The One

Chapter 18

When I reach the door as I am about to open it the hallway light turns on.

I panic and run to the living room to hide behind the bookshelf. I hear someone come down and walk into the kitchen. I come out still hiding to see who it is, its my mom. Shit, can she hurry it up.

My mother opens the fridge and graves some milk and walks back up stairs turning the light off. I wait 2 minutes and then gently turn the knob and walk outside.

I walk to my car and Harry is standing there in a black hoodie and black jeans, his hair combed back. I stare at how perfect he looks waiting for me.

"Ok i'm here what did you wanted to talk about?" I ask him.

"Can we go inside?"

"Are you kidding me, my mom almost caught me sneaking out, she would kill me if she saw me with you in the house."

He laughs. " You look beautiful without makeup," he says in the most gentle voice, I have never heard him talk like that, he is always rude.

I hide my face. "What did you wanted to talk about?" I ask him again.

"I just wanted to say i'm sorry for the way I acted earlier." Harry being sorry, I am shocked.

"You were hurting me and telling me to not talk to Zayn," I say in a loud voice.

"I know and i'm sorry, I just really don't want you to talk or hang out with him."

"But you guys are friends why wouldn't you want me to talk to him?"

"Don't ask just listen please Ariana, I beg you," he says making a puppy face.

I hide my smile and just look down. He catches me by surprise and pulls me close to him, putting his hands around my waist and kissing my lips. His mint scent fills my nostrils, and his tongue enters my mouth. I close my eyes and keep kissing him back. Bolts of fire are sent to my entire body.

"I love you," he tells me. I don't answer back and keep kissing him. Its so weird how hours ago I was pissed at him, and now I have totally forgot about what happened. I have to say, I am attracted to Harry, theres a part inside me that says I need him, I want him. I just met him what about 2-3 months ago, and it feels like I am in love with him, sounds crazy but I can't trust myself, maybe its just for now, maybe he is a distraction.

He then moves his lips and kissed my neck making me have goosebumps. I hold his hair pulling it, and kissing him back on the lips, those rosy pink lips.

He then pulls away. "I need to go," he says kissing my forehead.

"Ok," I say. He give me a last kiss on the lips and walks away. I stand in front of my car watching as he walks away.

I walk back in the house and head to my room. As I an laying on my bed his words come through my mind again "I love you" Harry said that? Maybe he wasn't thinking, I can't imagine Harry telling me that, after all he just met me. He hates me and is always rude to me since day 1.

Friday Morning

I wake up and check the time 7:15 am, ugh school. I really don't want to go, my dad will only be here for 2 days now and I really want to spend them with him. I stand from my bed and walk down to find my mother.

"Morning honey," says my mother as she prepares our breakfast.

"Mom, mommy, mother, best friend," I say.

"What do you want Ariana?" she asks me. She knows I want something.

"Mom, can I stay home today? Please?"
