted. "Oh right, with that Luke bitch." I could tell he was rolling his eyes.

"He's actually very nice. He even offered me a ride home-" Oh shit.

"He drove you home?! Son of a motherfu-" I pulled the phone away so I didn't hear the rest of his sentence. I'd rather not listen to his foul language.

I cleared my throat. "Are you done?"

"Why would you drive home with him? I could've drove you!"

"Yeah I know, that's exactly what Liam said."

"Fuck Liam, I don't give a damn what he says!"

I furrowed my eyebrows. "Uh okay..." So now he's got a problem with Liam?

I heard him sigh through the phone. "Whatever, I have to go."

"Huh? That's it?"

"Hell yeah that's it. I'm fucking done, the deal's off." What?

"Deal? What deal?"

I felt my phone vibrate notifying that I just got a text message.

Blocked number- Hang up. Now.

"I have to go Lily. I'm sorry." I heard Harry speak.

"Wait Har-" The line went dead.

What the hell is going on.
