Dangerous Territory

chapter 2

Courtney's Pov

I hear the leaves crunch as footsteps get closer.

"I swear to god Louis, if you even think of touchi-"

"Woah settle love." I was cut off by Harry who took a seat next to me.

"Sorry" I mumble.

He lifted his bum off the floor digging in his back pocket and pulled out a small box, pulling a cigarette out and placing it in between his lips.

He waved the box towards me, a silent offering.

"No thanks, i don't smoke"

"Suit yourself." Harry spoke, the white stick moves up and down as he speaks. He tilts his head back and lights his cigarette, taking in a big draw and blowing the smoke up into the air with a sigh.

I've never been a big fan of smoking but when Harry took the cigarette in between his middle and forefinger and sucked in the toxic smoke, it was sexy. The way his eyes squeezed shut before he removed it from his mouth and blew out a long stream of smoke made my stomach flutter. When he lifts his head up i got a clear view of the tattoo that covered his neck. A large rose that was made more visible from the light of the fire.

"did it hurt?" Harry looks at me strangely.

"did what hurt?" he asked.

"The tattoo on your neck? isn't that a pretty sensitive area?"

"It was nothing i couldn't handle." He winks at me and my stomach flutters again at the sight.

"Do you have any?" He questions raising an eyebrow.

"No, i don't." I have always liked and wanted tattoos i just never knew what to get and im scared of making that sort of commitment to something so permanent.

He nodded before taking another drag of his cigarette and i watched has the muscles in his neck tensed as he breathed in the smoke that filled his mouth before releasing it back into the air.

"So you go to St Mary's?"

"yeah, how did you know?"

"i just transferred to St Lukes" Harry explained.

"Oh, right"

"So what's with you and Louis?" Harry smirks, knowing that I obviously wasn't in the mood to talk about it and it really wasn't any of his business.

"Nothing, he's just a douche-bag" I scoffed.

Harry let out a small chuckle.

"So you two havn't slept together?" Harry asked. Woah, he definitely wasn't shy with asking the personal questions.

"Of course not, not that it's any of your business"

"Why not?" I looked at Harry in disbelief that he just asked me that and even though he had a huge smirk plastered on his face i could tell he was intrigued.

"Because i don't want to have sex with him." I say as a matter of fact.

"right," he chuckled.

"Well that's good." he continued.

"and why is it good to you?"

"Because i want you to myself" He smiles a devilish grin, his dimples on full display.

"Wow! that was really smooth!," I laugh and he does too.

"Sorry to break it to you but I'm not having sex with you either Harry." I stand up, dusting the dirt and leaves off of my bum.
