I just want to say, this is my first fan fic so it may not be all that great but hopefully it will get better as it goes along! And honestly, I don't think this story will get many reads so I'll probably just writing for myself! This story is copyrighted. The only things I don't own are the characters and any songs that may be used. But anyway, to the story.. 

    Skylar's POV

     *BOOM*

     Lightening struck the power lines, and I was suddenly en-golfed in darkness. I sobbed some more as the rain continued to fall outside my window, I was home alone. My parents were on a business trip to London and my best friend, Harry was mad at me. The thunder boomed and I cried harder, even though I was 14 I still hated storms. Not only was the storm freaking me out but Harry and I had just had our biggest argument ever.

     Harry was my best friend, but I was in love with him too, not that I would ever let him know that. He had just started dating the school slut, Brittany. I tried to tell him that she was just using him for popularity but he didn't believe me. We were only freshman but Harry was already on of the most popular boys in school. He yelled at me when I told him that, Harry had never yelled at me not in all our 14 years of friendship.

    He scares me when he yells so I left his house and ran all the way home in the pouring rain, now I was sitting here crying to myself. Why was Harry being so weird? Why wouldn't he listen to me? Will this all blow over and we go back to being friends tomorrow? Why does Britta- my thoughts were interrupted by a noise coming from my kitchen. Great I'm home alone and now someone is trying to break in. Could my day get any worse?

  I could barely see so I just grabbed whatever I could reach, I think it was my hair straightener. I carefully walked down my stairs and braced myself for whatever was about to happen. I slowly made my way to the kitchen, weapon in hand. I jumped into the kitchen, "WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" I yelled into the darkness. I saw a figure and started swinging, "Ouch! Shit Sky! Cut it out!!" said I husky voice, wait I knew that voice.

  "Oh Harry! I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you, I thought it was a burglar. Wait, what are you doing here?" I stopped my rambling and realized that he wasn't supposed to be here, we're mad at each other. "I'm sorry, I just needed to come apologize for yelling at you earlier, I shouldn't have done that you were right. Please forgive me." Harry pleaded. "Haz, it's okay I can never stay mad at you," I said as I went to hug him. I loved his hugs, he always smelt so  good, wait is that weird that I smell him?

   "Wait, what do you mean I was right?" I said as I thought over what he had said. "About Brittany, she is just using me." Harry said looking at me. "But you're still with her?" I voice broke, no not now, don't start crying here it will ruin everything. "Oh my gosh Skylar are you crying?" Shit. "No. huh? What are you talking about?" I lied stupidly. "Sky, I've been you're best friend since you were born, I know you better than you know yourself." Harry said as he looked at me.

  Gosh, why does he have to look at me like that. He just makes me want to kiss his face off, but I can't one, he's my best friend. Two, He's still with with Mrs.Whore. Three, I'm a loser and everyone loves him. Harry and I may have been best friends all our lives, but everyone liked Harry more. In fact, Harry was my only friend. I have had a couple friends but they all turned out to be using me to get to Harry, then when it didn't work out or he rejected them they would blame it on me and go back to hating me. Not that I minded, I was never really into hanging out with girls. I was very independent, my parents were always away so I was used to just having Harry.

  "Sky?" Harry said and I snapped back to reality, where I was still holding onto Harry and staring into to his eyes. I blushed and pulled away "Sorry. You're eyes are just really pretty." I laughed lightly. Awkward much? "So I've been told, and why did you pull away, you know I love hugging you." Harry winked at me. Because every time I hug you it reminds me that I can't have you.. I thought to myself. Harry pulled me into another hug.

  "You really are beautiful Skylar.." Harry said as he looked down at me, I still hadn't hit my growth spurt and I was still really short. "You're just saying that cause I'm upset." I said and looked down. Harry tilted my chin up, "No, you really are. The most beautiful girl I know." He smiled at me, showing his gorgeous dimples. "What about Brittany?" I croaked again, I stopped the tears the threatened to fall. "I ended it right before I came here" He said, giving me another one of his award winning smiles.

   I couldn't help myself, I stood up on my tip toes and pecked his lips. "Thanks Haz." I looked up at him. "Why did you stop?" He asked. "What are you-" I was cut off by Harry's lips crashing onto mine. Our lips moved in sync, I'm kissing Harry. I can't believe it, the boy I used to make mud pies with. They boy that came to me with all his girl problems. The boy everyone wanted. The boy that I thought hated me an hour ago, was kissing me.

  Harry pulled away "You have no idea how long I have wanted to do that, or say this.. Skylar.. be my girlfriend?" I was in shock, I almost forgot to breathe. "Y-Yes!" I said trying not to sound too excited, I didn't want to think I was freak. "Thank you so much Skylar, I have wanted to ask you that for so long." Harry said as he leaned down to kiss me again.

So what do you think? (: Like I said I doubt anyone will read it but I will try to upload soon.
