When He Was Mine (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter Five - 'My Best Friend'

It's been a week since I 'went out' with Harry. I was bombarded with question after question by my friends on Monday morning.

*flashback*

"So how was your date?"

"Did you kiss him?"

"You'd be so cute together, just get married already!"

"Are you dating now?"

I whined "No, I've told you it wasn't a date, it was...."

"...just two people going out as friends" said my best friends mocking me as they finished my sentence.

"But you want more don't you?!"

"I guess"

*Flashback ends*

I lied, I wanted to be so much more than friends, I adored him. I was always one of those people who was scared of rejection, I hadn't had many...ok...I hadn't ever had a proper boyfriend. It was always a 'I like them but they don't like me or they like me but I didn't like them' kind of situation.

Harry was different though. I'd never felt this way about someone before in my whole life. I loved him more than anything....wait, did I? Maybe it was just love blinding me maybe I didn't love him more than anything. My emotions and feeling were like Algebra, hard to understand.

Me and Harry hadn't stopped texting since Saturday. He moved in front of me in Maths and sat next to me in Music because he 'couldn't see the board' from where he usually sat. The Detentions topped it all off. We were spending 6-7 hours together in person and at least 3 hours texting each day.

He was slowly but surely becoming my best friend. He came at a good time too. My friends were always busy with their soul mates and Harry filled the gap perfectly. It didn't change my feelings for him though! In fact I loved him even more than when I had started out. I just wish I knew what was going on in his head too. He never acted like their could be anything between us, he just acted like...well a best friend.

'So did anyone tell you about the town festival tomorrow?:) xxxxx'

'Yes Kelly told me about it yesterday, is everyone going?xxxxx'

'Yeah but it will end up being you and me again like always BEST FRIEND :D. You know everyone will 'pairs off' in their couples xxxxx'

'YAY BEST MATES :D and ikr :/ xxxxx'

I text as I jumped in front of my wardrobe hoping I'd have something to wear this time. I was distracted by my mum shouting from downstairs.

"Someone answer the door"

I sighed then trotted down the stairs. I looked out the little window and stuck out my tongue to the person on the other side.

"What do you want?" I said in a manly voice as I opened the door a crack.

The boy outside laughed then pushed open the door before pulling me in for a cuddle.

"Hi Harry" I mumbled as I hugged him. I quickly closed the door behind him. "So what's up?"

"I just wanted to see your house" he said before jogging upstairs. I shook my head as I put it in my hands. As I reached the top of the stairs Harry wasn't in sight. I pushed open my bedroom door and slowly walked in.

"Harry, where have you gone?" I said in major confusion. Just then a hand from under my bed wrapped around my ankle.

"Boo" yelled a deep voice. I screamed in surprise and pulled my foot away.

"You're just too easy to scare!" Harry laughed as he shuffled from under the bed and pulled himself to his feet.

"Don't do that, Harry" I said crossing my arms.
