Chapter 9: Maybe, Just Maybe

Sorry for the late update! :)

“I’m tired of this game Harry.” I whine and put down my superhero’s cape.

“Then what do you want to play?” He asked as he stops running and walk towards me.

“Hmm…” I said as I touch my chin and think of any game I want to play.

“I know! I know! Prince and Princess!” I said with a glint of excitement on my voice.

“I want to be the princess!” I shouted and raise my hand.

“Then I’ll be your prince!” Harry said as he put both of his hands on his hips.

“For a prince like you, you don’t look like one and most of all you don’t act like one.” I smirk and laugh at him.

“Hey! What’s that suppose to mean?” He pouts and cross his arms, as he sounded offended.

“I do look like one; see I have my own crown.” He said as he showed me a crown made of paper.

“That doesn’t mean you’re close on being a prince.”

“Oh really? So who do you think is the best prince huh?” He asked as he leaned his face close to me with a smirk on his lips.

“Uh…uhm..it’s none of your business! That’s top secret!” I said and back off away from his face.

“10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Come out, come out wherever you are!” He shouted and started finding me. I hide behind the bushes so that I can both see him if his near me and it’s a really good hiding place.

“Where are you Flor?” He asked with tiredness in his voice.

“Come out! Now!”He shouted again.

After that, Harry was gone trying to find me. I sighed in relief, thinking that he won’t find me on my hiding spot but I was wrong. A loud shriek escapes my mouth when he tried to scare me, and it absolutely work. Typical.

“Harry! You scared me!” I told him, patting my chest where my heart is located.

“You should’ve seen your face; you look like a scaredy cat!”He laughed, tears brimming on his eyes. Soon though, I join him. We both laugh in hysterics till our stomach hurts.

“So you have a crush on Jimmy aye?” He said with a smirk on his lips. Jimmy was one of Harry’s mates. Harry knew about this since one of my girlfriends’ talk too much and speaks too loud, and I guess Harry was eavesdropping when we’re on this girl talk about ‘boys.’

“No.” I said quickly as I sat beside him on the swing which is vacant.

“Oh, really?” He asked not giving up. That look on his face, reads that he’s planning on to something. Something stupid, something only Harry’s mind would think.

And I don’t like how he thinks.

“Hey mate!” A familiar yet sweet voice said. I turn around and saw Jimmy with his other friend walking their way towards us. I can’t believe this!

I gave Harry one of my glares. I swear to god, if Harry told him that I have a crush on him, I’ll kill that curly boy!

“Flor here has something to tell you.” Harry told Jimmy as they are both in front of us, sitting on the grass.
