Hadley's POV

Needless to say class was the usual AA introduction type shit.
"Hi I'm Hadley and I'm a student."
The class says " Hi, Hadley" so on and so forth.

I made it through AA 5 times and it was time for lunch. I headed towards the library alone, considering I had already told Lex that I wouldn't be having lunch with them and she didn't mind relaying the message to Morgyn our other main bitch. Considering Morgyn would be off behind the bleachers sucking face with her boyfriend, Brandon, she didn't mind and Lex said that she had to kick Zander's ass for using that pet name. As I make my way to the library after being lost for a while , I see Harry staring right into my hazel eyes and playing with his bottom lip, taking it between his thumb and his forefinger repeatedly. I trudge over to him suddenly shy, and look at the floor. He takes my chin between the two fingers that were just on his lips and looks down at me like he's searching for something. I believed he was going to say something when he grabs my hand and walks to what looks like an art studio.
"Hey, Carmella." Harry greeds the short blond lady who is wearing a smock that is covered in paint.
She look up from her painting only to nod and continue.
"H-i-i." I mutter feeling awkward.
She looks up and smiles and does not say one word, before continuing her aforementioned painting.
Once the awkward moment dies down Harry intertwines his long finger with mine and nearly pulls my arm out of its socket leading me to a glass door with a lock.
He reaches into his pocket with his hand that is not holding mine and pulls out a key unlocking the door. Harry flicks in a switch leading to a small set of stairs. We climb the stairs in unison, hands still intertwined we reach set of doors one across from the other. One door is labeled Mrs. Raines and the other is blank. He lets go of my hand and opens the door . Once he opened the door and turned the light on, I saw a couch and classic rock records sprawled all over the grey shag carpet. He touched the small of my back and leads me in to the room closing the door. He puts on "Pink Floyd" , and sits on the couch. I sit next to him on the edge of the couch , and he sits up and looks me in the eyes.
" Hads why are you so far away?" Harry asks concerned.
"Sorry." I whisper laugh and scoot into his arms.
He rolls up his sleeves to uncover a tattoo in script saying, " Elle ~ my first love" .
