"I want to see her"

"What?" I ask wide eyed and she nods slowly.

"yeah"

"I don't think that would be the best idea" I chuckle and she raises her eyebrows.

"Are you hiding something" She asks, looking at me with a complete straight face and I shake my head quickly.

"No! Of course not!" 100% true!

"So if you've got nothing to hide then why can't I see her?" She reasons and I know that she thinks i'm lying, it sounds like I am! There is no lie at all, I just don't want the girl I love seeing a woman I slept with when I was drunk.

"Okay fine" I sigh. How did this even happen, we were getting along perfectly for the past week, but it's almost as if it was too perfect; like something was bound to go wrong and I would fuck up once more. I wish she could just climb inside my mind, even if for just a second so she could see how undeniably in love I am with her. She looks at me surprised as if she thought I would say no to meeting the girl at the bar but I have to get her to trust me. "come on, we'll go now" I tell her, grabbing her hand and walking back up the road with her.

"N-now?" her eyes are wide and I nod confidently.

"Yes Lola, as I said, I have nothing to hide. you can see for yourself how much of a mistake I made" I tell her and she squeezes my hand, halting for a While.

"Harry I'm sorry. I trust you and I don't want to see her" she speaks softly and a part of me feels a large amount of relief inside of me, but the other half is disappointed because I want to prove to Lola how little the girl at the bar compares to her.

"Really?" I ask, shocked and bewildered.

"Yes, fuck I ruined this whole week" she pulls her hand away from mine and covers her face. I frown, I don't like it when she swears but what hurts the most is she blames herself when I'm the one clearly in the wrong.

"Don't you dare say that" I tell her sternly, pulling her hands away from her face and hugging her tightly. "I wish you could see how much you mean to me" I whisper into her hair and she sighs.

"I love you Harry" she pulls away and looks up at me with her big brown eyes.

"I love you so much baby"

"How do you feel about going back to school" I ask her as we sit at the kitchen table, I'm eating a slice of toast and Lola's drinking some orange juice.

"Um I guess I'm okay with it. I've never really liked school anyway" she shrugs and I frown.

"How come?"

"What is there to like about it?" she chuckles without emotion and I shrug.

"I guess you're right. but I'm here now so your lessons will be super fun" I smile cheekily at her and she laughs.

"I could ask you the same thing though, you haven't been at school for two weeks either" she tells me, brushing her hair with her fingers. that's true, I haven't been at school in two weeks because I called in sick when Lola got shot, I needed to look after her and I certainly didn't want to leave her out of my sight for six hours of the day. My mum covered for me, she told my step dad that I was at my dads for the two weeks; I honestly don't know what I would do without her.

"I guess it's okay also, I just hate the lessons and the homework and the studying" I groan, remember all the boring tasks that come along with school; it's like a package deal.

"You're not the only one that feels that way. this is our last year as well before we move on to college." she groans, resting her head in her hands.

"Yup, 4 more months" I sigh.

"What do you think will happen to us?" she asks and I shrug.

"I guess we go off to college, then university if we want to and then we live the rest of our lives-" she cuts me off.

"No, I mean to us" she corrects me and my mind gets to work on her question. I don't like it because I have to think about the future and that's something I hate, but then again I get this warm feeling inside of me when she pictures us together in the near future.

"We stay together, we have overcome many things lola, I'm sure school isn't going to be a problem" I tell her and he nods, smiling slightly. I take the last bite of my toast and wipe away the crumbs on my jeans. " ready to go?" I ask after taking my plate and her now empty glass into the kitchen and placing it in the sink. she nods, grabbing her bag from by the front door and slipping on her converse.

"Time to get back to reality" she sighs and I nod, I don't want to see my 'friends' today. I want to stay with Lola all day. because I know what the boys will talk about. they'll talk about the bet, that to me is none existent, but to them is still very active.

I'm so sorry for the boring chapter. I have so many ideas for this book but I don't want it to be drama after drama, I want it to be somewhat realistic. this book is no where near finished, there is certainly going to be a sequel!!
