I woke up to my phone flashing on the pillow next to me. It was about 4 o'clock in the morning and the house was silent. I must have fallen asleep about 7 o'clock the night before because I could not get back to sleep however hard I tried.

I sat up in my pitch black room and pulled my phone to my face.

'Oh I don't know, Harry?;) xxx'

It was Eliza this time. Her text reminded me that yesterday wasn't a dream and that I was going out with Harry on Saturday.

I had about 4 hours to get ready for school that morning. I decided to make an effort for once, applying a little more makeup and wearing my medium length blonde hair out.

I sat with Sara and Kelly in our French lesson. Harry hadn't been over to talk to me or anyone of my friends all day which was a little disappointing. Talk of the devil. I spotted his bouncy curly hair and Louis's side fringe as soon as they entered the classroom.

I caught eye contact with his beautiful green emeralds. He looked away instantly. I looked down at the desk in shock. What was up with him all of a sudden? Why did he seem as though he didn't want to talk to me?

The Teacher called for silence and started taking the register.

'Eliza'

'Oui Madame'

'Lucy'

'Oui Madame'

'Niall'

'Oui Madame'

'Zayn'

'Oui Madame'

'Liam'

'Oui Madame'

'Olivia'

'Oui Madame'

'Kelly'

'Oui Madame'

'Louis'

'Oui Madame'

'Sara'

'Oui Madame'

'And Harry'

'Oui Madame'

Harry had a strange tone to his voice like he was completely fed up. In fact come to think about it he might have been avoiding me all day! He sat on the other side of the class in Maths and he didn't even come to Music where he sits on my table. I turned to Kelly.

"What do you think is up with Harry?" I asked as quietly as possible.

"I don't know, why?" she said shrugging her shoulders.

"You mean because he looks like he's been in a mood all day?!" Sara slid in the comment from my left hand side.

"I though it was just me" I said "But just look at him"

Kelly turned her head for a couple of seconds then turned it back around it face us.

"Yeah, I see what you mean" she said picking up her pen.

"Sara, Lucy, Kelly, quiet please, get on with your work" the teacher mumbled not taking her eyes of her computer screen.

I flashed back to this morning at break time. I'd smiled at him but he hadn't smiled back, he just looked right through me almost. I presumes that he hadn't seen me but now thinking about it he ignored me, on purpose.

I was getting very worked up. What had I done? Why was he doing this? Was he ashamed to talk to me in front of the school? Wasn't I good enough?

"Madame, can I go the toilet please" I said as my hand shot up.

"Hurry up" she said as I grabbed my blazer and bag and sped out of the room.

I didn't really need the toilet I just needed some fresh air to think this through...

I hurried down the two flights of stairs and out through the fire exit at the back of the building. I lied my blazer on the ground and sat cross legged on the floor, back against the wall.

I ran my fingers through my hair pushing back my side fringe which is kinda what I did when I was stressed. I mentally revisited everything that happened this morning to see if I had done anything wrong.

The sun was in my eyes as a tall figure appeared in front of me. I squinted trying to see who it was. BUSTED! A teacher must have found me! Oh no now I'm in trouble.

It wasn't a teacher. It was the boy himself. Harry.

"Can I sit down here?" he said pointing next to me. I nodded and turned my head the other way.

Does he think it's acceptable to ignore me all day then be so nice to me?

I jumped when I felt his shoulder next to mine.

"I knew you'd be here, you always come here" he said turning his head to look at me. In confusion I pushed back my hair like I'd done before he had arrived.

"And you always do that too don't you!" he said smirking, "It's cute".

My heart felt like it had turned to ice it was that frozen. I held my breath. I was buzzing yet really angry now. Why is he being nice now we're alone?

"Why have you been ignoring me all day?!" I snapped.

Harry's facial expressions instantly changed. "Wait just a second it was you who didn't text me back!" he said sternly.

"Ooh" I said as the realisation hit me. I'd been fangirling so much I hadn't even replied to him.

"I'm so sorry I feel asleep and I completely forgot!" I said touching his arm. His eyes shot straight down to look at where I'd touched him. I slowly moved my hand away from him.

"Actually I thought you were playing hard to get" he said laughing. We laughed for a while. It was nice!

"Coming back to French?" he said jumping to his feet and holding out his hand.

"Yeah" I said grabbing it firmly
