Mistakes || H.S. ||

chapter 19

James finally pulled up to the front after an hour. When his Honda Acord pulled up, I jumped in the front seat. I decided to let Harry get in the back.

"Now, Zoe. Who's the curly headed fella in the back?" I blushed at the way he called him curly.

"That's my boyfriend, Harry. Remember that Christmas I asked for a Harry Styles cutout and you got it for me? Well that's the guy." I said while giggling.

James turned around and glanced at Harry during the red light.
Harry look frightened.

"Don't worry son, I'm just her favorite cousin." He said.

I could hear Harry breathe of relief.

"Wait, is that why you acted mad for the whole hour? You thought James was one of my friends or ex-boyfriends." I asked.

Harry gave me a look of 'are you serious' but, he said, "yeah.." Very quiet.

"Ewh gosh, no. She's my uncle's granddaughter and I've been her teacher before. We are just really close family." James said to Harry.

"Thank goodness." Harry said happily.

After that long car ride, we finally made it to my hometown of Chapmanville.

We pulled up to my house and I told James to just stay in the car that we can carry our own bags. Harry and I grabbed our stuff out of the trunk and walked towards the door, "Bye Zoe,
Come over tomorrow we are having dinner. Love ya!" James shouted.

"Okay, love you!" I said back.

When we entered the house, I could smell some barbecue. Uhh, I've missed this home cooking.

"Come on, we are gonna surprise them. Shhh." I said grabbing Harry's and intertwining our fingers.

We walked into the living room with the TV blaring.
"Surprise!!" I shouted.

My mamaw and papaw jumped outta of the chairs and giving me a bone crushing hug.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming, I would've invited Trey and all your friends over." Mamaw said.

"Uhh, mamaw. I'm not really on good terms with Trey." And I pointed at Harry.

"Goodness Gracious. Who is this handsome young boy." Harry smiled.

"I'm Harry, nice to meet you." And he gave my grandmother and papaw a hug. Awh.

"Wait a second, ain't he the direction boy? How the heck did you get with him?" My papaw said.

I laughed, Harry put his arm around my waist and I glared. "I have no idea, papaw. No idea, how I got so lucky." I kissed Harry's cheek.

"Ewhhh!!" I heard Braxton yell.

"Bubby!" I shouted and bent down to his height.

He came sprinting towards me and gave me a big hug. He started crying...

"Awh Braxton, don't cry. I'm staying this whole week! And I want you to meet somebody." Braxton looked up from crying in my shoulder and smiled.

"Hehe, it's that boy you like." I blushed.

"Hi little fella. Nice you to finally meet you." Harry hugged him too.
