Keep Holding On (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 4

Harry POV

I rushed to class after witnessing what I had just seen. I know she wasn't my girlfriend, so why am I acting like this? Clearly she had a boyfriend, a girl that beautiful had to have someone.

I'm not trying to sound jealous or anything, but I'm 100% sure she didn't have any feelings for him. You could see it in her eyes and her 'boyfriend' wasn't interested in her either, just her body.

I ignored Valerie for a few seconds and took her out of my head. The bell rang for class to start. I was focused on my notebook the whole time as she walked in. I looked up and our eyes met each others for a second, then I looked down.

She looked sad and disappointed.

Was she feeling bad for me?

The teacher began to play music in the back. "Classe bonjour" Ms.Walter started, which means 'good morning class'. After that she said a bunch of other stuff in french. I'm totally lost. I know I should know what she's saying by now, but I'm still clueless most of the time.

I was lost in my thoughts until a grumble snapped me out. It was coming from Valerie's stomach. I laughed at how she tried to stop it. She saw me laugh and her face turned immediately red as a tomato.

I forget about before. I guess we could start as friends...for now.

Valerie POV

We were taking a test so the whole period we had to be silent. I get so nervous that my stomach going to growl, which of course makes it start growling.

The fact that Harry could hear my stomach growling makes me want to run away and never come back.

Monday, April 11

Only 49 days left for graduation. When the day comes for me to leave I will never look back, except for Harry. I'm starting to feel something  towards him that I have never felt with Aaron. Maybe is because Harry makes me feel more loved and beautiful and Aaron just makes me feel loved for my body.

I had another test in last period and they moved us to the auditorium. I got to the hall, my books in hand carrying my bag. I turn and see Harry getting to his seat then end up sitting next to him.

"Valerie!" he called.

"Hey, I guess I sit right here" I said putting my books on the table and my bag on the floor.

"Great, now we can talk more and get to know each other better" He grinned. We talked a while then it was time to take the test.

We finished early, but we weren't aloud to leave until everyone finished. We could walk and talk silently so I grabbed my bag and head for the door.

"Going out already?" Harry asks from behind me.

I whirl around so fast my bag slams against his leg. "Oh!" I didn't see him follow me and I just smacked him with my bag. "Sorry!"

"No worries. I thought we were trapped here until the bell."

"We are. I was just trying to make a break for it."

"Sounds scandalous. I'm in."

"Nice." I throw a glance at the teacher outside the hall. "If you distract him, I can sneak out the far door."

"Distract him how?"

"With a ruckus."

"Right. A ruckus." Harry nods thoughtfully. "Allow me to ponder the nature of said ruckus."

"Got it!" he says. "Ill make this sudden commotion like someone just slipped on the floor coming in. That should buy you a few seconds. If you sneak your way over to the door first, you'll have enough time to slip out"
