Harry’s POV
When I finish gussying up in the mirror, I hear my doorbell ring. I do one last smile check in the mirror before I head downstairs to get the door. Everything looks good and I decide I am ready. I try to stay cool so I take my time going down the stairs. I get to the door, grab the door knob, take a deep breath and then I open it.
Me: Hey Beautiful (I say while giving her a hug)
Michelle: Hey!
I move out of the doorway so she can enter the house. As usual. She looks incredibly cute and I cannot take my eyes of her. It appears she's comfortable with me because she walks straight towards the living room and sits on the couch. I just follow her and take a seat on the other couch before we start laughing for no reason at all...
Me: So look who decided to initiate a conversation today (I laugh)
Michelle: I know! I was pretty proud of myself (She laughs)
Me: It wasn’t that hard was it?
Michelle: Are you kidding me! I think my exam was easier! (She chuckles)
Me: That’s pathetic Michelle!
Michelle: I know, I know!
We laugh at this for a while, then all of sudden, the smile on Michelle’s face disappears.
Michelle: So, I need to tell you something.
Me: What’s up? (I say while leaning over and resting my elbows on my knees)
Michelle: When I got back to my room last night. Sam saw the stuffed animal you won for me. She asked me where I got it from and I told her where all of us were last night. She didn’t really say anything to me but I could tell she was really mad. I just thought I should give you the heads up about everything.
Me: I wish you would’ve told me last night! She came over this morning and flipped out about it all!
Michelle: Really? She must have skipped her classes this morning. I’m sorry! I thought I had time before she approached you about everything.
Me: It’s not your fault. Don’t worry about it.
Michelle: Well….. I want details! What happened?! Are you guys okay?
Me: I honestly don’t know. I saw a really ugly side of her today that was a huge turn off. One, jealousy is a really ugly trait. Two, she came over unannounced to yell at me… IN THE MORNING. And three, she is already bugging me about goingsteady.
Michelle: What was she jealous about?
Me: You...
Michelle immediately has a face full of confusion and concern. I could tell she was starting to feel like the argument between Sam and I was her fault.
Michelle: Wha… what about me?
Me: You know what I said the other day when I asked you about Sam? I told you….. you would come before her and I ended up telling her that. She didn’t take it well.
Michelle: HARRY! (She yells while burying her head in her hands)
Me: She’ll get over it Michelle. She likes me too much not to.
I can tell Michelle feels really guilty. It’s time to drop this, and change the conversation.
Me: I have an idea. Be right back!
