When He Was Mine (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter Six - 'Temperamental Love'

So I know he doesn't like me now. For sure.

I couldn't let myself so close to him to have my heart broken again and again because he didn't feel the same way. Best friends was now out of the question. I knew I wouln't be able to help myself if he got as close to me as he had last night. Images of his face in mine flashed through my head as I tried to sleep the night he kissed that girl. Something about his eyes told a different story to his actions. I could usually tell straight away if a boys liked me but Harry was so hard to read. I grabbed my phone.

'INCOMING CALL

Harry♥'

Flashing up and disappearing on my screen. My phone was on mute and I had no intention of answering. I cringed at the little heart at the end. 5 missed calls now,..6..7...it was 10 by morning. Some calls were as late as 1 in the morning. I felt kind of bad but I wanted to make him feel bad for what he'd done.

It was Monday...exactly two weeks since me and Harry became friends. I thought this was exactly the right time for it to end too. It'd been fun while it lasted, we'd had a few laughs and cries. I was now ready to put everything behind me.

I met up with Kelly like I always did. I was ready to live life the same as I had before Harry had his influences. I settled in first lesson, got out my pen and took off my blazer. I could smell the boys before I saw them enter the room. The overwhelming smell of clean and powerful aftershave. I placed my pen to paper and started writing the date in my exercise book. '17th September' not long till my Birthday now, 14 days in counting. I planned to have a few of the girls around for a little party but nothing big ju...

"Lucy" a low voice boomed from above me.

I looked up from my book to see someone who was going to spoil everything.

"Is your phone off?" Harry asked throwing himself on the table in front of me.

"No, but you're crumpling my work" I protested.

"Oh" he stopped and looked at me in a confused fashion.

I stared at him intensely till he realised he was still sitting on my school book and he jumped off the table.

"Did you have any network connection last night? Like was it receiving calls and messages?" he said crouching down next to the table so we were now at the same level.

"Yes thank you" I said pretending to fiddle with paper so I didn't have to make eye contact.

I felt that familiar stare on my lips that he often did. I leaned my head on my palms, elbows on the table and covered my mouth.  He grasped what I was trying to do. He grabbed my hand and slowly pulled it away.

"Sorry I couldn't hear you with your hand in front of your li...mouth" he said still touching my hand.

I quickly snatched it away when I realised he nearly said lips. I knew he watched them.

"Harry just go away" I moaned. Maybe that was suppose to be said in my head.

He heard me loud and clear.

"Fine" he said throwing his bag on his shoulder and walking away with a sour face on.

The voice in my head was shouting him to come back but the words never made it out. I buried my head in my book. We didn't speak for the rest of the day. It went on for the rest of the week. I felt his cold stare stabbing me in the back in every class.

It's now Saturday! Putting Harry aside for a minute, Olivia was having a big 'get together' with everyone. I was so excited to just not have to think about Harry for once and be able to maybe even move on. I arrived pretty much on time in my cream dress that I actually felt nice in. I had made a real effort and I hoped someone, anyone would notice. The party had already started. Liv opened the door and grabbed me in her arms.
